While I was out Dane rcd. a call from <u>Carl Eisenberg</u>  <br>
who wants me to call back. Another caller who said he'd  <br>
call back but didn't leave his name. (Later found out  <br>
it was <u>Phil Orbanes</u>.)
Getting <u>JUNGLE RACE</u> and <u>FAIRY TALE GAME</u> into shape  <br>
for tomorrow.

(cont. from 7/20)  [7/20]
player must do sentences in 3 different tenses.  <br>
Auxiliary verbs such as have, had, etc. are free when used with  <br>
another verb. In one round the same word can be used  <br>
twice but once it is used in a round a marker is placed  <br>
on it and it can't be used in a later round. (Rough idea.)
To <u>Reiss</u> Associates and then to <u>Carl Eisenberg</u>'s  <br>
office at 150 Broadway (where he used to have his office).  <br>
He said the Hoi Polloi is definitely going ahead with a  <br>
series of inexpensive games. Either I can supply them  <br>
or they will get them elsewhere. They'd like about 6 as a  <br>
start, but they can be fed at intervals rather than all at once.  <br>
He said there would be advances. I said I'd have to talk  <br>
to <u>Phil Orbanes</u>. He said he didn't know why, but I said I wouldn't  <br>
go behind Phil's back. He called Phil and we had a three way  <br>
discussion on a conference phone. A little discussion as to whose  <br>
idea it was to do p. & p. games. Phil & I thought it was  <br>
<u>Herb Hochstetter</u>. Carl said it was <u>Manny * Lefkowitz</u>.
We discussed getting the 6 games back from <u>Bob Hallowell</u> ^<u>XANDO</u>, etc.  <br>
(who is almost certainly going under) but Reiss doesn't want Hallowell to  <br>
know. Phil and I said that we'd supply the games and will  <br>
go to Carl's Monday morning to discuss it after  <br>
talking together. Reiss has an arrangement with TWA to use the games  <br>
on the planes.//* He wanted them to compete with 3M's Gamettes.
To Simulations, but not to see <u>Phil</u> who I knew was leaving before.  <br>
Spoke to <u>Al Nofi</u> about the complaints about non-  <br>
