<u>Sylvia Bailin</u> called | <u>Sylvia Bailin</u> called to say that on WMCA they had had the <br> | ||
author of a game book. She wasn't sure of the name. <br> | |||
I called WMCA and it was ''<u>THE BIG BOOK OF FAMILY GAMES</u>'' | |||
by Jerome Meyer (Hawthorne). <br> | |||
In Manhattan stopped at Polk's. They had Guidon's <br> | |||
<u>ALEXANDER THE GREAT</u> for $7.95. It was very crudely <br> | |||
produced. Didn't look at the rules. <br> | |||
<u>Frank Thibault</u> here for supper. Showed him <u>SKYSCRAPERS</u> <br> | |||
and told him that Parker was interested in it. Gave him a copy <br> | |||

3M is interested in <u>CONTIGO</u>. It is in competition with a game <br> | |||

found that it was hopelessly biased and had to be changed <br> | |||

of Alex' games (which?). <br> | |||
<u>Bill Caruson</u> is now in charge of all the retail consumer products. <br> | |||
Frank said that Bill always speaks highly of me. <br> | |||
Frank's <u>REGATTA</u> has been cheapened. The board was cut in <br> | |||
size and the number of islands reduced to one. This size cut <br> | |||
could affect the play but they never checked with him. <br> | |||
When Frank started dealing with 3M they told him to call collect. <br> | |||
Then not to call collect. Recently Frank called and <u>Keith</u> (I believe) <br> | |||
