Deploring attacks on grammar be g made throughout the nation, Dear mith said that "unless future de slopments and more convincing evi snce prove that it is best to give uj ie teaching of grammar either ir hole or in large part, and until th< >ponents of grammar have a satis ictory substitute to offer, it is time >r those favoring it to stop apologiz Ig and to begin fighting back. "The pendulum has swung too far.' Dean Smith said he favored "the 11cer, traditional teaching of gram ar as an organized body of classi ed1 knowvledge about language. As great observational science, dealing ith the facts of langpage, grammar ould seem to deserve a high place the curriculum." Students who have had formal in ruct ion ini grammar "not only know ore English to begin with but also ni learn more thoroughly and faster the course proceeds," Dean Smith clared.
