WHAT HO?

Now comes to your hands the first edition of our weekly reader, a more permanent supplement the information spewed forth at each meeting, a guide to the shape of things to come, and a gentle reminder that you are never far from our thoughts--nor should we be from yours.

In the past, members of this company founded singularly appropriate to preserve each weekly issue, the resulting compilation forming a priceless history of the past year. Other achievers have found that each weekly issue forms a spit ball of gratifying proportions

Have your way; it don't cost nothing.

LET THE RANKS BE SWELLED...

Strike Mark Hardy from your "Who is Who," and now we are 23. We could use two or three more members, preferably male, preferably immediately. By now you know what lies ahead; if you know of someone capable of contributing and fitting in with his odd conglomerate, bring him (her, them, whatever) to the meeting Thursday night. Give this some serious thought. We definitely need some more people.

-------------------------------
SATURDAY MORNING CONFUSION...

OK, that sweaty business is over. You've all faced the mike and the first of many traumatic experiences we have in store for you is behind you. We played the tape. Found some pleasant surprises, some disappointments, some funnies. Don't be all that embarrassed when we play it back to the group... especially those of you who were totally went to pieces. Relax... enjoy.

And, 13 of those present indicated interest in some sort of filmmaking workshop. We'll put together a prospectus on this for your approval, to see if what we know meets on your needs.
DON'T FORGET TO REMEMBER...

Thursday, Oct. 14th-SALES SEMINAR, 7:00 PM, JA Center, areas area 3. Be there, please.

Saturday, Oct. 16th-writers meeting/continuation of sales seminar. Time, place, to be announced.

STOP ME IF YOU'VE HEARD THIS ONE...
(in which the editor responds to steadily dwindling number of requests to draw upon a compendium of quotations, some of which merit reflection...)

"My method is to take the utmost trouble to find the right thing to say, and then to say it with the utmost levity "

-George Bernard Shaw

ADVERSARIA

BRING A DOLLAR to the meeting Thursday night. Become full-fledged capitalists this week, selling stock in our company to investors--of which you should be one.

FILM BUFFS are reminded that NOTRE DAME'S Cinema '72 films series offers a dandy alternative to the downtown the thee-a-ters and IUSB's weekly fare. Coming up: "Cranes are flying," "Black Orpheus," "La Strada," "La Dolce Vita," "La Bonheur," "Medea," "8 1/2", "Juliet of the Spritis," and a week-long underground festival of shorts and features like "Trash" and "Greetings." 26 flix, six bucks. An unqualified bargain.

CUT OUT from your school papers anything you see about BOC ... including past releases. We thrive on publicity and you earn bonus points (they're just like mommy's Green stamps, see...) for bringing in the tear sheets.

IT'S DOG EAT DOG in the sales world and our little contribution to the spirit of competition will be announced Thursday when we bring you details of the First Great Sales Hype. You say you can't wait?
