WEDNESDAY 8 JUNE 1966 159th day - 206 days to come

To Alice:- Brought AIRLINE & DATA PROCESSING to be sent to Parker. RED LETTER to be sent to Hallmark. She is also going to sent GO SEE to 3M.

Took some Toys & Novelties. There was a piece on 3M boxing winning a contest. HIGH BID was featured. Four others were shown, including ACQUIRE. A&S had a fathers day ad for ACQUIRE, STOCKS AND BONDS, and TWIXT.

Discussed CIVIL WAR SKIRMISH & PROJECT with Alice. She will try to contact the inventers and get models. I took back some additional material from her files.

Took back Arthur's NOVA BOARD.

Alice told me about CRISS-CROSS, the game brought in by the negro school teacher. It is an elongated quadrille. At one end there are a series of numbered squares, with largest number in center and getting less towards both sides. Luck cards send you back, forward & sideways in quadrille, but advancing towards end, where you score the number you land on. (Very rough idea.) He Roland Coleman says that, surprisingly, the initial reaction was favorable (see 5/27)

Alice gave me $50 for May payment from Hallmark.

Alice is leaving Saturday for month vacation in Kansas. She will visit Hallmark.
