FAN-ATIC 9 THE BALLAD OF THE THREE BOLD FANS. (Continued) Widner and Tucker were slightly dazed, But Doc has a pretty hard head. He matched the Martians bowl for bowl And put them all to bed. Then the Martian fans chose delegates Los Angeles to see, And the Earth-fans shakily re-embarked, To report to you and me. Those three, Widner, Tucker, And Doc. And if you don't believe this tale, Just ask the Man in the Moon If he didn't see those delegates Sail back at half-past noon? Or - next year at Los Angeles - Ask the first Martian you see If he wasn't invited to attend By Fan-dom's gallant three? Widner, Tucker, And Doc. ********** advertisement advertisement DAM' YANKEE --- ----- is not one word! And we'all can prove it! Or at any rate, that's what the SOUTHERN STAR and the DIXIE FANTASY FEDERATION are devoted to -- uniting the South into an active fan front capable of co-operating and furthering Northern Fandom as well as it's own. The STAR, you know, is the organ of the DFF -- as well as a member of the "Dixie Press", fandom's fastest growing press association -- and the biggest bargain in the fanzine line as well. If we weren't so stinking modest, we'd tell you that not only does it give you 42 pages for a dime, but finest line-up of material and features in any fanzine; five color mimeoing; the longest letter section in fandom; a New York news department; a swap column, etc. But we're too modest, so we won't say that we America's No. 1 column, "From the Starport" by Fred Fischer; "The Munsey panorama" by Panurge; Bob Tucker's hilarious column, "Mumblings"; a grimly fascinating article "Life Everlasting" by Fenton and Fischer; a mimicrayoned cover by Phil Schumann; Jack Speer's humorous MUTANT story "The Preposterous of Tim P. O'Nautisshan"; a department of fan handwriting analysis; and more humor by Klingbiel. All this is the third issue of the SOUTHERN STAR, from Joseph Gilbert. 1100 Bryan Street. Columbia. South Carolina. ((Send now, it's one of the best issues of any fanzine ever to appear. -- CAB.))
