During the day someone (<s>who</u> I can't remember who) mentioned that someone, but not <u>Gini Scott</u>, was picking up review copies for ''<u>SIMULATIONS/GAMING/NEWS</u>''.
Spoke to <u>Claude</u>. Told him about ''G & R'' and <u>WATCH</u>, but told him not to do anything about it until I am notified by them. He said that they speak to him about it every time he stops by. He'll bring them a copy of <u>WATCH</u>, but make it look coincidental. <br>
<u>Wald</u> has contacted Claude and would like to set up a game evening. <br>
Nothing definite settled.

Looked for my <u>SKYSCRAPERS</u> model as a sample for the new one. Realized thatit is stil at 3M. <br>
Came up with an idea for getting over the corner to corner race problem in <u>SPRINGER</u>. Put small triangles at the outside corners, but not at <br>
the 4 corners of the field. The ones at the centers of each side are <br>
darkened. To win must reach darkened triangles on at least 2 sides.
Made repros of the <u>NO WAY</u> rules and two more of the sheets, at Boston Road.
Called <u>Dick Landman</u> at Carter-Hall. Not in. Said I'd call again on Thurs.
