Went to Toy Fair.
Bought "JOCKEY" and promised to send G.M. Hegranes a copy of "FOCUS". He is the sales manager. (Address in box with JOCKEY)
Spoke with president of Dadan company and ordered CHET HUNTLEYS NEWS GAME: They have a file of financial game patents and offered to let me use them.
Spoke to Saalfield company and they are coming out with a simplefied GO game next year.
Bought "DIAMOND CASINO" from Crisloid Plastics. They may be interest in Carre. Ordered some checkers in 4 colors (which I never received).
Saw TOSS WORDS a Scrabble type word game played on a board that had blacked out spaces similar to a crossword puzzle. By Cardinal.
Saw ZOOMINOES by Lakeside. Dominoes played vertically.
[DIAGRAM OF A STAND AND
6 DOMINO SHAPES]
Object: to bring the line down to the table on your side of the stand. Can play either to help yourself or play on opponent's side to hinder. Must play be matching an end of either line.
Dominoes have colors rather than number & are grooved to stay together.
Fairly complete idea.
