Rcd. a letter and an "Internal Status Report" from <u>James J. Faulkner</u>  <br>
([Personal address omitted for privacy]) who, apparently on his  <br>
own, is setting up a "Synergetic Systems" with a "Leisure Systems  <br>
Division." He wants to put out a series of "Portfolio of Games"  <br>
with <u>CHESS</u>, <u>GO</u>; some original games - <u>NEXUS</u>, <u>PIPS</u>, etc. He wants  <br>
to put out <u>PLANK</u> in the first series. He is interested, for the second  <br>
series, in <u>PATTERNS II</u>, <u>LAP</u>, <u>THREE MUSKETEERS</u>, <u>HOLD THAT LINE</u>. He also  <br>
asked whether he could steal <u>BATTLESHIP</u> and <u>JOTTO</u>.
 
Call from <u>Felicia</u>. Her aquaintance, Ruth Millard who did P.R. for M.B. is  <br>
interested in working for 3M, <s>She called Bill Caru</s> She, Felicia, wanted  <br>
<u>Lee Horn</u>'s telephone number and I found it for her in the  <br>
folder with 3M publicity.  <br>
She rcd. a very nice letter from <u>Chuck Titus</u>. He thanked her for her  <br>
efforts for <u>PSYCHE-PATHS</u> but realizes that she won't be selling it.  <br>
He'd like his hand-made set returned. I told Felicia that, since I have  <br>
it, I'll mail it to him.  <br>
She rcd. a letter from <u>Bob Johnson</u>. He'll be glad to look at things  <br>
in May. However he was very anxious to see 2-hand strategy  <br>
games. I told her about <u>DISPERSAL</u>. I'll bring it to her Monday and she'll  <br>
send it out to him. I wondered why he kept wanting more and more  <br>
2-hand strategy games. She figures that Springbok will be putting  <br>
out a long series of them, similar to their jig-saw puzzles.
 
2nd call from <u>Felicia</u>. She called <u>Bill Caruson</u> to try and get some info  <br>
for Ruth Millard.  <br>
She asked Bill also about the games. The gamettes will continue as  <br>
they are for 1973. Then they will investigate "bulking them up" so that  <br>
they can sell for a higher price. <u>PROFIT</u> will be considered again for '74.  <br>
Bill Caruson said the older games are dropping off. Felicia said - <u>ACQUIRE</u>  <br>
too? But Bill said that it it holding up. Felicia said that he sounds more  <br>
