race. (Filed in '72 Misc.)  <br>
To Parker.
To Parker [Parker Brothers]. Showed my changes in<u>MASTERPIECE</u> to <u>Bill Dohrmann</u>
(and another fellow was there part of the time). Bill liked
them and started talking finances. I said I'd prefer a
royalty since, if the game continues a long time I would
feel that I had had something to do with it. He asked
how much and I said in the neighborhood of 1%. He said
that they would prefer a flat fee but he would check and
call me back early next week. He was talking of the
possibility of calling it <u>MASTERPIECE II</u>.
 
Before I started showing the other items he said that he had
second thoughts on <u>SKYSCRAPERS</u> and decided it wasn't for them. I told
him about <u>TORUS</u>, which he said he hadn't seen.
 
He took <u>LOTTERY</u> and <u>SPELLBINDER</u> with him. Didn't go into them
much.  <br>
He had a copy of <u>SEXISM</u> in the office which he said someone
had dropped off. I asked if I could look at it. He said
I could keep it.  <br>
He showed me <u>DEALER'S CHOICE</u>. Looked pretty good. Played one part
of Alex' <u>SQUARE OFF</u>. Also good.  <br>
Told him about Xerox and then <s>sugges</s> asked if I should work
thru <u>Mike Alber</u>. Yes.  <br>
In Press Room picked up another copy of the Ideal catalog. <u>Felicia</u>
wanted one and I don't know if she had a chance to get one.
 
<u>Arthur</u> called while i was out. I called back. Nothing new about
games.
 
[Arrows pointing up and down.]  [Started 3/1]
 
Picked up 2/29 edition of ''<u>TOY TRADE NEWS</u>''. New products lists
<u>ON-WORDS</u> and <u>MOVIE STARS</u>.  <br>
Before going to Parker stopped at G. & R. Spoke to <u>Mrs. Reidel</u>. She
said that it had been the best Toy Fair in many years. There
was nothing new in the adult field, but probably will be for
Stationery Show. I learned that the deal for Lakeside to
take over <u>DIPLOMACY</u> had fallen thru. (She said that a game
dies once it gets with Lakeside.)  <br>
Told her about Xerox. I'll come in after Toy Fair.
 
Rcd. [received] March ''<u>PLAYTHINGS</u>''. Nothing in it that I didn't see before.
