9 SUNDAY - JUNE 1974
TRINITY SUNDAY - 160TH DAY - 205 DAYS TO COME

Finished writeup of SHIFTY CHECKERS - with some ideas for
variations. Wrote up CONNECT FOUR and UNO, completing
the S & T #45 column.
Dale and Larry read the column and liked it.

(cont. from 6/10) [6/12]

SPRINGER - he thought this one was very difficult, which I
disagreed. It is only difficult to play well. Played. He
wondered if the numbers in the [triangles] were necessary and I
said I thought they were. When Fay made repros he
had her make 12 for me. KLEE - He found this difficult to
follow and I agreed. We discussed the idea of each player
having 8 rows of three colors - 2 each of horizontal,
vertical, and the diagonals. These must be duplicated exactly.
I'll work on this idea. MIRO - Tried a little of both
versions and he thought that this is the most difficult -
the one to be described last. Incidentally, I can have one page
for the rules of each game.
He will now show the idea to the sales dept., using the notes
he took. I will let him know when I have KLEE in shape. I
told him that if the sales people have any objections to the
play of the games I can always work to their objections.

Played 500 RUMMY with dad and Ilka.
The TIMES book section had an ad in the form of a game
called THE WEIGHING GAME AND HOW TO WIN IT (Filed in '74 Misc.)
