[Prof. Levine]

The article about Kitniyos was written by Rabbi Tzvi Rosen, Editor 
Kashrus Kurrents, who took two years of high school math with me back 
in the late sixties when I taught math at the Yeshiva High School of 
Greater Washington while working on my PhD thesis. Of course, then he 
was Harry Rosen! YL
