Going over my [crossed out] notes on <u>AMERICA'S GAME BOOK</u>, call from <u>Ken Heker</u>, date at 3 today with Burroughs Mitchell.  


To <u>Felicia</u>, <u>Charles Titus</u> did not show up to discuss <u>PYSCHO-PATHS</u>. Felicia called Michigan and he called back. It was a mistake; he had said Tuesday, Dec 19th but Felicia only reacted to the date. He will come tomorrow and I told Felicia I would probably be there too.

Felicia wondered if 3M had seen <u>NOMINATION</u> and <u>CINEMA</u>, I told her I was pretty sure they had but that I'd check my records.

Felicia was thinking that she could submit <u>Lillian Voegelin's</u> game of <u>FOUR LETTER WORDS</u> or <u>ALTER EGOS</u> as a "Knowledge" game. I looked at it for the first time and it is only for a maximum of 4 players. There is a timin gadget with four colors which __ sounds at the end of each color. The player chosen to go first chooses a four letter word as the ___ pointer is in his color, ___ reads it aloud, and all the players write it down on a pad provided with lines ____ under on another alternating between the four colors. From then on players must call out a new four letter word changing one letter from the previous word, without alternating the order. A proper word must be called while the pointer is in the player's area. If a word is not called that ___ line is left blank. Play, I believe, until the entire pad is used. Words are scored as follows: Correct word - 5 point, plus one point for each incorrect word or blank line that preceded it, if any. A word that is spelled wrong, or changes the order of the letters, or is too long, or was used before counts -10 and is ignored by the next player, who must play to the last correct word. (I told Felicia that I was afraid that in succeeding games there might be a tendency to repeat the same word sequences.)
