mailed <u>BAFÁ BAFÁ</u> rules to <u>Bernie DeKoven</u> with short note.
<br>Rcd. X'Mas card <s>and</s> from the <u>Corns</u>. No message.
<br>Rcd. X'Mas card from <u>Djoli Kansil</u>. No message.
<br>Rcd. X'Mas card from <u>Carla Evans</u>, with note on <u>BEYOND SOLITAIRE</u>,
<u>PINBALL</u>, and <u>PROFIT & LOSS</u>.
<br>Rcd. letter from <u>Tom Shaw</u>. Mentioned <u>FOUR-ARMED BANDIT</u>, <u>Don Greenwood</u>,
<u>SLEUTH</u>.
<br>Visit from <u>Jules Cooper</u> and <u>Phil Orbanes</u> (after earlier call that
from Phil in which he said that Jules didn't want to bring along
<u>George Dunsay</u>. Elaborate lunch.
<br>Phil brought the following: <u>THE STING GAME</u>, <u>WELCOME BACK KOTTER</u>, <u>KING KONG</u>.
Jules saw lots of his games in my collection, including <u>BANG</u>, <u>FLASH</u>,
<u>INTRIGUE</u>, <u>LOGUS SR.</u>, <u>PERCEPTION</u>, <u>DEAR ABBY</u>, and just about all the
Lowell games, and <u>THE STOCK MARKET GAME</u>. He thinks that <u>THE BOSS</u>
is the best game he ever did- when kids play it they have a wonderful
time. He asked if I had <u>PERSON-ALYSIS</u>; I checked and I didn't;
he said that he may have an extra to contribute to my collection.
<br>Jules said that <u>MATOCA</u>, even tho it wasn't his, was one of the best ever.
The four of us started to play <u>THE FAME GAME</u>, but after a while Jules
stopped it, saying that it had a lot of clever game devices but that
it just didn't hold the interest. I agreed. Told him that I original-
ly had it as <u>FUN CITY</u>, and it lost something in the translation.
