2. FROM "MISCELLANIA" BY TIVIA IN "THE SCIENCE FICTION FAN" Volume 5, No. 6 "Some day I'm going to write a stf. yarn myself--and then throw it in a waste basket." I would like to recommend that sentence to about 90 per cent of the authors in Thrilling, Amazing, Comet, Stirring, Cosmic, Fantastic, Astonishing, Super, Future, etc., etc. FROM "LOVE IN A CHOIR LOFT" IN "MIKROS" Volume 2, No. 1 "'Why don't you die? hisses Kuttner." I'm afraid I will, Kutt, old top; if these babies make you hiss many more sentences similar to that one. FROM SOME BIOGRAPHICAL NOTES IN "FANTASY FICTION FIELD" Volume 2, No. 5 "Hyman Tiger....23, tall, brown hair and eyes, ---Is misanthrope and misogynist; lately imbibing the works of Shopenhauer---" "Scot Feldman....younger than Tiger,---Is being Tutored in Shopenhauer by Tiger;-----" The underlining is mine. Need I say more? FROM POGO'S STF-ETTE Re a photograph. "Beside Russ is Walt Daugherty, our director, and then Pogo. I might add that both those legs don't belong to Pogo. The one on the right is Ackerman's----" I took one look (maybe two or three) at Pogo's one leg and another at Ackerman's and that was quite enough for me. Poor Acky loses out again. I'd trade two complete Ackermans for two of Pogo's legs--anytime. Boy, she's got somethin' there. (If the Mrs. is listening--I don't mean it.) FROM "WE ARE ONE" IN "COMET" Volume 1, No. 4 "'I've hurt you, Carroll,' Moor hissed to the wind." This ain't nothin' to what I'd like to do to the author of them thar hissing words. FROM A LETTER TO THE QUEENS SCIENCE FICTION LEAGUE- FANTASY NEWS - Volume 6, No. 1 "----I saw men so emotionalized that they were able to jump barbwire fences higher than the world's record for the high jump. I saw a soldier lift a 200-pound enemy and toss him twenty feet as though he were a bag of flour. In such cases they had boosted the so-called mental voltage until they were supermen with super power----".
