To Reiss. Spoke to Bob Reiss for a moment. He didn't remember about saying he might want me to do a GAME for a celebrity. Busy, and when I asked for copies of THE HARRY LORAYNE MEMORY GAME he said sure and to get them from "Michelle." Spoke to her and she gave me the 4 I asked for- and a shopping bag into which they fit.
Met Phil Laurence on Broadway. Told him I liked his BRIDGE FOR TWO and confirmed that the player taking the bid faces two move cards. After we parted realized I could have given him copy of THE HARRY LORAYNE MEMORY GAME and saved myself some carrying.
Bought typewriter ribbon at summit - $1.20 plus tax.
Stopped at Essex Games to get price info on COUNTERSTRIKE and possibly a copy. Noone there. Copied their telephone no. (255-1704).
To "Childcraft." Bought THE GATES - $2.99. Looked at 4 GAMES IN 3 DIMENSIONS. There is a 3x3x3 field. For OMNIGRAM there are cardboard squares with the alphabet and one blank. Players in turn place a square and score one point for each 3 letter word formed. The blank can be used as any letter, and is the only pc. that can be moved. For INVASION there are 8 pcs. each of two colors. These are set up on the top and bottom layers, leaving the center spaces empty. Movement is one space in any ortho- gonal direction, except vertically back towards a player's starting level. Jumps
