Wrote to <u>Marcy Kuhat</u> (see 3/12) who I met at <u>INTERNATIONAL GAME SHOW</u>.
Call from <u>Felicia</u> finalizing details of our trip tomorrow.
Wrote to <u>Richard Loomis</u>. Mentioned <u>IMPERIALISM</u>, <u>GAMBIT</u>, <u>STARLORD</u>,
<u>S&T</u>, <u>NUCLEAR DESTRUCTION</u>, and <u>TIME TRAP</u>.
Went over my file on <u>Don Turnbull</u>, preparatory to writing to
him. Called <u>Bob Gellman</u> and told him to send <u>MACARTHUR</u> to
Don.
Called Dale and asked her to look for the following games for me
in Canada: <u>KLONDIKE</u>, <u>ENIGMAKO</u>, <u>CHICAGO</u>. Told her which French
games I already have. Told her to call me collect in case of doubt.

(cont. from 9/6) [9/6]
would like to look at <u>LONG DISTANCE</u>. Alan intends to have
<u>Felicia</u> bring that to Pressman. He is willing - thro reluctant -
to give her a commission on <s>Ferre. Fer</s> <u>FERRET</u> - since she had
said that she didn't want to handle it. He doesn't see why
she should get a commission on the other game, which she
never saw. Also on a <u>GAME</u>, the idea for which Lynn Pressman
gave him.
I said that I agreed with him, but could also see
Felicia's point of view about not wanting to deal for [illegible strikeout] him
with a company that he is dealing with himself. Discussed
his - and my similar - problem, but couldn't reach any
conclusions.
He is also concerned about whether to sign with <u>Al Stack</u> of
Skor-Mor if Al wants to do his <u>NFL FRANCHISE OWNER</u>. Discussed
it but, again, no definite conclusion.
Went over the names of the p&p games Alan has done for 3M.
The first 4 were <u>TIC TAC OH NO</u>, <u>AMAZING</u>, <u>DISCOVERY</u> &
<u>CHANGLINGS</u> (the first 2 were accepted and then returned -
Alan keeping the advance).
Then another 4 were accepted - which they now want
to give $200 each for: <u>FOOTBALL</u>, <u>BASEBALL</u>, <u>PRIVATE EYE</u>,
