that I would be the featured
that I would be the feature guest on a game discussion. Jack  <br>
was annoyed about his going back on it, after taking the games.  <br>
I told Jack about the party for <u>THE GODFATHER GAME</u> and how the  <br>
games were grabbed.  <br>
They are moving in about a month or so, but are keeping their telephone  <br>
number.  <br>
I will call Jack with a report on the Xerox exhibit.
 
There were three telephone calls while I was gone, all men asking  <br>
for Mr. Sackson. They all asked when I'd be back. Dana didn't  <br>
get their <s>addres</s> names. // <u>Marvin Katz</u> telephone no. {[phone]}.  <br>
<u>Marvin Katz</u> called in the evening (the only one who did). He  <br>
has signed a contract to do a book for Stein & Day on the  <br>
game and toy industry. It is not an exhaustive study  <br>
(a gal has spent some 2 years doing one for Viking) but rather  <br>

We'll meet at the Donnell Library next Tuesday at  <br>

article on <u>MONOPOLY</u> for him to look at and possibly borrow.  <br>
 
At <u>Jack Davis</u>' he told me that ''<u>PARADE</u>'' (a newspaper supplement)  <br>
had approached him about whether 3M had any "peace" games,  <br>
as opposed to "War" games, which they don't have. He thought  <br>
that a "Peace" <u>GAME</u> should have a market. Told him I'd think  <br>
of one. Also told him about <u>BOOM OR GOLDEN AGE</u>, and that it didn't  <br>
go anywhere.  <br>
Asked Jack if he had an open copy of <u>OH-WAH-REE</u> so that I could  <br>
get a repro of the rules with some additional games that I  <br>
