(Not sure of all of the details.)
Gave Michael a copy of the ''<u>S&T</u>'' promotional game, <br>
<u>NAPOLEON AT WATERLOO</u>, (He gave it to his children.)
 
Michael showed me <u>DIMENSION WARFARE CHESS</u> (from Soochow China).
It seemed to be an elaborate wargame, an extension of  <br>
<u>CHESS</u> with pcs. [pieces] - land, sea, and air - of modern warfare.  <br>
Michael was willing to give it to me, but thinks he might be  <br>
able to get a friend to translate the Chinese rules. So he kept  <br>
it.
 
He had a game <u>KARGO</u> (<u>CARD-GOLF</u>) (Copyright 1931 by  <br>
Gaymes Ltd.). It seemed a rather interesting game of its  <br>
type.  Michael borrowed it from someone, but will get me a  <br>
copy of the rules and a description of the cards before  <br>
returning it.
 
He also had the book <u>THE GAME KHANHOO</u> by <u>William Henry</u>  <br>
