WEDNESDAY 8 MARCH 1967 67th day - 298 days to come

Alice called me. "X" will send contracts for the following games by May 1st:-

  • SHAPE AND SHATTER
  • DEDUCTION
  • COLOR CONFUSION (new name for BAFFLE)
  • STACK STICKS

The following are being tested and look encouraging. Answer should come soon after May 1:-

  • CIRCULAR GOLF (An action game)
  • TOTTER
  • RUSTLERS
  • RED LETTER

Some people there like NUMBER FOOTBALL but took about a week to learn it. They like SPORTS ARENA (Dick Conner's) but can't price it at less than $15, and they want to price the line at from $5 to $10.

Alice said that the CO-5 company has a new version of AGGRAVATION and to look at it.

Alice wrote to Bill Caruson about SIT DOWN AND THINK.

Called Anne about DEDUCTION and Claude called me. Told him that [crossed out] Alice should be told of the TV games. He agreed and told me to tell her. I said I'd call Fay tomorrow and tell her that we haven't done anything this week and suggest that we call off the meeting this Friday.

Alice told me that Arnold Shapiro is quite interested in seeing SCOPE (or possibly TRINGO would be a better name) and also INFINITE PLANE. He also said that the changes in RED LETTER were minor.
