   *	   Greetings from The MIT Entrepreneurs Club	   *

re: The E-Club's 5th Year Multiple-Purpose Party on Saturday, 30 Jan,
beginning at 4pm in both The Muddy Charles Pub and Morss Hall, is
open to all per the fee schedule previously posted.

(1) ALL MIT and Wellesley students, presenting their ID if asked to,
may attend at the same rate as "kids" ... $3 (three dollars) each;

MIT and Wellesley students must present proof-of-age in order
to get into The Muddy Charles Pub, if they choose to augment their
pizza with beer, otherwise students are invited to party with
E-Club and MIT alum and families and kids in Morss.

The "Party" component will go as late as music and other
"entertainment" lasts, but not later than midnight in The Pub.

(2) Note to all interested in fine art and related enterprises;

A newly added activity in Morss:  A Maine-based member of
the E-Club has put up the funds for the widow of the late
Maine painter Robert Goodale to organise and catalogue his work.

Robert Goodale (Yale) was a direct descendent of Nathaniel Bowditch
(whom sailors among the readers of this list will immediately recall)
and who spent the last 40 years painting (art, not boats).

Saturday night will include an opportunity for members of
The MIT Community to see slides and view a couple of representative
paintings and discuss and crit the work to help Goodale's wife
and friends decide where next to take the collection.

If the work is sufficiently "cutting edge" (in the opinion of 
MIT's curators) for acquisition consideration here, we'll work to
obtain a donation of one of the works as The Club's "commission"
for our collective critical opinion (on Saturday).

This should be an interesting and fun experiment and an opportunity
to discuss fine art and related enterprises with the artists
coming down the coast with Mrs. Goodale, and a nice change from the
usual high-tech start-up thinking with which we are "normally" obsessed.

NB: The work of Goodale shall not be for sale at the party, nor
is the crit session to be interpreted as a pre-view or other marketing
routine somehow worked into the party. Rather, we'll provide
the same service we do for people presenting raw ideas or developed
products looking for answers to the not-rare question "what now and how?"

Please mention this session to people you think would like to attend.

For further information please call us at 253-2000 or try
me at home during the _day_ in Cambridge at 864-4039.

Thanks,
