Rcd. letter and royalty report from Nelson, for <u>AGOG</u>, for period of
Jan/June '75. £113.61 total, with £95.63 to me. The didn't
send check because of a question of tax exemption certificate. Enclosed
duplicate of a letter on subject to <u>Graeme Levin</u>
<br>Rcd. <u>RACING FANS</u> - records, rules, and some betting tabs and money -
but no stylus for listening to the 78 records.
<br>For <u>THE GAME CUBE</u> wrote up the following: <u>DARRAH</u> [many game titles crossed out, mostly illegible]
and part of <u>BACKGAMMON</u>.


<br>Call from <u>Phil Orbanes</u>. He asked if anyone had done a "Passport Game"
and a "Smuggling Game." Mentioned <u>BEAT THE BORDER</u> and <u>CONTRABAND</u>
(both of which he knew) and that I believed there was a travel game -
recent but defunct - that used passports. He wasn't interested
in my checking into it. I asked, and he said that he might be de-
veloping (or did he say that he would need it developed?) these
games for an outside firm.
<br>He got a copy of <u>A PLAYER'S GUIDE TO TABLE GAMES</u>. He's not happy
with the outdated info in it: that "Gamut of Games" is part of "Reiss"
and descriptions of the old editions of their games.
<br>I asked, and he said we should get the Amway money by end of Nov.
<br><u>Claude</u> and Anne and <u>Earl</u> here for supper.
Claude brought me <u>THE EXECUTIVE STRATEGIST</u> (for which I gave him
the #1) and the Nov. <u>SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN</u>.
Played <u>THE INSIDE LANE</u> (my original variation of <u>STEEPLECHASE</u>)
with Claude, Anne, and Earl. It was all right.
