Downtown to Felicia's at 9. Bill Garrity postponed his visit till 12:30. Went to
register at Toy Fair Press Room. Then to I went to Ideal. Met Zeke Rose
coming in. He took me in and showed me some new action games. Nothing new
in my type of game. He'll send me AUCTIONEER, TRAP, and DEAR ABBY.
To G.A.F. but they weren't set up yet.
To Schaper. Spoke to Harvey Shoemack, the P.R. man. He showed me
'OPTILE. Players in turn throw 2 dice and cover their board with tiles
of different shapes which are identified by number, one for each
die. The value is the number. Spaces with a "D" double the tile. A
"T" triple the tile.
