Rcd. [received] a letter from <u>Rose Wilson</u> of NEO Press. Also a
(duplicate) of a "Supplement on <u>POLY-Y</u>."
Called <u>Claude</u>. He said we'll play his new game <u>WHITE ELEPHANTS</u>
this Thursday evening. He suggested a NYGA meeting
and we agreed on Thurs. [Thursday] Nov. [November] 2 or Fri. [Friday] Nov. [November] 3, probably
at Arthur's.
Called <u>Arthur</u>. His house will be fine. He'll check with <u>Wald</u>
and get back to me with their choice of the 2 days.
<u>Lil Grand</u> (our neighbor) was cleaning up her house and
brought over three game boards instead of throwing them away.
<u>SORRY</u>, <u>CLUE</u>, <u>PHILIP MARLOW DETECTIVE GAME</u>. There was a
spinner with the latter game and I added it to my set.
Looked at it briefly and saw there were cards with
circular holes into which secret inserts were placed. I think
a good <u>GAME</u> could be worked out on this mechanism.
(Put the three boards in the basement.)

He has a good relationship with <u>John Scarne</u>. He has a game
<u>SCARNE BACCARAT</u> which has been adopted by a number of
