Volume 2, Number 4. Cover illustrated "File 384" by Bowen Conway. No editor is stated on the table of contents page, but the letter department "Station X", which included editorial material, is signed "RWL" (Robert A. W. Lowndes' initials), so the magazine is attributed to "RWL" here. Note that John B. Michel's short article "Futurian Times" on page 34 is attributed to "The Editor" in the table of contents. Michel was an occasional Lowndes collaborator, but Lowndes was the primary editor according to all sources. Robert A. W. Lowndes reviewed 2 fanzines as part of the "Station X" department on page 112, "Fantasy Fiction Field Illustrated News Weekly" by Julius Unger and "Imagi-Music" by Henry Andrew Ackermann.
