Dear Chuck, I think that the first page of your February 2 Cycle News (cover) is absolutely the best that you have ever done for attractive circulation purposes for your paper. Just great. At the last District 37 sports committee meeting I promised you that I would send you a list of District 37 club p'Oints earned for desert heavyweight. I 11 agree that clUb members are as proud of their club points as they are of their personal points for earned numbers. Although I have been keeping points all year I personally had some surprises on final totals so it should be interesting reading for your District 37 followers. Cal Makela Dist. 37 Compo Comm.
