MONDAY 7 DECEMBER
1970 341st day - 24 days to come
[crossed out] Rcd. a check for $7.50 from S & T.
Finished the pieces, masked a checkerboard, and
played LIVE WIRE with BB. Had to make some changes
in the initial layout, but it played well. Set the following
goals for winning: capture of one of opponent's
sources, or bringing one of your sources across the board.
Felicia called. She set up a date tomorrow with Dorothy
Shapiro of "Brentanos," at 2. I'll go to her place first
and look at some games she has there.
After she pushed X they sent an option contract for
COUNTER INTELLIGENCE. She said that cleared everything up
except TOTALLY and TROMINO GO. I reminder her about
WHAT'S IT WORTH TO YOU? and she'll check on it.
BB typed the letter to Bill Caruson I wrote on 12/5. Also
a carbon for Felicia.
(cont. from 12/8) [12/8]
To Parker. Sign on door "No Samples." Asked salesman
who to contact in Salem - whether Bill Dohrmann was
the one. He said he could make an exception for me
and gave me a copy of CROWN RED.
Back to Felicia. She gave me the "1970 Advertising Calendar
for "3M" Brand Games" to copy and return.
