Call from <u>Phil Orbanes</u>. | Call from <u>Phil Orbanes</u>. He wanted to come by today (since snow is | ||
predicted for tomorrow) to drop off the frame (not the complete | |||
<u>GAME</u>) that he wants me to use as a sample for | |||
<u>THE RIGHT WORD</u>. But I have to go downtown. Arranged that I'd go | |||
to his house on Sunday about 12:30. He also has the models of | |||
the <u>SPECTACULARS</u>, which <u>Andrea Green</u> sent to him. Some are | |||
too easy and others impossible and <u>Manny Lefkowitz</u>, Andrea says, is | |||
losing interest. We'll go over them and see what we can do to get | |||
them to work right. | |||
<br>Phil was at the <u>GAMES</u> office and spoke with <u>Ronnie Shushan</u> | |||
(who I don't believe I met). They came up with one idea for an article | |||
on "Games That Never Should Have Been." They came up with | |||
<u>THE TINY TIM GAME</u>, <u>SHA-EE</u>, and <u>HAPPINESS</u> (the last 2 forced on | |||
Ideal and MB by <u>Marvin Glass</u>) and would like about 3 more. Phil | |||
thinks that I can find them in my collection and that we can work | |||
together on the article. I hesitated over possibly offending P. but he | |||
said that they mentioned <u>THE TINY TIME GAME</u> as a flop in their book | |||
<br>90 YEARS OF FUN</u>. There is no hurry since it will be due 3/15/78 and the | |||
earliest. Later looked and I don't have a complete <u>HAPPINESS</u>. Only parts from Xerox. | |||
I mentioned <u>DIPLOMACY</u> for 2 but Phil said <u>THE RIGHT WORD</u> is much more possible. | |||
<br>To S.P.I. Gave my column to <u>Brad Hessel</u>. He'd like the next one by 1/26/78. | |||
