<br>She hears (from someone who she has caught in a lie) that the people
in the game companies take payoffs for accepting games. I said that I

<br>She said that all of the things she has on the fire, she is most hopeful
about those with S&R [Selchow & Righter]. Altho she hates the co. [company] <u>Angelo Longo</u> is very
easy to work with. The most promising is <u>ODDS & EVENS</u> and some

<br><u>Bill Riva</u> would love to try and place some of my 3M games in Europe, but

out of royalties if the game is published; he liked this idea.
