Rcd. a note
Rcd. a note from <u>Ken Hoffman</u> - (I guess) with two letters  <br>
about my ''<u>S & T</u>'' column. One asked for info on <u>LENSMAN</u>. The  <br>
other suggests that I review <u>EMPEROR OF CHINA</u>.
 
Rcd. an envelope from <u>Alice McElhone</u> with material on her  <br>
brother, his game <u>TRIPPPLES</u> (pretty complete), and a copy of  <br>
a review by <u>Vernhuist</u> of ''<u>CHICAGO TRIBUNE</u>'' in which he  <br>
gives mentions of <u>TRIPPPLES</u>, <u>A GAME FOR LIFE</u> (which  <br>
includes excercising), and <u>SHOVE - IT</u>.
 
Called <u>Earl</u> to thank him for the invite yesterday. Only Claude  <br>
came and didn't stay long.  <br>
<u>Claude</u> told me that he had told Earl that he, I, and the  <br>
<u>Amberstone</u>s were working on games for a company, and that  <br>
since it was the Amberstone's contract we couldn't insist that  <br>
Earl be included. I told him that I felt bad about it too.  <br>
He was understanding.  <br>
I'll drive over there some evening as soon as my work load eases.  <br>
