Thinking of a GAME. Each player has 12 pcs. which are
squares with lines on each side. There are four types
with 3 of each:-
[diagram drawn of four pairs of two squares each with lines drawn on each square]
Play on a 12 x 12 board. The pcs. are arranged in a continuous
"snake," each player set up at one end. Movement is by
moving a pc. from one end to the other. Can be broken into
pcs. by taking a pc. out of the line - probably a max. of 3
pcs. would be desireable. Object to move across board to oppon-
ent's side. (from an idea of Claude's. See previous years)
With Claude and Anne to Toy City on Northern Blvd.

There is a board laid out in city blocks with 25
intersections matching 25 spaces in a Bingo-Type layout. The
other spaces are neutral. Each player has a marker token. Move by
throw of two dice. When land on a spot corresponding to an
empty space in the layout, place a marker on it. When your
token lands on another player's, you duel (with a special
gadget) and the winner can take a space of his choice from
the loser. When land on a spot corresponding to a filled space
on layout, duel with the owner. If you lose, he takes a space
from you. If you win, however, the space you landed on is
vacated but you must leave and return before you can take
it. First to get 5 in a row wins. For 2, 3, 4 players.
MAN FROM UNCLE (Ideal) Again didn't read it thru. Must
look at this again.
WILD TURKEY - Card bowling game. Apparently (rules are
not too clear) just turn card by card and score. Also a bidding
game using same cards.
Anne gave me an article on playing cards taken
