Rcd. a call from Alice.
Ronald Coleman is leaving Hallmark for a bigger job in a smaller
company. He will let Alice know who will replace him.
CRISS-CROSS (see 6/8) and INVASION are being returned. They thought
the latter was a good game of its type and might be interested
in it sometime in the future, but think that CAPTURE THE CARGO
fills the need better. (I disagree that they are similar.)
They thought that the former could be developed into a
new BINGO but it didn't work out. They would like to have a
BINGO type game.
Alice suggested SCOPE. I didn't think it would be salable
in its present form but thought of the idea of using a
individual boards with 36 pegs and cards with holes that fit
over them. Numbers are next to the holes and they are
covered by using rubber bands over the pegs. A single number
may not be covered and the calling numbers run from 5 to 25.
This probably will make the game better.
