first. In case of tie throw dice and low goes first. When  <br>
all property has been claimed, the player claiming the last  <br>
piece then drills and continue in clockwise order  <br>
(which is not the way we did it, but is probably better).  <br>
The second game was much closer.  <br>
Played <u>AIR BATTLE</u> with Phil. It played O.K. except that the  <br>
record keeping was a little tricky. Phil suggested just  <br>
having the airfields and the guns, and I think he is right.

and Adela. They liked them.  <br>
At first showed me a <u>PUZZLE</u> he was working on. There were  <br>
two plastic pcs. with two sizes of holes and  <br>
some spaces without holes (Similar to sketch <br>
shown). There are 3 pegs (as shown). <br>
 
[Diagram of a 4 x 4 grid with holes as described above. Also shows one 'peg'.]
 
Object is to one pc. on the lower level  <br>
so that it is stable and the other on  <br>
the upper level.  <br>
This was rather easy, but he is making  <br>
another one with 3 levels, which will make  <br>
it much more challenging.  <br>
I asked about his "Checkerboard" <u>PUZZLES</u> (see 1/21). He  <br>
decided to try it with <u>Edson</u>. Edson was talking about  <br>
Hallmark or Gabriel. With Gabriel, Edson was talking about  <br>
having them marketed as <u>Piet Hein</u> puzzles, which didn't  <br>
make Al very happy.  <br>
