page 5. it off onto the other guy. They're just lazy, not suspicious. READER AND COLLECTOR: Glad to see this again---and such a nice large issue, too. Robert Butman's article was extremely interesting and I look forward to Chapter II. Most amusing thing in the whole mailing was your plaintive complaint about the "almost hiss". One can easily imaging your feelings. FANTASY JACKPOT: Despite my dislike for most fan-fiction, I really enjoyed "The Stone". Also liked Mike Fern on the Hawaiian legends. Odd that he's never given us the benefit of his knowledge of such hitherto unknown, at least to me.

Although it may be the stiffer activity requirments will make room for the present Waiting List fairly rapidly, we would soon reach a new equilibrium, and be faced with another long Waiting List. Applications have been coming in rather fast, too, and it may even be that the List never will decrease appreciably without raising the limit. Yeah, I favor uppin it a little. WALT'S WRAMBLINGS: Bawdiness, books, and a new type binding for the replacement of staples. ALLEGORY: This I enjoyed very much. It was well done, and provided a lot of fun picking out various fen from behind the disguise. Suggested much to consider. SUSTAINING PROGRAM: In view of how you felt after completing this issue's section of reviews, let me help to justify your effort by
