Patchett is working on a game <u>WIPE OUT</u> and a <u>GAME</u>  <br>
Patchett is working on a game <u>WIPE OUT</u> and a <u>GAME</u>  <br>
based on Howard Hughes, which Frank will agent for him  <br>
based on Howard Hughes, which Frank will agent for him  <br>
(??). I mentioned
(??). I mentioned <u>ECCENTRIC</u> and Patchett said that it  <br>
might be by <u>Gini Scott</u>. She was working on a Howard Hughes game.  <br>
Patchett, incidentally, recently joined  <br>
<u>THE AMERICAN GAMES ASSOCIATION</u>.  <br>
I took his address:  <br>
{<u>Tom Patchett</u>  <br>
{1843 Spruce St.  <br>
{Berkeley, Cal. 94709  <br>
If I don't receive the game Frank sent, I'll write  <br>
and Tom will send me another.  <br>
Incidentally, <u>WIPE OUT</u> is based on nuclear war.  <br>
I told him that his name and game sounded familiar.  <br>
Later found that I had a clipping on <u>DEALER MCDOPE DEALING GAME</u>.  <br>
(See 2/3.)
 
Started writing up <u>4000 A.D.</u> for ''<u>S & T</u>''. Saw I couldn't  <br>
finish it today and have it typed. Called <u>Mark Katz</u> and  <br>
changed date from tomorrow to Wednesday.  <br>
While writing up <u>4000 A.D.</u>. I thought of a p & p version of  <br>
getting 4 in a row on a 4 x 4 x 4 field. The levels can  <br>
be represented by circles of different sizes place[d] in  <br>
a row - see illustration.
