SUNDAY 9 AUGUST 1970
Eleventh Sunday after Trinity
221st day - 144 days to come
Dickens called to say that he had forgotten his hat yesterday. I
drove it down to him with BB & Dale coming along.
After leaving him we went to Brentano's. I saw TURN-TAC-TOE
(Stor-Mor). The board is as shown and
there are pegs in two colors. When 4
play they are partners and sit across from
each other. Players in turn place
a peg in the field facing them, then
turn one of the 3 rings 90 [degrees] in a
clockwise direction. Play also rotates to
the left. A variation has the ring rotation
and the play going in opposite directions.
[Diagram of 3 concentric rings with an arrow in the center indicating clockwise rotation.]
When two play each player can, in a turn, play in either
the field facing him or the one across from it.
Win by completing any line of three.
Called Claude and he brought up the subject of whether his
SPLIT PERSONALITY or his GROUP THERAPY</u. games (see 1963 and
later) would be better for X. I said that a true game with
different ways in which it can develop is more what they
are looking for than an ice-breaker.
Called Arthur. Nothing specifically about games.
Wrote to Jim Ktauss, Keith Tuggle, & Ed Tucker with my
finally theory on PATTRERNS II.
