To I/S @ 11:00. John Rocknowski and the new head of the  <br>
game developement there - <s>Showed Ed</s> Bob Engel, <br>
Showed Bob my games. John didn't play or pay much <br>
attention to them. Showed : -  <br>
<u>HAVING A WONDERFUL TIME</u> : - Alice joined us and we played <br>
two deals. Bob liked it but said at present they are <br>
staying away from card games. Took notes for future <br>
reference. I took it home to repair the box which <br>
was ruined because X put tape on it. <br>
<u>FOA</u> which I changed the name to <u>FREE FOR ALL</u> : - This <br>
he liked and wants me to send as soon as possible. <br>
<u>TAM-BIT</u> : - Liked the idea but wants to wait a while <br>
with sending it in. I told him I could probably develope <br>
it for 3 & 4 players. This, of course, he wants me to do. I'll talk to him about it next time he's in.
<u>NEWTOWN</u> : - He didn't care for this . Under the rules <br>
of drawing cards one at a time it was rather dull. <br>
Probably dealing out a number of lot cards abd <br>
then bidding on others would be more interesting. <br>
<u>THE FIRST MILLION</u> : - Just told him the bare essentials,  <br>
they were out of time. Wants to look at it again next <br>
time he is in town. <br>
<u>MARLBORO COUNTRY </u>: - Just gave him a short rundown and he <br>
liked it well enough to have it sent in, Said I'd have <br>
have the two of them ready in about 3 weeks. Alice  <br>
<s>John said th</s> suggested the name <u>COW COUNTRY</u>.
John said that <u>FOCUS</u> is very popular with their salesmen <br>
and that they get a lot of fan mail. He figures that  <br>
there will be a new run the middle of next year. They  <br>
will put new art work of a more adult nature on <br>
the box. <br>
Alice mentioned Watkins - Strathmore and I brought up <br>
<u>36 FITS</u> & <u>PASS-O</u>. Bob said he'd send me a copy of each <br>
and also 6 more copies of <u>FOCUS</u>.
The 2 registered letters on <u>OPERATION SEARCH</u> came.  <br>
Rcd. a short letter from Haar Hoolim containing a copy <br>
of his letter to Piet Hein & Life International.
Rcd. a brochure from Flaghouse, Inc. 112 Fourth Ave.  <br>
(OR 4-7070)
They listed <u>KALAH</u>, <u>4-CYTE</u>, FACTS-IN-FIVE,  <br>
<u>TANTALIZER</u>, <u>WFF'N PROOF</u>, <u>MANDALAY</u>, <u>TRIANGLES</u> (Think  <br>
I'll get the latter.)
