THURSDAY 13 AUGUST 1970

225th day - 140 days to come

Ken Morgan brought me a rough copy of MOVIE MOGULS which he asked me to return next week. (He will get me a finished copy as soon as they are ready.) I gave him two copies of S&T to give to "David LeFebvre".

Felicia called. She had a letter from Lily Elkan and couldn't remember her. I told her.
Allan Turoff is indefinite about when he will have his idea (see 8/12) ready for me to see.

Had an idea for an overlay puzzle, BITS AND PIECES.
[Three drawings of 5x5 grids each with drawn dots and some square edges drawn in thicker.]
There are 8 transparent layouts similar to the 2 towards the right. Each one will have one segment of those marked with a [dot]. Object is to pile the 8 so that the complete quadrille is formed.

Rcd. SMOG and DIRTY WATER from "Urban Systems."

Rcd. the $144 refund for A.A. from "Random House."

Spoke to Ira Bailin. At one of the dept. stores he picked up a small colored folder from 3M with ACQUIRE on the cover. Unfortunately he misplaced it.

Called Jim Dunnigan. The flyer with repros of my COMBINATION column is ready. I'll pick it up tomorrow. He discussed my preparing a layout for a press card, bringing it to a printer, and then being reimbursed. The contract with Vidmer is getting close to being signed.

Looking at AIRLINE and HAVING A WONDERFUL TIME again. Came up with an idea for the latter:
Provide 24 "scoring cards", bringing the total to 108. There are 6 cards totaling at least as much as the penalty involved, with no change. If he doesn't have enough he gives back what he has.

Rcd. a card from Henry Pelham Burn announcing his marriage. (Formerly of PACE Magazine.)
