<u>Selma Shapiro</u>, <u>Diane Jaust</u>'s boss at "Random House," called. <u>Diane</u>
will be back from vacation next Monday and Selma will
have her call me on Monday or Tuesday. Diane will get
me the copies of <u>''AGOG''</u> for the exhibition, also will
work out some kind of a flyer - possibly I'll go there to discuss it.
Called "Renwal" & spoke to <u>John Donahue</u>. He'll have copies
of <u>TAM-BIT</u> & <u>TAKE FIVE</u>, and 1000 brochures for me to pick
up next Wednesday.
The $2 games are not moving at all. <u>ULCERS</u>, <u>RAT RACE</u>,
and <u>BATTLE OF BRITAIN</u> are beginning to move a little.
I asked about <u>GAME OF THE MONTH CLUB (N.J.)</u>, and he said
that they had some interest in <u>BATTLE OF BRITAIN</u>.
Mailman left a notice that the "Hamley's" package was at
the P.O., with money due for postage and for duty.
The <u>SEARCH</u> contract came. They will send me $250 as a closing
fee. Called <u>Felicia</u> and arranged to go there tomorrow
to sign.
Wrote to Tom Mason of "Western Publishing" about the Hall-
mark exhibit, and what to do about <u>FOCUS</u>. Told him
I was sending <u>''AGOG''</u> and packed a copy in a jiffy bag.
Rcd. clippings from <u>Jane Jordan</u>, including <u>''NEWSDAY''</u>.

<u>Dale and Phil</u> went to Post Office for me. Mailed the copy
of <u>''AGOG''</u> to Tom Mason. Picked up the package from
"Hamleys" with <u>AMOEBA</u>, <u>SHERLOCK HOLMES</u>, <u>FLAGSTONES</u>,
<u>TACKLE</u>, & <u>ZODIAC</u>. Charges were about $2. Sent
a postal letter to Hamleys saying that the package
came.
Short letter from <u>Henry Lamb</u> promising a longer one
soon.
Rcd. the two signed <u>EXECUTIVE DECISION</u> contracts from
<u>Keith Tuggle</u>, with a short, rather formal note.
Looked at the models of <u>AIRLINE</u> and <u>HAVING A WONDERFUL TIME</u>.
