Mentioned <u>SCRABBLE</u> and <u>THE GODFATHER GAME</u>.
Looked at the book ''<u>HOW TO PLAY GO</u>'' and they said that in  <br>
some tournaments 4 1/2 points are added to white's territory. Called  <br>
Jules Cooper to tell him. On another line and left word for him to  <br>
call me back. Didn't.  <br>
Expected a call from <u>Marshall Lucas</u>, but didn't get one. (See 3/13).  <br>
Called <u>Esther Fink</u> (see 2/22) and made date for 3/20. I'll bring info  <br>
on my classification system. She mentioned that they are working  <br>
on developing games for school use. I said that developing games  <br>
was my specialty and she said that maybe I could work with them.
Drew up isometric drawings of <u>BEAN BAG TARGET</u>, <u>CONNECTION</u>, and <u>MILL</u>.

sell them to stores himself. I tried my best to disuade him  <br>
and I think I did. He'll make up some sample with the two versions  <br>
printed on the two sides of a folding board. He'll see if  <br>
Felicia can interest a manufacturer in the package. He was  <br>
thinking of sending some out to manufacturers himself, but  <br>
I told him that wouldn't be fair to Felicia. Argued about money -  <br>
he wanted to give me too much in case anything comes of it.  <br>
Took his telephone number:  <br>
{<u>Rudy Lopez</u>  <br>
{[phone number hidden for privacy]
Thinking about <u>DATA</u>; use the cards with the same slots  <br>
as I have now and with the address cards. Have a set of  <br>
60 markers which match the 60 cards. Under certain  <br>
circumstances can sort the cards you hold and take the corresponding  <br>
markers. Can score at times and then return the markers scored.  <br>
Another idea. Have sheets with 60 spaces corresponding to  <br>
the 60 cards. Object to mark them all off. have spaces  <br>
allowing each type to be sorted, say, 10 times. If don't get  <br>
them all in the 10 tries get a penalty for the missing ones.  <br>
Completing a vertical row (of 6) gives a free sort.
Thinking of my <u>GAME</u> idea of 4/17/71 and decided it  <br>
