WEDNESDAY 14 OCTOBER 1970
287th day - 78 days to come

Called Herb Roth. He still doesn't have glossies on
THE BLACKS AND WHITES GAME or a copy of
BYZANTIUM. I asked him to pass them on to Felicia
when he does. He agreed.
Tried to call Felicia. Not in and hung up before getting
the answering service.

To P.O. Mailed copies of AGOG to Herb Siegel
(unsigned, to be done when I go there) and
to Allen Taber (signed "To Allen, as an expert in games,
I hope you like these. Sincere regards...")
Mailed the second hand copy of NEW DEAL SOLITAIRE
to Pierre Berloquin. Found out there is a reduced
air mail rate for books and used it - $1.36.

In White Plains saw that "Macy's" had more ACQUIRE
than the other bookshelf. (Seemed to be a new supply
rather than results of being left.) They also seemed to
have started with 6 each of the Gamettes, 3 MONAD,
2 HIGH BID and 2 TRYCE were gone. At "Brentano's"
VENTURE seemed to be moving. At "Kluger's" and at
"F.A.O. Schwartz" in Eastchester there were none of my games.

Michael Dummett called to confirm date for tomorrow and
to say he would like to sleep over. Told him of
Dale having mono (which he wasn't familiar with),
but he is 45.

Called Jerry D'Arcey. No answer so I called Frank Thibault.
He has a lot of things he is working on
but nothing particularly promising.
