FRIDAY 23 FEBRUARY 1968 54th day - 312 days to come


Alice called. She rcd. a letter from Will Erickson. They are still evaluating BALI. They are looking for other card games because it is easier to market a line rather than a single game. So far they haven't found any. Alice and I have decided to submit VENTURE CAPITAL (after I redo the cards) and HAVING A WONDERFUL TIME.

Rcd. a letter from Dr. Atwater. At his first look he thought INTERPLAY, TEMPO, & ODD OR EVEN were good, professional, and right for "seemed first-rate, ideal for Stancraft, very interesting, and professionally done." Sent me suggestions and a contract form. Will send me more info after trying them out.

To Claude's in evening. Showed him INTERPLAY, TEMPO, & ODD OR EVEN. He wasn't terribly impressed. Played 4-hand PENALTY BAZAAR with BB, Claude & Anne. They Then played 6-hand including Frankie & Barbara. They all liked the new variation better than the original. It worked fine with adding 3, even with 6 players. Brought KNOTS TO YOU for Jacquie to use at her party. Claude gave me an ad from the Times (sometime during the week). MINITAR: the new game and descriptive booklet of Presidential politics for Democrats, Independents, and Republicans to fight over... (Peacefully, of course.) Available at Abercrombie & Fitch.

BB brought registered letters for the three peg games and SPECTRUM to the post office.
