1 FRIDAY - JUNE 1973
152ND DAY - 213 DAYS TO COME
Remembered that I had made a second board for SPECTRUM years
ago. It was faded on one fold of the back, but the front was
in better shape than the one I have been using.
Called R.G.I. to ask Bob Gellman as a favor to me to use my
name and Bob Champer's with our credits. He wasn't in
and I spoke to Stan. Later I called to check and Bob said
sure he'd do it.
Bob Champer called and I told him that PATTON is finally
completed. Told him that I couldn't get Isby's name on the credits,
but the historical material wasn't that great that it would
give him a lift. Bob agreed.
Drew up the 4 solutions for THE RIGHT CONNECTIONS, putting in
the colors on each dial.
Made up a rough set of HONORABLE RELATIONS pcs. [pieces] for to send to
Bob Johnson. Cut out two 6" x 6" squares to use for boards
and marked off the positions for pasting the partitions on one of
them (for the finished model).
Rcd. [received] a call from David Kribs. Wanted to know if I rcd. [received] the
copy of BEAT THE MARKET. Yes. The people who are putting out
ZILCH will probably be taking over BEAT THE MARKET. He'll get
7% royalty which he'll share with the fellow who originally put
it out. He'll let me know if it goes thru.
Showed HONORABLE RELATIONS puzzle to Phil Laurence. He solved one
of them.
Played HIT THE JACKPOT partners, Phil and BB against Annette and me.
It came out an exact tie - after I goofed towards the end.
Played SPECTRUM. Annette, who went first, pointed out that going
first was a disadvantage. I agreed and made a rule that in
case of a tie the player, among those tying, starting ahead
was the winner.
