THURSDAY 5 OCTOBER Jewish New Year--Rosh Hashana 1967 278th day - 87 days to come

Rcd. the rules for SOLO from Paul Greenough. (Filed in "Misc. Card Game" Folder.)

Another letter from Haar Hoolim. Contained a new game- "CLAIMS".

BB, Dana, & I played EXECUTIVE DECISION. Used the following method for determining the choice of "prediction" card. Use a special die with numbers 1-1-1-2-2-3. The first card is therefore the most likely. This made the game more difficult to play than having the cards chosen by the players in turn. However, it does not set the length of the game to an even multiple of the number of players and it is more logical as an analogy.

Bill Bentzin called late in afternoon. A writer for McCall's MCCALL'S magazine called about an article on games. My name & number was given. He asked if I had been contacted. He'll look into it further tomorrow and I'll call him at end of day. He told me, unofficially, that BAZAAR was well thought of and will go national. I'm to keep this to myself since it is not 100% definite yet. I asked him, for Annette's sister, whether 3M gives games out to use as door prizes for organizations. He said that the procedure is to write to: { Robert Granovsky (Granovsky) 3M Co. Civic Affairs 220-9W 3M Center St. Paul Minnesota, 55101 Bill said that if I personally needed some he would see that I get them.

Played ANOTHER - 4-hand with BB, Dale & Dad. Then 3-hand without Dale. Also worked out a solitaire version.
