<u>Jerry D'Arcey</u> called. Met him at 205th St. subway and here <br> | |||
for supper. He doesn't have any games to show this year - <br> | |||
he is manufacturing non-shatterable "Mad Clatters", a <br> | |||
toy with two balls on a string. <br> | |||
Jerry told me that he heard that Hallmark was going into <br> | |||
games and I told him that was X and I have 9 <br> | |||
things with them. | |||
<u>Frank Thibault</u> has placed an action type <u>GAME</u> with Lakeside. | |||
It consists of a large flat wheel mounted vertically <br> | |||
with a hollow between two <s>player</s> plates. Each player has a <br> | |||
separate opening at the top thru which marbles are entered. <br> | |||
Deflectors can cause them to move out to the edge or to stay <br> | |||
towards the center. Object is to try and keep them towards <br> | |||
center (tho it is maily luck) so that the wheel tilts towards <br> | |||
the opponents side, spilling his marbles. (Fairly complete <br> | |||
idea, I think.) <br> | |||
