Rcd. a letter from Pelikan, signed by someone other than Rademacher, which I couldn't decipher, in answer to mine of 9/10.
Since next week was so hectic called Claude to see if he could set up a date for tomorrow - no, a previous engagement. Later call from Claude and, among other things, he is interested in pre- paring a resume on himself and asked if and how he could list his contribution to EXECUTIVE DECISION. Told him of course - and to write something out for me to approve.
He got a cabinet maker in his neighborhood to prepare some wood pcs. for his COPS & ROBBERS game - only $2 and the guy used scrap wood he had around.
Finished the game indexing thru 9/23.

approve them. I asked Manny to give about two days warning when they need them from me.
To "Gamut of Games." Told Linda that it would be better if I give the SLY corrections directly to Phil Orbanes. Asked her to have him call me as soon as he gets back in town.
Al Zygier was there. (He is now a part of "Gamut.") I asked and he gave me the following: BATTLE PLAN #1 and #3 (no copies of #2 left). #1 has a big article by Al Nofi and an ad for VICKSBURG: THE WAR FOR THE WEST and also some corrections in the map. Also notice that the first set of "Command Series" will be reprinted in small "albums."
VICKSBURG: THE WAR FOR THE WEST and VON MANSTEINE BATTLES FOR THE UKRAINE - 1941-1944) - took copies. HITLER'S LAST GAMBLE: THE BATTLE OF THE BULGE - took copy, but didn't take the box to hold the 2nd "Command Series" - since I didn't have room.
Also took an ad sheet with the following games listed: VICKSBURG, VON MANSTEIN, WELLINGTON, THE GREAT WAR; REALM, INFINITY, LEE VS. MEADE, SARATOGA: 1777, INVASION: SICILY; NAPOLEON'S LAST CAMPAIGNS, CAMBRAI: 1917, MISSILE BOAT, OMAHA BEACH, WAR OF THE WORLDS II, ROMMEL.
