Wrote for information on <u>PUBLIC TECHNOLOGY ASSESSMENT GAME</u>
enclosing a SSAE. Also asked for review copy.
<br>Rcd. a copy of a picture pushing <u>PUSHOVER</u> on a children's TV
program - with a note from <u>Ed Schifman</u>.
<br>Call from <u>Wald</u>. He asked if I knew anything about "Synergistics
Co." He answered an ad in the "Village Voice" for "an assistant to
an overworked president." He has an interview coming up and wanted
some advance info. Checked and they are in the <u>TOYS</u> directory.
Suggested his checking with the T.M.A.
<br>Later checked thru D in the "Trade Names" and they seem to do
darts, etc.
<br>Cal from <u>Ruth Cavin</u> of Paddington Press. Apologized for not
contacting me sooner. Took my address to send me a review copy of
<u>THE WAY TO PLAY</u> [illegible words crossed out]. Then I suggested my picking it up
myself, and she appreciated that. Told her that I'd be in next
week, and that I'd bring her a copy of <u>S&T</u> if she'd like. She would.
<br>Called "Strand Book Store," to see if they still had the copy of
<u>CONTEMPORY GAMES: ---</u> that Claude saw. Was told that they
can't check phone inquiries on review books.
Maybe I'll write and try to get a review copy - since appar-
antly <u>Dan Miller</u> did.
<br>Call from Anne <u>Soucie</u>. She saw <u>Jim Dunnigan</u> on the [illegible word crossed out]
Ch 2 11 p.m. news - a short segment with Joel Segal. I didn't
watch it.
<br>Almost caught up with game diary, after working on it most of day.

<u>BRANDY STATION</u>. Also a listing of 29 possible games for
members to vote on.
At "Summit Office Supply" bought $2.25 worth of clasp envelopes
and Jiffy Bags.
<br>To S.P.I. Spoke to <u>Redmund</u>. Wednesday of next week should be
the latest to bring in my next column.
<br>Showed him <u>BEYOND TIC TAC TOE</u> and he liked it. He sugges-
ted a series of games named after mathematicians, or after
Architects - and said I could use the ideas.
<br>Took 2 copies of <u>S&T</u> &#35;52 (and noticed that <u>DUPLICATE CROSSWORD GAME</u>,
<u>SCORING ANAGRAMS</u>, <u>THE GREAT AMERICAN AUCTION CARD GAME</u>,
and <u>CHARGE IT!</u> were left out.
<br>Also took an unboxed copy of <u>DREADNOUGHT</u>.
