THURSDAY 26 OCTOBER
1967 299th day - 66 days to come
Rcd. a letter from J.H. Morgan @ 3M. He is sending me a case
of BAZAAR.
Bob Abel called. He is doing a quick article on games for
CAVALIER Magazine. Gave him a little information about current
games. When he spoke to Bill Bentzin, Bill did not say
anything about BAZAAR (which I guess is because it is still
only being tested). He did mention to Bob that if he
kept up his studies, he'll know as much as Sid Sackson.
Bob said that in about 40 years. I'm to call him again
towards the end of next week.
I called Joanne Miller at Funk and Wagnal's to tell her that
I couldn't do the book on POKER variations at present.
She said that she had been about to call me. Her big boss
(who seems to be with Reader's Digest) at a meeting came up
with an idea for a book about POKER variations. She mentioned me.
What he is interested in is a book witth with as complete a
list of variants as possible. I told her that this interests
me more. I'm to prepare a list of all the variants I
can find and give it to her. She'll then check further
at her end.
(cont. from 10/28) [10/27]
is game. No bonus. But is other player has not made
at least 1000 "below the line" he loses all of his score.
Claude gave me the game SIXTY-FOUR he picked up
for me. He also loaned me OSWALD JACOBY ON POKER. He
had another POKER book by Steig but I didn't borrow
it as it had almost nothing on variations.
Claude also had a lacquer sprayer for spraying
game equipment which he picked up for me - $1.30.
Arthur gave me back the HIGH DECK he borrowed some
time ago.
