<br>She was in touch with <u>Bob Gellman</u> and, at his request,
sent the <u>HOLIDAY</u> contract to him so that he could change
the address, etc. She gave him some of her contacts,
such as "Yankee Peddler" that she built up with <u>BALI</u> so that
he can use them for <u>HOLIDAY</u> and <u>PATTON</u>. Next week she'll
let him look at her whole file.
<br>3rd call. She wondered if anything was happening with
Viewmaster. Told her that the whole thing fizzled. She
has a non-game item, by Dennis I believe, that he did
with Viewmaster in mind. She could show it elsewhere however,
and <s>I</s> my opinion was that that would probably be
more lucrative.

<u>DERBY DOWNS</u>, <u>ALL PRO GOLF</u>, <u>THE SCRAMBLER</u> - which seems to

Ordered another set of 6'x0"x6'0"x18" shelving from Sears. There

for him.
