Called Alice with Ed Weber's comment about the contracts.  <br>
She had a letter from Arnold Shapiro. No movement at X but they  <br>
are holding onto games that they might use.  <br>
Later Alice called me. Will called her. He agreed that he wouldn't sign  <br>
as it was written. He'll send new paragraphs by mail. He asked if  <br>
the rest of the contract is o.k. so that they can go ahead with  <br>
<u>INFINITE PLANE</u> & VENTURE CAPITAL. They have a great package.  <br>
Alice asked him if they'd be interested in looking at a word game  <br>
(<u>RED LETTER</u>). He said he'd chack with Bill Caruson.
Dad and I started translating Lech's game <u>LAP</u> which the  <br>
dictionary says is <u>HOLD ON</u>. Got about half wat thru. Looks  <br>
interesting.
Decided to change the name <u>POOLWORD</u> to <u>SPELLBINDER</u>.
