[[underline]] HORIZONS. [[/underline]] Nice issue; at least, it is very. comment-worthy this time. For your information, this "no known railroad in the United States" has reference to the deal in which I took over the Chauvenet prone collection. I lived in Clarkston at the time, but our rr center as Lewiston, Idaho. Though I made much of my living dealing with freight shipments, I was so excited about getting the mags that I forgot to give a freight address. This resulted in a most frustrating extra trip to the deopt on the part of Mr. Chauvenet Sr. [[underline]] Xenca, [[/underline]] though a very good magazine, is scarcely any reason for us to rush into NAPA. I am in my second year of membership in this organization, and fail to see much in it for the average fan. There are, however, a number of thoroughly worthwhile contacts to be made therein; if enough of you are interested to drop me a postal requesting it, I'll very gladly make up a list of their addresses, together with suitable comments about them, and include it in the next [[underline]] Fan-Dango. [[/underline]] "Poon town for labor" [[underline]] does [[/underline]] refer to unions, and I question harry's underlying attitude as reflected here. But I've stated my views on this subject through FAPA already; they are unlikely to change; so I shall move on to greener pastures. The article on education came as a welcome surprise. It will interest you, Harry, to know that my own article on the subject was originally intended to highlight this issue; however, the combination of a lack of time and the acquisition of the excellent article by FJA caused me to postpone the final revision. It's coming soon, though. ----oo0oo---- [[underline]] CALIBAN. [[/underline]] I am bitterly disappointed in Larry's [[underline]] "Statement". [[/underline]] No possible reason can exist for Shaw's disqualifying himself on this fine opportunity to take a decided stand on a matter of interest to all fandom. Larry must have an opinion on Degler one way or the other; to my mind it is his duty to express it through the use of his ballot. The fact that he published the Speer paper has no more bearing or the case than the fact that the name of Shaw was at one time rather freely bandied around in various CC publications. ----oo0oo---- [[underline]] BLACK AND WHITE [[/underline]] is well worthwhile; my previous FD set forth so thoroughly my views and convictions on the matter of racial prejudice that I do not wish to comment further on the subject until I see what response I may elicit in the next mailing. ----oo0oo---- [[underline]] WALT'S WRAMBLINGS. [[/underline]] The cover is utterly utter. It is one of the most fornchly pluebliating items ever to gladden the Laney orb's of vision. Air-brush, take a back seat! ... The reprinting of Vincent Starrett and other top-flight critics is a thoroughly worthy venture, and makes [[underline]] Waddy [[/underline]] even more worthwhile than ever. ----oo0oo---- READER AND COLLECTOR. Nothing else in the mailing came even close to this masterpiece. The only thing I didn't approve of 100% was the fact that this material didn't land in [[underline]] The Acolyte [[/underline]], and after all the main thing is to get it published. If any succeeding FAPAzine tops this one, it too will probably be published by HCK. ----oo0oo---- [[underline]] BANSHEE. [[/underline]] A very excellent effort. More, please. ----oo0oo---- [[underline]] STAR-STUNG. [[/underline]] Hyper, even though I dislike blank verse and tend towards being very conservative along poetical lines. This pamphlet is, however, a worthy companion to the excellent stuff once published by Joquel, and is easily #2 item in this mailing. **************************************************** [[underline]] Fan-Dango [[/underline]] is published quarterly for the Fantasy Amateur Press Association by Francis T. Laney, 1104 S. Georgia, Los Angeles 15. Any resemblence to a fanzine is purely coincidental.
