(Editor's Note: Since we feel that most 

 of our 1 1 3,000 readers experienced the 

 .same disappointment as Reverend Ache- 

 son we have printed two cover pictures 

 of the March issue of the lAA RicoRD, 

 one that is censored with the postal ad- 

 dress and one in which the view is un- 

 obstructed. We're sorry it happened and 

 we feel certain that our printer is not 

 happy about it.)
