committee putting a last touch to the Welcoming of our new NFFF members. While not in the spotlight, this work is very important, being productive of mutual good will, and of help to the new members. The response has been uniformly good, both from our own fans, and from those overseas. The British appreciate letters from their fellow-members in the States; and the NFFF members from 'Down Under' in Australia are eager for mail from USA. Our Welcommittee has been enriched by several young and energetic welcomers, ready for any influx of new members. The work itself has been divided and made easier, so that those who are busy with school, homework, house-hold duties and press of business, need not be unduly over burdened with correspondence. This is in part due to the suggestions of our young President Rick Berry, which were carried to completion by our Inner Pro. (Emili, I seem to remember - you were partner). Of course, there are some fen, who as old members of the W.C., keep on writing to every new member. All of the Welcomers have done exceedingly well, regardless of circumstances; one young member had a serious accident in his family, but even this did not deter him. I wish to thank the Welcomers for their splendid co-operation. Cordially, Emili A." CARD INDEX FAN PROJECTS - Message from Janie Lamb:- "Fellow BEMs gather round while I explain . . . I'm not to blame for this article. Eva asked for it, so you may heap the coals of fire upon her head. Now just what would you like to know about this file? There's little to tell, it is far from complete. But if I strike an oil well in the near future, so I'll have postage money to gather all the info needed, I faithfully promise to have it completed in twenty-five years. The file contains information such as:- name, address, birthdate, occupation, hobby, clubs of which the fan is a member. Also how long the fan has been reading Stf., what type work he/she will do for NFFF, and any fan activities. This information is to help the fan, as well as the officers of the club, in making contact with those they are interested in finding. To date we have some very interesting hobbies listed, and I have requests for pen-pals interested in 'general semantics' and Spanish. Among the occupations listed are Lawyers, Ministers, Doctors-Medical, Dentists, Musicians, and a 'Mental Institution Attendant' who informs me - take note H. Moore and Ackerman - that the institution where he labors has been practicing 'Dianetics' for some time. Now if you want to be real nice and help a pore gal get the file complete, send a penny post card with the following info on it:-Name, Birthdate, Occupation, Hobby, Stf clubs of which you are a member, type of work you will do, if any, number of years you've read stf, and state fan activities you have been engaged in doing, in the past fifty years. This will save me lots of time and money. Some fen have already sent in the information, and the ones who joined since July need not send it, because it is written on application from that time. Thanks for the space to do a little honest begging. S'all Folks, only don't forget to save your pennies for New Orleans, come '51."
