<br>Since next week was so hectic called <u>Claude</u> 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-

<br>To "Gamut of Games." Told Linda that it would be better if I give

call me as soon as he gets back in town.
<br><u>Al Zygier</u> was there. (He is now a part of "Gamut.") I asked and
he gave me the following: <u>BATTLE PLAN</u> &#35;1 and &#35;3 (no copies of
&#35;2 left). &#35;1 has a big article by <u>Al Nofi</u> and an ad for
<u>VICKSBURG: THE WAR FOR THE WEST</u> and also some corrections in the
map. Also notice that the first set of "Command Series" will be
reprinted in small "albums."
<br><u>VICKSBURG: THE WAR FOR THE WEST</u> and
<u>VON MANSTEINE BATTLES FOR THE UKRAINE - 1941-1944</u>) - took copies.
<u>HITLER'S LAST GAMBLE: THE BATTLE OF THE BULGE</u> - took copy, but
didn't take the box to hold the 2nd "Command Series" - since I didn't
have room.
<br>Also took an ad sheet with the following games listed:
