Convention in Chicago 
You must by this time have heard about the big science fiction convention that is going to be held in Chicago late this summer?  Because if you haven't, you want to find out all about it because it is going to be some fun and a good thing not to miss.  It seems to have become customary these days of organized science-fiction to hold at least one big convention each year at which the fans from all over the country can get together, talk over their problems, know each other, swap ideas and reminiscences, meet the editors and writers, and in general thresh out the whys and wherefores of science-fiction.
     The first World Convention in New York last year wasn't exactly a success because of a number of high-handed attitude of the chaps who were running the shebang.  This year that angle is being taken care of by the organization of a democratic outfit
