Call from Alice. She received a package from Bob Engels with
36 FITS, PASSO, & 6 FOCUS. She will give me 3 of the FOCUS
games.

Call from Jules Cooper. He asked for the solution to the
OPERATION SEARCH problem. He also said that Larry Reiner
likes the game and tho he (Jules) doesn't like it as much as
CLUE they don't want want to but it. Since they are going
to license some name (wouldn't tell me which) they can't
offer me more than 2% royalty and $500 advance. I
agreed. He said the contract would arrive within a week.
