(July 26, 1924 – September 25, 1980)

Saville Sax contributed articles and poems to issues two and three of Chan Davis's fanzine Blitherings, published in 1944. The New York Times obituary for physicist Theodore Hall described Sax as the former college roommate of Hall who recruited him to spy for the Soviet Union. Sax also acted as a courier to move atomic secrets from Los Alamos to the Soviets. Neither Hall nor Sax were arrested for their roles in atomic espionage.

In the third issue of Blitherings Sax responded to an article by Norman Stanley in an issue of Fan-Tods, suggesting that he also had access to FAPA or VAPA mailings.
