"glommed" and must (I am pretty sure)
"glommed" and must (I am pretty sure) stay together for the  <br>
rest of the game. They all move together, each individual checker  <br>
having its usual move, but the same move for each.  <br>
When "gloms" meet, opposing that is, the larger takes off  <br>
the smaller.  <br>
Each player has one special piece which, once played, remains  <br>
there. It is placed in front of an opponent's "Glom" and  <br>
that "glom" can no longer move, unless it can slide passed in  <br>
a diagonally forward move (which normally shouldn't be available if  <br>
the opponent plays well).  <br>
Object is to reach opponent's home row, make last legal move,  <br>
or eliminate opponent.  <br>
Told Jerry that it was completely new to me. He wants to make some  <br>
kind of a gadget on which to place the checkers (he intends  <br>
to use cylinders) so that a "Glom" can be moved together. Then  <br>
he'll fly east to sell it to Parker.
 
Call from <u>Claude</u>. <u>Norton Cross</u> liked <u>BIG FUNERAL</u> after playing  <br>
part of a game with Claude. He took a copy for further testing.  <br>
I reminded Claude again that Stancraft had been miserable  <br>
in sales so far.  <br>
Claude had a call from <u>Frank Armbruster</u> when he, Claude,  <br>
wasn't in. Now he's trying to reach Frank.
 
BB typed the rules for <u>LOTTERY</u> and <u>SKYSCRAPERS</u>. I did the  <br>
diagrams for the latter. Dana & Phil got copies at the  <br>
Copy Shop (now up to 7 [cents] a copy). Did the rest of the "City"  <br>
cards and then packaged <u>LOTTERY</u>. Up till 2:30  <br>
