In rearranging books on the upstairs shelves (for the holding piles
downstairs) discovered that the book <u>CHESSMEN<u/> I bought on 2/28
was a duplicate.
<br>Thought of the mechanism for <u>QUICK TRAP</u> (see 8/7). 12 cities
are located on the board, connected with paths made
up of circle in 4 different colors - in random order but with
equal numbers of each color. 2 to 4 play, using markers of
the same 4 colors. A set of 24 cards is used with the tour
colors arranged in all possible arrangements - and numbered
from "1" to "4" next to the colors. Another set of 12 cards
have the city names. Incidentally, on the board each city
is also marked with one of the four colors.
<br>The players each take a city card and place their marker in
that city. Then the city cards are reshuffled and placed face
down next to the board - next to numbers from 1 to 12. As
many cards, starting with 1, as there are players in the game
are turned face up. Players try to be the first to reach a
city with a face up card. The first collects points correspond-
ing with the number next to the card, and the card is removed
from the game. As soon as a card is won, a new one is faced-
up to the &#35;12.
