At 3M | At 3M met <u>Keith Tuggle</u> and he took me out for coffee. Showed me <br> | ||
their plans with <u>EXECUTIVE DECISION</u> to use a board similar to <br> | |||
that used in <u>STOCKS AND BONDS</u> for recording market prices, etc. <br> | |||
He asked me about the amount of material cards <br> | |||
and denominations of money I thought would be needed. <br> | |||
Will give him the answer when he comes to supper on <br> | |||
Tuesday evening. <br> | |||
They have two new puzzles which are attractively <br> | |||
packed in <s>pla</s> transparent plastic containers. <br> | |||
<u>HECTIX</u> - a series of interlocking square rods which <br> | |||
meet an angles as well as at right angles. (This may be <br> | |||
the <u>PUZZLE</u> I saw on 2/27 in <u>Tom Atwater</u>'s hotel room.) <br> | |||
<u>JATI</u> (which is not to be confused by the previous game of <br> | |||
the same name) is a <s>pu</s> action puzzle of maneuvering a piece <br> | |||
thru an obstacle course using a magnet. The ad sheet <br> | |||
also lists <u>PLOY</u> as being available for shipment <br> | |||
on Aug. 1. (Ad sheet filed in 3M folder.) | |||

I told him that I hadn't rcd. the copy of <u>TRADE THE MARKET</u> <br> | |||
I was promised at the Toy Show. He said he'd get one out to <br> | |||
me so that I could review it. <br> | |||
Saw <u>IN-QUEST</u> which is similar to <u>PROPOGANDA</u> and is <br> | |||
basedon scientific method. <br> | |||
In the "discovery room" <u>STRANGE BEDFELLOWS</u> and <br> | |||
<u>MR. PRESIDENT</u> were listed and I am pretty sure I saw them. <br> | |||
They were (I believe) both quiz types games. | |||
"<u>Marge Naramore</u>" - Took folders on <u>DIRTY WATER</u> and <u>SMOG</u>. The girl I spoke to said they were both games of strategy and <br> | |||
that she would send me review copies. They are coming <br> | |||
out on July 1st with another one called <u>ECOLOGY</u> and she'll <br> | |||
see that I get that too. (They are published by Urban Systems). <br> | |||
(Filed in 1970 Ad Clips.) | |||
"Regina Products Inc." - <u>HUSKER DU</u>? (This, I believe, is Danish for <br> | |||
"Do you remember"). Don't remember the details too well but <br> | |||
I believe that there are cards with pictures and the names <br> | |||
in some language. <s>These ar</s> One of these is placed beneath <br> | |||
a gadget so that the pictures are <s>obscured</s> covered, <br> | |||
but can be exposed thru openable windows. Play is similar <br> | |||
to <u>CONCENTRATION</u>, trying to remember where certain pictures <br> | |||
are so that they can be marched. (Filed in 1970 Ad Clips.) <br> | |||
