IMAGINATION! #3 Dec 37 3 FANTASCIENCE FLASHES! "Dreadful Sleep" by Jack Williamson will be the next serial in Weird Tales following "The Hairy Ones Shall Dance". Gans T. Field, author of WT's serial starting Jan, also has submitted "Black Drama" to Wright. Manley Wade Wellman has written 2 new ones for Ast. "Beyond Annihilation" is by Henry Kuttner, now out at TWS. "Cuddles", as he affectionately is calld by his friends, will have a 2 pt tale, "Thunder in the Dawn", in the Apr-May 38 issues of WT. Roy A. Squires 2d is now Editor of Unique. A forthcoming Bloch offering in WT, which we presume another Egyptale, will be "Eyes of the Mummy". Ray Bradbury, localite, has written "Among the Metal Gods", aimed at Ast. 4SJ just saw THINGS TO COME for 10th time! Raymond Scott, Jehovah of Jazz, newly has composed "Celebration on the Planet Mars". "Are We Civilized?" --Peace picture--shows Earth's birth as a solar spectacle, several shots of the Jurassic Juggernauts from the famous old prehistoric film "Lost World". To Herr Herbert Haussler, IMAGINATION!'s Deutschland Cor-respondent & the only known member of the SFL in that country, on 1st Oct was born a son, whom his father has named "Wolfgang Herbert". How-ever one extends heartiest congratulations in his language, we wish them to our fellow fan across the Fanta-sea. At any rate, he'll under-stand the Esperanto, which Erdstelulov informs us is: "Plej elkorajn gratulojn!" (pronounced "Play elkor'ein grah-two'loin".). Introducing! IMAGI-NIK-NAX: From the Fantascience Correspondence Files of Forrest J Ackerman. An Informative Filler Feature. Some may have forgotten since the immortale apeard nrly a decade ago, but when Interplanetaryarn Ex-traordinary SKYLARK OF SPACE by Edward E Smith (?), Ph.D, was published ea pt was preceded by the info: "In Collaboration with Lee Hawkins Garby". Who was LHG? What did he or she have to do with the development of the classic? "Skylark" Smith supplys the ansrs: "She was the wife of a very dear friend of mine---Carl Garby was my roommate in college during the years 1908-12. He was a Ph.D. in physical chemistry (soudns funny, but he was more of a physicist than a chemist). Unfortunately, however, he died a few years ago /befor '32/; and since I left the Government service in 1919, whereas he stayed in it until his death, and Mrs. Garby is still living in Washington, neither he nor she are able to collaborate with me any more. I wish they were. If it had not been for her urgings and assistance, I probably would not have written anything that anyone would care to read." --Lacking few lines to complete this pg, we avail ourselves of that utilitarian little verse from an early TTT: "A quatrain is a 4 line rime, that's never out of place; it may be used at any time, to fill an empty space!" Just so...
