No, we don't mean the beetle; we're talking about that sneaky critter whose nip afflicts its victims with pure laziness. To keep all Junee bug sufferers from sleeping the days away, we've put together an issue with lively, activity-stimulating features. We hope it works!! For instance, Family Camping -- the Easy Way is geared to get you and your family onto the great outdoors trail. Author Chet Fish has filled this articte with tots of tips to make your camping trips happy, not hard . . . And while you're in the camping mood, check into the feature behind our handsome cover. It's on page 54, and titled Get Ready for Summer Camp . . . Nothing stirs the sleepy mind more than action, thriils and nonstop excitement, which is just what auto expert Ken W. Purdy describes in Grand Prix -- -road racing's toughest test of men and machines . . . Sports action is another stirring subject, and William Heuman's The Scientific Pitch supplies a good share of that. His hero is Horace Higby, the school genius who's called in to end the pitching woes of Caruthers Prep's baseball team. But can Horace's crazy double curve baffle the ball- banging batters of Bedford High? . . . The writing of world-celebrated author Pearl S. Buck again graces the pages of BL In The House They Built, she presents three brothers who solve the problem of "What to do this summer" by building a real house. It's a tough job, and for awhile it looks as if the house never will be built ... Now, let's meet: WILLIAM HEUMAN:. The author of "The Scientific Pitch" is as devoted a sports fan as he is a devoted writer: he's still mourning the move of the Brooklyn Dodgers to Los Angeles, and still creating fifle fictional ballplayers. Bill's come a long way from his first sale -- a feature for which he was paid $3.50. Now, after hundreds of imaginary ball games and thousands of real dollars, he smiles and says, "Writing's a great game, too!" FICTION: The Scientific Pitch ... WILLIAM HEUMAN.
