Last meeting was a lively and welcome change from our usual. First, Sigrid Rupp's house overwhelmed us; the food polished our palates, and then we got down to business. Elections were short and sweet; see cover page for who's new on the Steering Committee.

And then*.* DANCE CIRCLE AROUND MUSIC, the program presented by an improvisational dance/music group began. They call themselves RIPE FRUIT:
Dancers - Zandie Acton, Gail Thompson, Jim Fizdale
Guitarists - Joe Dolce, Willie B. Hart

Warming up, then warming out to us, and filling the room with their sensations for our sensations, it was indescribably delicious!!! Our feelings reflected their impressions and expressions, and we were
delighted. If you get a chance to see them, do; they're highly recommended by us! And please tell'em we sent you!

The first Asian Women's Journal was published in 1971 by Asian Studies at U,C. Berkeley, It is still being sold and continues to have impact on new readers. But four years is a long time, and four years have passed without any new publication written by, and dealing with Asian Women. Putting together a second Journal has been on the minds of many women; for our awareness and perspectives have grown and changed. It is time for a new Journal.

The last Journal was one of common experiences. It was self contained with a beginning and an end. Some women have suggested a journal that leaves room for continuity - maybe a series on Asian women in professions, in the family, in American society.

There are many women in this area, in L.A., in New York, and scattered across the country who have so much talent, Perhaps the Journal could be a magnet,, a focal point for shared efforts and pooling talent. If you have experience in graphics, printing, photography, journalism, if you have articles you wish to publish, if you write poetry., prose, if you are an artist, if you wish to learn with us, let us know: 549-0635
