3 Wednesday - January 1973
3rd Day - 362 Days to Come

Rcd. [received] an X'Mas [Christmas] card from Gini. Outside of SCREWBALL very little of her things have come thru. She is now contributing editor for SIMULATIONS/GAMING/NEWS.
THE AMERICAN GAMES ASSOCIATION has merged into the organization that puts out the periodical and her club is a peaceful local games club again.

Bob Gellman called. R.G.I. is probably going to be taken over by Athol Plastics - 200 5th Ave - Rm. 356 (924-7575). Unless something goes wrong the signing should be this Friday.
They will be going with the sports games - big and little. Also MOVIE MOGULS and MOVIE STARS. They will have a number of prototypes of HOLIDAY ready for Toy Fair.
They have the art work ready for a game based on General Patton. They'd like me to do the game. They'd like it authentic but not nearly as complicated as an A.H. [Avalon Hill] game. Said I'd start thinking of a PATTON game.
He'd like me to have the WHEELS game (see '72) ready in two months.
Bob was thinking of only giving me 4% if I didn't have to go thru Felicia, I told him that since he originally met me at Brentano's. I told him that Felicia would get her share and he agreed to thee 5%. On SCOTLAND YARD it will probably be 2 1/2% to me and 2 1/2% to the original inventor. Since they don't have art work for this there may be a delay in putting it out. (Looked at diary - Felicia said she only would take 15%.)
Bob said he'd call me next week and in the meantime not to tell anyone.
