MONDAY 25 JANUARY 1971

Conversion of St. Paul 25th day - 340 days to come

Rcd. Nov. '70 and Dec. '70 INTERNATIONAL WARGAMER. Also a mem- bership and subscriber list. Dec. had the start of a 4-part article on a new game, REVOLT. Not too clear.

Called Claude, in answer to his call last Saturday. He has an idea for a word GAME, which came from his playing PROBE quite a bit. He asked me whether Selchow & Righter was interested in another word game. Told him about how BALI fell down.
Told him of my TV appearance and all about getting to- gether with the Pelham-Burns.

Felicia called - to thank BB for Friday night. She asked me the name of the law game and the company that put it out. LAWSUIT. Gary Sherbell, incidentally, also rcd. a copy of the game.

(cont. from 1/26) [1/27]

numbers 1 to 9 on them. Players take turns placing a piece and first to complete a line of 3 adding to 15 is the winner. If the first player is allowed to place 5 in the center he wins easily. He can be prohibited from using 5, or from starting in the center. A variation can be to use 16, or 14, as the winning total.

Working on the illustrations & board for LIVE WIRE.

Rcd. a form letter from John R. Champlin who is in- terested in taking over publication of the magazine INTERPLANETARY COMMUNICATOR. He mentions several space games:- NATH VI, TRIPLANTETARY, STELLAR EMPIRE, GALACTIC EMPIRE, GALAXY; also he wants to run a game he calls AMSIR-ARISIA.
A personal note asks for my help in writing for the magazine, specifically a column on the NBC adult games.

Rcd. a card from Gametime Inc. announcing a move on Feb. 1 to a new address.
