MONDAY 14 FEBRUARY St. Valentine's Day 1966 45th day - 320 days to come

Called Bud Meier & then Bill Bentzin. Latter and I decided that I would call Henderson in Boston. Alice called to tell me some comments by Roland & Dan last Friday. CONCENSUS - lacks excitement and a move of 2 never occurs. RED LETTER - they seemed to miss the whole point. But it was late and we played very little. Hoped they'll get it from the rules.

Alice called a second time. She spoke to Bill Caruson. He said that STOCKS AND BONDS took off big but they don't expect to it to continue. They figure that ACQUIRE is their best game & it will become a classic. He is coming to town next week & would like to talk to Alice and me about reducing the royalty so that more money can be spent on advertising. Alice & I discussed it and will agree to some reduction, if they will push ACQUIRE more.

February Playthings came. Several new games.

Started copying the rules of SUBERBIA.

The copy of PSYTÉGÉ I bought came.

Among the comments by Roland & Dan - can't DEDUCTION be based on something other than a crime?
