Returned the copy of 1776 (A.H.) [Avalon Hill] to Howie Barasch. TIME (probably 12/2/74 issue) had an article on THE MONOPOLY BOOK and MONOPOLY. Got a repro so that I could give the issue to Claude.

Took copies of STRATEGY I, PATROL, and STARFORCE. WORLD WAR III will not be ready until next month.

One of the young fellows in the shipping room (can't rembe remember his name) who asked me about CHE. Told him that it was dead a long time, but promised to bring him the rules to reproduce next time I came came in.

Jim Dunnigan told me that there was a copy of WOODEN SHIPS & IRON MEN in the office. Checked with Howie and it is out for testing. He suggested that I should be able to get a copy to write a review for EUROPA from [drawn bracket] Steve Peck [drawn bracket] Battleline Publications Inc. [drawn bracket] P.O. [illegible strikeout] Box 1064 [drawn bracket] Douglasville, GA 30134

At Post Office sent the package with DELPHI, PSYCHE-PATHS, and BUGS & LOOOPS to Walter Luc Haas. Air mail - $1.32.

At Sylvan Book Store bought November SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN. As well as the column also took an article on a CHESS match between computer programs. Also an ad for S&T (which I didn't keep).

At S.P.I. also took 4 copies of S&T #47. Centerfold game is WOLF PACK. "Outgoing Mail" mentions the following upcoming games: SIXTH FLEET, FREDERICK THE GREAT, TWENTIETH CENTURY, PANZER '44, GLOBAL WAR, BLUE & GREY, DREADNOUGHT, MECH WAR. Ad for WORLD WAR 3, NAPOLEON (Gamma Two), 1812 (Gamma Two), QUEBEC 1759. "Footnotes" has variation on TANK!. article on WORLD WAR 3. Ad for SEARCH & DESTROY and PATROL. Took duplicate copies of MOVES #12 and #16.

At Earl Perel's room met Claude. Wald didn't show up. Ate together and then, in a bookstore on 8th St., Claude and I each bought a copy of MAN, PLAY, AND GAMES. $1.50.

Back to Earl's. Played a short game of JACK POTS 6. Claude was 3 pots to my two but I just beat him out. Claude said that it had a good idea but didn't quite make it. He thought that the last pot should build up more excitement. I decided that next time I'd try out an idea
