Working on game diary.
<br>Rcd. a letter from <u>Graeme Levin</u>. <u>ORGANISMS</u> has been rejected by
one company - but he is showing it to another.
<br>Rcd. a letter from <u>Warren Buell</u> saying he'd be in N.Y. on 10/1, 10/2,
and 10/3.
<br>Called Paddington Press to ask for a review copy of
<u>THE WAY TO PLAY</u>. [illegible words crossed out] Woman in charge not in. Left
my number - but no call back.

deal with <u>Henry Szwarce</u> [illegible word crossed out] for her to cut her share of
<u>IMAGE</u> - which she hears is doing well in Europe.
<br>It looks as if her and <u>Herb Roth</u>'s deal with <u>RUMMIKUB</u> will be
profitable. It looks as if Macys will be putting in a big order.
The only thing she is worried about is that <u>Moses Goldman</u> won't
have the production ready in time. He was supposed to bring
in 6 samples today - but only brought 2.
<br>She hears from <u>Keith Tuggle</u> that they may be looking at
P&P games in January. Told Felicia that I saw their previous
P&P games remaindered in Job Lot. She said that they
were all dogs - and that Keith admits that now.
<br>I asked, and she said that my games came back from
Hallmark. However they lost Connor's <u>TROTTER</u> and she can't
get <u>Bob Johnson</u> to answer letters on it. She also can't get
any answers about the Springbok games.
<br>2nd call from <u>Felicia</u>. She spoke to <u>Elizabeth Brower</u> and she
will but in the request for SSAE for those wanting an
answer from me.
<br>In the <u>TIMES</u> she read that <u>Christian Thee</u>, a game inven-
tor, is suing Parker for $20,000,000. He claims that they
studied his game and then returned it- then came out
with <s><u>MASTER MIND</u></s> <u>MASTERPIECE</u>, which is the same games-
he says. <u>Randolph Barton</u> states that they looked at
hundreds of art games, but that <u>MASTERPIECE</u> was devel-
oped by <u>Marvin Glass</u>.
<br>She asked if - since I met all the game inventors -
I know Thee. No, and if I do I'll watch myself.
She will be flying to Springfield for a day at M.B.,
mainly to meet their new advertising setup (??). But
