152ND DAY - 214 DAYS TO COME

Downtown to Jerry D'Arcey's room in Statler Hilton Hotel. He
showed me the games he is presenting to the manufacturers,
most of which are not his own.
STOREKEEPER - party game. Each player is given a card with
a type of store and a list of items sold in that store. They
then turn it over after looking at it. They are then dealt
cards with different objects on them, which are kept face
down in a pile. They are faced one at a time. When two of
the same object show each player calls out an object sold in
his store. First wins the cards in the other's face-up
pile (I believe). Can't repeat the same object during game.
SCOOPERS AND SNOOPERS - a board game about reporters getting
scoops and bringing them back to their paper. Played
with dice but didn't get the details. By Hans Goldschmidt,
and didn't look very interesting.
SKULLDUGGERY - (see 1971 diary).
KU-FU - It is now played with 30 pcs., 7 each of blue, red, green, and
yellow and 2 purple.
