<s>Alex</s> Tom Atwater called to give me season's greetings. Alex got his advance for <u>Dōzo</u> and <u>ISHIDŌ</u>. They are having trouble with manufacturing one of them (which?) since it is made indentations, rather than holes. This is similar to <u>MEM</u> and Tom showed Holt an early model by Alex so that he wouldn't feel his idea had been stolen. <br>

I asked about Hank Simmons. Tom said that their acquisition of CO-5, which is being merged with Lakeside, definitely puts them in the boxed game business, says Hank. He is looking for more. Told Tom a little about <u>COUNTERPOINT</u>. He'll try to get here soon to look at it, possibly next week. <br>
