APRIL 1974 - FRIDAY 5
85TH DAY - 270 DAYS TO COME

Long distance call from Roger Verhulst (he didn't receive the letter I sent on 4/1 yet). The editor of the NEWS is interested in a pc. on me. Roger will be coming to N.Y. on other business the week of 4/15. Made date for 4/19 at noon, but he'll call earlier in the week.

Call from Felicia. She was writing to an I - S shareholder who is a wargame buff, and she didn't know how to spell MACARTHUR.
2nd call. She heard from Nancy Rosen of American Publishing. Nancy is anxious to look at things and Felicia suggested showing her SHAPE & SHATTER. I suggested PUSHOVER and asked if they are interested in puzzles. Yes - there are two PUZZLEs that Felicia originally contacted them about. [Nancy said they were interested in toy oriented games (which neither of us knew the meaning of)]. I told Felicia about my puzzle EVEN WORSE.
Nancy will try to get to see Felicia next week, but it may be impossible to arrange. I'll call her after returning from Leonard Willett's on Monday to see if I have to bring the stuff to her.

Made the missing piece for EVEN WORSE and added a solution to the box booked
With the Laurence's played INTERSECTION, first 2 hand me and Phil and then 4 hand. They liked the 4 hand even better.
Annette wanted to keep playing it.
Played HEX-MATCH with Phil and he liked it. Showed him EVEN WORSE and he said it was impossibly difficult.
