Thinking of some ideas for DOMINOES variations. GAMES.
1) Dominos are layed [sic] out like a board. Pcs. move from square to square. To move to a square with the same number or lower there is no expenditure for each number difference. Pieces have a given - say 10 - number of units available each turn. A war game can be played on a 7 and 8 layout wh with armies being located at opposite ends. Another layout would be a 5x11 with one square sticking out from the center of one side. Object would be to occuppy [sic] this square and hold it for one turn, as a race game a continuous track could be layed out.
2) Play with matching, but instead of a line a match can be made anywhere and if both ends of the domino match the player plays again.
Call from Felicia. A storekeeper who used to order BALI from her wrote to ask where he could get KRYPTO. Told her that the company was out of business but that G&R, who had handled it, might be able to tell her. She was so desparate [sic] for money that she called Michaelson to see if he tell her how much would be coming from 3M for the 3rd quarter. Estimating Sept. he told her that she would get $375 for her 15%. If this is true, the total amount with will be less than 50% of last year's.
