it's mathematics). Also a picture of (<u>Gini Scott</u>'s) <u>NOSTALGIA</u>. <br> | |||
Also a notice asking for information from publishers for <br> | |||
inclusion in ''<u>THE GUIDE TO SIMULATION GAMES FOR EDUCATION AND TRAINING</u>'' <br> | |||
-2nd edition. <br> | |||
Picked up a copy of ''<u>TOY FAIR WORLD</u>'', put out by ''<u>TOY AND HOBBY WORLD</u>. <br> | |||
Nothing new to me. <br> | |||
(To Parker but <u>Bill Dohrmann</u> was in a conference.) Went to Avalon <br> | |||
Hill and spoke to <u>Tom Shaw</u>. <u>FRANCE</u> is their new game <br> | |||
and will be out soon. <br> | |||
Told him about the Xerox exhibit and asked him for copies of <br> | |||
<u>GETTYSBURG</u>, <u>FRANCE</u> (if available), and <u>ORIGINS OF WORLD WAR II</u>. <br> | |||
He suggested <u>TUF</u> and I said I'd try to get it in. I'm to write <br> | |||
to him to remind him. He wants a b. & w. picture of <br> | |||
His rep, Erwin Lewis, room 1017, asked for a copy of ''<u>S & T</u>'' and I <br> | |||
said that I would bring him a copy. <br> | |||
To the Renwal rep's office. <u>Irb Lubow</u> and <u>Lou Wetzel</u> supposed to <br> | |||
be there but wasn't. <br> | |||
To Parker. Made date with <u>Bill Dohrmann</u> for Wednesday at 3:00 P.M. <br> | |||
<u>Tom Atwater</u> was there playing <u>Alex</u>' <u>SQUARE OFF</u> with <u>Ed Parker</u>. Said hello to them both. <br> | |||
Went to "Tinkertoy" office to try and talk to <u>Howard Sussman</u> <br> | |||
about the giant Tinkertoy for Xerox. He was in conference. <br> | |||
Met <u>Dick Harris</u> of M.B. in the hallway. <br> | |||
In press room met <u>Marvin Katz</u> (who did the ''<u>GRIT</u>'' piece on <br> | |||
me). He is now a free-lance doing pieces for ''<u>PLAYTHINGS</u>'' <br> | |||
and ''<u>TOYS</u>'', as well as none-game things. There was a big <br> | |||
lay-off at ''<u>TOYS</u>'' and he is no longer an editor there. <br> | |||
He may be doing a book (for Stein & Day, I believe) with <br> | |||
the stories being some famous games. He may include <br> | |||
me and <u>ACQUIRE</u>. <br> | |||
To Statler-Hilton: - <br> | |||
Stancraft : - Spoke to <u>Mary Hilt</u> and she had me come back later <br> | |||
to meet <u>Norton Cross</u>, the new Product Development Manager. <br> | |||
Asked them about <u>TRANSFORMATION</u> not being mentioned on the <br> | |||
royalty statement. They'll check, but possibly it is because of <br> | |||
the advance which wasn't made up. I hinted that I'd like to take <br> | |||
the game back but Norton said that they'd keep trying with <br> | |||
