This is a transcription done by Matt Strait in 2015. (I'm not
entirely sure that these are board minutes, per se. They clearly
record *some* of what happened at a board meeting, anyway.) I have
approximately preserved the original formatting. I may certainly have
made transcription errors or inadvertently corrected typos.

In their meeting of 23 Jan., 1976, the Board of Directors of the
MINNESOTA SCIENCE FICTION SOCIETY, INC., passed the below-recited
Resolutions and By-Law.  The meeting was held at the residence of
Director Ken Fletcher -- 341 E. 19th St., Minneapolis, MN 55404 --
and those present were all of the members of the Board: Ken Fletcher,
Jerry Stearns, Margie Lessinger, Jan Appelbaum, and Don Bailey.
Also present were Fred Haskell, editor of RUNE, and Don Blyly and
Dave Wixon and Jim Young, representing the MINICON Executive
Committee.
The board directed the undersigned to act as secretary pro tem.

The following By-Law was passed unanimously, and it is directed that
it be published in the next Rune, as required by the MNSTF Constitution:

     The Minicon Committee is delegated the authority to contract for
     all reasonable convention expenses, and to pay for them out of
     Minicon monies. Extraordinary expenses of the Minicon must be
     examined and approved by the Board of Directors in advance.

The following Resolutions were also passed unanimously by the Board.
Their publication in the next RUNE is not required but is recommended.

     The Board of Directors directs the Minicon Committee to offer a
     free subscription to RUNE to all Minicon members, and resolves
     that one dollar ($1) will be allocated towards RUNE expenses
     for each such subscription given.

     The RUNE regular subscription rate shall be increased to two
     dollars ($2) per year, and the sample copy rate to fifty cents
     (50cent) per year, effective immediately.  All previous subscriptions
     must be honored.

Submitted 25 Jan., 1976, at 343 E. 19th St., Minneapolis.
