WEDNESDAY 16 NOVEMBER 1966
320th day - 45 days to come

To I/S @ 11:00. John Rocknowski and the new head of the
game developement there - Showed Ed Bob Engel,
Showed Bob my games. John didn't play or pay much
attention to them. Showed : -
HAVING A WONDERFUL TIME : - Alice joined us and we played
two deals. Bob liked it but said at present they are
staying away from card games. Took notes for future
reference. I took it home to repair the box which
was ruined because X put tape on it.
FOA which I changed the name to FREE FOR ALL : - This
he liked and wants me to send as soon as possible.
TAM-BIT : - Liked the idea but wants to wait a while
with sending it in. I told him I could probably develope
it for 3 & 4 players. This, of course, he wants me to do. I'll talk to him about it next time he's in. NEWTOWN : - He didn't care for this . Under the rules
of drawing cards one at a time it was rather dull.
Probably dealing out a number of lot cards abd
then bidding on others would be more interesting.
THE FIRST MILLION : - Just told him the bare essentials,
they were out of time. Wants to look at it again next
time he is in town.
MARLBORO COUNTRY : - Just gave him a short rundown and he
liked it well enough to have it sent in, Said I'd have
have the two of them ready in about 3 weeks. Alice
John said th suggested the name COW COUNTRY. John said that FOCUS is very popular with their salesmen
and that they get a lot of fan mail. He figures that
there will be a new run the middle of next year. They
will put new art work of a more adult nature on
the box.
Alice mentioned Watkins - Strathmore and I brought up
36 FITS & PASS-O. Bob said he'd send me a copy of each
and also 6 more copies of FOCUS.

The 2 registered letters on OPERATION SEARCH came.
Rcd. a short letter from Haar Hoolim containing a copy
of his letter to Piet Hein & Life International.

Rcd. a brochure from Flaghouse, Inc. 112 Fourth Ave.
(OR 4-7070)

They listed KALAH, 4-CYTE, FACTS-IN-FIVE,
TANTALIZER, WFF'N PROOF, MANDALAY, TRIANGLES (Think
I'll get the latter.)
