(17) LEZ LETTERS Our readers speak that which ... you do not have a mind, we presume? A.L. Schwartz: "Degler was thinking of Amazing Stories. (March-May ish) Send the prize gobboon immediately. Joe Fann is really H.G. Hedgecliff. He'za friend of mine." Dorchester, Mass. Edwin Counts: "Got my copy of LeZ today and I want to say it is a darn good mag. Only one thing is wrong with it - no "Poor Pong's Almanac" and nothing by Hoy Ping Pong. Those features used to be plenty amusing, so why not more? Those LEZ-ETTES, and the idea of putting fandom on the map really good. Who is hell is Yngvi? Please let me in on this before I bust a button. Millard finally fell and read the mss for Doc Smith's new Lensman story. Evans got the rough draft with all the comments and corrections on it. (The lucky stiff!)" Battle Creek. LeZ sez: Is this chap pulling our leg? What does he mean, we haven't had anything by Pong lately? Listen chum, we have readers bellyaching for an escape from Pong! About the "Almanac" ... Pong is currently trying to sell that to a newspaper syndicate, in a slightly altered form. So you are not apt to see it here. And Yngvi? Why, everybody knows he is a louse. Rajocz: "Just as I had almost recovered from the effects of receiving Le zombiE steadily for the last year, Le zombiE begins to appear again with some regularity. It's a drug, that's what it is. Furthermore, it's humerous and something I must have. After all, when I die, I don't want to be shunned by other zombies and have them say: "He never got the official bulletin, Le zombiE!" What must I do to receive Le zombiE? I must send some money; at least so says Le zombiE number 37. This is terrible! Even death does not free one from the need of money." -Scranton, Penna. LeZ sez: We suggest, if you figger on becoming a zombie soon, that you arrange with local authorities to distribute photo-stat copies of your death certificate. Otherwise we will continue to bill you. Elmer Perdue: "Shame on you for swiping the O Henry bars!" Rock Spring, Wyo. Lez-sez: They wern't OHenry bars, they were easter eggs, and it was not I who did the swiping, it was ex-fan Korshak. H.C. Koenig: "Why in hell can't you make up your mind. First you return a thin dime to me -- and then you demand fifteen cents for some issues of a magazine called Le Zombie. I've always been a sucker for these new magazines; so here's the dough. Let's see just what kind of a magazine you think you are getting out." - New York City Lez-sez: (quote) Considering the source, the following ((above)) is complimentary in the extreme! (unquote). Thank you Southern Star, you took them there words right out of our dictionary! LEZ-ETTES chapter 1: Beetle-men chapter 2: Betelgeuse chapter 3: Beetle-juice LEZ-ETTES chapter 1: Spaceship chapter 2: Meteor chapter 3: You're it! LEZ-ETTES chapter 1: Explorer chapter 2: Moon chapter 3: No crackers LEZ ETTES chapter 1: Spacehound chapter 2: Sun chapter 3: Hot-dog!
