thing about.  | thing about. It may be one that a fellow in California made up  | ||
and wanted me to look at. Or that might be a different <u>GAME</u>.  | |||
Tom said he'll send me the rules.  | |||
Call from <u>Claude</u>. He went to see <s>"Shirt Poket</s> "Shirtpocket Games"  | |||
about <u>WATCH</u> (Thru G&R). They were too tied up in the  | |||
things they have to come out with anything new. He met a  | |||
<u>Mr. Becker</u>, who used to be with Lakeside (<u>Jerry D'Arcey</u>  | |||
dealt with him). Becker seems to have some connection with  | |||
Shirtpocket, but he is also an agent, like <u>Wexler</u>. He was   | |||
interested in <u>WATCH</u>, but would change the presentation and  | |||
the name to <u>DANGER</u>. He wants 50%. Claude is trying to  | |||
decide whether to deal with him.  | |||
<br><u>Claude</u> heard from <u>Earl</u>. Made a date for Earl to come for  | |||
supper (which Claude has to change). No mention by either of  | |||
Hasbro. Also no word yet on <u>RIP-OFF</u>, etc.  | |||
