25 Saturday - October 1975
298th day - 67 days to come

Rcd. NOST membership card 'til Sept. 1976.
Call from Mike Abrams. I told him that due to sickness his letter concerning BINARY (formally BLOCK 'N SCORE had gotten mislayed. Also told him that the chances of 3M doing anything new at present are very slim. He still wanted me to con- tact Keith Tuggle concerning the game. I said that I would send Mike my S&T review and that he could send it to Keith and that he could suggest to Keith that I would be glad to talk to him about the game. Mike said that Keith "valued my opinion."
I suggested that the educational division of Milton Bradley might be a place for the game. Mailed the review to Mike - with a note.

Working on the word GAME idea I had last night. Have a grid of 18 x 15 squares (270 total) with letters in them. A section is blocked off - from 20 to 45 - and players in turn pick out letters to form a word and color in the letters with their color. The player who forms the last word scores one point for each letter he has colored in. Con- tinue with another section of the same size. Etc.
Brought copies of S&T no. 48 thru 52 to Harold Saperstein. Got the page from last weeks TIMES with BEYOND TIC TAC TOE ad.

Realized that next Friday is Hollywood Halloween. Called Claude and changed date from their house to here. Told him I had DUEL to return to him. Reminded him to bring THE EXECUTIVE STRATEGIST. Called EARL and it's O.K. with him to come here Friday.
