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> | |||

(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 Poloi [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>. <br> | |||
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. <br> | |||
Reiss has an arrangement with TWA to use the games on the <br> | |||
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> | |||
