Rcd. [received] a "Complimentary Copy" of <u>WARGAMER'S DIGEST</u> (Aug. '74 [August 1974]). Seems
to be mainly on miniatures. Full page ad for <u>REALM</u>.
<br>Rcd. a royalty report from "Gamut of Games" for <u>REALM</u> - $37.38
and <u>6 PACK</u> - $88.69 --- for 1974. Rcd. #350 in advances in '74
so I am still $223.93 behind.


Called <u>Martin Gardner</u> to give him the name of the book -
<u>GAME THEORY A NONTECHNICAL INTRODUCTION</u>.
<br>Asked him if there was any action by Sci. Am. on Conway's <u>FOOTBALL</u>.
There won't be any until they get the results of Martin's
"Film Strip" project - of then. Hinted that I'd like him to keep my games,
like <u>ORGANISMS</u>, in mind. He said he certainly would.
<br>I bought up <u>Earl Perel</u> again and Martin remembered writing to him.
Played <u>PUSHOVER</u> with <u>Phil Laurence</u>. He understood the rules O.K.
He tried the solitaire and we discovered that with the rule
change - allowing a single pc. [piece] move when a pushover was available -
it is just about always possible to get a perfect score.
<br>Played 4-hand <u>PROFIT</u>. It was quite cutthroat. I caused about 3
bankruptcies.
