electronic games. (This is the company Jerry D'Arcey was doing consulting work for.) Article on a series of games using live "Sea- Monkeys - SPEEDWAY, SKI-TOURNAMENTS, 'CYCLE RACE and FOX HUNT. A good description of GUINNESS GAME OF WORLD RECORDS. "Letter by Shepard Bentley on Aladdin, TRIPPPLES, BARRIER, PUSHOVER, TOTALLY, INTERSECTION.

Met Jerry D'Arcey. He was feeling more cheerful. At Invicta he met someone from England who looked at his things and took (or does Jerry have to send) three things: MONOLITH, POUNCE, and KU-FU (I believe) - and I seem to remember TOP DOG also.

Jerry and I were going to go to S.P.I. to talk but he decided instead that he was many times overdue in visiting his cousin in New Jersey, so we split. He'll call me tomorrow morning about possibly getting together tomorrow.

To S.P.I. Ran off copies of my columns in S&T #47 and #48. Howie Barasch gave me two letters with stamped envelopes.

Dennis Kwasnik asks about ELECTION X. Sam Hamo has a game store and is interested in off-beat publishers.

Gave my column to Redmund. Told him that is something has to be cut to take out THE OLD SHELL GAME, and then to call me.

Took duplicate copies of THE WILDERNESS CAMPAIGN, STRATEGY I, and WAR IN THE EAST.

Earl Perel called during day and I called back in the evening for a long talk. Nothing specifically about games but I did talk about my problem with Felicia.

In my last talk with Jerry I told him about the fight with Felicia. He said he'd show my games, with no cut. I of course said no, but maybe we can work out something to help each other. [started 2/18]
