----
Thought of an idea for naming the pieces in <u>REALM</u> - "Sorcerer,"
"Thrall" and "Castle." Later when <u>Phil</u> called I told him.
He definitely liked Sorcerer. He is not sure about Thrall.
He came up with "Tower" instead of castle and I agreed.
<u>Phil</u> wanted to give me <u>Herb Hochstetter</u>'s address to send him
the Post games (<u>SUPER-TAC-TOE</u> etc.) but I said that it
would be better to let Herb call me and make arrangements
when he has something set up.

with additions to <u>ATLANTICA</u> - which originally was in no. 37.
Also delivered by Post Office was copy of <u>THE HOWARD HUGHES GAME</u>.
Called <u>Eve Auchincloss</u>. My addition to the <u>''BOOK WORLD''</u> column
should not be more than 450 words at the most. She'd like
some change in the intro to bring in the <s>ye</s> end of year theme.
Called <u>Irv Lubow</u> at Renwal (since <u>Phil</u> said they are moving.
to Penna. soon). I asked him about getting back my rights
to <u>TAM-BIT</u> and <u>TAKE FIVE</u>. He suggested mailing him copies
of the contract and a letter requesting the return, which
he can sign and mail back to me.
Call from <u>Ken Morgan</u>. He has been in Europe for some time
and may move to Austria permanently.  <br>
He wondered if he should contact <u>Felicia</u> about trying to place
<u>MOVIE MOGULS</u> with another company. I thought he could do as well
by himself. He'll start with Family Games (Urban Systems)
and I gave him the address.) <br>
He has another <u>GAME</u> almost finished. <br>
His partner thought that I had done <u>MOVIE STARS</u> for R.G.I.
Told him that I definitely did not.
