Sent letter for a review copy of <u>EN GARDE!</u>
<br>Rcd. letter from <u>Martin Gardner</u>. He enclosed <s>the</s> a repro of
the <u>FOOTBALL</u> article by <u>Marek Penszko</u> in <u>PROBLEMY</u> and
asked if I could translate it. The game is by <u>Lech Pijanowski</u>.
Called Martin and told him that I had rcd. a copy of the
magazine with a letter from Penszko. Told him that I sent a
copy of <u>AGOG</u> to Penzsko and that I will write and ask him
for a translation. I'll also see if my father wants to translate.
I told Martin that I rcd. the copyright back for <u>AGOG</u> and am
waiting for an answer from <u>Ken Heuer</u>. Martin said that if
Scribner's doesn't want it he has other connections - a partic-
ular good one with Ballentine Books.
<br>Martin has heard from <u>Pierre Berloquin</u> in connection with the
introduction to Pierre's book. Scribners has decided to come out
with <u>100 JEUX GEOMETRIQUES</u> as a start - instead of a volume
with the three books. Ken Heuer told Martin that there were a
lot of mistakes, in the text and in the diagrams.
<br>Martin</u> would like a copy of <u>BEYOND TIC TAC TOE</u>.
<br>Rcd. a catalog from "Gammon Games", together with an
invoice for <u>221B BAKER STREET</u> and <u>THE SEX CONNECTION</u>.
(<s>Pretty sure</s> I have the catalog already.)
<br>Rcd. ten copies of <u>BEYOND TIC TAC TOE</u>, with an invoice.
<br>Mailed the following (after two trips to the P.O.)
<br>Copy of <u>AGOG</u> to <u>Marek Penszko</u> - ($.34)
<br>Copy of <u>6 PACK ---</u> to <u>Steve Wilson</u> - ($1.91 - including insurance)
<br><u>WOODEN SHIPS & IRON MEN</u> to <u>Walter Luc Haas</u> - ($1.04)
<br><u>VIKING</u>, <u>CHARIOT</u>, <u>YEOMAN</u>, and <u>MECH WAR '77</u> (all without boxes)
to <u>Walter Luc Haas</u> - ($1.04)
Call from <u>Herb Chanko</u>. He'd like to take over a package deal
for the <u>SPECTACULARS</u>, giving me the royalties as outlined
by <u>Phil Orbanes</u>. He asked if I had checked this with
<u>Manny Lefkowitz</u> and I said it was O.K. with him.
<br>I wanted a model to work with and he wanted me to prepare
just drawings. He'll call me in a day or so to arrange
to get together.
Call from <u>Felicia</u>. <u>Bob Johnson</u> sent the games back. They came
Friday when she wasn't in and she called to have them
