22 MONDAY * OCTOBER 1973
VETERANS' DAY * 295TH DAY * 70 DAYS TO COME


Prepared two lists of 80 games for S & T feedback. To those
I listed before I added the following: STARLORD, CONFRONTATION,
THE LIB GAME, CONVENTION, NEBULA 19, FOLLOW THE ARROW, SCARNE DICE,
EXTINCTION, LENSMAN. For lack of room dropped the following: RECKON,
THE VERBAL GAME, CHAOS, 3 UP, AVALANCHE, COUPLES, CARD CUBES, TIC TAC TOWER,
POINT OF LAW.

Wrote a letter to Carol Peterson (see 10/5). Sent her my ideas for a
luck-free version of ACQUIRE.
