It began over t h e Labor Day week end i n 1940 a t E r i e , Penna a t t h e NRC Convention. Those of u s a t t e n d i n g noted t h a t t h e f u t u r e o f t h e

R e s u l t , knowing t h i s I began t o persuade t h e one per- son i n charge t o t u r n over t h e c lub equiptment t o me and I would s ee t o i t t h a t t h e c lub b u l l e t i n s would be publ i shed r e g u l a r l y . It was no t un- til e a r l y October t h a t my e f f o r t s bore f r u i t . A f t e r b r i n g i n g j u s t a cheap mimeo maching back w i t h me from E r i e a l o n g wi th very few b u l l e t i n enve lopes and no th ing more, o t h e r t han a b i t of adv ice d e a l i n g w i t h how t o do t h e mimeo job, a b u l l e t i n was publ i shed on October 2 1 19.40,

In o rde r t o p u b l i s h t h a t i s s u e I was f o r c e d t o f o o t t h e b i l l s f o r t h e mimeo paper-mimeo i n k - s t e n c i l s and stamps, The c lub when t u r n - ed over t o me w a s BFiCk'E.

Thus a f t e r 2 more i s s u e s we con t inued wi th a t o t a l o f 63 members. They were a s s u r e d t h a t b u l l e t i n s would be forthcoming r e g u l a r l y and I am very g l ad t o s t a t e t h a t t h o s e members cooperated t o t h e utmost and t h e c lub t hen cont inued t o grow l i t t l e by l i t t l e .

The N.R.C. w a s o r i g i n a t e d i n 1933 a t York, Pennsylvania. It was t r a n s f e r r e d t o E r i e i n 1937 when compl ica t ions s e t i n and t h o s e doing c l u b work a t York could no t cont inue. It w a s on ly 3 y e a r s a t E r i e when a l i k e s i t u a t i o n occured. Thus you can r e a d i l y see t h a t t h e N R C had i t s t r o u b l e s i n i t s beginning.

Fred Van- Voorhees took on t h e job of c u t t i n g t h e s t e n c i l s f o r our s h o r t wave s e c t i o n . A couple y e a r s l a t e r t h e NRC dropped eve ry th ing except t h e b roadcas t band and we became t h e f i rs t s t r i c t l y BCB DX Club i n t h e count ry , i n f a c t I belkeve i n t h e world, This d e c i s i o n was w i s e s t move t h e NRC made because i t was from t h a t time on t h a t our membership be- gan t o i n c r e a s e r a p i d l y , A t t h i s same t ime Van Voorhees cont inued t o c u t t h e s t e n c i l s bu t h i s ' s h o r t wave s e c t i o n now became t h e " I n t e r - n a t i o n Fore ign DX U i g e s t i ~ . This s e c t i o n of DX News became v e r y popular .

I n 1953 Hal Wagner r e l e i v e d me of t h e pub l i sh ing job and k e p t it f o r 2 y e a r s when I was a g a i n askcd t o r e l i e v e him which I d id f o r t h e y e a r s 1954-56 a t which t ime some l a d s from a long t h e Hudson took it f o r t h e y e a r of 1956-57.

A t t h e Omaha NRC Convention 1959 Pop Edge was persuaded t o r e - t a k e t h e pub l i sh ing job.

Some s t a t e d t h e y d i d not wish anyone t o g e t mad a t them and o t h e r s did not b o t h e r t o c a s t a vote . Under bo th t y p e s of t h e above c l u b governments t h e correspondance necessary was eno r ious and it d i d n o t accomplish i t s purpose, Too much o f it had t o be done by one per- son wi th t h e r e s u l t t h a t o f t e n t imes long de l ays occured. Thus my pro- p o s a l would e lemina te a l l t h i s and knowing t h a t both E r n i e Cooper and F r e d Van Voorhces a l o n g wi th myself were a d u l t enough p l u s having v a s t D X Club exper ience could h o n e s t l y and f a i r l y o p e r a t e t h e c l u b and when neces sa ry , hand down d e c i s i o n s which a l s o would be hones t and f a i r t o a l l concerned.
