Created page with "'''8 MONDAY * OCTOBER 1973'''<br> COLUMBUS DAY CELEBRATION * 281ST DAY * 84 DAYS TO COME ---- Thought that my new <u>SHAPE AND SHATTER</u> puzzle was<br> similar to <u>LUCKY 13 PUZZLES</u>. It is, but I checked and<br> found that <u>THE RELUCTANT RECTANGLE</u> (see 3/3/70) used the<br> idea of forbidding colors to touch each other. I am sure<br> that there are others as well. The way of setting up the<br> puzzle is completely different in <u>SHAPE AND SHATTER</u>..."

I asked, and Jim gave an envelope with the 4 pieces of <br> | |||
plexiglass they sell.<br> | |||
Took a copy of <u>BULL RUN</u>. It is packed in the new "retail"<br> | |||
format. More attractive, but less convenient to store.<br> | |||
Mannie, of the art dep't gave me a printer's sheet with<br> | |||
my column - #39. (I'll give it to Phil Orbanes.)<br> | |||
Saw <u>Dave Isby</u> and asked him if he'd be in next Tuesday so that<br> | |||
[I] could bring him the two copies of <u>PATTON</u>. No, but he<br> | |||
asked <u>Al Nofi</u> to hold them for me. O.K.<br> | |||
John (don't know his second name) was in Al Nofi's office<br> | |||
and said someone had brought a copy of <u>PATTON</u> in on a Friday.<br> | |||
He, John, liked it very much. To hell with realism; he likes<br> | |||
a game that plays cleanly.<br> | |||
To <u>Felicia</u>. She was a little "under" and lashed out at my doing games for<br> | |||
others. I reminded her that I had told her that I was working<br> | |||
with "Gamut of Games." She said that I owed giving her my good<br> | |||
games. I pointed out that the <s>kind of</s> things I did for "Gamut"<br> | |||
were things I could turn out by the dozens. And if I didn't<br> | |||
do them someone else would.<br> | |||
Brought her copies of <u>VEGAS 13</u>, <u>WORD PLAY</u>, <u>NICETACTOE</u>, and<br> | |||
<u>DAM-IT!</u> (Didn't bring <u>CHINESECHEK</u> for lack of room in my holder.)<br> | |||
Yesterday she said she'd like to see them. Told her yesterday, when<br> | |||
