for the copy of <u>SLEUTH</u> I gave to <u>Dan Mack</u> of WRVR.  He'll
get me that too.  We both agreed that <u>Dan Mack</u> is a fowl [foul] ball. <br>
get me that too.  We both agreed that <u>Dan Mack</u> is a fowl [foul] ball. <br>
Called <u>Mike Alber</u>.  Thanked him for contacting <u>Bill Dohrmann</u> about
<u>MASTERPIECE</u> for me.  Told him I had sent the revised rules to BIll.
Decided on using <u>MASTERPIECE</u>,  French <u>MONOPOLY</u>, <u>FUNNY BONES</u>,
<u>AVALANCHE</u>, and he'll also send me <u>SMESS</u>, in case I decide to use it.
<u>Felicia</u> called. She had written to <u>Hank Simmons</u> and he called her
and spoke for an hour.  He is V.P. of Leisure Dynamics in charge of
corporate acquisition and is very happy with his job. <br>
Felicia is going to show him some things and wonders whether she
should include <u>Al Richter</u>'s <u>TRY-ANGLES</u>.  I said it was an
attractive compilation of little known standards.  Al is picking up his
games tomorrow but she'll probably keep <u>TRY-ANGLES</u>. <br>
Hank said that he'd like to have <u>BALI</u> and Felicia wondered
if it might do better with him.  I said that Lakeside didn't seem
to be doing too great and she agreed. <br>
Hank sent his regards to me.  Felicia asked what was the
thing of mine that Hank had liked just before he left Parker.
<u>THE RIGHT CONNECTIONS</u> - but Hallmark has it under option. <br>
Felicia mentioned <u>LOTTERY</u> as being a fun game I did rather
than a strategy game.  He'd like to see it, if it is returned
(did Felicia tell him that Parker was considering it?), Hank thinks
that family games are the coming thing. <br>
They spoke about the Funtastic line and Felicia wondered why
they hadn't taken <u>PSYCHE-PATHS</u>.  Hank said they thought that
<u>SCORE FOUR</u> was a great game. She asked me about <u>HEX-O-GRAM</u>
(why?) and I said there was a slight resemblance to
<u>PSYCHE-PATHS</u>.
I asked if she had definitely placed <u>PSYCHE-PATHS</u> with Learning
Games.  She is stalling them off, trying to get an answer from
M.B., since she'd rather put it where it will sell the most.
Told <u>Felicia</u> about speaking to <u>Marshall Lucas</u> (saying that "a friend"
had had him call me.  Agreed that I would keep <u>SKYSCRAPERS</u>
to show him when he comes here.  Also I'll show him <u>DIALEMMA</u>.
When he calls I'll remind him to call Felicia to set a date
to see her.  Also I'll call Felicia to tell her about it.
<u>Felicia</u> wrote to <u>Keith Tuggle</u> with condolences, but also asking
about <u>FOREIGN INTRIGUE</u> and <u>J'ACCUSE</u>.
Told <u>Felicia</u> I'd bring her the extra Ideal catalog I picked
at the press room at Toy Fair.
Rcd. a call from <u>Sandra Garson</u> who is doing a piece on adult
games for the American Airlines inflight magazine. <u>Jack</u> <br>
