SATURDAY 22 JANUARY 1966 22nd day - 343 days to come

To Claude's with BB and Dana. Played Claude's SPLIT SPLIT PERSONALITY. 8 played. Each player has a card with four clues (such as "disrobe") in the four corners. These clues will help him to get four pcs. which form either the right or left half of a face. The pcs. are cut jigsaw fashion so that only the proper 4 will fit together. Each player is dealt four pcs. with neuroses (such as "I have "An uncontrollable urge to disrobe"). Players say "I have an uncontrollable urge to disrobe," etc. Another player wanting his card gives any he wishes and oth first player must accept it as a trade. After a plyer completes a half face he looks for the other half. First pair to match up wins. Game was over too fast. Also a player who did not make any announcement loused it up for others who needed his pcs.

Spoke to Claude about a deduction type game he has. Tentatively called DEDUCTION. There are topological diagrams something like the following:- [Drawing of various shaped squares that are numbered and connected to create a larger square] The murderer fills in the six letters designating the occupants of the 6 houses and also picks one as the murderer. There are question cards (such as does the Dentist live next to the Baker and the Engineer?) which the setter of the problem answers "yes" or "no." Getting and use of the question cards is to be worked out by Claude.

Claude and I played an action GAME which consisted of we played on a MAGNATELS board. Used 6 discs and each player used a stick. Start with one disc in each pocket. Each player takes one long side and playing as fast as possible tries to poke the discs out of his pockets and hit them into his opponent's. First player to get all discs out of his half of board wins. Game is Claude's invention [drawing of rectangle, split down the horizontal middle with a dashed line, and pockets at each corner and one in between each corner on the long sides (looks like birds-eye view of a pool table)]

Rcd. another air letter from Haar Hoolim about his search for ARMOR.

Claude gave me a listing of 10 rec religious games, mainly quiz games. Filed in 1966 ad clips folder. (cont. on 1/23)
