22 SUNDAY - OCTOBER 1972
TWENTY-FIRST SUNDAY AFTER TRINITY - 70 DAYS TO COME

Klara Karlan called. In TIMES Magazine section they saw an ad for "Gamut of Games" and Bloomingdale's - for the games BRIDGETTE and MY WORD! They said I should sue! Told them I knew about the company, and might be working with them.

Made the equipment for SUPER-TAC-TOE, THE PRIZE COLOR GAME, THE GO-ROUND GAME.

Finished up the following boards with the lettering:- AIR BATTLE, SWORDSMAN, WILDCAT, THE GO-ROUND GAME, THE ADD-A-LETTER GAME.

Played SUPER-TAC-TOE with BB. She liked it but couldn't see to play it well. I decided to add a rule that black spaces can't touch, even at a corner.

Rcd. [received] a call from Irving Woods of Western Publishing late in the evening. Apparantly [apparently] he wanted to find out if WOMAN'S DAY ^(see 8/28) had found someone to do ONE AT A TIME BY THE MILLIONS. (he said something about his girl trying to get in touch.) I told him that no one had been picked yet - but that it looks doubtful whether the project will go thru [through]. But for definite word to call Channing.

Claude called. He picked up a game MOVIE STARS which he wanted to show me when I was there [illegible word crossed out] on Thursday. It turned out it was the R.G.I. game that I already have.

He wanted to go to a Friday night session at Simulations [illegible word crossed out]. Told him I was bringing my S & T column in the following this coming Friday. Probably we'll meet there.

(Cont. from 10/25) [10/30]

George Subtitled this game "The Inter-Course Game." Stan says that George can't do "Imitation of Life" games.

[started 10/30]

(cont. from 11/1) [11/1]

Ken will give me a call at the beginning of Dec. [December] about getting together.

Jack Davis called. He has a copy of IMAGE for me. Told him there was no hurry since I had borrowed one from Felicia. I'll pick it up when I'm in the nieghborhood.

By myself tried THE GO-ROUND GAME with my idea of 10/30. Very dull.

Call from Arthur. He's contacting Wexler tomorrow about a pos- sible date next week. Wanted my schedule.
