 <u>Jim Kraus</u> has been moved out of the game program. Bill Caruson  <br>
-has a lot
+has a lot of other things to work on so <u>Keith Tuggle</u> is pretty much  <br>
+in charge of the game program. Keith will be at the Toy Fair.  <br>
+They are looking for one <u>GAME</u> for the Bookshelf line in 1974. Felicia  <br>
+said I should come up with something and I said <u>THE BRAIN GAME</u>.  <br>
+She is afraid that 3M has too many trading games.  <br>
+One of the reasons she called Bill was to ask about <u>HIGH BID</u>. It is  <br>
+now officially only in the Gamette line.  <br>
+She sent <u>Bob Johnson</u> a letter saying that she will be <s>expecting</s> sending  <br>
+him <u>DISPERSAL</u> early next week.  <br>
+S & R notified her that they made a mistake and sent her $600  <br>
+too much for the 4th quarter of <u>BALI</u>.  <br>
+She thinks that <u>Bob Gellman</u> is a great salesman, but  <br>
+somewhat of a phoney. She says I should ask for an advance   <br>
+before I work on <u>PATTON</u>.
+Call from <u>Claude</u>. He told me about an ad in ''<u>TOYS</u>'' Magazine (which  <br>
+I had seen) by M.B. for someone to work on game product design.  <br>
+He thought that it might be a good job for me. Possibly, but  <br>
+I'm not ready yet to take a job.  <br>
+I told him about the letter from James J. Faulkner today.  <br>
+Spoke about my notes on his game <u>CROOKED BRIDGE</u>. He'll call me  <br>
+some time so I can read them to him. (Both too tired today.)  <br>
+Told him about Hallmark being so interested in 2-hand strategy   <br>
+games. And that I had <u>DISPERSAL</u> completely worked out.  <br>
+Started working on the <u>DISPERSAL</u> board.

+most of it myself, if the price is right. George, of course, will  <br>
+contribute. He is also working on some word puzzles.
