and leadership qualities" were
cited as reasons for his nomina-
count the number of people in

"We want to emphasize that the
magazine is interested in student
creativity of all types," Sohultz

out today that there is some quite
good work being done on campus
in the field of science-fiction, and
we think our publication though
it's not a humor magazine c a n
serve as an outlet for comic writ
ing. This, among other things, is
the type of work we hope to receive."
