Below is the table of contents and synopsis of the articles appearing
in the June 1984 issue of ANTIC magazine.  They did not produce a 
May issue.  Thanks to all who took the time to write and say that
they thought this was a good idea.  I got no negative responses.  If
someone else wants to put the TOC of other magazines in this group, go
ahead.  This is the only one I am going to do, even though I read all
the magazines that apply to Atari, this is the only one I subscribe to.

		how to control Player/Missile graphics from BASIC.  The
		accompanying BASIC program is a 4 player, tank battle
		game.  It requires 32K.  Modifications are included to
		run on XL machines.
54	COLOR FINETUNER
		This article presents an assembly-language program, with
		a BASIC loader, which lets you change the contents of the
		color registers--even when a program is running.  Requires
		BASIC and 16K.  Must use Translator to work on XL machines.
58	BASIC--A VARIABLE APPROACH
		This article presents a variable-list utility that aids in
		the debugging of BASIC programs.  Runs on all Atari computers
		but requires a disk drive, printer and 16K.
62	COMPUTER FURNITURE
		A round-up of stands, desks, etc.
71	ESCAPE FROM EPSILON (game of the month)
		Escape from Epsilon is a challenging arcade game for one
		player.  Requires joystick, BASIC and 16K (Cassette) or
		24K (Disk) and runs on all Atari computers.
87	SHORTCUTS TO SUCCESS
		This article explains the use of macros in assembly-language
		programming, and supplies a library of macros for graphics
		programming.  To use the accompanying programs, you must
		use MAC/65, a macro assembler from Optimized Systems
		Software (OSS).  The macros and demo program will run on
		any Atari computer.

This issue also includes some regular columns and reviews and previews
of new products.
