I said that I didn't know of any ancient game with differentiation | |||
and doubted whether he was correct - but I couldn't prove it. They | |||
made repros [reproductions] of pages from <u>A HISTORY OF BOARD GAMES OTHER THAN CHESS</u> | |||
and P's board and rules. We agreed that their rules were probably | |||
jazzed up for the popular taste. They ran off repros [reproductions] of the entire | |||
article for me and <s>FIFI</s> Fifi said she'd call on Friday to get my opinion | |||
as to whether the game plays or not. (She didn't call.) | |||
