Call from Felicia. She wrote to the man at 3M who sent the [illegible word crossed out] letter on selling the game line (see 12/9) - R.J. May with a carbon to Keith Tuggle. She rcd. an answer - signed by A.C. Dickerson, which pretty much just repeated what the original letter said - perhaps emphasizing that the games should stay together as a whole.
In her meetings with Parker [Parker Brothers] and with M.B. [Milton Bradley] they were surprised at the news on 3M - not having rcd. letters.
She has a game (whose?) called DON'T POP MY BALLOON which is liked by Bob Hubbard of "Impact." She showed it to Dick Harris, who said there was a game put out by Ideal which is similar - BANG BOX. She From Dick's explanation of BANG BOX - there is a baloon [sic] in a box and players insert swords through holes hoping not to break the baloon - she doesn't think her game is at all like it.
She called Jules Cooper and asked him about it.
