-<u>LANDGRAB</u>.
-<u>LANDGRAB</u>. Played until I had sewed up. He liked. He took
the two sets of "bid cards."
<br>-<u>LAPS</u>. I told him that I wasn't satisfied with this, but
after we played a little he said he liked it. Possible name -
<u>THE GREAT RACE</u>.
<br>-<u>TRIVIA</u> (Phil's). The same as <u>CATEGORIES</u> except that there
is a bonus for getting a line of 5, horizontally or
vertically. (I asked Phil to please not make it anything
like 3M's <u>FACT IN FIVE</u>. He says that this bonus rule
is one that is used in a lot of TV shows.)
<br>Phil gave me a clipping from <u>NEWSWEEK</u> where <u>Gini Scott</u> is
mentioned as a swinging single. Her games <u>LIB</u> and
<u>CONFRONTATION</u> are mentioned.
<br>He sent her copies of <u>CAR-TEL</u>, <u>MONTAGE</u>, <u>REALM</u>, and
<u>INFINITY</u> for review in her column.
<br>He just rcd. his copy of <u>G&P</u> #16 (and I still haven't rcd. #15).
It has a feature on <u>THE SIGMA FILE</u> and I borrow it.
<br>We took a lunch break <s>and</s> at an expensive restaurant -
on "Gamut of Games." (At least I hope so.)
<br>Took two copies each of <u>CAR-TEL</u> and <u>REALM</u> and one each of
<u>MONTAGE</u> and <u>INFINITY</u>.
<br>We figured that with the projected sales of the A&P games we'll each get about $9,000.
<br>While walking on Madison Ave saw <s>an</s> still another game
