Just a couple short comments this month.

First: I am pleased to report that Regional Director of Region #3- Howard Divins- 2731 Cedarbrook Dr. Marietta, GA 388,66 has accepted filling the - Matching and Ratings- position of SGS. Please don't rush cards off to him get as I will assume he will put something out in a future issue of -S- to tell you what format he desires qour submissions in

Second: SGS Research Department (me in my spare time) has come up with some information to answer some questions on previous issues of -S-

A: Issues: 259 and 268 contained a PL/PB variant called -Wintergale-_ Have had several questions about counters for this variant- This variant was sent in by a non-SGS member (Eric Bonner)- You might drop him a card for information about counters as we do not have them in SGS Headquarters.

B: Somewhere in back issues was a varient called -DEBRECEN - that was sent in by Sergio in Italy. Apparently, in a rush or whatever- I misplaced at least PART of the German counters. I've written to get a new set of pages for counters for Debrecen forwarded to me and I'll get them to Editor to be printed when I get them -- it was my error when I was editor so I must apologize.

That*s it for this month but remember, Noember is SGS election month so those wishing to get on the ballot to fill some of the positions- please drop a line to the Editor- 5 national and 11 Regional positions are there to fill.
