We still have a few copies of the 1979 and 1982 editions (available from
the Treasurer), while some from 1975-78 may still be held by Scott Davis.

Note that the latter editions did not include any Women's lists.  The best 
source for these was "START" magazine, the quarterly bulletin of the Czech 
Group.  START 2/75, 2/76, 3/77 and 3/78 were the relevant issues.
