Rcd. [received] a copy of THE DOT GAME and a very pleasant letter from David L. White.

Called Felicia. Keith Tuggle called her yesterday and they talked for a long time. Bill Caruson has moved up and out of games completely. Dick Christianson (who neither Felicia nor I know) is now in charge. Keith is involved in development, altho Kathy and Carol will still be looking at games.
Felicia told Keith about SHAPE & SHATTER and he said he wants to see it. But he asked if it is a "paper game." Since it can be done in cardboard she said yes, but then she thought he might mean a p&p game. She'll show it to him when he comes in for "Toy Fair" which he said he would.
Keith said that they are expanding the game dept. [department]
Keith, when Felicia brought up the matter of the games he had asked me to send him, said that he hadn't rcd. [received] them - altho he forgot what he asked me for.
Felicia said she had another word GAME from a new client, that is very very different. It would be suitable for TV.
I told Felicia that I'd look at it when I picked up THE BRAIN GAME sometime next week. She called to say that she didn't have it there, later, and I discovered it upstairs. I had taken it last week year to try to change the theme.
