31 Friday - October 1975
Halloween - Reformation Day - 304th day - 61 days to come
Rcd. letter and royalty report from Nelson, for AGOG, for period of
Jan/June '75. £113.61 total, with £95.63 to me. The didn't
send check because of a question of tax exemption certificate. Enclosed
duplicate of a letter on subject to Graeme Levin
Rcd. RACING FANS - records, rules, and some betting tabs and money -
but no stylus for listening to the 78 records.
For THE GAME CUBE wrote up the following: DARRAH [many game titles crossed out, mostly illegible]
and part of BACKGAMMON.
Call from Phil Orbanes. He asked if anyone had done a "Passport Game"
and a "Smuggling Game." Mentioned BEAT THE BORDER and CONTRABAND
(both of which he knew) and that I believed there was a travel game -
recent but defunct - that used passports. He wasn't interested
in my checking into it. I asked, and he said that he might be de-
veloping (or did he say that he would need it developed?) these
games for an outside firm.
He got a copy of A PLAYER'S GUIDE TO TABLE GAMES. He's not happy
with the outdated info in it: that "Gamut of Games" is part of "Reiss"
and descriptions of the old editions of their games.
I asked, and he said we should get the Amway money by end of Nov.
Claude and Anne and Earl here for supper.
Claude brought me THE EXECUTIVE STRATEGIST (for which I gave him
the #1) and the Nov. SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN.
Played THE INSIDE LANE (my original variation of STEEPLECHASE)
with Claude, Anne, and Earl. It was all right.
