The Xerox shop needs complete details on all the construction. I  <br>
said I could do it on everything except the wiring. The electric  <br>
football is, of course, replaced and he said I should also  <br>
leave out the electric <u>NIM</u> game. We decided I'd leave it  <br>
till last.  <br>
Made a date for me to bring the drawings to him next Thursday  <br>
at 2:00 P.M. I'll put them on 8 1/2 x 11 sheets so that  <br>
he can run off duplicates and we can mark the painting  <br>
on them and make changes as necessary.  <br>
He hasn't followed up on the gigantic <u>CHESS</u> set yet, but will.  <br>
Called back later to tell me that he had an appointment on Thursday.  <br>
Made it Friday.
Called <u>Felicia</u> to tell her about <u>LOTTERY</u>, <u>SPELLBINDER</u>, and <u>SKYSCRAPERS</u>.  <br>
I suggested 3M for <u>SKYSCRAPERS</u> but Felicia said they are very disorganized  <br>
and she'll wait till Stationery Show when <u>Bill Caruson</u> comes in,  <br>
unless she can find someone else first. Altho she doesn't care much  <br>
for puzzles, this one appeals to her.  <br>
She stopped at R.G.I. yesterday and looked at the <u>HOLIDAY</u> box. She liked it.  <br>
<u>Herb Roth</u> keeps warning Felicia to watch out for <u>Bob Gellman</u>.
<u>Frank Armbruster</u> here for lunch. Gave me 10 copies of a new scientific  <br>
gimmick he is manufacturing called <u>THE BULLROARER</u>. He told me  <br>
that he had located a copy of <u>SENSITIVITY</u> and had sent it to me about a week  <br>
ago, even tho it wasn't much. He rcd. the material on <u>MONOPOLY</u> and  <br>
Dale's paper that I sent to him.  <br>
Frank saw <u>John Gieger</u> (where?). He is now selling his games by mail  <br>
order only. Frank had a copy of <u>METRO-MOSAIC GAME</u> and of  <br>
<u>THE DECA-LOGIC GAME SYSTEM</u>. I located the latter but couldn't find the  <br>
former at first. He told me to keep the copy; it is more important for me  <br>
to have it than for him. (Later located my copy, but not sure it is  <br>
the same.)  <br>
This brought up the subject of finding a home for my collection. He checked  <br>
with his friend at the Steinhart Aquarium, part of the California  <br>
Science Museum. He wasn't interested in a game collection.  <br>
Frank is teaching a class "Games for Education" at Santa Clara  <br>
University which is a Catholic School. He asked if I would mind a  <br>
Catholic School. Of course not. (Frank, incidentally, is not Catholic.)  <br>
Frank's class is for teachers and is a workshop in inventing new  <br>
