THURSDAY 28 SEPTEMBER 1967 271st day - 94 days to come

Rcd. a notice from Stechert-Hafner that the book JEUX DE CARTES DU MIDI DE LA FRANCE was out of print but they are searching.

Alice called. Parker bounced PAYOFF. Again they liked it and want to see more of my games. She'll show it to Lowe. I asked her about FACTOR and she wants to show that to Bill Caruson. I'll bring EXECUTIVE DECISION to show them next week.

Called Claude. He wonders when Alice is going to do something with EGGHEAD POKER. I told him I'd ask her first and then possibly have him call her about it. Claude was over at Arthur's yesterday and played TEN LITTLE INDIANS with him & Wald. They liked it tho Claude is still not satisfied. He tried giving extra points for landing in certain spaces and also the right to ask a specific player for a card of one of two specific characters. If the player has neither he still passes another card, of his choice so that the other players don't get information. Claude and Anne will be over on Oct. 6th. We will try for a N.Y.G.A. meeting Oct. 20th.

Mike Abrams called. Invited him over to visit tomorrow.

Made reproductions of the ARMOR RULES rules and gave them to Betty to have her husband translate them.

Called Arthur. Settled Oct. 20th as N.Y.G.A. meeting. I told him about ANOTHER. He has the following to show:- CASANOVA - with High Deck. BLACK LOTUS - a board game. PARIS - an entirely different game with the High Deck - not like previous games of the same name.

Bill Bentzin called back. He heard that they will be test- marketing BAZAAR. They have no plans to publicize me this year, concentrating instead on sports games. He will send me copies of BIG LEAGUE BASEBALL & PRO FOOTBALL (I asked him).
