MONDAY 5 OCTOBER 1970
278th day - 87 days to come
Felicia called. The checks and contracts came from X
for DIGIT and PE-LING, also for Allan Turoff's
MAKE-A-PUZZLE GAME. She'll hold my checks until I get
the opportunity to pick them up.
Put together the 6 storage boxes (large size) and put them
in the paisley room
(cont. from 10/60 [10/9]
looking for a new name.
Took a listing of the companies and games they handle:
Aco Games: FACULTY CARDS, TIC TAC TRIX, CHARGE (so far they
only have a dummy box).
Adult Leisure Products Co: HAAR HOOLIM PERCEPTION GAMES,
THE VERBAL GAME, RECKON (with the different regular
solids - so far only a dummy box), THE GAMES PEOPLE PLAY GAME.
Art Fair: FOURCAST (4 fortune telling devices), SIGNATURE
(handwriting analysis). Neither is really a game tho the latter
has a little game of recognizing handwriting of celeb-
rities.
Createk: AD-DIC'TION, INFO-MANIA, IMPOSSIBLE GAME, SPLURGE,
DUPLICATE CHESS, SPACE CHASE, PENETRATION, SPECULATION,
SEDUCTION, DISOMANIA.
Foursmiths & Co: COOP-A-LOOP.

become a staple), WHAT'S THAT ON MY HEAD?, CONVENTION.

Metroplan: LOGI-QUAD PUZZLE, LOGI-QUAD, PER CHANCE,
NIM-BALL-QUAD, COLOR-QUAD, DECA-LOGIC, METRO-MOSAIC.
(She said that John Geiger's attitude keeps him from making
a success. Also that people don't like to get the game for
children, thinking of the load of marbles if the game is
dropped.)
Plan B Corp: VECTOR, BUNDLING, CARAPACE.
Products of the Behavioral Sciences: CHROMINOES, ZEMDOMINOES
(ESP Test Kit), KALAH GAME, BALI-BUTTONS, LOONY LOOPS,
