11 MONDAY - DECEMBER 1972
346TH DAY - 20 DAYS TO COME
Called Jack Davis. Asked for glossies of IMAGE and
EVADE. He'll definitely send the former, and the
latter if he has one.
Going thru [through] the games I might use for my next two S & T
columns: - BEAT DETROIT (have a glossy), THE HOWARD HUGHES GAME
(have a glossy), MYWORD! (get glossy from Phil Orbanes), IMAGE,
BLOCK 'N SCORE (wrote to Gary Shirts for a glossy; also asked
if he had any simulation games suitable for my column.)
U.S. AUTO CLUB RACING GAME (wrote for glossy),
INTERNATIONAL SKI TEAM RACE (wrote for glossy), ARCHIEBALL -
which I'll have to write to Skor-Mor for. Remembered
that at Childcraft when I looked at it I saw that there
were 3 cards face up at each turn. If a player succeeds
in winning (by matching) a card he faces another card
and then plays again.
While speaking ____ I ask I called S & T to speak to Dale.
Not in but spoke to Red. My column the week after
X'Mas [Christmas] will be O.K.
Called Ken Morgan. Told him about meeting John Deegan on 12/8.
Ken is going to Florida next week. He'll call about setting
up a date when he gets back.
Called Eve Auchincloss twice to try and get a correction for
the STRATO TAC-TICS price into BOOK WORLD. Didn't call back.
Called Claude to tell him that BB didn't want Earl to
come here until after X'Mas [Christmas], because of the big group on
the 24th.
Claude asked about the copies of THE BOSS and MASTERPIECE
I have loaned him. I told him he could keep them as long
as he wishes, but when he is thru [through] with them to return them.
Sent check for $1.35 for a copy of THE BATTLE FLAG and the
game NOVA (see 12/8).
Clipped ad for STRAT-O-MATIC PRO FOOTBALL from POST.
Claude told me that 12 (I believe) branches of the
Queens Public Library have copies of AGOG.
Claude gave a talk on games at a brunch last Friday.
He'll give another in about a month.
