----
Started a letter to <u>Lech Pijanowski</u>.
Rcd. a correct answer to the <u>SLEUTH</u> problem in <u>S&amp;T</u>, from
[bracket] <u>David Levine</u><br>
305 W. 18th St.<Br>
N.Y., N.Y. 1011
Rcd. a card from <u>Warren Buell</u> in England.
Called and spoke to <u>Bernard Lane</u> of "Exhibition Management"
(see 9/3). They'll come to speak to me next Monday, after supper.<br>
Called Pierce Promotions. Spoke to Jan. They don't have a copy
of <u>SPEED CIRCUIT</u> to give me. They do have <u>EVADE</u> and I'll
call and arrange to pick one up.<br>
Called <u>Mickey Mackay</u>. Not at her desk. Supposed to call back. Didn't.
<u>Phil Orbanes</u> called. Got directions for <u>Bob Reiss</u> to visit me to-
morrow.<br>
I asked and he hadn't spoken to <u>Carl Eisenberg</u> about
<u>HOLEY TERROR</u> yet.
Read the rules of <u>PRESIDENTS DIRECTEUR GENERAUX</u> and looked
at <u>AVANTE</u>, in connection with my letter to <u>Lech</u>.<br>
Found a repro of the rules for <u>INTERPRETATION OF DREAMS</u>,
which Lech insisted he had to have. Wrote the letter on the
back of the two sheets.
Called <u>Carl Eisenberg</u>. <u>Bob Reiss</u> told him that he thinks
everybody will be coming out with color puzzles next year, so
Carl will not consider <u>HOLEY TERROR</u> until seeing what is
shown at Stationery Show next spring.
Spoke to <u>Phil</u> again. We planned that I'd ride downtown with
Bob &amp;  <u>Manny</u> tomorrow. Phil will show me a prototype of
<u>THE NEXT PRESIDENT</u>. He will also show me the game <u>ZIG-ZAG</u>
which is now called INTERPLAY. This is the game that <u>Joel
Gaines</u> didn't want to tell me the new name of. I told Phil
about my game <u>INTERPLAY</u> with Stancraft. Looked at the rules
and box and there was no TM or ®.
<u>Bob Reiss</u> called in evening and called off date for tomorrow.
Asked him about <u>GROOVE</u>. He didn't seem anxious to see it
but O.K.'d my bringing it to Phil. We'll set up a date for him
to come here either next week or after my vacation.
