page 11. FEN: Enjoyed Fassbeinder article. Poem on 4e was good too. FAN-DANGO 3-A: Hope to bring this matter to a head soon. Whatever the outcome, it needs prompt settlement. MIDGE: Interesting, PHOTO: Very interesting. Should go far toward accomplishing its aim. COVENTRY SAMPLE: Sounds good, Think we'll risk a dollar if plans for its publication have not changed, CAUSTIC SQUARE BULLSHOOTER: If ridicule had been effective, Degler should be clear out of Fandom and completely forgotten by now. DECIMAL CLASSIFICATION: We haven't time now to compare this with Speer's in the same mailing. Perhaps we can consider this subject in a future issue of En Garde. PEOPLE STORIES: Lovely cover, interesting material. Interior back cover pic suggests a horse on somebody. THE F.A. LEAN 3: Better late than, never, say we. THE PEACE WITNESS: We don't approve collective homicide either, but we gravely doubt that the more spread of Pacifistic propaganda will ever really be effective. What is needed is to open our eyes and face some unpleasant truths about the actual cause of wars. Then do something positive about it. Are the majority of the world's peoples capable of that? TOWARD YESTERDAY: Rather enjoyable issue on the whole. Hope that covers everything If we've missed anybody, please accept our apologies And may we remark that this was certainly a huge Mailing—something we greatly approve. When we can't think of anything clever to say in these interlineations we wonder... THIS 'N' THAT We, Al Ashley, have pretty well run the draft classification gamut now. For a long time we were 3A, Then.we were reclassified to 1A. Then we went to Detroit for our examination---and ended up 4F. Mavbe someday we'll write up the story of that exam. Anyway, the result came pretty much as a surprise to us. In case anybody wonders why we were rejected, we herewith end their wonderings. It was because of Bilateral Assymetry, Quadratic Podex, and Cranial Varicosity. Neil De Jack seems to have gone across. Got a change of address card the other day giving APO address. Haven't heard from Dalvan Coger since he visited us on furlough a few weeks ago. Hope he hasn't gone too.
