for <u>OPERATION SEARCH</u>.
To Jules Cooper's house on Long Island, bringing him <u>OPERATION SEARCH</u>.
He told me of a mystery <u>GAME</u> they are working on. <br>
Players move around a board and can in some degree affect <br>
the commission of the crime. Time also enter <br>
into it. A suspect could not commit a murder at 4 if <br>
he was killed at 3. There is a point in the game  <br>
where players <s>ente</s> fill out a questionaire concerning <br>
what they have observed and are marked on this, tho <br>
this is not the end of the game. <br>
Their idea is to publish three deduction games; a <br>
highly intellectual type - theirs; an in-between type -  <br>
mine (if they take it); and a simple one. Ideal at <br>
present is second only to Milton Bradley in sale of games,  <br>
but they are not in the adult board game market because,  <br>
as Jules says, they don't have any really good board games. <br>
He is trying to rectify this and to convince top management <br>
that they will sell. <br>
