25 TUESDAY * SEPTEMBER 1973
268TH DAY * 97 DAYS TO COME
Call from Felicia. She rcd. [received] a letter from Ruth Shaler with a
clipping on HOLIDAY from her hometown paper. Told her I'd
borrow it sometime and get a repro [reproduction] - it has a good mention
of me. Felicia said she'd ask Ruth to send me a clipping.
Ruth will be visiting New York in a few weeks.
Letter from Haar Hoolim. He bought three German games - SPECTRUM,
TOPOLOGIK, and CONTACTIC. They also publish ATTACKE,
WORT-WEXEL, PHALANX, BLOCKADE, and CANYON. Mentions UP,
some GAME ideas, PATTERNS II, MASTER MIND, BATTLESHIP,
and STACK-UP.
Rcd. [received] a letter with the list price of THE DOT GAME.
Call from Bob Champer. He asked if he should start working on
MACARTHUR. I told him that he could do start the research, but he shouldn't
do much before we get some money. Told him that I had two
more copies of PATTON for him. He asked me to give one to David
Isby. I'll bring them both to Isby when I go down to Simulations.
2nd call from Felicia. Next Monday some big shot is coming in
with 3 management GAMEs. She'd like me to come there while
he shows them. Told her I would if I could find the time.
She finally got a call from Jules Cooper, who she tried to contact for
some time. He will send Charly Light (spelling?) to look at
the things she has to show. The only one of mine I thought
might be a possibility is LOTTERY.
Stan Chess called her and will arrange to pick up
George Bredehorn's games.
Sent $9.00 for a 3-year extension to my PLAYTHINGS extension subscription.
Earl Perel called. He'd like to set up a NYGA meeting, probably
this Thursday. He tried calling Claude before me, but he wasn't
in. I told him that when Claude calls him back he should
set up the details and then have Claude call me.
Earl would like to try a new idea for his ASTROCASTICS.
He asked me if Al Richter had done any more work on
DON'T BLOW A FUSE. Told him that I had forgotten to ask
and suggested that he call Al. Said he would.
