2 hand strategy games and card games.  <br>
If they can solve the problem of players getting headaches  <br>
<u>SPELLBINDER</u> will probably be in. They are still working on a  <br>
new set of cards.  <br>
They still haven't rcd. <u>PLANES</u>.  <br>
<u>Felicia</u> is going ahead, probably, with <u>Lilian Vogel</u>'s game file  <br>
idea, and Lilian came in while we were talking.  <br>
Felicia is going to spend a whole day with the development man  <br>
from Samsonite. Next year they are coming out with 60 new items,  <br>
toys & games, mainly for children. If they ask her, she will advise  <br>
them against going into adult games. They will be discussing the 1973  <br>
season. She will ask <u>Al Richter</u> to join them - maybe he can  <br>
learn something to get him working in the right direction.  <br>
I asked her to ask them about <u>AMOEBA</u>'s fate. She said she would.  <br>
Rappaport's complains that there are just too many adult games  <br>
and they are not going to handle those of marginal companies.  <br>
Felicia convinced them to include <u>EXECUTIVE DECISION</u> in an  <br>
ad she was doing for them, but they never received the order  <br>
they put in some time ago.  <br>
She rcd. a letter from <u>Arnold Shapiro</u>. He is leaving Hallmark because  <br>
he is not happy with his new superior. He sent her his resume  <br>
and asked if she knew of any possibilities. She sent it to <u>Mel Taft</u>,  <br>
in view of all the companies they have been acquiring.  <br>
He told her to give me his regards.
Called <u>Eve Auchincloss</u> at ''<u>BOOK WORLD</u>''. Gave her the mail order  <br>
address for <u>BUGS & LOOOPS</u>. Reminded her that she'd call me when  <br>
the proofs were in.  <br>
Called <u>Robert Gellman</u> of Research Games, Inc. I'll go there  <br>
on Weds. 12/1 and he'll take me to lunch.
Called <u>Jim Dunnigan</u>. Had him add the word "still" as <u>Dale</u>  <br>
suggested to my writeup of <u>THE GODFATHER GAME</u>.
Gave him <u>Colby Duerk</u>'s and <u>Rob Randall</u>'s addresses to have their  <br>
prize sets of <u>KURSK</u> sent.  <br>
I'll bring him <u>TRIREME</u> on 12/1. He'll run repros of the rules  <br>
for me on their new machine. Also copies of my ''<u>S & T</u>''  <br>
