<u>PATTON</u> - $1,231.27; <u>HOLIDAY</u> - $597.62; total - $1828.89 enclosed.<br> | |||
$962.87 to me; $334.09 to 1-S; $307.82 to <u>Bob Champer</u>; $224.11 <br> | |||
to <u>Ruth Shaller</u>.<br> | |||
Red. a letter from <u>Walter Dykoski</u> saying that he was sending me <br> | |||
the pcs, for <u>CRESCENDO CHESS</u>, Also sent some descriptive material.<br> | |||
<u> | Call from dad. The translations that I ran off on 11/27 <br> | ||
of <u>SIROCO</u>, <u>ZIG-ZAG</u> and <u>WIEKSLAG</u> were given to him <br> | |||
on 12/24, as well as the missing parts from <u>SPECTRUM</u>. <br> | |||
He finds the <u>ZIG-ZAG</u> is not Dutch. Checked and discovered <br> | |||
that it was Danish. <br> | |||
Put contact on the back of the cards for <u>THE NAVAL GAME</u>. <br> | |||
(A roll of blue contact that I bought for 75¢ at an ORT bazaar was useless.)<br> | |||
Played <u>FOREIGN INTRIGUE</u> with the <u>Richters</u> (I used 28 <br> | |||
of the "spy identity" cards and crossed off the removed ones <br> | |||
from the "spy lists." Made some extra "no assignment" card <br> | |||
by writing over some others - making a total deck of 56 cards.) <br> | |||
It played very well. Decided to allow a player at any time <br> | |||
to throw in as many cards as he wishes and replace them <br> | |||
from the deck, as his complete turn. Decided to score the <br> | |||
game simply by number of spy "envelopes" he has at the <br> | |||
end of the game. Later decided to allow a player, on his <br> | |||
turn, to "challenge" another player even if that player's name <br> | |||
doesn't show. He can't give him an assignment however. A <br> | |||
player may give more than one "challenge" on a turn, but may <br> | |||
not give an assignment in that turn. <br> | |||
Played <s>the</s> <u>THE NAVAL GAME</u> with Al. Pleasant. There are a <br> | |||
few things unclear in the rules.<br> | |||
Showed them <u>HUEMANIA TIC-TAC-TOE</u> and played a very quick <br> | |||
game with Al.<br> | |||
Asked Al about the availability of "circuit boards." He said kits <br> | |||
can be purchased at Radio Shack or other similar places for <br> | |||
etching your own circuits. Another type uses tape to make the <br> | |||
circuit. | |||
