(I mean, yes, he's been a member of WSFS any year he's had a Worldcon membership, but....) (I'm not changing it without discussion because I can't quickly find a source for him being WSFA President and don't know it for a fact myself.)
Yes, he was WSFA president[edit]
- "In the early fall of 1954 I finally screwed up my courage and attended my first sf fanclub meeting. [...] The fanclub in question was the WSFA -- the Washington SF Ass'n [...] And within less than a year after that first meeting, I found myself elected club president."
