Page Eight MSA BULLETIN April 1940 "OUR VIEWS" 10 Lowell Ct. Lewiston, Me. Howdy Jerry, I'll make myself at home, sure enough. I'm sorry to hear that Negative Narratives is to be cancelled, but I certainly hope it will come out later. I was surprised to hear that there were so few members. There must be quite a number of Scientifiction readers besides those already known, else the Scienctifiction mags on the newsstand wouldn't disappear so quickly. I have about fifty back issues, but they are only two, three, and four years old..... By all means, let's have some of those superb M.S.A. stickers. (And now, he's a member!) Larry [D--be?] "---and THEIR'S" Red Bank, N.J. Editor: MSA Bulletin:- [?m] in receipt of your note of acceptance. It's rather encouraging after some of my brushes with the almighty snobs and commercialist of super-fandom. I'll appreciate any changes you make in the "Thing". The title would be a good place to begin with. Shortly comes a disconnected attack on editors who fill the backs of their mags with "goody-goody" letters...if the coffee holds out. (Evidentally the coffee didn't, for we haven't received this article yet. Your story will be coming up soon. gwm. Jacques (Dean) HARRY BATES RETURNS Mar. 31: Harry Bates, editor of the original Astounding Stories of Super-Science, who authored two well-taken novelettes in the Tremaine Astounding, returns to stf. in the July issue of TWS with a lead novel entitled, "The Experiment of Dr. Sarconi". .....from the March 31st issue of SCIENCE FICTION WEEKLY...... We learn also from the same issue of SFW that Ted Carnell, prominent British fan has just been appointed editor of a new English sft. mag! The title is set as NEW WORLDS and Carnell promises it will be on the same them as AST in this country. According to our figures, Ted is the fifth fan to receive an editorial position in the professional publishing field. Van Onlooker Says: Didn't you think that Paul's cover on the April FFM looked like an escape from a "comic" magazine? If that's what the fans want from Frank, they can save a nickel by buying Superworld Comics-- or sumpin! "CRIMES OF THE YEAR 2000" Have you heard of this unique series of stories by a well known stf. author? The chances are you haven't. Explanation next issue -formula- 21 days plus date of BULLETIN schedule equals actual public'n.
