(Did you mean leaving fandom?)
A personalzine/newszine published by Ted White in spring and summer 1958, originally intended as weekly "but it doesn't seem so". The first three issues were titled Gafia Newssheet.
The #10 had Redd Boggs's LoC that the title "may result in some confusion" with his own Gafia Press and especially fanzine titles like Gafia Poetry and Gafia Advertiser. White replied "the next issue will appear under a new name. There may be other changes as well." Then he announced in Stellar 15 (some time in August) that it "is written and published as continuation of GAFIA", and the masthead said "combined with GAFIA and DIMENSIONS".
