To Fred Fencht's. John Deegan, who is now president on "Orban Systems Products, Inc." there already. (Fred had called me just as I was leaving to say that John was coming early.)

Showed John WILDCAT - which Fred had redone quite attractively, AIR BATTLE, SWORDSMAN, TAKE-A-WORD and SUPER-TAC-TOE - which I brought with me. He seemed to like them. He tried to set up an appointment for Dick Rosen to look at them this afternoon but couldn't arrange it. Probably toward the end of next week.

They are trying to float a stock issue and their future plans will depend on whether it goes thru or not. They will depend on whether it goes thru or not. They will be coming to New York a lot until it is determined.

They are still actively bargaining with Bob Gellman about taking over R.G.I. I told him that HOLIDAY was mine. In discussing finances Fred said that he would want about $1500 to $1700 per game for the artwork - some of which he already did and finishing the rest. I said I'd want royalties. Deegan said that the only games they are paying 5% royalties are THE GODFATHER GAME and THE HOWARD HUGHES GAME. On others they pay as little as 2%.
