Ember Day 59th day - 306 days to come


Jerry D'Arcey called and made a date to come here tomorrow. Had to call off the date with Claude (but he did it to me last week). He dropped up to the office and I gave him 10 3/4" cubes. He brought me three Sci, Ams. which gets me tight up to date. I in- sisted in paying him for them.
Claude was at Oggi and they liked his 21 puzzle. They gave him a copy of CUPI-DARTS, a strip tease dart board. Different spaces have articles of male and female clothing. If dart lands in space of opposite sex thrower can specify person of other sex to take it off. If same sex, takes it off himself. A bullseye gets a kiss from a person of your choice. (Bob Oxhandler liked it so I gave it to him.)

Daily News had an article on Toy Fair. (Filed in "Articles from Periodicals")

Chris Wagner over in the evening. Discussed my doing a column for STRATEGY & TACTICS. He wants to broaden the appeal of the magazine and attract people who are interested in non-war strategic games. He thinks that the first column should be devoted to an introduc- tion to my background, and should be ready by the beginning of May.
[crossout] Avalon Hill will be distributing S&T so the circulation should increase.
