14 THURSDAY - SEPTEMBER 1972
258TH DAY - 108 DAYS TO COME
While a "warm body" again I wrote the rules for VIEWLINE.
Bought some pencils, erasors [erasers], and a game CRUMMY RUMMY
at the "Hardware Jungle."
Dimissed [dismissed] early and walked to Canal St. looked at the plastic
stores. Their prices are high. Bought 100 plastic discs in
a number of 10 different colors for $3.50.
To Felicia's. Not in. Left the rules for PROFIT and PAYOFF
across the hall.
At Kopy-Kwik bought 8 dozen colored pencils for $1.50; a
package of 1 1/2" x 3" self-stik labels; and a $1 package of
correct-o-type.
Played VIEWLINE with BB testing a scoring variation. First
player to complete one line score 1 point; first to com-
plete 2 lines scores 2 points; etc. up to 6 points for 6 lines.
It worked fairly well, but I decided (and BB insisted) that
it wasn't worth including. // BB typed the rules.
Arthur called while I was out. Date next Tuesday morning - B & B
at 10.
Claude called. Earl called him earlier. I called Earl and arranged
for him to come here for supper tomorrow night, and to sleepover.
Earl already spoke to Peter and he's busy. I called Izzy. He'd
like to come, but has a CHESS tournament Saturday. Called Claude
and told him the arrangements.
Made up the equipment for GRASS ROOTS and POST HASTE.
(cont. from 9/15)[9/15]
chance to play.
Earl met an insurance man (H. Chester Slocum Jr., Manager
Equal Opportunity Staff Personnel Dept., Equitable Life Assurance
Society, [phone number]) who is interested in a GAME that will
teach school children about Insurance, and Earl told him about
our group. Earl wants me to call him and explore it fur-
ther, but I said I don't want to take on any new projects now.
Earl left me Slocum's card and asked me to call him when I
was less loaded.
Earl slept over and the 2 of us walked Claude to the subway.
(Phil and Dale had the car on a trip to Canada.)
