<u>GAMES</u> Mag. [magazine]
Rcd. [received] box from Lakeside with duplicate copies of <u>OVERBOARD</u>, <u>ISOLATION</u>,
<u>BIG DEAL</u>, and <u>SCORE FOUR</u> (a new edition). (By U.P.S.)
<br>Rcd. [received] airmail parcel post package from Hasbro with <u>PYRAMID</u>.
Got checks for taxes at Dollar. Called <u>Leonard Willett</u> to see if he has any
state estimated forms. No. I'll have to pick some up.
Visit to <u>Horn</u>s in evening. Played <u>BLOW-A-WORD</u> with new rules. Good.
Call from <u>Felicia</u> (before we left). She spoke to <u>John McNett</u> and he promises
an answer on <u>ABOVE AND BEYOND</u> on Monday. Right now it looks very encouraging.
I'll take my other set with me to Mass. [Massachusetts] and will call Felicia in the
evening to check. (Felicia said to call collect, but I said that wouldn't be
necessary.)
<br>Felicia heard from A.H. [Avalon Hill] that three German companies have made lucrative
offers for <u>ACQUIRE</u>. One is from "Schmidt Spiele," who, said <u>Bill Riva,</u> would
get the game on the market sooner; another is "Ravensburger" who
would be slower but would sell more; and Felicia can't remember the
third (<u>Herb Roth</u> read her the letter on the phone). The letter also
mentions interest in <u>BAZAAR</u> - I emphasized that P. [Parker] of Germany has rights
for Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.
<br>There was no word on <u>FOREIGN INTRIGUE</u>. Felicia will write or call to ask about
it - also to tell <u>Tom Shaw</u> what <u>Bill Riva</u> said.
<br>Felicia never did hear from <u>Gale Jenkins</u> of M.B. [Milton Bradley] I told her about <u>Jim Walsh</u>
writing to <u>Bernie DeKoven</u>. Felicia said that Jim was just trying to
make work <s>and</s> for himself and had no say, and Bernie's games are
egghead and no good. I insisted that <u>STITCH 'N' STRATEGY</u> could
have commercial possibilities, and that we should show it when we
see Gale. She said O.K.
