<u>INDIAN CHESS</u>.
<u>INDIAN CHESS</u>.
At the Gift Show she met <u>Pat Duncan</u> of The Puzzle Factory. Pat said  <br>
that <u>THE DICTIONARY GAME</u> is taking off, and they are  <br>
interested in other word games. Felicia wondered if they  <br>
had seen <u>SPELLBINDER</u>. I said I'd check. (They didn't.)  <br>
(Later thought they might be interested in <u>X-CHANGE-WORD</u>.)  <br>
Felicia spoke to the Springbok salesmen and they are very  <br>
enthusiastically waiting for the puzzle line -  <br>
<u>FITTING & PROPER</u>, <u>RIGHT CONNECTIONS</u>, etc.  <br>
<u>Chuck Dougherty</u> contacted <u>Bob Gellman</u> about running the  <br>
factory. Bob is interested but told him not to make a  <br>
special trip in. I told Felicia about seeing <u>WHITE HOUSE</u>  <br>
and <u>VINCE LOMBARDI'S GAME</u> in John's. We both hope he is  <br>
not going under.  <br>
Felicia asked me about who I get Parker Brother's games from.  <br>
Told her <u>Mike Alber</u>. She will call me tomorrow to get his number  <br>
(to get games for Rappaports) since she is at home today.
Called "Publisher's Central Bureau" to ask about the book  <br>
''<u>MATHEMATICAL DIVERSIONS</u>''. It is out of stock and they'll send a refund.
Ordered <u>MIDGARD</u> (see 8/3) and <u>NUCLEAR DESTRUCTION</u> and  <br>
<u>BATTLE PLAN</u> (see 8/4).
Played three games of <u>TRIPPPLES</u> with Dana. Good, but rather short.
Sent 3 letters asking for glossies of <u>STRAT TAC-TICS</u>, <u>TRIPPPLES</u>,  <br>
<u>SPACE CHESS</u>, and <u>DIMENSIONS</u>.
<u>Arthur</u> called. He and <u>Wald</u> have come up with two games:  <br>
<u>INVISIBLE MAN</u> and <u>DON JUAN</u>. They are not sure whether they'll  <br>
work on <u>UP THE ORGANIZATION</u> or not.
Sent in an expense account to <u>WOMAN'S DAY</u> for my trip to Baltimore.
