Jim says, has a lot of war game reviews. <u>Martin Campion</u> is  <br>
now interested in doing a listing of non-war games, such  <br>
now interested in doing a listing of non-war games, such  <br>
as <u>ACQUIRE</u>, etc. He is an ardent collector and Jim thinks I  <br>
ought to get in touch with him. Or he will have Campion  <br>
write to me (he is somewhere in the mid-west).  <br>
We called <u>Phil Orbanes</u> and both spoke to him. He was just ready  <br>
to give his notice to <u>Reiss</u> when he was given some game  <br>
development assignments, particularly a <u>TAROT</u> game to replace  <br>
the one that had been supplied by the girls on the west coast.  <br>
Jim and he thought that he should try to arrange to work  <br>
part time for Reiss on the developing, but give up the office  <br>
management, and also work part time for ''<u>S & T</u>''.  <br>
I asked about <u>Bill Knox</u> and <u>GROOVE</u>. Phil said that when Bill gets  <br>
involved in getting a project ready he forgets everything else.  <br>
Phil is sure that once the production problems are licked we will  <br>
get the contract.  <br>
Phil has pretty much gotten <u>Bob Hallowell</u> interested in doing a  <br>
line of board games. <u>INFINITY</u> is one he'd like and as soon as  <br>
it materializes Phil and I will work on it.  <br>
I suggested <u>FREE FORM</u>, but Phil said that <u>Manny Lefkowitz</u>  <br>
was still very interested in it. <u>SPACE STIX</u> is also still alive  <br>
with Hoi Poloi.  <br>
Phil and I talked about <u>Carl Eisenberg</u> and we both knew pretty  <br>
much the whole story. Phil's impression on Stancraft  <br>
was that someone there wants Carl to really put the game line  <br>
on its feet. Phil is damaged with the loss of royalties  <br>
on <u>AQUARIUS 2000</u>. His game <u>PRIX</u> will also be held up.  <br>
Phil will show <u>HABITAT</u> and <u>HONORABLE RELATIONS</u> to Bill Knox, <br>
next time he is in town.  <br>
Phil thought that the package of pencil & paper games with  <br>
<u>Bob Hallowell</u> would be a good seller.  <br>
Jim brought a copy of ''<u>AGOG</u>'' for me to sign for his aunt. I also  <br>
gave him a copy for himself.
