He asked me what I thought of <u>MASTERPIECE</u> and I told him  <br>
that it could be good but it wasn't.  <br>
that it could be good but it wasn't.  <br>
He told me that the article in ''<u>TIME</u>'' (11/15) gave the impression  <br>
by first mentioning <u>MONOPOLY</u>, that <u>THE GODFATHER GAME</u>  <br>
was put out by Parker. They have been getting a lot of complaints  <br>
over it: and they are thinking of suing ''<u>TIME</u>''.  <br>
Next spring Parker is coming out with an election game,  <br>
<u>LANDSLIDE</u>. Also a game about used cars called  <br>
<u>DEALERS CHOICE</u>.
Called the P.R. people to check the list price of <u>THE GODFATHER GAME</u>.  <br>
$15.00.
Wrote the intro to my ''<u>BOOK WORLD</u>'' column.
Wrote to <u>Tom Atwater</u> abt. Stancraft 3rd quarter  <br>
royalty statement not coming. Also that I rcd. copies of  <br>
<u>TRANSFORMATION</u> from <u>Mary Hill</u>.

<u>Felicia</u> decided to send <u>CHECKPOINT</u> to Hallmark, but refused  <br>
to handle <u>COUNTERPOISE</u>.  <br>
The inventor, <u>Cox</u>, from Buffalo brought her a game  <br>
called <u>I SENTENCE U</u>. It is very gadgety but she  <br>
thinks Hallmark might like it as a different kind of  <br>
word game. He has it back for some changes that she suggested.  <br>
As soon as he returns it she will send it to  <br>
Hallmark.  <br>
Looked at the "biscuit box" edition of <u>IMAGE</u> by 3M. Read the  <br>
rules and ir seemed pretty much the way I remembered  <br>
it, but probably simpler.  <br>
In the same box Felicia had only the rules for  <br>
<u>BID & BLUFF</u>. She gave them to me. It is a knock-off of  <br>
<u>OH HELL</u> with some kind of track for keeping track  <br>
