- A CHRISTMAS MESSAGE FROM FATHER SCSECS
-
- Doubtless some of you have found under your tree, in your stocking, or in
- some similar yuletide-season receptacle a gift in the form of what my dear
- California mother, who could never decide what to buy for people, liked to
- call "a cash remembrance." Are you baffled about what to do with your
- little solstice windfall? Why not consider using your augmented fortune to
- attend the SCSECS convention (March 11-14, 1993) here in Baton Rouge? There
- could be no better way to brighten your holiday than by planning for a happy
- springtime event. Basketball star Magic Johnson has recently commented that
- "the greatest players at any given time are the greatest players of all time."
- Under an analogous definition, SCSECS 1993 is certain to be the greatest
- greatest convention of all the eons! Printed programs and pre-registration
- materials for the meeting will be available by mid-January. 67 sessions!
-
- While you're thinking about SCSECS, think about using this extraordinary
- event to advance your own commercial reputations. The grand book exhibition
- will be conducted by Scholars' Choice, which will have an unusually large
- and attractive exhibit space in the hotel "Steamboat" room (featuring a
- gargantuan ship's wheel). If you'd like to have your book or other saleable
- publication displayed, please give the Scholars' Choosers a call. Ring
- directory assistance for area code 716, then kindly request the telephone
- number of Scholars' Choice (the elves forgot to leave me a telephone directory
- this morning). An "800" toll-free number may also be available. Or check
- one of your Scholars' Choice order forms. Please note that Scholars' Choice
- is a general retailer as well as a bookseller. If you have something else that
- you think SCSECSians would like to purchase, why not give Scholars' Choice
- the franchise? If you're having trouble getting a distributor for that
- day-glo Dr. Johnson t-shirt that you've designed or that double compact
- disk featuring your own readings of Augustan verse, why not make Scholars'
- Choice your vendor?
-
- Happy Holidays to All!
