Rcd. a package | Rcd. a package from <u>Rose M. Wilson</u> of Neo Press. Contained three <br> | ||
boards of different sizes with <u>POLY - Y</u> on one side <br> | |||
and <u>MUDCRACK Y</u> on the other; also rules for the former and stones <br> | |||
in fancy containers. Also a personal letter. | |||
Rcd. a letter from <u>Julian Clark Martin</u> (who wrote to me before, as <br> | |||
an <u>''AGOG''</u> reader). he has decided to publish his <u>GAME</u> himself <br> | |||
and would like some info and where to get components. He'd <br> | |||
also like me to review it in ''<u>S & T</u>''. | |||
called <u>Bob Hallowell</u> (who was supposed to call me at the beginning of <br> | |||
the week). Told him I would work on the rules for the p. & p. <br> | |||
games over the weekend. Also told him about <u>HEXOWORD</u> and <br> | |||
<u>TOURNEY</u>. He wants me to get together with him and his designer in <br> | |||
New York next week. I suggested Thursday afternoon, since I'll probably <br> | |||
be in town then. He'll try to set it up. Now he's thinking of doing <br> | |||
only 5 or 6. Also he probably can't price it for less than $1.50. | |||
Started going over the puzzles I already worked out for <u>DIALEMMA</u> <br> | |||
and came up with some new ones. | |||

He showed me the packaging he worked up for the p. and p. <br> | |||
games. It is quite attractive with a wrap around sleeve <br> | |||
and a tray inside. | |||
Rcd. a letter sent to ''<u>S & T</u>''. asked info on <u>LENSMAN</u> and <br> | |||
<u>SPACEVENTURE</u>. | |||
Rcd. a call from <u>Gini Scott</u>. Wants to get together but will <br> | |||
be in town all next week and I suggested that she call <br> | |||
me next Monday evening. <br> | |||
She has a puzzle with Hasbro - <u>SCREWBALL</u>, a plastic <br> | |||
ball with twelve screws that pit in different <br> | |||
directions. I said it sounded something like my <br> | |||
<u>NINE OF SWORDS</u>. She said she had her idea for years. <br> | |||
Her games packaged in cubes are not doing too well <br> | |||
(<u>CONFRONTATION</u>, <u>THE LIB GAME</u>, <u>TRIAL</u>.) They will <br> | |||
probably be repackaged. | |||
