FANFARE 23 STRANGE INTERLUDES tasy Society and New Fandom, if there really is a split, will definitely not help it. You can count on my support, if that means anything. (Sure does. Thanx-awjr) The best way to make the Federation dictator-proof would be to limit the term of any person to only one year, and no consecutive term under any circumstances. No one could hold more than one office at a time. Quite a bit of other things would have to be included in the constitution... A MESAGE FROM PLUTO by Marvis Manning FANFARE is on the up & up. This #4 issue is okey. Good format; good material; and good gracious, the finest clearest most readable hectographing we've ever had the good fortune to run across. (Or is our ish the first offf the jelly?) (No jelly, Marv; for info on the type machine used, drop a prostal to Standard Mailing Machines, Everett, Mass.; or to the Ditto Company, Chicago.--yeds) *** Cover; stinks--lettering & general layout, fair, but the illustration phewwww! Art, why don't you give up doing covers for fanmags?-- (With a name like "Art", I fugure I can't miss!-awjr) THE ULTIMATE VISION by Bob Studley At last I've seen the ultimate in hectoing -- howdja do it? What kind of equipment did you use? (see above--yeds)****This issue is swell except for the cover. Your last cover was much better -- THIS ONE'S ON THE HOUSE comes out first with a 90.***UNITE OR FIE is a swell idea -- I'd like to run for Vice-President, and am sending out a letter to be passed among the selected ones. (OK, Bob you're on the ballot as soon as you get your signatures--awjr) I'm sorry I couldn't attend the last Stranger Club meeting, but I'll be up there during the Christmas Holidays. THE PAPER EATER by Bob Tucker Number 4 (October) FANFARE arrived this noon, was greedily consumed (Tucker, U talk like a goat--yeds) this p.m,& here I be, commenting upon it onight. Probably the best piece in this bestest issue is the RDSwisher biog. I'm afraid my reaction to sauntering into the Swisher parlor and finding one Campbell perched therein, feet propped up, would be much different from the one experienced by Singleton. I would be tempted to utilize the excellent method used by Kornbluth to entertain his friends; give the gentleman a hotfoot. Can't you just picture Campbell hopping about on one gunboat, rubbing the other and screaming: "Xandrulu!" *** Regarding the article on Hamling: I have a bit of alleged inside information from a source sometimes reliable and sometimes inclined to be overenthused about his Stardust.
