----
<u>Felicia</u> called. She had a call from <u>Bob Johnson</u>. They are get-
ting things ready to exhibit at stationary show and are
very, very busy. He likes <u>FOCUS</u> so much that he is afraid
that he is not objective. He gave it to two other people for
their opinions. We should have an answer in about two weeks.
The option on <u>COUNTER-INTELLIGENCE</u> is being renewed.
<u>Kaplan</u>'s puzzle <u>TACTICS</u> is being returned. A number of
testers did all 4 puzzles in 20 minutes.
She has another <s>gam</s> <u>GAME</u> from <u>Mr. White</u>, the inventor fo
<u>CUBITS</u>. She doesn't think it is very good, but she'll show it
to me next time I come in.
<u>Alan Turoff</u>'s <s>ch</s> auto <u>CHESS</u> gadget bounces all over. Too expensive
The original owners of <u>WINE CELLAR</u> and <u>CHUG-A-LUG</u> want to sell
their equity in the royalties for $30,000. Felicia is surprised that
Dynamic Design won't buy it themselves. She hears that <u>WINE CELLAR</u>
is selling the best of any of their games.
She hears rumors that 3M may be buying Crisloid. Mainly for their
<u>CHESS</u> sets.
She called to speak to <u>Fabio</u> (see 10/24). He was on jury duty but <u>Fay
Hartog</u> was very pleasant.
Working on <u>S & T</u> column. Did <u>MYWORD!</u>, copied <u>ON-WORDS</u> (from
<u>BOOK WORLD</u> column), did <u>SQUARE OFF</u>, copied <u>THE BOSS</u>, and
started <u>STRATO CHECKERS</u>.
