8 FRIDAY - NOVEMBER 1974
312TH DAY - 53 DAYS TO COME

Rcd. 24 shares of stock in "Infinity Quest Corp." from Phil Orbanes. Also a listing of officers.

The 3M check still didn't come. Spoke to Charlie and he said he'd check at the post office. I'll call at 2:30. [drawn bracket] Charlie Goldenback [drawn bracket] Route 23 [drawn bracket] 379-3366 Called and he couldn't find it. He suggested that I wait until Monday before calleding St. Paul. I will.

Went over the NO WAY rules and made some additions. Wrote to Keith Tuggle with the additions. (Typed it myself.)

To Post Office and mailed a copy of TOY & HOBBY WORLD (Oct. '74) to Graeme Levin - surface mail.

Mailed AGOG to Walter Luc Haas - surface mail, and 11 S.P.I. "errata" sheets (see 10/1).

Sent the letter and INTERSECTION info to Ed Schifman.

Thinking of changing TAM-BIT into a gambling game for 2 to 6 players - with jackpots collected for completing various configurations, GAME.

Called Al Richter to check on our date with them - 11/23. He hasn't called Earl yet about DON'T BLOW A FUSE.

had told John Albright about her. She appreciated that.

Told her about the COSMOPOLITAN article. She ran off a copy for herself and a duplicate for me. (Filed in '74 Misc.)

Asked her for a copy of AD-LIB. She didn't have any in stock, but will order some. (Also some jig-saw puzzles that Dana had asked for.)

M.B. [Milton Bradley] has layed out some 300 workers, and they are not a company that fires people quickly.

Gave her a copy of AGOG and one to send to the M.B. [Milton Bradley] office. She suggested that I sign it to James Shea because when all is said and done, he makes all the decisions. Signed it with sincere thanks for all the fun M.B. [Milton Bradley] games have given me. Signed Terry's with saying that it is meeting people like her that helps make games so wonderful. (Unfortunately one copy was a little damaged but she insisted on taking it.)

To S.P.I. Richard Berg was up front. He does the "Forward Observer" column for MOVES, in which he often reviews war games. Asked him if he has seen PATTON and MACARTHUR. Yes. They are much too simple for him, and too much luck. He goes for extreme complexity. He is also into Sports Games and we discussed them a little.

Howie Barasch wasn't in. Couldn't see anything for me on his trays. Made repros of all the material in A.H.'s [Avalon Hill] 1776. Since I will have to
