15 THURSDAY * NOVEMBER 1973
319TH DAY * 46 DAYS TO COME

Call from Felicia. She heard from a secretary at Kohner
that Mr. Frankel will see us sometime in December. Felicia will
show all four items (POP-SHAPE-AND SHATTER, ECLIPSE, PAIR OFF,
and OVER 'N OVER) instead of just two.
She said that it would be helpful to S.P.I., since Brentano's is
selling their games if Dorothy Shapiro were to get a
subscription to S & T.
A new client - "The Young Group" with Mr. and Mrs. Young (he
was once a consultant at Parker) has a game called ALIMONY.
It is played on a MONOPOLY type board with a center portion
showing 10 steps to the courthouse. The object is to end up with
as much as possible of the property. There are small models
of the pieces of property, which are cute - but expensive.
She is thinking of submitting the game to Dynamic
Design (Parker wouldn't have anything to do with it). They now
have a 4-page disclosure form that has to be filled out.
Told Felicia about SPLIT.
When Owens-Illinois took MINEFIELD and the other item
Felicia asked for an advance of $1000 each. They didn't
give her an argument - but she still doesn't have the money.

2nd call from Felicia.
