Rcd. [received] a letter from Fay Hartog with the contract revision releasing foreign rights to AGOG to me.

Finished the new Sicily board for PATTON.

Tried to drill holes in the 1 1/2" squares but only succeeded in doing one without shattering the plastic - for PATTON.

Call from Earl. In New York. Told him that I was intending to set up a date to go to Al Richter's to drill the plastic. He'd like to go to discuss DON'T BLOW A FUSE. Later called Al & set a date for Tuesday evening. Called Earl & left a message for him to call back. Didn't.

Arthur called. Nothing specifically about games.

Cut all the 1/16" thick plastic into 1 1/2" squares.
