THURSDAY 26 NOVEMBER 1970
Thanksgiving Day
330th day - 35 days to come


Started a board for OVER 'N OVER but didn't get a chance to
complete it.
At Marylin's played several games with Eliott and with
Dale. Disvovered that with 1, 3, and 5 moves for the
first, second, and third turns the first player had an
unbeatable advantage if he played correctly. Tried 1, 3,
3, 5 but this, as well as being unwieldy, gave the advantage
to the second player. Then thought of 1, 2, 3,
4, 5. This seemed to work o.k.

BB typed the two letters I wrote yesterday.


(cont. from 12/6) [12/8]

HECTIX, JATI, and THINKING MAN'S GOLF.

Looked at the model of INFERNAL BINARY MACHINE. Just
one slight amplification to the rules (which I later
added to the rules).
To Brentano's with Felicia. Looked around a little and
then to Pig 'N Whistle with Dorothy Shapiro for lunch.
She was quite pleasant.
