MFS BULLETIN Volume Three - Whole Number Fourteen - Jan 11, 43 - Number Two Frank Robinson writes to report that through much hard work, etc, a typer has finally been brought, and that Parsec will now definitely appear. The cover by Ronald Clyne (litho'd) has "Book of the Dead" in the upper left corner, but this piece of material will not be used. Material needed! - jlg Also definitely scheduled, is McElfresh's science-weird-fantasy poetry Anthology, although not for a while yet. Financial matters and time are the only onstructing factors at the time - jlg New Golden Gate Futurian Society officers are as follows: President: Tom Wright; vice-president: Bill Watson; secretary: Everett Wyers; - the next meeting to be held at the home of Wyers. Write-up later. - Joe Fortier Friday, December 18th, saw three old-time MFS members together again when Pvt Rod Allen surprised Morrie Dollens and myself with an unannounced visit to our Santa Monica address. Old times were discussed, discussions raged, and everybody was happy. Saturday afternoon (Red had a three-day pass) we took in a football game - USC vs Navy. Saturday evening found us in Slapsie Maxie Rosenblum's Nite Club, and Rod was ticked to meet Maxie personally, receiving a bone-crushing handshake and a hearty slap on the back from the movie-actor. Sunday-am after taking fotos by an old wrecked clipper ship on the beach, we saw Rod off, after he promised to make an attempt to get into town over New Year's. - P Bronson, Stf D Steps are finally being taken to complete the long-ago proposed MFS History, which has lain around in the back of the MFSers minds for quite some time. The booklet will probably amount to about 30 pages - will be mimeographed - and distribution is not definitely settled. The write-ups will probably be done by Sam Russell and Gordon Dickson, providing they can get the necessary information and find the necessary time. - jlg Another fanzine that deserves plugging is Equinox Errant, being a newsletter of The Rocketeers, hectographed at 516 W 140th St, New York City, by Frank McCourt. It's done, apparently, something on the order of Futurian War Digest, although no member in this first ish contributes any material. The magazine, in all, consists of 2 legal-size hectographed pages (hectored very well, incidentally) of addressees and names of the various rocketeer members, news concerning them and relevant information. There's no price attached, and perhaps it's not even for sale, but I'd suggest you inquire. - jlg Dick Wright, former fan until hooked by the clutching maw of marriage, threw a terriff party New Year's Eve in collaboration with
