SUNDAY 14 NOVEMBER
Twenty Second Sunday after Trinity 1965 318th day - 47 days to come
Quick look at my games, books, files, and Parker material.
Took plane to Chicago. Met Bud Meier of 3M.
[star] was on Jack Eigen's radio program on WMAG for abt. 40 minutes
(contin. from 11/15)
govt. "plan", he may ask for a court order voiding the "plan". Pay
$1000 and draw a "verdict" card. If verdict is "no" he still has
to pay for plan. Players loose their money and drop out. Last
in wins. There are also derogatory mentions of unions.
At Brentano's saw LO-MAN (Are-Jay Co. - Cleveland). - Another
game of throwing 2 dice and turning over number from 1 to 9.
Low score (man) wins.
SPACE FUN (Review & Herald Publ. Co. - Wash. D.C.) - card-quiz game
based on space.
Españ ESPAÑOL (Exclusive Playing Card Co. - Chicago) Cards with
Spanish words on them. Game is played similar to ANAGRAMS
using sentences instead of words.
PURSUIT - Another Parchisi variation played with marbles in holes.
DOMO-SOLO (From Holland). Set of 15 dominos with all combinations,
of 3 colo including doubles, of 5 colors. Object is to make a
5 x 6 layout in which each color appears in row of 3 (2 rows for
each color). There are chips of colors matching the dominos.
These can be set in positions which have to be matched, by
color, in the final layout. From 4 to 7 chips can be used
and there is definite way of arranging them which I didn't
get. A solitaire game - or rather puzzle.
WHIST-O [WHIST-BINGO] (Lucio P. & Linda M. Salvucci - 1965)
Each player has a layout with 4 vertical columns, each with the
13 cards of 1 suit arranged in order. Play is in tricks
and the winner of a trick covers cards on his layout. Appar-
antly only cards of the suit led are covered but this is
not at all clear in the instructions. Object is to cover 5 in
a row of 1 suit or 4 of the same rank.
At Palmer House gift shop bought 3-LETTER WORD (Gizz Fun Games)
At Marshall-Field bought 2 books:- GONG HEE FOT CHOY
& HANDBOOK OF MOST WIDELY USED BRIDGE CONVENTIONS
At Brentano's bought PIRATE'S HUNT (Washburne).
[star] was interviewed by a reporter from The Chicago Daily News,
and photographed. Was told it would be used on Wednesday
of this week. [crossed out, illegible]
