Spike

Spike

The question of Spike, too has been thrashed out. The reasons for the Exec, decision not to publish Spike this year are both multiple and reasonable. An editor would be hard to get—one who was qualified for the job willing to spend a considerable amount of time collecting material, planning the magazine in collaboration with the printer, arranging for advertising, discussing types, size, format, prices. The time factor immediately rules out any faint hope of having a Spike to read" this year. All material must be ready by the end of July at the latest. To ask a person to attempt to do in one month what he would find was a full-time job for six months is to ask the attainment of the impossible in the circumstances, the decisions was the only reasonable one that could be made.
