Call from Felicia, she wrote to Keith Tuggle, and included my request for clarification on "Knowledge" game, stating that I said it sounded like <u>FACTS IN FIVE.</u>

Call from <u>Felicia</u>, she wrote to Keith Tuggle, and included my request for clarification on "Knowledge" game, stating that I said it sounded like <u>FACTS IN FIVE.</u>


When she spoke to Audy Luftig and told him about the "assignment" from 3M the thought it was a rather lousy scheme. He thinks that the participating inventors should get a nominal fee for submitting a game, to be counted against royalties if the game is accepted. Felicia sent this to Keith as a suggestion, not a demand.

Felicia reminded herself that she had sent Mary the rules of a game several months ago. Mary had promised a quick answer, but it still hasn't come. (See 7/1.)

She red, a letter from<u> Bob Edwards</u>. They are returning <u>Spellbinder</u> and <u>High Finance</u> (or Gold).
She read a letter from<u> Bob Edwards</u>. They are returning <u>Spellbinder</u> and <u>High Finance</u> (or Gold). They are still keeping <u>Checkpoint</u> and <u>Planes</u>.
 
When they returned <u>I Sentence U</u> Felicia wrote and asked them what their criteria are. Bob answered :- At first they have a committee play the game. If they are not enthused enough to want to play it again, it is dropped. If they like it enough to want to play again,  they check it against other games they have of a similar nature to see which they like better.
 
<u>High Finance</u> (or <u>Gold</u>) evoked no interest. <u>Spellbinder</u> was liked but they liked other word games better. Actually they have enough word games now. He'll let Felicia know if they want more.
 
2 checks for <u>Fitting & Proper</u> will be sent next week. Felicia was talking to <u>Ruth Shaler</u> and told her about <u>Go See</u> and Research Games, even tho she intended to wait until she had something more definite to tell her.
 
Sellman told her that he is interest in Lillian Voegelin's <u>What's It Worth In Dollars</u> . But M.B. is also interested in it. I told Felicia that, unless she objected, I would tell Claude
