11 WEDNESDAY - APRIL 1973
101ST DAY - 264 TO COME

Call from Vivianne Meyers (see 4/3). She can't make it today to show me the Mozart GAME. Set date for 4/25.

BB typed the PUSHOVER rules and I drew the diagrams. To Boston Post Road for reproductions.
At John's bought a package of small plastic beads for possible use in identifying the cubes in 3D BOXES.

Call from Earl Perel. He will be in town next week. Set up a date for 4/19. He asked about DON'T BLOW A FUSE and I told him that Al Richter was just starting a new job.
Called Claude and he can make it 4/19.

Working a little on 3D BOXES, including sanding the ends of the tubes.

it in wrong direction.
Win by finishing all your contracts (do all have to be connected together?). By tying in with a switch it is possible to make use of anot track another player has placed.
Felicia asked me to check whether Dick Harris of M.B. [Milton Bradley] had seen CONTRACT. (Did at home and found that he didn't and later told Felicia. Also told Felicia that there was a slight resemblance to M.B.'s [Milton Bradley's] SQUARE MILE, which is no longer being published.)
Felicia said she is not sending for WAR GAME (see 3/28). Parker and M.B. [Milton Bradley] told her they wouldn't touch a war game. Though Garrity had mentioned that he thinks that there might well be an interest in war games now that the actual war is over.
When Garrity was here I asked him about OPTILE and
THE MONEY (AMERICAN EXPRESS) MONEY CARD (GAME). He said that each had sold about 25,000 so far. They figure that they need sales of 150,000 each to make TV advertising worthwhile, and 75,000 should be sold by the Stationery Show time.
I asked about review copies and he said he'd tell the secretary at the showroom to give me copies when they are ready - in about two weeks.

To Simulations. Made repros of an article on one of Alice's
relatives and her BRIDGE prowess for Felicia.
From Phil F. got a mailing carton for three games and dupli-
cate copies of the following:- PHALANX, DARK AGES, 1812,
LA GRANDE ARMEE. Also copies of MOVES #1 thru #6.

To AIN Plastics and bought some more tubes, etc. to have
spares. Also bought a glue dispenser. For [illegible strikeout] 3D BOXES.

Rcd. a letter from Henryk Szwarce, the inventor of IMAGE.
