The Little Schemer

Hi, I am working through the little schemer. I do not have the math skills to work through SICP.

I have the following code:


(define (member? a lat)
  (lambda (a lat)
    (cond
      ((null? lat) #f)
      (else (or (eq? (car lat) a)
                (member? a (cdr lat)))))))


When I run this say like:
(member? 3 (cons 3 '(9 8 7 6 13 3)))

I get the following:
#<procedure:...my-scheme-log.ss:137:2>
rather than a list without the first instance of 3

Can you help me?

The original Lisp was more like Scheme than like CL anyway.
Wat. It didn't even have lexical scoping or closures. And I'm pretty sure it didn't have unhygienic namespaces.
