get around to telling her that I got one. Will tell her next time.
Told her that she might be getting some games (TEAMSTER, etc.) from Lou Zocchi. Also that I told him of all her terms.
She has been getting a lot of inventors from MB [Milton Bradley] and she has a lot of good things, many that I haven't seen. It is still not definite whether MB will stay with adult games. If they do she will show them a lot of things at Toy Fair.
She asked if TRY-ANGLES (Al Richter's) was worth showing. Told her I'd review it and tell her Monday. Also told her I was seeing Al tonight. She didn't have anything encouraging for me to tell him.
She said that if MB did go in for adult games, stay with that is, she is sure that she can get them to give me assignments.
Told her about COOK'S TOUR in PLAYTHINGS. She knew about it but it was confidential. She suggested that I tellBob Gellman about it next time I speak to him.
She doesn't think that having two travel games coming out will hurt, especially if HOLIDAY is better.
In general she doesn't care too much for Angelo Longo's (spelling?) choice of games. But she is going to show him some things after Toy Fair.
She'll give me Chuck Titus' address next Monday. We discussed "Capital Gains" and maybe I'll change to her accountant.
Norman Monath - inventor of BALI has always taken his royalties as "Capital Gains."
