SUNDAY 29 OCTOBER Christ the King Twenty-third Sunday after Trinity 1967 302nd day - 63 days to come

BB had a catalog from Creative Playthings. Filed two pages in 1967 Ad Clips. Among other things it shows TRIANGULAR DOMINOES and CONFIGURATIONS. Also REVERSAL & FIDGET DIGIT.

Brentano's had a large ad for MATE-MATCH. This, I am almost positive is the same as the game called MATCH-MATE I saw at the Stationery Show. (See 5/22).

The October PLAYTHINGS now has an ad for THE GAME OF 99, now put out by Broman-Percepta Corp. - Akron Ohio. Hassenfeld Bros. has THE AMAZING DUNNINGER MIND READING GAME, a board game based on mind-reading.

Thinking of calling my version of TEN LITTLE INDIANS - ALIBI instead & when 9 characters prove an alibi, the tenth is guilty. Also thinking of another type of play where cards are layed out representing different characters in different places at different times. Two together at the same place at the same time provide an "alibi." Distance would also enter into it so that a character might not be able to appear in two places too far apart in adjacent time periods. (Very rough idea.)

Working on letter to Frank Thibault, but still didn't finish it.

Brought the copy of CROSSWORD LEXICON I bought on 10/25 to the Horns. The four of us played it. It was a good word game.

Also with the Horns, played VENTURE CAPITAL. They liked it.
