Not having heard from Tom Atwater since last Wednesday I called. Called
his home first and his wife said he was at the office. Reached him
there. He apologized for not sending the contract from Stancraft to
me. He's been very busy. He'll send it to me tonight.
He thinks the 3M foreign deal is a good deal. Usually half the
domestic rate is given. I wondered what 3M gets out of it
but Tom says they will be getting at least 10%.
Tom says that Hank Simmons is in charge of acquisitions and, at
least for the present, will not have anything to do with Lakeside game
program. Tom gave me Hank's number in case I want to get
in touch with him - [phone number]. I told Tom that since Hank has
left Parker I would like him, Tom, to be my agent with Hank.
When talking about the 3M games, Hank remembered that he had to
contact the inventor of PHLOUNDER. 3M wants to cut the royalty to
3% and put it in the EduPlaytional line.
In Sears X'Mas catalog TWIXT and STOCKS & BONDS were the only
3M Bookshelf games listed. Stancraft's THE CROSS PUZZLE
and MILL GAME were listed. (The former is solitaire on the
32-hole board. Prices are $4.50 & $5.50.) Took out the
pages on the children's games. Includes ALL-PRO BASEBALL,
HOT WHEELS WIPE-OUT RACE, GAME OF LOVE.
