Rc'd. letter from 3M. They have been trying ACQUIRE all summer and have adapted a variation which allows purchase of 3 shares on a turn, and gives a founder's bonus of 1 share. The 4 of us tried it and it wasn't too bad. Letter said that it was very popular with test panel & those who bought it. Also sent picture of new back cover of box - pretty.

Call from Chuck Baiter at Look. Pictures to be taken tomorrow.

Aurthor [Arthur] called. He and Wald have made a simplification of POWER which they call POWUR. We will play it next time we get together.

Thinking of changes in THE FIRST MILLION. Each player has an individual (and different) path instead of having a common path. This would probably make it much less possible for the rest to gang up on the leader; at least they couldn't stop him from taking a profit.
