SUNDAY 26 JULY 1970
St. Anne 207th day - 158 days to come
Ninth Sunday after Trinity
Made a layout for spacing the board for TRANSFORMATION.
Wrote the rules.
Did some work on a final model of TORTURE TOWER.
Jim Dunnigan called. He has left G.E. and will devote his
time to "Poultron Press" completely.
Rene Vidmer who used to work for 3M publicity and now has
his won outfit (I believe) is interested in buying 40% of
the stock in "Poultron Press." He wants to put money and ad-
vertising behind it. He is a war game freak. The final deal
should be decided in a week or so.
Tom Shaw told him that "A.H." had a 35% increase in sales so far
this year.
The issue of S&apm;T with COMBINATION is out. It is O.K. if
I have my next column ready by 8/17.
I'll go to new enlarged skunk works on 8/7 to test games.
He'll supply the people. I'll also get copies of the current
issue, my press card, and copies of my COMBINATION column
with brochures to give out at the "Hallmark" gallery.
Jim now does his xeroxing at 45 University Pl. where the prices
are about 4¢ or 5¢ a copy.
The best place to reach Jim by phone now is at the skunk works

of Capital Gains. He said that a firm of laywers-
"Engelson & Tannenbaum" - has made a contract for "M.B."
which lists the agreement as a sale, with the compen-
sation based on the number and price of units sold
on the market.
Ran 3 sets of repros of the TRANSFORMATION rules.
In the evening colored the diagrams on one set and set
it to Tom Atwater with a note.
Arthur called, but I got home too late to call back.
Letter from Lilly Elkan, with a picture (to show she's a
mature woman).
On way back to office from Felicia's stopped at art supply
store on 23rd St. Bought a sheet of wood grain cardboard,
an exacto knife & a container of extra blades. Looked at
the colored self-adhesive circles. $1.95 a color, and the
colors weren't too attractive.
