Everybody gets a headache however from the arrangement of the cards  <br>
(left side). They are making a set (right side)  <br>
which they think might remedy the problem.  <br>
He wants to see <u>PLANES</u>. (I'll bring it Tuesday.)  <br>
Felicia is writing about <u>FITTING & PROPER</u> and asked me  <br>
whether she should ask for $250 more or $500. I suggested  <br>
$250 and a definite date. She agreed.  <br>
<u>Harvey Gardner</u> is still enthusiastic over <u>''AGOG''</u>, but doesn't  <br>
think he can convince management. He'll give it one more try.
 
<u>Bernie Lane</u> called. It is definite with Xerox. <u>John Rasor</u> will  <br>
be in town Nov. 30. We'll get together, but will arrange  <br>
the details as soon as Bernie finds out Rasor's schedule.  <br>
After talking to Bernie I thought of a simple way of  <br>
setting up a machine to play <u>NIM</u>. Have a path and a  <br>
metal car. Player moves one to three spaces and  <br>
places the car to complete a circuit. Then he switches  <br>
on a switch which lights up a number from 1 to 3.  <br>
This is the machine's move. Etc.
 
Replaced the two missing <u>PLANES</u> pieces. Fixed up the  <br>
packaging, a better arrangement then my original one.  <br>
 
Started playing a game of <u>BEAT-THE-COMPUTER</u> by myself,  <br>
but couldn't stand using the program board. Studied it  <br>
out so as to be able to play  without it. I'll probably  <br>
have to prepare a "flow diagram".
 
Rcd. the following by parcel post:
