SATURDAY 12 FEBRUARY Georgia Day Abraham Lincoln, Born 1809 1966 43rd day - 322 days to come

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. Bought:-

  • CHAOS
  • 6 STEPS
  • F TROOP CARD GAME
  • SOUPY SALES CARD GAME

Saw:- I SPY (Ideal)

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 from Catholic Digest. Filed in "articles from periodicals."
