Called <u>Marshall Lucas</u>, on another line and he called me back later.  <br>
The new line he is in charge of is intended for sale in stationery  <br>
dept's., like the 3M line. His prior experience was on licensing  <br>
and he said he knows a little about games. He is interested in items  <br>
that people <s>that</s> will buy as gift items and likes the 3M  <br>
packaging - but he won't imitate it. Told him a little about <u>SKYSCRAPERS</u> and  <br>
he thought it might be what he wants - called it a "brain-teaser".  <br>
Would like to get together with me. I suggested his coming  <br>
here, even tho I didn't have much finished models around. He  <br>
said he'd like to. He'll call me at the end of the week to set  <br>
up a date for next week.  <br>
I mentioned that <u>Felicia Parker</u> was my agent and he said that  <br>
he intended to get in touch with her.  <br>
I asked about <u>SUMMIT</u> and the other games in that line. He  <br>
said that they were now under his control, altho he wasn't too  <br>
specific. He did say that the packaging was very ordinary.
Called <u>Jules Cooper</u>. Out of town and I left word for him to  <br>
call me.
Wrote the rules for <u>DRILL FOR OIL</u> and sent it to <u>Bob Hallowell</u>  <br>
together with a letter giving the shipping info for <u>ORBIT</u> and  <br>
thanking him for <u>NINE OF SWORDS</u>.
Rcd. a letter from <u>Alfons Rubbens</u> thanking me for accepting  <br>
<u>4000 A.D.</u> and <u>CHESSWORD</u> in the Xerox exhibit. Samples of  <br>
these and <u>SPECULATE</u> are being sent on March 13th.  <br>
He spoke to <u>Jim Dunnigan</u>. He'd like a copy of ''<u>S & T</u>'' sent to  <br>
Waddington.  <br>
He wants to know when I'll be in Rochester so that he can come  <br>
that day.  <br>
He enclosed a "House of Games" Newsletter and a reprint  <br>
from ''<u>VOLUME RETAIL MERCHANDISING</u>'' on adult games, written  <br>
by <u>Earl Doherty</u>.

Called <u>Earl Perel</u>. maybe we'll have an NYGA meeting there next  <br>

decided not to mention me.  <br>
