28 * * * Banshee worth the expense of lihoing. Norton nude isn't bad, either. Liked the Gizmoe thing, too--the artist is obviously a follower of George McManus. FAN-DANGO -- To emulate the Rover Boys, "Hurrah for Slan Center!" I think Slan Center would be practical, but present plans preclude any possibility of my participating in such a project (isn't that alliteration a masterpiece?). And Laney has labelled VOM as indecent! What would the reaction to any normal person, on reading the Slan Center article? EN GARDE -- Cover the best yet--her is a nude to which no one could object. Ah--the true story of the "Exclusion." Have waited a long time for such an exposé. Hope we see more of the little fillers scattered here 'n' there through the issue in times to come. WAILINGS FANDOM HOUSE has taken a third member, Raymond Washington, Jr. Not that we're bent on a Vulcan-like expansion--oh, definitely not; we will, on the other hand, remain exclusive at all costs--by Muscles and I both feel that Raym would complete a perfect trio....Incidentally, chum Marlow arrived in Schenectady just in time to be a big help on the production of this ish. Thank you, Mr. Marlow.... Thank you, too....Millard's article was sent me for BEBULA, the newsie I couldn't keep alive. Though it is late, I think it is still of great interest..... The "Behind the Editorial Door" that Spencer's fantale is a pendant to appeared in the third LEPRECHAUN... Though I have recently become strongly opposed to the type of poll represented by Speer's article, I suppose most of you will be interested in the results. I took them directly from a Juffus letter, sans editing--not my usual custom, but I had to register protest in some way....Parody that it is, think about "Raymeses" as being an actual picture of a future fandom... Hm?,,, "The FAPA FOrum" this time is representative of what I want in the future, but contributors need not confine themselves to discussing the FAPA itself.... The first pesron to discover where in typing the issue I ran out of correction fluid will be heartily sneered at....Any comparatively good headings are by Marlow, others by Shaw....And isn't the green ink gruesome? Editor Shaw CELEPHAIS -- At last, paramount fiction in a fanzine. What next? BROWSING -- AS always, informative. I'd be interested in seeing the discussion anent "strangest story you've ever come across" further expanded. BLITHERINGS -- Don't like so much the weird abbrns. About the Editorial Statement: surely, sir, you must be joking: you prefer Steinbeck to Repp! And Tolstoy to Verne! Tsk! (I assume you've read none of Repp's westerns. If you had then you positivel wouldn't say such a dreadful thing.) Yea, Astounding! BEYOND -- The cover--Me gusta mucho. Coward's Flight reminds me of a story in Future--Ross Rocklynne's "The Creator." That confused me too. The fable is "cute," to steal an adjective from the Hermit; Norm's introduction added much to my enjoyment of the tale. Didn't care much for A Tale of Eden. AGENBITE OF INWIT -- I'm unacquainted with that portion of fan history with which TTatGG deals in the main, but I find myself enjoying it in spite of that fact. I liked the second Lovecraft volume. at last---the end
