Finished writeup of STRATO CHECKERS. BB typed the column.

Marvin Channing called. They have decided, for financial reasons, not to do ONE AT A TIME BY THE MILLIONS. I'm to send in my bill.

Rcd. [received] October TOYS. New item:- DECATHALON GAME (Sports Illustr. [Sports Illustrated] - Time & Life Bldg. [Building] New York, N.Y.)

Rcd. [received] [illegible word crossed out] POFORA CHART FOOTBALL GAME, POFORA BASEBALL GAME, and POFORA SOLITAIRE BASKETBALL GAME (ord. [ordered] 10/16).

Rcd. [received] HEXCHECKERS from Robert Slenker of Regis Game Co., Also a letter that SHACKLES is being improved. He has "10 solid games" and will send me information as soon as he gets them from the printer. (Ord. [ordered] 10/16). He called Simulations about advertising in S & T.

Rcd. [received] an announcement about a book to be published, in French and English by Editions Stock devoted to Collectors and their collections. It is called WHO'S WHAT - L'ANNUAIRE DES COLLECTIONNEURS. I can list my collection without obligation to buy the book. However it took a month for the letter to get here and I am pretty sure it is now too late. The editor is Jean-Claude Bandot who was connected with the TV program and Game AVIS AUX AMATEURS. Pierre Berloquin recommended me.

Rcd. [received] a letter from Keith Tuggle about "Light Control Film" and he'd like to see my EXECUTIVE DECISION chang rule additions.

To Simulations. Gave Red my S & T column no. 35. Got copies of S & T's no. 32, 33, and 34 and ran off repros [reproductions] of my column. Kept the copies magazines. In storeroom noticed copies of DIPLOMACY. Ran off a copy of the latest rules.

Stopped off at the address Stanley Chess gave me (see 10/18). Not in.
