folder.
 
Rcd. a letter from Fr. Daniel. He has a variation of <u>BATTLESHIP</u>. Ships may move one or two spaces but after a move must shoot. Since the shot must be no further than 3 spaces in a straight line away from the shot, each shot helps give away the position of the ship.
 
He also mentions an <u>AUTO-RACE GAME</u>. Huge board about 4'x5' with a race course replete with twists and turns. 8 can play. The race course is made up of connected squares. It starts out with 8 tracks and narrows down to four and sometimes to two. We use two decks of bridge cards with the A to 4's removed. Your car travels the number of spaces on the card. Pictures are worth ten. Red cards enable you to turn either way one space before continuing to play out the card. Spade cards enable you to pass any car that is in your way. Not perfected yet.
