Newsletter Review Eileen de Bues indicated that the Friends newsletter represents quite an arduous task. She suggested that a committee might be formed to assist Tony Scammell in gathering news, writing features and generally assisting with the compilation of the newsletter. Tony indicated that the newsletter has gone through several phases over the last few years and that the formation of such a committee would be helpful. It was agreed that Betty O'Sullivan would examine the membership files for signs of interest in participating in the newsletter and that an item in the upcoming issue would also invite people to come forward. It was also suggested that it would be useful if information about forthcoming meetings could appear at the beginning of the newsletter rather than at the end.
