There’s been a certain elegaic tone to these columns this summer, a hearkening back to earlier REFLECTIONS times,old memories of the science fiction field that used to be. Undoubtedly the deaths last year of those two colossi of our genre, Isaac Asimov and Fritz Leiber, were factors that aroused much of that feeling of nostalgia in me; and, as I noted a couple ON of months ago, 1993 is also the fortieth anniversary of my own first sale to a science fiction magazine. Fortieth anniversaries do have a way of getting one to look toward the past.
WORLDCONS And now another fortieth anniversary is upon me. For this is September, the month of the World Science Fiction Convention: and this year’s By Robert Silverberg Worldcon will be the fortieth convention I have attended.

1958, and Los Angeles: I got to see California at last, the palm trees and the freeways, little imagining that I’d live there some day. Among those I met for the first time at that convention were Poul Anderson and William Rotsler, who became friends of decades’ duration: I met Terry Carr there too, and watched him meet the beautiful woman who would become his first wife. (The marriage didn’t last long, and, sadly, neither did Terry, but he and I had some wonderful times together before his too-early death at the age of 50.)
1959, 1960, Detroit, Pittsburgh. It was at one of those conventions, I forget which, that I was roaming the halls of an afternoon and came upon Gordie Dickson, Poul Anderson, and Ted Cogswell sitting in a hotel room with the door open, contemplating an entire case of tequilla. I was never a drinker on the heroic Dickson-Anderson- Cogswell scale, but I do touch a drop now and then; they invited me in and I helped them dispose of some of it. Quite and afternoon.

To me, it marked a rite of passage in chance. the Worldcon sub-culture. (My toastmaster stint at the 1968 convention was exhausting and Heinlein was the star again in 1962 in Chicago, exhilarating, and I loved every moment of it. In the materializing unexpectedly as though out of years that followed I ran the awards ceremony on hyperspace in a white dinner jacket to collect his four or five other occasions, and, I hope lived up to Hugo for Stranger in a Strange Land. Conventions the standard set by my impressive predecessors.) were starting to get bigger, now: there were 550 people at the Chicago con, in a two-tower hotel of That 1968 convention was a bizarre event—marked confusing layout.

No one who was there will ever forget located. We didn’t even know which building it was that dreamlike weekend. in. So we sat quietly by ourselves on a back staircase for an hour or two, reviewing in wonder the dizzying six-year evolution of our writing careers, until at last someone we knew came by and told us where to find the gathering we were looking for.)
There was the crazed episode in 1967, another New York Worldcon, where dozens of writers waited forever in the hotel dining room for service, and an angry Lester del Rey dumped an overdue salad on the floor while at the same moment Harlan flung a plate of popovers against the wall. And the next night I led many of the same people to a favorite restaurant of mine where we wound up in a back room next to a garbage can. and waited again for our dinners, waited so very long this time that people whose names would be recognized by you all started to go berserk, and I thought I would be lynched by my own friends. Anne McCaffrey had to quell the raging mob, finally.
I no longer regarded myself as a callow novice amidst a band of demi-gods, by then. I had been around for a dozen years and plenty of writers junior to me had entered the field—Roger Zelazny, Larry Niven, Samuel R. Delany, Thomas Disch, and more. I watched them arrive one by one, and remembered how the old-timers had watched me do the same.
Still, I was startled in 1968 when the chairman of

I delivered the Heinlein once more, presiding over a Red Cross keynote address at that convention; a couple of blood drive in Kasas City in 1976: you wanted a days later, I was handed another Hugo for my Heinlein autograph. you had to donate a pint of your novella “Nightwings”; and then I was told, right at blood.

(From the Jungles to the Stars) The Career of Frankie Thomas by Charles Lee Jackson II
Born into a show business family, his father was — a double feature, comedy short subject, character actor Frank M. Thomas, and his mother animated cartoon, and a chapter of a continuing actress Mona Bruns. Both of his parents had quite adventure, that might run twelve or fifteen weeks respectable careers on stage and in films and before the (hopefully) thrilling conclusion. Three of television. Ironically, the mother of Tom Corbett the industry’s smaller studios released most of appeared as the mother of the Video Ranger (and Hollywood’s serials, and they played to appreciative his brother Hal) on Captain Video. His aunt and audiences for over 25 years. uncle were also actors. Tim Tyler’s Luck was based on a popular newspaper Frankie Thomas hit the boards at the tender age of strip created by Lyman Young (brother of Chic, of eleven. He started out on stage in Carrie Nation “Blondie” fame) and was easily filmed in less than working with a young Jimmy Stewart. After a few a month on the extensive back-lot at Universal City, other small roles, he appeared in the play under the watchful eyes of producer Henry MacRae Wednesday’s Child in the longest role ever written and his new associate Elmer Talbert. Ford Beebe for a child performer to this day. Selected as one of and Wyndham Gittens directed, and Thomas the Ten Best Plays of the Year, the rights to it were starred as the youthful Tyler, whose common sense picked up by RKO pictures, which brought Frankie was often overridden by his desperate desire to find to Hollywood to recreate his starring role. His his lost father (played by vaudevillian Al Shean), a mother and father also appeared in the film.
His next film, the modest but well received A Dog of Flanders, based upon the childrens’ classic about the poor Flemish boy and his faithful pooch. O.P. Heggie, today remembered as the blind hermit from that same year’s Bride of Frankenstein, as Thomas’ aged grandfather, headed up a supporting cast of durable character players.
From then on, Frankie bounced back and forth between Los Angeles and New York. Movies were here. Theater and radio (and, eventually the early days of television) were there. And Frankie did a lot of all of them. Plays like Remember the Day on Broadway, radio programs like Stella Dallas, and movie after movie.
But it was his next assignment that brought him the first of his claims to genre fame, as the star of the 1937 Universal serial, Tim Tyler’s Luck. In the days before television, the serial, or chapter-play, was a mainstay of movie-house programs: a kid could go Frankie Thomas to the local theater and see — for a nickel or a dime Page 13 L.A.Con IV Progress Report #2 Little Tough Guys in Society, an installment in the series that had been spun off from the “Dead End Kids” across the street at Warners.
It was there, on the other side of Barham Boulevard, that Frankie went next, settling in at Warner Brothers for an extended period, and where he would presently join the original “Dead End” kids toward the end of their work at that studio, in 1939’s The Angels Wash Their Faces and the clumsily titled The Dead End Kids On Dress Parade.
But his big splash came in a series he made in parallel with the tough-kid pix. As Ted Nickerson, faithful companion to Nancy Drew, the girl detective Frankie Thomas and Bonita Granville embodied by Bonita Granville, he capitalized on his Nancy Drew 1939 youthful exuberance to convey the perfect combination of impatience, curiosity, and scientist studying apes in darkest Africa.

Page 14 L.A.Con IV Progress Report #2 different. At first envisioned as a rank neophyte, a naif to whom everything would have to explained, Tom was changed when Thomas stepped into the role. Corbett, though still a cadet (Frankie’s still boyish good looks belied his actual age), became a take-charge, heroic figure. His inexperience and boldness could get him into trouble, but he always had the intelligence and pluck to get back out.
The series’ creators took pride in the scientific accuracy of their show, and made sure that the cadets were always depicted as just that: students learning how to be space lawmen. While “Captain Video” relied on gobbledygook and incomprehensible pseudoscience, and “Space Patrol” concentrated on high adventure, Corbett and company tried to keep their stories as close to hard science as the TV format allowed.
After the series wrapped, Thomas retired from acting. After that he took up teaching bridge, something he called “a good way for a former actor to find an audience”. He became president of the American Bridge Teachers’ Association, editor and publicher of “The Quarterly” bridge magazine, and associate editor of “Popular Bridge” magazine.
He also joined the ranks of professional writers. Surprisingly perhaps, his writings haven’t been in the universe of science fiction. Under the name of Frank Thomas, he’s written a dozen Sherlock Holmes novels. These have included Sherlock Holmes and the Sacred Sword, Sherlock Holmes and the Golden Bird, Sherlock Holmes and the Masquerade Murders, and combining two of his passions, Sherlock Holmes Bridge Detective.
He felt that, as an actor, where could he go after being the perfect space cadet, Tom Corbett.
For, through low budgets and short schedules, he had made the part his own, bringing the space cadet to the airwaves — both television and radio — from 1950 through 1955. In those years, Corbett and Thomas had many adventures, in space and on public-appearance tours, not to mention mishaps and near-disasters on the set. Thomas has many stories about his exploits, and, often in concert with his buddy Jan (Roger Manning) Merlin, revels in relating them to the many fans he still has, even half a century later.
