----N.F.F.Facts---

I hope that by the time you get this issue of K-M-T, you all have the first TNFF. It has been slow this year. It should be out at least every two months. It would be a swell deal if we could interest a fan to take on a permanent job of O-E, as this changing every year is not for the best.

Will all you Editors please send a sample copy to these 'Newmems'

Some have asked about Membership Cards; They will be printed as soon as we have the Emblem cuts made. Stationery has not been OKd as yet, by the Directors. Each new member gets 25 Free.

We have 125.00 in the Treasury and about 50 members who are not paid - up for the year. Also, we have $47.80 coming from Walter Daugherty, as our share of the Pacificon cash. So we are in very good shape (the largest Treas. in the history of NFFF).

Here are some of the ideas going the rounds of the Directors. 

Neffzine: A combozine including all publications by members and sold to members and others interested. Les Croutch submitted this one.

Subscription Agency: Pres. Art Widner reports that this has passed and that Sandy Kadet is Manager. This way you can send in a fee and Kadet will see that the various Editors send you their Publication. No more continually mailing 25c to each and every Editor and then forgetting some and not getting on the mailing list.

Fanzine Digest: A quarterly issue of the BEST fanzines. Passed. Harold Cheney is Manager.

A Who's Who in Fandom: Around 250 fan names and all data about them. A questionnaire to be sent out by a Chairman, and filled in by fans. Still being discussed by Directors.

The BOOK-Com (Paul Spencer, Mgr) has permission from Dr. Kellar to reprint his "Sign of the Burning Hart". If the Directors approve, this will be our first book.

The BIBLIO: The work started last year, is going along nicely and RC Peterson reports that most of the stencils are done. Evans & Peterson are in hopes of having it done by this fall. A supplement can be done each year, thus keeping it up-to-date. 

The TNFF will no doubt have more details on all these things, so I will close with a hope that the membership will send in their comments to TNFF Nefforum and get some heat under the kettle. Adios...
