MAY 1975 - THURSDAY 15
135TH DAY - 230 DAYS TO COME

In accordance with our plan last night, I called Felicia before leaving for funeral. She spoke to Ron Weingartner and I'm to check at the E.S. Lowe booth at Stationary Show to get together to show him FOUR-ARMED BANDIT.

She only rcd. THE WINNING TICKET back from Edu Card Edu-Cards and she called Ike Chodak and he was very pleasant. She misunderstood his letter. They are holding on to TOGETHERNESS and OVER 'N OVER a few weeks longer. They like one very much (which one?) but need some time before a final decision.

She spoke to Shep Bently and he is being relieved from all other duties to run the game program at Aladdin. Twenty years from now they want Aladdin to be THE game company.

Rcs. May TOYS and PLAYTHINGS. Nothing new to me.

Earl Perel called while I was out but I didn't get a chance to call him back.

Called Claude to make final arrangements for tomorrow. He has some things to give me tomorrow.

- Felicia's booth. Told her about my call to Ron Weingartner. She said that she had sold the Lowe salesman on the game. Told her of my meeting with Steve Curtis. She had seen him and was supposed to get together tomorrow. It will be difficult to get away from the booth and she would like to postpone the meeting. Told her I'd check with Curtis and get back to her.

- Invicta. Nothing new. Very busy with MASTERMIND so I just passed by.

- Crisloid. Said hello to Herb Roth. He said things were slow.

- Gammon Games. Delivered Felicia's message to Curtis. He'll contact her about getting together in July. There will still be time to make the '76 line. He'd also like to see my collection.

- Pressman. Nothing new.

- Gameophiles. Spoke to Charles Wibel. He gave me review copies of COLORATION and FRONT PAGE. (Each retails at $8.00.) He didn't
