Call from <u>Phil Orbanes</u>. He read the rules for
<u>WHAT'S IT WORTH TO YOU?</u> and liked them - tho he didn't have
time to play. He spoke to <u>Van Zedwitz</u> about the theme
of <u>COLLECTOR'S CHOICE</u> and he like it - whcih will carry
weight with Djoli. I mentioned that I had ideas for
lengthening the stand-up game.
<br><u>Carl Eisenberg</u> would like another 12 p&p games and
would like to start looking at them by the end of July.
Phil is counting on me to supply the bulk of them. We
discussed the ones that <u>Fred Feucht</u> had - my original
batch. Phil would like me to disguise them, but I said
that there isn't any chance that he will be able to <s>g</s> do
anything with them.
<br>Carl said he'd like the rules to be no longer than those
for <u>NINETACTOE</u>. We arranged to have me pick up a set from
Carl Thursday.
Looked at Hargrave's <u>A HISTORY OF PLAYING CARDS AND A BIBLIOGRAPHY
OF CARDS AND GAMING</u>. Saw that there wasn't much that I
really had to look at in Cincinatti.

copy. He said that the <s>errand</s> error - Auranches replaced by

<br>He showed me a large airplane they ordered for <u>HOLIDAY</u>.
I was afraid that it would be too big in Europe, but he said
that the players would manage.
To Hoi Polloi and got copies of <u>NINETACTOE</u>, <u>VEGAS 13</u>,
<u>WORDPLAY</u>, <u>CHINESECHEK</u>, and <u>DAM-IT!</u> Spoke to <u>Carl Eisenberg</u>
and he'd like about a dozen games for the p & p line
by the <s>beginning</s> middle of September (I believe) but he'd like to
start looking at them by the middle of July. I told him
more likely the end of July. O.K.
<br>I asked if he still wants some solitaires (<u>NO WAY</u>). He
said no. A solitaire is O.K. in connection with a game, but not
alone.
<br>He said that X - Springbok had missed the boat by waiting so
long to come out with their new line. Actually he knows that
