MINUTES of MINN-STF MEETING, 15 May 76:

     The meeting was called to order by President Denny Lien at 4:22 pm in the
front yard of Erica Simon's home.  The major item of business was a discussion
of summer meeting dates and place.  When presented with the alternatives:
(a) keep meeting at 2-week intervals; (b) go  to the traditional summer schedule
of triweekly Saturday afternoon meetings alternating with weekday evening meetings
approximately midway between th Saturday meetings; or (c) devise yet a third
schedule; the members in attendance voted overwhelmingly to stick to tradition.
This immediately let to the call for volunteers to host meetings, bringing
forth an enthusiastic response, the results of which are noted above.

     The only other business was a series of announcements, including (besides 
a discussion of SF & Futurism, an autograph party at Uncle Hugo's, a Minicon 12 
organization meeting, and a fund to send Fed Haskell a congratulatory tele-
gram at BYOBCON -- all of which are already past and gone) the following:

     (1) There is a movement afoot to put a "MINNEAPOLIS in '73" ad in the
MidAmeriCon Program book.  It would cost $80.  The Board of Directors will pay
for half of it out of the treasury if the members can come up with the other 
half ($40) in individual contributions.  Deadline w June 1, and the goal has
almost been reached.  Support the cause!  Infect all of fandom with Minneapolis
craziness!  Donate what you can.  See Jan Appelbaum, Treasurer.

     (2) Phil Voerding announced, "I have a frisbee on my head."

     The meeting was adjourned at 4:33 pm.

((Respectfully submitted by David Emerson, Presidentially Appointed Temporary
Acting Secretary Pro Tem.))
