[line break] [centered] THE STAFF Editor------------------------Henry Andrew Ackerman Art Editors---------------Meredith, Henry, and Geore Fan Activity----------------------Claudius Printer-------------------------Henry Andrew Ackermann [line break] [centered] SCIENCE -------FICTION-------- BRIEFS Gerry de la Ree, Jr. has sold his first story, a 1,500 word short-short, "Triumph Of Time" to Eddy Herrin of Fawcett Publications. Is George Wetzel still alive and kicking? Is that magazine, "The Universal Hound" [underlined] ever going to appear? Do you long for that day, far in the future, when man will travel around the universe from planet to planet? Would you like to see the earth from space, as if you were in a rocket ship returning from a jaunt to Mars? A part of the U.S. Government has now made it possible for you to do so. One of the most popular of the new exhibits just opened by the authoritative Smithsonian Institute in Washington shows the view from the control cabin of such a space ship. You can see the instruments and navigating charts of the pilot, and through a large port, the earth, slowly revolving against a background of stars that possess the brilliance and color they would show if seen from outside the atmosphere. When rocket ships come the control cabin may or may not look anything like this. This department's nomination for "Successor to Pluto" is "Fantasia", the fine, high-grade fmz published by Lou Goldstone, George Cowie and Borrie Hyman. If interested, write to 269 Sixteenth Avenue, San Francisco, California. Did you know that "Hymn To Sata" is the "Weirdest Song of 1941?" "Strange Fruit" was the winner of that title in 1940.
