Rcd. [received] the letter from <u>Bill Eckhart</u>. He has to have a simplification of
the rules for <u>JUNGLE RACE</u> by the end of the week. He can
be reached in Portland.
BB Worked on it in the evening and decided that having animal
markers made it very confusing. Also the starting distribution
of the markers was an unneccesary complication<s>s</s> and a few other
things.
Called <u>Marvin Channing</u>. Still no answer from advertising director.
If I don't hear from Marvin about <u>ONCE AT A TIME BY THE MILLIONS</u> in
about two weeks, I'm to call him.
Deposited the Hasbro check in Knickerbocker.
Call from <u>Phil Orbanes</u>. Asked if I knew of a game named </u>KALEIDOSCOPE</u>.
They want to use it for <u>Joel Gaines</u> new game, in place of <u>SPELLBOUND</u>.
I hadn't hear of one, and checked <u>TOYS</u> and <u>PLAYTHINGS</u> - also negative.
Talked some more about his job at "Gamut of Game." He got a good
contract and the office is very pleasant to work at. He meets
<u>Waldemir VonZedtwitz</u> regularly and gets along very well with
him.
