Secretary’s Notes

May Meet-final results are in and announced for the election of officers for the year 1987-1988. As there was only one slate of candidates, not many were holding their breath on this one. So here are the offical results:

President--------John Sims
Vice President--Dave Schoenwetter
Treasurer--------George Penney
Secretary--------Paul Hill
Trustees---------Don Lamen
                 Wes Brzozowski
                 William Tilley

Now that John is retiring from ibm, he’ll have up to 24 hours a day to devote to his sinclair. Have a Happy, Best of luck and Health to the newest retiree!!

June Meet-Wes demoed his Proportional Printing Program and went in details on how and why he developed such. His article and program listing starts on page 11. Note printing error notice at top of this page.

And just when we thought we’d seen it all, 32 columns, 64 columns and now proportional print, with 32 plus columns, I showed the program we got from Richard Hurd, “Dragon’s Companion” which uses 85 columns. Yup, I counted them, and I noticed a couple other believers after they counted too!! If you use a TV for a video output, 85 columns will be a touch hard to read. But with my little Zenith mono monitor the letters are readable. After this demo, a tape received from Joan Kealy of El Paso, Texas was shown. Joan has collected info, data, tips and tidbits of handy dandy ideas for programming, publications, user groups and anything else the TS2068 world touches on. We will include this in our tape library to spread the idea around. If you see this interesting program, and wish to contribute more ideas and helpful hints send Joan your efforts. Her address is on the tape.


Have a Happy, Safe and Healthy Fourth of July on this year of the 200th birthday of the Constitution.
