7 FRIDAY - JUNE 1974
158TH DAY - 207 DAYS TO COME
Rcd. the rules for THE GAME OF GENERALS, from James Kelso with
no message. It is very much like STRATEGO.
Called Harold Frankel to make sure that he got the report that
I returned to him Monday. Also to tell him that the rules
for SIDETRACK made no sense. Supposed to call me back, but didn't.
Started S & T column. Wrote up PURSUIT, with some suggested
improvements, and started SHIFTY CHECKERS - most of it actually.
Called Howard Wexler to ask if he wanted his name mentioned
as the inventor of CONNECT FOUR. Yes. He'd like a tear
sheet of the column.
Asked him if there is any special project he'd like to talk to
me about. No. I'll call about getting together when I am more caught up.
Call from Claude about our Monday date. He also called
Wexler today. Wexler refused to tell Claude who was looking
at his games. Claude complained about the length of time and
Wexler said that he should have at least two years to show
a game and if Claude objected he could take all of his games
back. Claude said O.K. I will and Wexler was surprised.
He said that the "Coffee Break Line" was being considered
and he couldn't return those. Claude also said that they
should have things in writing and Wexler said that he always
works on a "handshake". They left things up in the air.
