Rcd. a "thank you" card from Warren Buell.
Rcd. MATHEMATICAL CARNIVAL. This is Martin Gardner's 7th collection from SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN.
At Job Lot bought 4 containers of rubber bands, 15¢ each. Across the street bought 4 dozen green (47 of them "verdent green") pencils for $1.00.
To Phil Orbanes. We went over my SLY corrections together. Amway won't allow my name on the game. They objected to a hairdo on the box art work and are redoing it at their own expense. This will hold up final payment thru November.
I asked about my trying to sell EMPIRE thru Graeme Levin. Phil read me the contract with Amway and it only covered the U.S. and Canada. Also it concentrated on "game components" rather than "game play." Phil suggested using a board with a different number of spaces, and also a different number of men, and of course a different name.
