<br>On way to flea market in Newton stopped at a yard sale. I bought copies of
<u>SITUATION 7</u> and <u>SITUATION 4</u> for 50¢ each. (Later checked them
and found that all of the puzzle pcs. [pieces]were there, but a few plastic
pcs. were missing. Replaced them from the sets I bought on 9/12/76 and
6/3/77.) Also bought a book <u>MAZES</u> for 10¢. Also <u>GAME INVENTOR'S KIT</u>
for 35¢ (discarded the box and kept the pcs. and board as equp't. [equipment]).
<br>Ronnie bought <u>3UP</u> and <u>EASY MONEY</u> for the equp't. He bought
a deluxe <u>KEYWORD</u> for 75¢, which he didn't have. For 10¢ he bought
<u>LUCKIE STRIKE</u>: There is a deck of 40 cards divided into <s>fou</s> ten
sets of four. When 3 play 5 sets are used (20 cards); 4-7 sets;
5-8 sets; 6-9 sets; 7-10 sets. There are 6 sticks and one less
than the number of players is used. The cards are all dealt out.
Then simultaneously players pass a card to the left. When a player
completes a set of 4 he places it face up on the table and takes a
stick. Others then grab. Player placing the set marks off a letter
along "Luckie" on a score sheet. Player without a stick, or who makes
a mistake, marks off along "Strike."
