Just a note.
I'm pleased that there is an award under Archie's name. He was a
wonderful friend, and I was on the phone with him shortly before he
died; he was finishing the red book series.
More recently I met up with Joe Hickerson in Portland, OR. He was
there at LC when I was in NY and we met up a number of times back in the
60s.
