April 7 is O.K. for my column #32. <br> | |||
Took the following, some for possible use at Xerox exhibit: | |||
''<u>MOVES</u>'' (#1); ''<u>S & T</u>'' #26 and 3 - #29; <u>NAPOLEON AT WATERLOO</u>. | |||
To <u>Earl</u>'s. <u>Claude</u> there already. Earl insisted on treating us | |||
to a Chinese meal at Hing Hing restaurant. <br> | |||
Started to play 3-hand game of <u>4000 A.D.</u> but | |||
Claude wasn't feeling well. He napped while Earl and | |||
I played. Instead of each using 2 home stars and | |||
fleets as specified in the rules we each used only one. | |||
And it still was rather complicated to use the warps. <br> | |||
Earl and I played a game of <u>HEXAGO</u> (see 3/18) | |||
while Claude looked at books. Earl took the inventor's | |||
name & address & will write to him. | |||
The three of us played <u>WILDCAT</u> and it played well. <br> | |||
Claude bought a book - ''<u>GROWTH GAMES</u>'' for $1.50 and asked | |||
Earl & me if he should get us copies. Yes. | |||
During day rcd. [received] a package from Parker with <u>SMESS</u>, <br> | |||
<u>LANDSLIDE</u>, <u>MASTERPIECE</u>, <u>AVALANCHE</u>, <u>MONOPOLY</u> (French). | |||
Also rcd. <u>THE GREAT DOWNHILL SKI GAME</u> from Franklin. | |||
In the morning before I left, rcd. call from <u>Jules | |||
Cooper</u> in answer to mine of 3/17. Told him about the | |||
info in ''<u>HOW TO PLAY GO</u>''. He thanked me. <br> | |||
I asked if he had sent the games yet. No, but he'll | |||
be sure that I get them in time. <br> | |||
I told him I probably would have a game to show him | |||
in a few months. | |||
At G. & R. I told the secretary I'd take <u>RICOCHET</u> for Xerox | |||
since she had tried to push the Kontrell games in the past. | |||
However, they have discontinued handling them and are just | |||
waiting for the samples to be picked up. | |||
