12 THURSDAY - OCTOBER 1972
286TH DAY - 80 DAYS TO COME


Called Eve Auchincloss and told her I hadn't been payed [paid] for my BOOK WORLD column. She'll check on that, and wheth when it will be run.

Wrote up the rules for JUNGLE RACE, making use of a quick set BB wrote up. BB typed them, finishing up fairly late. The diagram still has to be added. Actually BB brought up the point that my original diagram showed a player going in the wrong direction. I came up with a new one with her help.

Looking thru [through] S & T no. 34. Centerfold game is ARMEGEDDON. There are ads for Sim. Pub. Games 1812, LA GRANDE ARMÉE, and THE MARNE. Rod Walker discusses ORIGINS OF WORLD WAR II in his column "Power Politics." St. Martin's Press has an advertisement for a book THE WAR GAME - with lots of material on tabletop miniatures.

Made a new layout for POST-HASTE, as shown. Played with BB on a rough board. Seems O.K. [Drawing of an oval shaped board with a path of rectangular spaces around the edge with colors yellow, green, red, and blue. The colors are not in a repeating pattern.]
