K.M.S. Industries : - Spoke to Robert A. Shaw, the National Sales  <br>
Manager. Asked him about <u>SCORE FOUR</u> It is a 3-dimensional  <br>
"Tic-Tac-Toe" and it is put out by another division of the  <br>
same company. He said he would send me a copy of it and  <br>
also the four games put out by the "Scientific Games  <br>
Division" ("Score Four" is put out by the "Funtastic Division"  <br>
which they acquired) - <u>BUY OR SELL</u>, <u>COOPERATION</u>, <u>SKIRMISH</u>,  <br>
& <u>PSYCHE PATHS</u>. The latter was invented by a bearded eccentric  <br>
with 2 P.H.D. degrees. He will send me some info on him.  <br>
They had a Canadian Game there called <u>RAT RACE</u> which the  <br>
publisher was trying to interest them in taking over. It had  <br>
a board with large squares starting i[crossed out] around the edge and  <br>
then spiraling to the center. Players had businesses which  <br>
they owned and there were squares on the board color coded  <br>
to the player's token. When landed on by opponents they  <br>
pay, but get a receipt, when land on "pawn shop" can pawn  <br>
the receipts for 1/2 the value of the item. As go along the  <br>
path advance from lower class to middle class and finally to  <br>
upper class. Object, I believe, is to arrive at upper class  <br>
with a certain amount of money. Rough idea. Didn't seem to  <br>
offer any chance for skill.  <br>
