page 2. ".....WITH JAUNDICED EYE." THE PHANTAGRAPH: Those glorious covers cause the contents to pale into insignificance --- as some of it was. WILL DAW please explain the method whereby one may boot another out of Fandom? On second thought,perahaps it is better unexplained -- better for all of us -- EACH ONE of us. The poetry was good -- some of it very good. Lot's have more of those covers, DAW. THE MADMAN OF MARS: To whom does the title refer, Forry? Is our dreadful suspicion justified? APOLOGIA: Perhaps he should. Seems to be a case of sneaking in through the cellar window. At least he got it in soon enough to be included in the mailing, which is more than some peo........ FANTASY FICTION FIELD: After considering all the transpiration we caused by the effort involved in producing EN GARDE, we agree with the rest. Unger should not be let off so easy. He should put out a special mag for FAPA. INSPIRATION: We always enjoy reading Lynn's stuff whether we agree with it or not. However, judging by a letter just received from him we may not hear so much from Lynn for awhile. We quote from his letter: "It's pretty nice here,and I like this camp better than the last one even if living conditions are rougher. This is the final training base and I expect to be here for about five weeks. Soon after that comes a boat ride, and it's unlikely that I'll be able to get back to Michigan until this thing is over." "We don't have much spare time, working seven days a week, as well as some night. I've been out of touch with Fandom except for letters from Battle Creek, or from Kuhn or D.B.Thompson. As far as I know, I'm the only fan in Florida, or at least in this part of it." Lynn's address is: Pvt. Lynn B. Bridges 876th Chemical Co., A.B. Sarasota-Bradenton A.A.B. Sarasota, Florida CALIFORNIA MERCURY: Awfully happy to hear that 2J has changed his mind, and that some statements in this issue no longer entirely apply. Joe's writing ability would be sorely missed were he to completely drop his fan activities. SCI-FIC VARIETY: Always good, but we like it better with more of Tucker's own raving, and fewer guest-writers. Lowndes' Crow & Curry was very welcome, though. ((And here is where we achieve time-travel. Naturally this is being written some time before the mailing out of the June FAPA. Still we shall make comment on a certain item in the Sci-Fic Variety in this mailing. In the magazine in question,Tucker gives voice to certain remarks about our wife. Let us hasten to add that we are in no manner offended. But we find great difficulty in suppressing a smile at his naive cock-sureness. Did it never occur to the noble Pong tht the "look of awe" he observed may have merely
