2 SATURDAY - DECEMBER 1972

337TH DAY - 29 DAYS TO COME


Added a green border to the paths in JUNGLE RACE. BB says that it is now much easier to see.

Rcd. [received] a copy of the letter Leonard Willet sent to N.Y. State.

At a bazaar bought the following four games for a total of $5.75:- FERRY COMMAND (M.B.), SKOOP (Lowell), KOMMISSAR (S & R), and NO PEEKIE (Ideal). Also bought 4 plastic viewers called "Reflections" for a $1.50 total. Also bought 2- 5,000 staple boxes for $1.00, and 25 pads for $1.

Felicia called me in the evening. Didn't get a chance to call before. Told her about Stan Chess, George Bredehorn, and CLUE-WORDS and MULLIGAN. She had word from her answering service, that she had a call from a Stan Chess, but when she called she just got a (very pleasant) secretary. Now she'll know what it is a- bout when he calls again.

I brought up the matter of her call on 11/24. Dynamic Design wants to copy 3M as close as they can get away with, but she'll protect her clients.

Ennio V. Racinelli will be in town next week to look at things. She'll let me know when as soon as she hears. I suggested my bringing FREE FORM and THE BRAIN GAME and possibly a rework of ONE AT A TIME BY THE MILLIONS. They are also interested in puzzles.

Felicia didn't go into details, but I gather that Lillian Voegelin was approach by Benko and Goldfarb (who have an operations like Marvin Glass) to work with them. At first Felicia was angry but then told Lillian to do what she thought would be best for her. Lillian decided to stay with Felicia. (Ideal is not going into adult games.)

Later thought of bringing FOREIGN INTRIGUE for Ennio Racinelli to look at.

Went over Sample Games III and I for STRATO TAC-TICS and made a listing of the errors to send to Walter Dykoski.
