THURSDAY 5 OCTOBER
Jewish New Year--Rosh Hashana 1967 278th day - 87 days to come
Rcd. the rules for SOLO from Paul Greenough. (Filed in
"Misc. Card Game" Folder.)
Another letter from Haar Hoolim. Contained a new game-
"CLAIMS".
BB, Dana, & I played EXECUTIVE DECISION. Used the following
method for determining the choice of "prediction" card.
Use a special die with numbers 1-1-1-2-2-3. The first
card is therefore the most likely. This made the game
more difficult to play than having the cards chosen by
the players in turn. However, it does not set the
length of the game to an even multiple of the number
of players and it is more logical as an analogy.
Bill Bentzin called late in afternoon. A writer for McCall's
MCCALL'S magazine called about an article on games.
My name & number was given. He asked if I had been
contacted. He'll look into it further tomorrow and
I'll call him at end of day.
He told me, unofficially, that BAZAAR was well thought
of and will go national. I'm to keep this to myself
since it is not 100% definite yet.
I asked him, for Annette's sister, whether 3M gives games
out to use as door prizes for organizations. He said
that the procedure is to write to:
{ Robert Granovsky (Granovsky)
3M Co. Civic Affairs
220-9W 3M Center
St. Paul Minnesota, 55101
Bill said that if I personally needed some he would see
that I get them.
Played ANOTHER - 4-hand with BB, Dale & Dad. Then 3-hand
without Dale. Also worked out a solitaire version.
