SUNDAY 4 MAY 1969
Fourth Sunday after Easter
124th day - 241 days to come
Arthur called. He can't make it next Friday. No other date made.
Wrote up TROMINO GO for a STRATEGY & TACTICS column.
BB typed it.
(cont. from 5/6) [5/19]
Bill says they are not quite satisfied with EXECUTIVE DECISION
yet, but quite close. The present test panel doesn't care
for it, but they also don't like ACQUIRE. He wants to
try it on others. I said to be sure to return it to
me with their comments after they have finished.
[Started 5/19]
(cont. from 5/20)[5/20]
Called Felicia. She was drunk and I couldn't get a straight
story from her. I did some yelling of my own but to
no avail. Very unpleasant hour.
Called Frank Thibault. He will write to THE ARITHMETIC TEACHER
about BAZAAR. No new games placed since I last heard
from him. Jerry is doing well with THE IMPUZZABLES.
COUP D'ETAT is not moving at all. Some people are backing
him in manufacturing some items, so far only children's stuff.
When speaking to Hank Simmons I found out that he had
received the reviews. They were O.K. except that registered
games should have a ® mark.
In the call to Felicia she said that 3M wanted to
make HIGH BID and BAZAAR into card games. It makes
sense for the former, but not for the latter.
