MONDAY 23 FEBRUARY 1970
54th day - 311 days to come

sent letters to "National Mail Order" Enterprises (see 2/20)
asking to be informed when the book is printed
and to Amanda Thompson telling her of the refund.
Also thanking her for SENSITIVITY .

Looking thru the following games in connection with the
meeting tomorrow and the Toy Fair next week: -
PAYOFF
DATA
EXCALIBUR (the puzzle)
CINEMA
NOMINATION
WHAT'S IT WORTH TO YOU?
SPELLBINDER
DIGIT
SPECTRUM - saw that I didn't have all of the new ideas down
in the 1969 diary. I believe that I had the first player make
one move, The 2nd two. The 3rd three. And 4 there-
after. A player does not have to take all his move. Also think
it is a good idea not to allow the same size piece to be
transferred twice in a row, as well as prohibiting a move be-
tween the same two spaces twice in a row. Aside from
this a player can move the pieces in any order (not
in a specified order as in the previous version).
Made 4 cards showing the permissible piling order.

Made a summary card for PE-LING, tracing most of it from
the TRIAD card.

Sent back the card refusing GO to the
GAME OF THE MONTH CLUB (N.J)

Started a letter to Frank Thibault but noticed new low rates for
dialed telephone calls after 11 P.M. (35¢ first minute and 20¢
each additional) and decided to call him. Did in evening but he
wasn't in.
