Bob Hallowell called. His designer agreed with my markings on the "C" sword in NINE OF SWORDS. He is send- ing the whole drawing to me for me to check.

Rcd. the following packages:
OH PET IT from Gini Scott.

Finished the S&T column with SMOG, EXTINCTION, PLOY, & MEM.
Dana read it in evening and found an error in QUERIES 'N THEORIES.

Called Anne Anchincloss and told her I'd have BB de- liver the column Friday. She said to leave it with Mr. Monaghan.

Called Jim Dunnigan and told him the column was finished and that BB would bring it to Vidmer's of- fice tomorrow.

Read the rules for CASTILE and looked at Gini's CONFRONTATION, with idea of including one or both in BOOK WORLD column.
