This issue, we have lots of fun stories in store. Our cover story is a new Velda tale by Ron Miller, and from there we move on to originals from DJ Cockburn, Laird Long, John Leahy, James Van Pelt, and of course Hal Charles, who has a new solve-it-yourself puzzler. Our novels are by B.L. Farjeon and Ray Cummings, and we have classic shorts from Philip E. High and Lester del Rey. Good stuff, all.
