29 SATURDAY * SEPTEMBER 1973
ST. MICHAEL AND ALL ANGELS * 272ND DAY * 93 DAYS TO COME

Added three more thicknesses to the 18 PCs. of the set for
TOGETHERNESS. Also made 3 square pcs, with the 3 symbols, to
use for identifying the players' symbols.
Made a new set for THE WORM TURNS, four thick with wood grain
on top and bottom. Found another solution, but the 3 I have are
topologically the same.

Played TOGETHERNESS with Phil Laurence. He found a vast improvement
over the first time we played it.
Played SLIDEWORD with Phil but he wasn't quite with it. Later
thought of the name TANGLEWORD.
The game MYWORD! came up. I thought that I had given one to
Phil. I didn't. Promised him one.

Felicia kept the games. She will try to interest "Impact"
in them.
Looked at TRIPLE CROSS and TRAVELINE in connection with our
visit to Kohner tomorrow. Looked at SPECTRUM and
decided it was too complicated for Kohner.
Told Felicia that I was thinking of changing the theme of
THE BRAIN GAME from setting up an office to ge putting
together inventions. Took the model with me to work on it.
Felicia is involved in a party game called
THE INTERNATIONAL GAME HOUR. Gave me a small booklet
with rules for it and the following gambling games used
as a part: - HI-LO, SWY, FAN-TAN, ZIGANETTE, KABU,
SIETE Y MEDIO, BARBOOTI, SHOV-HA'PENNY, BANKO, MONTE,
DRADLE, HOLTZLE, LA BOULE. (Filed in I-S folder.)
