I asked about the
I asked about the beanbags and they had another 100 made,  <br>
but had them filled with birdseed, as being less sharp. But  <br>
they are too light to slide down the ramp. They are still  <br>
"learning about beanbag technology".  <br>
I asked if I could ride up to pick up the box of game  <br>
parts he took back from Rochester. But Sym lives close to  <br>
Marylin and will drop it off tomorrow morning.
 
Finished the marking cards for <u>COMPUTER BINGO</u>. Took it  <br>
with me when we went to Felicia's but we never got the  <br>
chance to play.  <br>
<u>Felicia</u> told me that the girls who did <u>JUNK</u> had met  <br>
someone in Connecticut who did a <u>GAME</u> (probably a <u>MONOPOLY</u>  <br>
variation) and wants to go into business with his game and  <br>
theirs, plus another children's <u>GAME</u> they did. He expects  <br>
them to put up some of the money.  <br>
<u>Bradford Bailey</u> brought her some children's card games she liked.  <br>
<u>Earl</u> called with suggestions for <u>COMPUTER BINGO</u>. Have company names on  <br>
the boards and have peoples names on the <br>
markers and the object is to place people in jobs. Thanked him.  <br>
Asked about <u>ITINERARIES</u>. He is thinking of adding  <br>
populations of the cities as an additional possibility for  <br>
determining the winner of the trick. But is going to  <br>
come down to 48 cards.
 
Finally rcd. the package (invoice date 3/20) from <u>Alfons Rubbens</u>  <br>
with <u>4000 A.D.</u>, <u>SPECULATE</u>, and <u>CHESSWORD</u>.  <br>
Rcd. <u>FRANCE 1940</u> from A.H.  <br>

short of cash and I loaned her $5. She will show  <br>
<u>TAM-BIT</u>, <u>TAKE FIVE</u>, and <u>PSYCHE-PATHS</u> to Kontrell next week.  <br>
Didn't get a chance to tell her what <u>Petricelli</u> told me.  <br>
To Small Wonders. <u>Tom Atwater</u> will drive up for lunch tomorrow.  <br>
He gave me a copy of ''<u>SNOWFLAKE</u>''. It contains two games -  <br>
<u>SNOWFALL</u> and <u>GLACIER</u>.  <br>
I fooled around with a <u>PUZZLE</u> whose name and details I  <br>
didn't get. There are a number of equilateral triangles which are  <br>
strung together as shown.
 
[Diagram of 8 triangles pointing down, connected at corners. Alternating black and white in color.]
 
There are 7 different patterns (one for each day) to be formed by  <br>
folding the triangles together. Some have empty interior spaces.  <br>
To Hausen. Asked <u>Mr. Tripp</u> to send me a glossy and the list price  <br>
and an address for <u>LAND-BARON</u>.
