6 WEDNESDAY - DECEMBER 1972

34ST DAY - 25 DAYS TO COME


At a bazaar BB arranged to meet Edith. Edith gave her a bag of plastic pcs. [pieces] with a groove that were unfinished buttons. I'll keep them for possible game parts. [there is a drawing of a circle with two lines diagonally from right-top to left -bottom]

Wrote up the rules for FREE FORM. Made a new set of the cards for THE BRAIN GAME, but did not put contact on BB typed the FREE FORM rules.

Fred Feucht called. He has not been successful in getting to see Marshall Lucas of M.B. However, Urban Systems contacted him. When Bob Hallowell was trying to salvage Gametime he presented the idea of p & p games to them. Now they are interested. At first Fred suggested our flying to Bos- ton to see Dick Rosen. But John Deegan, who now runs the game part of Urban Systems will be in town this week. I suggested getting his opinion before flying to Boston - at considerable expense.

Fred contacted Urban Systems and set up a date with Deegan for 10 A.M. this coming Friday. I asked which games he had there:- WILDCAT, AIR BATTLE, SWORDSMAN, and TAKE-A-WORD. Told him I might bring another.

Called Phil Orbanes to tell him about Fred's call. I asked what he thought about showing SUPER-TAC-TOE to Urban systems and he said that since we hadn't heard from Herb Hochstelter, I could go ahead.
