Created page with "25 Saturday - August 1973 <br>237th day - 128 days ---- Charlie left a clipping from <s>the</s> <u>NEWSDAY</u> with an article on a device - called the <u>BETFINDER</u> - which gives you the proper size of bets for different gambling games. (Filed in '73 misc. [1973 miscellaneous]) Dale and Phil looked at "Gameways" on Bloor St. in Toronto. All my 3M games were there."

All my 3M games were there.
<br>Phil took info on the following as the only games that looked
different:
<br><u>ALGONQUIN VOYAGEURS</u> (by Lloyd Travel Games - $6.00). Teaches
about trails and camping.
<br><u>THE GREAT GAME OF BRITAIN</u> (by Condor - $6.00). Similar to
<u>THE LONDON GAME</u>.
<br><u>MULTIOPSONY</u> (by House of Gordon - $7.00). Similar to <u>MONOPOLY</u>,
but with somewhat more choices.
Finished getting a solution for each type of piece in the
center for <u>THE 31ST HEX</u>.
<br>Played a game with <u>Phil Laurence</u>. Each player in turn
draws a piece blindly and <s>play</s> places it, the first
one in the center and then connected, obeying the
laws of the puzzle. Object is for each player to fill
the two "goal spaces" across from each other (4 spaces
total). The game became bogged done and it was necessary
to replace pieces placed. Couldn't decide what the penalty for
this would be and what happens to the piece removed.
