written before and I answered him. Discussed games in  <br>
general, including <u>CHESS</u>, <u>GO</u>, <u>BRIDGE</u>, <u>MONOPOLY</u>, <u>CAREERS</u>,  <br>
<u>SCRABBLE</u>, <u>VENTURE</u>, and <u>MONAD</u>.
 
To R.G.I. Went over the slides with <u>Bob Gellman</u> for  <br>
<u>HOLIDAY</u>. He still has to order a few nore. (He called down  <br>
for sandwiches and then asked me for my share.)  <br>
Took a copy of <u>MOVIE MOGULS</u> to display at Xerox.  <br>
Apparently they have come to terms with Ken Morgan.  <br>
<u>Erik Naiburg</u> (spelling?) came in while I was there. He thanked  <br>
me for the review of <u>CAVEAT EMPTOR</u> in ''<u>BOOK WORLD</u>''. Told  <br>
him about the Xerox exhibit and he gave me a copy of  <br>
<u>VECTOR</u> for it. Asked him if there were any new games  <br>
coming out this year by Plan B. No.  <br>
While waiting for Bob to finish with someone else looked at  <br>
<u>HAUL THE FREIGHT</u> (Bar-Zim '62). Have all the rules in '63  <br>
diary except that I say that players can buy from  <br>
1 to 10 shares of stock, their choice. Actually the stock  <br>
certificates are in denominations of 10 or 100 and, I believe,  <br>
certain spaces allow one or the other.  <br>
Bar-Zim shares the office with R.G.I. They suggested  <br>
the R.G.I. might like to put on <u>HAUL THE FREIGHT</u>. Bob asked  <br>
my opinion of it and I said it was fair.  <br>
Bar-Zim has an inexpensive set of triangular dominos called  <br>
<u>TRI-DOMINOS</u> and an inexpensive alignment game on a 4x4x4  <br>
field called <u>TRI</u>.
 
To <u>Felicia</u>'s. We were both rather discouraged over the whole game  <br>
business. She thinks that 3M will try to make a very tough  <br>
contract from now on, but that we shouldn't accept a bad  <br>
one.  <br>
She had the contract from Hallmark for <u>PLANES</u> (3 copies  <br>
so I took one with me) and it is a better contract  <br>
with the "Hold Harmless" clause not included. Also took the  <br>
check for $375.00.  <br>
<u>Bill Dohrmann</u> also took <u>Lillian Voegelin</u>'s <u>FOUR LETTER WORDS</u> with  <br>
him that day he came to I.S. to look at games.  <br>
<u>ENVIRONMENT</u> finally reached Dynamic Design, almost 2 months <br>
from the time she sent it. <br>
Went next door to talk to <u>Herb Roth</u>. Asked him if he'd check <br>
with the president of Dynamic Design next time he spoke to  <br>
him whether he will be sending me games for the Xerox  <br>
exhibit. No real answer. Looked at flyers for the new  <br>
Dynamic Design games. <u>EMPEROR OF CHINA</u> - seems to be a  <br>
war game. <u>I-CHING</u> - seems to be just the fortune telling.  <br>
<u>LIE, CHEAT, & STEAL</u> - political game with opportunities to cheat,  <br>
within the rules. <u>DRUG ATTACK</u>. <u>AIRPORT</u> - seems to be a  <br>
