COMMITTEES:

MEMBERSHIP: At the last meeting, one new member was accepted--Douglas Lewis.

ENTERTAINMENT: Dec. 13, 1980 was chosen as the date of the WSFA Solstice Dinner. Of course, Dec. 12, 1980 will be the date of the Pagan Tree-Trimming. Please bring an ornament for the tree. Also see Doll about your dinner contribution of food. As usual, WSFA will pay for the turkey and drinks.

PUBLICATIONS: The November Journal is out. For October, 50 WSFA Journals were mailed. The address list will appear in the December issue.

DISCLAVE 1981: As relayed by Beverly Brandt, Isaac Asimov is our tentative GOH "if the 'cric don't rise!" Also, Ms. Brandt has sold 18 memberships so far. If Isaac is a no-show, it was suggested that Alexis Gilliland be our SGOH.

OLD BUSINESS:

By-Laws Amendments-- 1. That Article IA1 read: "Dues sha be $8 per annum or $3 per quarter". Y:8;N:18;A:1. Amendment defeated. 2. That Article IA1 read:"Dues shall be S5 per annum or $2 per quarter." Y:16;N:4;A:4. Amendment passes. 3. That the following be inserted into Article I:"Payment of the full annual dues either by quarter or in one payment shall include a membership in the DISCLAVE held at the end of the club year." Y:11;N16;A:6. Amendment defeated. 4. That the following be inserted into Article I: "all life memberships awarded prior to Sept. 1980 shall retain all rights and privileges previously enjoyed in perpetuity". Y:31;N:1;A:1. Amendment passes.
DATCLONE-- A suggestion was made to hold it in Ocean City?????! Well, the room rates are good. Jack is still bargaining with the Key Bridge Marriott for a $32s/$38d. The Hunt Valley Inn wanted $68 flat. Gettysburg, Pa. is also being considered.

NEW BUSINESS: Zippo!!

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

Beverly Brandt is publishing a fanzine for WSFA. Contributors needed.
Sharon Harris is present but can't attend the meeting. It seems smoke from cigarettes and her lungs don't agree, and asthma is keeping her out.
See Mike Walsh for BALTICON info!!
ROVERCON was dubbed the worst con of 1980.
Alexis has his galleys for his latest tome.
Until further notice, there will be no more 3rd Friday meetings at Berg's.
At the first Friday of December, a DISCLAVE 82 Chair will be selected.
The 3rd meeting of Dec. is at the Oliver's.
Steve Stiles needs men for the comics! (?).

The meeting was adjourned at 10:05 pm.

MORE MINUTES!

Meeting of November 21, 1980, Tom Schaad presiding at Oliver's.

The meeting was called to order at 9:16pm. The minutes were approved as read. The treasury stood at $3,295.01.

COMMITTEES:

MEMBERSHIP: Four new members were accepted-- Kim Hutchinson,; Sally Bensusen; Chris Valada; Donald Bieniewicz; one new corresponding member was accepted--Joe Giaquinto.

ENTERTAINMENT: Tonight we find out who shot J.R. (I still think the baby did it!-- Ed.). Do not forget the Solstice Dinner on Dec. 13 and the Pagan Tree-trimming on the 12th. If Lee comes, there will be poker. If there is time, Mike Harris will give a dramatic reading!

PUBLICATIONS: The secretary asked people to check their address cards on file so the new mailing list could be compiled for the December Journal. Also, Jane Wagner has a new fanzine (this is contagious)!!

DISCLAVE 1981: Alexis reported that Isaac Asimov has confirmed as GOH!!

OLD BUSINESS: Zippo!!

NEW BUSINESS:

The secretary requested that the club consider the following--that WSFA Journals be mailed only to corresponding members, members not in the vicinity, and that any person who has missed a Journal call her directly, so that one could be mailed to them. This is to replace the old system of checking attendance lists against membership lists to see who should be mailed a Journal. The club supported the new procedure. (So if you miss a meeting and a Journal, give me a call at (703)-979-9478 --Ed.)
DATCLONE--From out of the blue, Jack Chalker and Eva Whitley presented the Sheraton in Gettysburg, Pa. for the site of DATCLONE, as a possibility. They also mentioned the Carousel Hotel in Ocean City, Md.. The club voted to hold DATCLONE at the Sheraton because of the great deal-- $26s/$32d.; 1 free function room;suites at 75/day;limo & bus service from BWI/Harrisburg;pool & sauna. The motion was made and carried that WSFA underwrite the costs of DATCLONE, (here is the good part), that Jack and Eva be DATCLONE Chairs.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

Beverly Brandt presented her new fanzine, SF Chaos!!
An author was in our midsts--Dr. Gary Bennett
Anyone interested in the SCA's 12th Night dinner, see Kent Bloom.
Michael Harris tried to give a dramatic reading, but was beat by J.R..

The meeting was adjourned at 10pm.
