Division." He wants to put out a series of "Portfolio of Games" <br> | Division." He wants to put out a series of "Portfolio of Games" | ||
with <u>CHESS</u>, <u>GO</u>; some original games - <u>NEXUS</u>, <u>PIPS</u>, etc. He wants | |||
to put out <u>PLANK</u> in the first series. He is interested, for the second | |||
series, in <u>PATTERNS II</u>, <u>LAP</u>, <u>THREE MUSKETEERS</u>, <u>HOLD THAT LINE</u>. He also | |||
asked whether he could steal <u>BATTLESHIP</u> and <u>JOTTO</u>. | |||
Call from <u>Felicia</u>. Her acquaintance, Ruth Millard who did P.R. [public relations] for M.B. [Milton Bradley] is | |||
interested in working for 3M, <s>She called Bill Caru</s> She, Felicia, wanted | |||
<u>Lee Horn</u>'s telephone number and I found it for her in the | |||
folder with 3M publicity. <br> | |||
She rcd. [received] a very nice letter from <u>Chuck Titus</u>. He thanked her for her | |||
efforts for <u>PSYCHE-PATHS</u> but realizes that she won't be selling it. | |||
He'd like his hand-made set returned. I told Felicia that, since I have | |||
it, I'll mail it to him. <br> | |||
She rcd. [received] a letter from <u>Bob Johnson</u>. He'll be glad to look at things | |||
in May. However he was very anxious to see 2-hand strategy | |||
games. I told her about <u>DISPERSAL</u>. I'll bring it to her Monday and she'll | |||
send it out to him. I wondered why he kept wanting more and more | |||
2-hand strategy games. She figures that Springbok will be putting | |||
out a long series of them, similar to their jig-saw puzzles. | |||
2nd call from <u>Felicia</u>. She called <u>Bill Caruson</u> to try and get some info | |||
for Ruth Millard. <br> | |||
She asked Bill also about the games. The gamettes will continue as | |||
they are for 1973. Then they will investigate "bulking them up" so that | |||
they can sell for a higher price. <u>PROFIT</u> will be considered again for '74.<br> | |||
Bill Caruson said the older games are dropping off. Felicia said - <u>ACQUIRE</u> | |||
too? But Bill said that it it holding up. Felicia said that he sounds more <br> | |||
