4 ECLIPSE BABBLINGS FROM A STRAIGHT JACKET This here colyum being mine, I gotta think up something to put in it. First, I've got a little question for 4E: If the Chicago convention is called the Chicon, and the Denver convention the Denvention, what would you call a Detroit convention? A Detrovention, or a Condroit? Up at Doc Smith's I heard tell about a Mr. Harry Legs. I wonder who he could be. He sent me this picture. Like it? [IMAGE] Well, well, I thot u noe who I was - I coud give u a hint - but i wont. HAIR-E Another thing, Bridges wouldn't let me do much of the Science Fiction quiz, so----I've some questions to ask. 1. WeinbauManuscript: Dawn of Flame was written by (a) Ed Earl Repp (b) Palmer, (c) a nut, (d) Weinbaum. 2. One of Science-Fiction's artists is (a) Frank Are All, (b) Of All the Gall, (c) Tootsies Gun Mall. (d).. Palmer. 3. Kimball Kinnison is (a) Ed Earl Repp, (b) A.W.P.A. worker, (c) Palmer, (d) Hairy Legs (Harry Legs' brother). If you can answer these questions, dear Reader, you are a fan of the first water---and ought to be drowned in it! Something is in order for the preservation of science fiction, and that is----a promotion for Sargent Saturn. If he's been roving space as long as he says he has, I think he should be promoted to give room for newcomers. I move we attempt to have him promoted to the rank (he is already) of Captain of the head. Any seconds? (My, my, that's just what I sad at the last dinner I was at.) Here is a sad story for readers of Amazing: There once was a man from Nantuckett, Who was drafted but tried to duck it. But he was caught and then He was put in the pen And has everafter been tortured by reading Amazing. how sad, how sad. I wonder if Adam Link will come to his aid? Well, I've gotta leave, remember: MY BACK YARD IN 91! Sargent Stinko
