Looked at their game <u>WHITE HOUSE</u>, just the board there. Said it | |||
looked like the play was must like <u>MONOPOLY</u>; he said it was. <br> | |||
Gave <u>Bob</u> a copy of ''<u>S & T</u>'' #30. He is interested, he says, in | |||
subscribing and possibly advertising. <br> | |||
I asked if he wanted to tell me anything about <u>MOVIE MOGULS</u>. Only | |||
that they still want to do it, and it is now up to <u>Ken</u>. <br> | |||
<u>Bob</u> took me to lunch. I suggested Chock Full of Nuts. | |||
To <u>Felicia</u>. The <u>HOLIDAY</u> contract had a clause that all | |||
patents, copyrights, and trade marks belonged to R.G.I. [Research Games Inc.] Then | |||
there was a clause that the Designer could terminate the | |||
contract for default. I added "that all rights, with the | |||
exception of trade marks, will return to the Designer." We both | |||
signed. The royalty payments will be sent to Felicia for | |||
distribution, since Bob doesn't want to send three checks. <br> | |||
<u>Felicia</u> told me about a <u>GAME</u> based on dealing with church | |||
property, that was brought to her. At first she thought it was | |||
another <u>MONOPOLY</u> rip-off. But it had a cute gimmick (which | |||
she didn't remember and she didn't have the game there). She'll | |||
try to sell it, but doesn't think she'll be able to. <br> | |||
She gave me the rules and photocopies of a game <u>STONED</u> (didn't | |||
get details about where it came from). Together with it was | |||
a clipping about <u>DEALER MCDOPE DEALING GAME</u> and two on | |||
<u>FEDS 'N' HEADS</u>. (Clippings filed in I/S [1/5?] folder.) <br> | |||
Both MB [Milton Bradley] and Hallmark seem anxious to get <u>PSYCHE-PATHS</u>. She is | |||
giving Hallmark first crack at it.// <u>Lillian Voegelin</u>'s <u>GAME</u> is <u>J'ACCUSE</u>. <br> | |||
She checked with <u>Dorothy Shapiro</u> of Brentano's whether she thought | |||
3M would remainder <u>BAZAAR</u>. Dorothy doubted it greatly. <br> | |||
Told <u>Felicia</u> I'd try to have <u>LOTTERY</u> and <u>DIALEMMA</u> ready for Toy | |||
Fair. Told her a little about the latter. <br> | |||
<u>Herb Roth</u> came in. While talking the subject of <u>AQUARIUS 2000</u> | |||
and <u>BRIDGEVERYONE</u> and I said I think they were now, | |||
together with <u>Carl Eisenberg</u>, at Riis Associates. I intimated, | |||
without being specific, that I knew them all. <br> | |||
Felicia said that <u>DOOP</u> was as good as <u>BRIDGEVERYONE</u>. Herb | |||
said that he was throwing away a copy of <u>DOOP</u>. I told him | |||
I'd take it, and any other games he was thru with. <br> | |||
Herb also gave me a copy of <u>HAT IN THE RING</u>. He is | |||
discontinuing handling it, since he realized that it was too | |||
competitive with <u>WHO CAN BEAT NIXON?</u>// Gave me glossy of | |||
the latter which I brought to Skunk Works. | |||
Rcd. [received] ''<u>PANZERFAUST</u>'' (#51, Jan. - Fe. '72 [January - February 1972]). It is now offset and | |||
60 pages. Quite attractive. It contained, among other things, | |||
an article on <u>ORIGINS OF WORLD WAR II</u>; a review of <u>ALESIA</u>, <br> | |||
