EASTERN JOLIET ILLINOIS NO. 4 BOOKS ARE FRIENDS Firstly, an explanation of the illustrations in this issue. The one on the first page will be the Windy City Wampires official shield illustration. You must admit that these fine pitchers is art. But, as most fans are co-operative I shall give the secret to all of youse. They are all blottos. What are blottos, well you take a piece of paper, fold it lengthwise, then put a blot of ink in the center and press the sides of the paper together, which my dear children ends up in a blotto. You'd be surprised at the fantastic pitchers and illustrations you can make in this fashion and it saves your grey matter for you don't have to wrack your brain trying to think up a suitable and beeyootiful pitcher for the next issue of "Fouty Fan Fables" or "Abby's Addlings". In tother words you don't have to give your all for dear old FAPA, blotto does it for you. I look forward to future covers of blottos, just think, an original blotto by Paul, wouldn't that be sumpin. ------------------------------------------------------------------- See Bryan Byron and Katherine Kapsulee in "Golden Passion". ------------------------------------------------------------------- Movie Department. No, I didn't steal that from Tucker, you see I wrote department out in full. Due to the great success and box office sheckles being pulled in by "Cat People", RKO has decided to make a sequel entitled, "Curse of the Cat People." If it is half as good as the original I shall be more than satisfied. But some thing seems to tell me that we are in for a line of "Cat People" pictures and that Simone Simon will reappear as often as Frankie the Stein Monster. Gene Tierney is to be starred in "Bird of Paradise", a remake. This is the best news I've received from the movie capitol in ages, as the original "Bird of Paradise" was the beast South Sea Island picture to come out of Hollywood. Yes, it's fantasy, concerns worship of Pagan Gods, that's fantasy, ain't it? Warner Brothers are to make "The Devil, George and Rosie", a fantasy starring Errol (RU18) Flynn, with Ann Sheridan and Humphrey Bogart. The scenario will be written by John Collier, author of that delightful fantasy book, "Presenting Moonshine." ------------------------------------------------------------------- See Nadia Nasturtium and Percival Peony in "Flower, You Skunk". ------------------------------------------------------------------- A new program presented on station WGN at 8:20 A.M. every week day, Central War Time, entitled "Strange Tales", Unusual stories by Rod O'Connor. Ah, nostalgia. ------------------------------------------------------------------- See Marcia Magpie and Georgia Guinea in "A Bird in the Bush". -------------------------------------------------------------------
