23 SUNDAY - MARCH 1975
PASSION (PALM) SUNDAY - 82ND DAY - 283 DAYS TO COME

At various bazaars bought 40 strips with 25 plastic picture holders each - for $2; 2 green and 2 red ball point pens - for 10¢; 3 bags of buttons - for 75¢; 7 pads of 6" x 8 1/2" paper - for $1.00.

Call from Claude. Talked about visit to Dave Greenwald. Claude is thinking of a gimmicky game GAME for Hasbro based on THE RACE TRACK GAME that was in Martin Gardner's column. He asked and I said I could get a repro of it for him. Also told him about RACECOURSE and promised repros.

Visit from the Horn's. They brought me 99 (I am pretty sure) brass pin-on buttons with undecipherable, black inscription. Each was in a zip-lock bag - about 2 1/4" x 3" - and Dana said that he has been looking for small zip-lock bags. Told him that I'd check with Phil Orbanes next time I saw him to find out where he gets his.

The four of us played GET THE JUMP from SLY 6. O.k. but not great.

Made repros of M.G.'s column with THE RACE TRACK GAME and of the rules and sheets for RACECOURSE.

Played 500 RUMMY with dad & Ilka.

Rcd a letter from Keith Tuggle answering a Mr. A. T. Rehm, Jr. who had asked a question on ACQUIRE. He said that I would send Rehm an answer - but he didn't send me the question.

During day Ed Schifman called and gave BB a list of games for me to check. No hurry and I can send info in a letter: QUINTESSENCE, ARRAY, CONTINUITY, PENTAD, VISA VERSA, CONTRA, POLARITY, TRANSPOR TRANSPOSIT.

He also asked if I could tell him my sources, so that he won't have to bother me.

Rcd. a package from Cadaco with THE SHERLOCK HOLMES GAME.
