9 MONDAY - SEPTEMBER 1974
252ND DAY - 113 DAYS TO COME
From England received rules for HARE AND TORTOISE and ELECTION X.
Called Leonard Willett. Told him about making more than last year -
Came to the conclusion that I should send in $500 more for the
estimated payment due 9/16.
Called Fabio Coen. Started on a vacation today - for 2 weeks. Told
secretary (not Fay) that I'd call when he gets back.

since it was late we didn't complete the game. I ran
into the problem of having "controls" in 3 different
"rackets" but never landing on any of them. Wald agreed

During evening BB brought out TOTALLY (without the box)
and we played a little of it. Bobbie liked it
and, I think, Wald did too. Later showed the complete TOTALLY and
INTERSECTION to Claude.
