on but we changed that to any space be-

game. I said that I'd fix up the game but I would
have to do a lot of testing and juggling and I'd probably need
till the end of September.
Felicia said that Rudy & I should split down the middle and
he signed an agreement.
Looked at his game <u>ADVENTURE AT SEA</u>. Had a gadget with sliding
disc on bottom with compass directions and two partial
discs. When the top two are opened they tell who moves and
in what direction. Object to move a ship across board to op-
posite port. There may be an idea here but it certainly doesn't
work now. I said that I'd much rather work on <u>LIVE WIRE</u>.
His other <u>GAME</u> was an action game which I didn't see. Felicia
thought there were possibilities with it.
 
Rcd. Sept.-Oct. <u>''GENERAL''</u>, <u>PANZER BLITZ</u> (Jim's game) is on
the cover.
 
At <u>Felicia</u>'s, she rcd. a manila envelope with a long exposition
on <u>TRIP</u> from <u>Steve Barkoczy</u>. Glanced thru it quickly but
didn't have the time to really look at it. (Pretty much the same as the one I have.)
