    News Letter Is Unable to Report If Any Such Meetings Were Held Or If Any Club Members Appeared

    THE CONVENTION REPORT UJ iL tn LU Photographs on pages 9, 15. FICTION SUMMER BOOKS SCIENCE FANS & WRITERS hD 3 CHICAGO | worm's eyeview cartoon on opposite page by Lee Hoffman | Bulletin; Thru error, it was reported at convention that 1,050 people had signed In. Dup.licate registrations and pen­ names caused confusion. Final and official count now reveals that only 867 registered. Estimated 175 gate-crashers also present. 0PENIN3 DAY: One year ago at New Orleans, science fiction conven­ tions moved into the realm of big business when that affair grossed over one thousand dollars. This year, attendance and program presentation likewise moved into the higher brackets. The three - day Chicago program was overloaded with names and star attractions, so overloaded that a fourth day could have been added to handle the overflow. Target of much fan criticism because they were "professional hucksters," the convention committee provided more mass program entertainment than could be adequately grasped. Like all previous conventions, this one began late. A long and seemingly unending line of people formed before noon to register; by mid-afternoon they were still at it. In addition, the hotel carpenters were unable to prepare the stage in time for the open­ ing hour; a Catholic youth convention in the same hotel had stayed beyond their allotted time, ruining schedules. Some six hundred people sat in the Terrace Casino, watching a giant moon-map hung as a backdrop, watching people scurrying about on the stage. About 4;30 pm, William Hamling opened the proceedings with an’ address of welcome, and It was announced that 650 people had reg­ istered up until that time.

Few bibliographies are created without the help of many hands.
