"Alan Millhone Retires"--the "9th"?

[Mr. Checkers]

"When Alan Millhone Retires" (several years from now) and he decides to write his first book will it be called the "5th", "6th", "7th" or "9th"---depending on how many ACF Presidents came before. "Checker Trivia question of the Day". How many ACF presidents came before Alan and who were they? (Cont.)

[Palomino]

I guess Alan doesn't have to be retired to write his book (and that book may be about collecting stamps) but that's another thing. Anyway, I don't know how many ACF Presidents came before Alan but I know Lester Balderson was ACF President for 17 years before Alan took office. So we have, going backwards: Alan Millhone, Les Balderson, (______________), someone else step forward here and fill in the blank here and I'm sure there will be a few more.

Homer Calkins Was the president when I joined the ACF in 1968, I believe that Ernest Churchill, Rudy Munzinger and B. T. Clifton were all president at some time before that.

[Bob Murr]

I almost forgot, Emin Elam was the first ACF president and Ernest Churchill and Rudy Munzinger were first and second vice-presidents

[Palomino]

So far we have:

1st. Emin Elam
2nd ________________?
? --- B. T. Clifton
? --- Ernest Curchill
? --- Rudy Munzinger
? --- _______________?
? --- Homer Calkins
? --- Les Balderson
? --- Alan Millhone

Is that correct?

"The Ninth" President - Alan Millhone

Ernest Churchill had been secretary (not president) of the NCA prior to the merger forming the ACF

[Mr. Checkers]

Bob thank you so much for all of the research that you have done to answer this question. As it stands now Alan's book would be entitled the "9th". (Cont.)
