WEDNESDAY 8 DECEMBER 1971
Immaculate Conception
342nd day - 23 days to come

Called Eve Auchincloss to ask her about the "Game - of -
the - Month - Club ad. It didn't appear and she doesn't
know why. She'll try to find out and call me back.

Called Laurence Alexander at Castle Book. He is out all
day today. He has my note to call me.

Reading the manuscript of AMERICA'S GAME BOOK and made
notes of the errors and unclarities. As I got into it I just
took a sampling, as there were so many. There are 9 games
from AGOG.

Felicia called to say that Gellman came in to pick up GO SEE,
and return AIRLINE. He told her not to judge their quality by MOVIE STARS;
it was just put out in a hurry.

Ken Morgan called. He is sick and asked to change our day.
Made it for 12/15.
He saw an ad for EXECUTIVE DECISION in the TIMES financial section. Probably the same as that is WALL STREET JOURNAL.

In my talk with Felicia she mentioned that Gellman and
his partner might look at games and then later be influenced,
perhaps unknowingly, by them. Just a feeling
she has about it.

Claude called. Nothing specifically about games.
Working on puzzles for DIALEMMA until quite late.

(cont. from 12/11) [12/13]

could be at Felicia's at 1. In the meantime Bill Knox got sick
so the meeting is postponed, until next week probably.
