Dana will want to y use the car tomorrow. Since I promised to drive Earl home, I called him & changed out date to Thursday.

To Simulations. Spoke to Jim D. and got things pretty well smoother out. I'll have a listing of non-war games for him go to get feedback on for ready for S&T #41, about the beginning of October.
Took my column back from Redmund and will add short reviews of STARLORD, HYPERCHESS and HYPERCHECKERS. I'll get it back to him at the beginning of next week.

When I called BB she told me that Felicia had called. Went there.
She had a long talk with Bob Johnson. Bob is going to have a long talk with Jim Goldsberry and try to get "holding money" for the following: PE-LING, ANOTHER, RED LETTER, TROMINO GO, DIGIT, DUEL, and TRIAGO.
WINDOW PAINS, TOTALLY, TRIPLE CROSS are being sent back. Also COUNTER-INTELLIGENCE, PITFALL, INDIAN CHESS, and IMPULSE.
I asked about SHAPE AND SHATTER and she'll check with Bob Johnson when he reports to her, probably at the end of next week.
TROTTER is in production, as a sample of that type of game. They are running into problems, a lot of them, with the pieces. I asked about the check for HONORABLE RELATIONS. She spoke to Bob about it and he'll check with Burt.
They are keeping PLANES & FOCUS, but there is "still time to run" on the original advance.
Gave Felicia the contract form that Bob Gellman gave me (for PATTON) with my comments penciled in. She'll follow up on it.
Took the rules for MAGIC WAR TRAILS to read at home. There is no hurry since she is not showing anything to Hallmark until all the present things are settled.
