To "Tree Communications." Marilyn Nierenberg read my manuscript, mainly to make sure that she understood all the games: MANCALA, MILL, THE JUNGLE GAME, ANAGRAMS, LASCA, and QUICK TRIP. Discussions including another gal and the photographer and they will probably start the article with a full page photo of two kids playing THE JUNGLE GAME and end it with a full page photo of QUICK TRIP being played by adults. Marilyn gave me a check for $375 - which included $25 for the weaving instructions BB wrote up. Lunch with Marilyn and then I left while the photographed the games. Arranged to be back about an hour and a half later.
To S.P.I. Howie Barasch on vacation. Redmund checked his desk and didn't see anything for me. Made repros of the following: 5-5 board, which also has rules on it. CONTIGO rules. THOUGHTWAVE - the sample game on the bottom of the box and two repros of the pcs. - couldn't do the rules since they are on box cover. DOUBLE DEALER - rules, client cards, Antique cards (made 2 sets). Took a boxed copy of NAPOLEON AT WAR, with the following four games: MARENGO, JENA-AVERSTADT, WAGRAM, and THE BATTLE OF NATIONS. Also took an unboxed set.
To Reiss Games to talk to Manny Lefkowitz to talk about the SPECTACULARS. In conference and I left word for him to call me tomorrow.
Back to "Tree Communications." Photographer took pictures of 4 of us playing QUICK TRIP - then pictures of me. Took back all my material except for the board for THE JUNGLE GAME, which Marilyn kept for photographing after the pictures of animals are drawn up. Left her a copy (I have another at home) of MARIE-CLAIRE Magazine to use to get ideas. Asked her to let me know when she is finished editing my written mat- erial so that I can check against an inadvertent change in meaning. She will.
