MONDAY 1 MAY 1967
Rogation Day
Sts. Philip and James, Apostles
121st day - 244 days to come
Felicia called. Statement from 3M for ACQUIRE came. -
$987.55. THis is close to 15% better than last year
on sales. HIGH BID did less well.
I'll go there Thursday to see FREUDIAN BLOCKS.
A woman in Chicago has a music game called KEYNOTE which
they think is interesting and will have the woman send it.
Connor Barrett has two new GAMES. One is a 2-hand
strategy and the other she doesn't remember. Don't know
when or if we'll get to see them since Connor is returning
to England. He has to leave his studio.
Larry Winters was crazy about PAYOFF and wishes he had
made it up himself.
Rcd. another call from Felicia. Arnold Shapiro called after
receiving their report where they mentioned that the
secret was off. He said that at the stationery show
they are only announcing a series of pen and pencil games
and the secret is still on. Whensomething happens we
will be the first to know, and we should be getting news
that we will be pleased with in about two weeks.
They are standing out contracts for BAFFLE, DEDUCTION, SHAPE
SHAPE AND SHATTER and STACK STICKS.
They are having trouble with the rules of CAPTURE THE CARGO and
are having trouble costing TOTTER. But they like both of them.
They still like PERCEPTION.
Felicia gave them a buildup for PAYOFF and they are looking
forward to seeing it.
Spoke to Claude. EGGHEAD POKER, the new name for
SCRAMBLED POKER is almost done.
BB bought me some clear contac for making cards for
HIGH FINANCE.
Felicia had told me of their financial troubles, including a
payment check from a store that got lost. In evening
I called and offered to loan them money from the 3M check
until theirs comes thru. They declined with thanks.
