MONDAY 12 AUGUST 1968
225th day - 141 days to come

Went to Alice's office with the INFINITE PLANE contract. Alice had a
carbon copy of a covering letter for the contract for
VENTURE CAPITAL (they came at home). We found that there
was a new clause which read that 3M could stop paying royalties
if anyone charged that their rights were being infringed.
Alice will call will to ask him about it.

They had a letter from Olinsky (see 7/19) he described a
game of surrounding spaces which he called DON'T FENCE ME IN.
It is probably imatative but I suggested that Alice write to
him and have him send a model.

Alice rcd. the rules and a description of a game COPRA RUN and the
information from Roy Jones of Columbia on CONFRONTATION. which
is a game simulation rather than a game. Took them home to study.
