Tuesday 21 January 1969

Stonewall Jackson, Born 1824 21st day - 344 days to come

To Felicia after work.
Showed me a letter from Will Erickson. Condolences over Alice. Bob Claude will be in during toy fair to look at CINEMA & NOMINATION. On the phone he said they would not be looking at anything before then. However Bill Caruson had told me that if EXECUTIVE DECISION was submitted by the end of January it could still be readied for test marketing in the fall. I'll go on this assumption. Arranged to bring the finished model to Felicia's apartment next Mon- day morning.
Looked at a description of a game PEE-WEE. A variation of TIP CAT [crossout], a sharpened piece of stick that is struck by another stick.
Another description of a game APOLLO-12 MOON LANDING GAME. Maneuvering a B-B around a path to the moon & back, avoiding holes on the way. By (Frank J. Clark

Checked on the games of mine she has there:- INVASION
GO SEE
MATCHED SET
FREE FOR ALL (Looked at it and it seems in good shape)
THESE UNITED STATES (Not in perfect condition, but left it there.)
CINEMA & NOMINATION (In lousy shape. Took them home to fix up.)
FITTING & PROPER (Bryce sent it very carefully wrapped. Took it with me)
CARRE (An old, rough set.)
TOTALLY-- (A rough set.)
Took home the rules for THE MILLION DOLLAR GAME & THE GAME OF CANADIAN FOOTBALL.

Stan Harris called. Gave him a short report on the games. He'll probably come here next Tuesday with Irv Lubow to pick up the games and for me to give him a verbal report. He'll call Friday to confirm it.

Made repros of LIMBO, STAR-K-RAZY, VIVID LUCKY WORD GAME, PAR.

Brought a copy of BAZAAR to Bob Oxhandler and also the tape of my broadcast which he wants to take home and listen to.
