Thinking about <u>COUNTERPOINT</u> and the possibility of using  <br>
an [modified Z shape] instead of an L. An [modified Z shape] would  <br>
be more like an + in difficulty, but it might slow up the game too much.  <br>
Think I'll stay with the L.
Signed books to sell to Bertha & give to Flo. Also signed  <br>
one for Kiva and Athene.
Diane Jaust called. <u>WOMEN'S WEAR DAILY</u> has a rave review on <u>A GAMUT OF GAMES</u>. Because of it Bergdorf Goodman contacted her. Although they don't have a book department they want to order some. Diane directed a salesman  <br>
to them. They told her that they don't often handle books but  <br>
when they do they usually become popular.  <br>
Jack Kessie, the book reviewer (I think) of <u>PLAYBOY</u> asked for another  <br>
copy of the book, which Diane sent him.
Rcd. a letter from Warren Buell. Will be in from Wednesday evening, thru  <br>
Saturday. Will call to see if we can get together.
Rcd. <s>VARIATIONS</s> <u>VARIANTS AND GENERALIZATIONS OF TIC-TAC-TOE</u> from Solomon Golumb. Not too interesting.
Rcd. a letter from  <br>

He saw Martin Gardner's <u>SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN</u> article (where?) <br>
and bought a copy of <u>A GAMUT OF GAMES</u> (where?) and wrote  <br>
to me (where did he get my address?). Asked some questions  <br>
and sent me some game ideas : - <u>NULL</u>, <u>NULL CHESS</u>,  <br>
<u>CROCKINOCKINANY</u>, P & P <u>GAME</u> on large sheet of graph paper.
Ordered a case of 6 - #12 Liberty boxes (see 11/3).
