MONDAY 2 OCTOBER 1967 275th day - 90 days to come


Called Bob Abbott to ask him about protocol in my lunch tomorrow with Joanne Miller of Funk & Wagnalls. He said she pays - with company funds. Bob has come up with a change in ELEUSIS. If a player plays a proper card he can play another card and continue as long as he plays properly. He also has a change in ULTIMA. He is sending it to various people. He just sent one to me. He would like to incorporate these changes in the paperback issue of his book but the type can't be changed. Probably he will be able to get the ULTIMA changes put in as a postscript.

Fay called and spoke to BB. She wants a release from Claude on his DATING GAME. Since he doesn't want to work on it she wants to get someone else to do it.

Thought of a change in EXECUTIVE DECISION. Instead of having players in turn choose the "prediction" cards, have each player have a voting card as in CONCENSUS to vote for the card. If none has a majority use a die to choose the card.

Claude called. He is going Wednesday to see Jules Cooper and show him TEN LITTLE INDIANS. Claude has picked up several sets of colored plastic discs from the kids in his neighborhood. Will bring me some when he comes Friday.
