sell games. If they do sell he will be interested in looking at original things and will contact me. He will send me review copies of these 8 games and also of SUPER CRIBBAGE. Exchanged cards.

- Classic Games. Took rules and one score sheet for each of the following games: SAM'S HOOLIGAN, SLOTS N' SPOTS, CAMMY, YACHT. Have all the info except the makeup of non-standard dice. Was told to phone for review copies - Classic Games Co., Inc. - 255 Skidmore Rd., Deer Park, N.Y. 11729 - (516) 667-7776.

- Heines House. Given rules for CHEZ and STOCK-POKER and I can pick up review copies Weds. Another game on display was SURROUND. Played on 11 x 11 board with 60 pcs. each of 2 colors. Pcs. placed two at a time in any position, leaving one empty space. Move one positi space and capture by interception. Move again with a capture. The historic material stated that this was a modern form of the Egyptian SENAT. Told him that it was really SEEGA. He said his info came from Faulkner. I told him I'd check. (Did and Faulkner does indicate something of the sort but Murray & Bell say no.) He also has an expensive SHOGI set with the moves on the pcs.

- Whitman. Spoke to Bruce Freise, who remembered me (probably from Felicia's). He said that he has it on his calendar to send me copies of CHARGE IT ($2.50 retail), AUCTION CARD HOCK SHOP ($5), GREAT AMERICAN AUCTION CARD GAME ($2.50), and CASINO VEGAS ($5). Told him that I hadn't asked for the latter, but he said he thought that I should have it. Took his card and a catalog (Duplicate & discarded).

- Pacific Games. Nothing new.

- The Other Chess Board. Not a new game but a board constructed out of wood pcs. so that the outer ring of spaces is highest, with three two rings going down and a final pit of the center 4 spaces. (Took some ad material.)
