spoke well of me and was concerned.
<u>Dale</u> called <u>Jim Dunnigan</u>. He asked me about the game <u>PHALANX</u>.  <br>
(Whitman) and whether the name was registered. It isn't.  <br>
They are coming out with a game <u>PHALANX</u>.  <br>
From the feedback, my most popular columns are those in  <br>
which I go into detail on a few games. We discussed the problem  <br>
of covering all the games I get. I'll have to do something  <br>
like the "Books Received" section of the magazine.  <br>
The circulation is now up above 3000. The advertisement in  <br>
the ''<u>TIMES</u>'' just about payed its way. They will spend another  <br>
$20,000 this year in ads.  <br>
He asked about <u>Bob Reiss</u>' visit to me. I told him that I hadn't  <br>
heard anything further on it. He already spoke to <u>Phil</u> about  <br>
approaching Bob on a "Games Magazine" and we'll both work  <br>
on it when Bob is here.  <br>
It is O.K. to bring in my next column the beginning of next week.
<u>Arthur</u> called. Would like to get together. Didn't make a definite  <br>
