Rcd. 2 sets of his rules for <u>EL TABLERO DE JESÚS</u> from <u>Pete
Swift</u>.
Rcd. the <u>FOCUS</u> release which had been sent to <u>Felicia</u>.
Signed it and sent it back to Western Printing.
Rcd. a catalog sheet for <u>RACE FOR SPACE</u>. There is
a distributor in the Bronx and I'll call him. It is
also handled by Gameophiles Unlimited.
At the "Berdicks" looked at the <u>''TIMES''</u> magazine section.
Had the following ad:- Crossword Puzzle Buffs, <u>SARK</u> is here.

word puzzle card game that's sweeping the nation! Play it a-
lone or with up to 6 players. Set your own pace while expanding

Played 3-hand <u>PLANES</u> with BB and Dale. Each has one sym-
bol and can only take a plane in which that is in the
ascendent, except that the neutral symbol can be greater
without having bearing. We played with each player simply
scoring his planes. As an alternate scoring I may include
a scoring where whenever a player scores the player to his
right loses the same amount. This will make players play
against the next one to play.
It did play very well. The board tended to get quite full.
Rcd. a very pleasant letter from <u>Don Greenwood</u> of
<u>PANZERFAUST</u>. He would like me to write for him when I
get the opportunity, but not to hurry. They will be photo
offset soon. He enjoys my column in <u>''S&T''</u>. He thinks that
aside from the major game and my column the magazine is
too historically oriented.
Rcd. a second letter from <u>Dr. Manuel Ma. Risueño</u>.
He was told that <u>TEMPO</u> was a good game but can't remember
by whom. Now that he knows it is mine he'll buy it when he
comes to the U.S. in October.
He'd like the rules of <u>CAROUSEL</u>. They have a game
called <u>CAROUSEL</u> which is a stops game.
He also told me the rules of <u>COCKTAIL</u>, a trick taking
game with 5 different hands.
