Wald is working with <u>Wexler</u>, rather than <u>Strongin</u>. Wexler <br> | |||
has more imagination in preparing models than Strongin <br> | |||
does. Also Wexler seems to get along better with the <s>Aryan</s> <br> | |||

Wexler who made up some beautiful models for them (or <br> | |||

I asked and Wald said he was splitting 50-50 with Wexler. <br> | |||
When he asked about a better arrangement Wexler said he was <br> | |||
making up games of his own, so why should he push Wald's <br> | |||
if he doesn't make anything on them. Wald agreed. I told Wald <br> | |||
of what Wexler offered Claude. He thought it was ridiculous. <br> | |||
