SUNDAY 18 DECEMBER Fourth Sunday in Advent 1966 352nd day - 13 days to come

In Sunday Times had add for TIPP-ROULETTE. (See 1966 Ad Clips.)

Took Bernice, Edith, and another woman to a bazaar in White Plains. I bought a copy of BOOM OR BUST (in a smaller box) and a nice small GO, $2.75 for the two of them.

Thinking of a new approach to DATA PROCESSING. Each player has a card with the 60 cards arranged so that those of the same classification are arranged in a horizontal row. Each card and its corresponding box is identified in some way. When a player takes cards from an opponent, he puts a marker on each space he has taken (except if it was covered before). Object to cover 1 (or perhaps 2) complete horizontal rows. Get extra points for completing "South America" or "Australia" Possible variations:-- Use less than 10 of each in a horizontal row so that each card is different. Or And/or spaces can only be covered in order starting from the left.

To Claude's. He gave me HURRICANE as a present. It is an attrac- tive sailing race game. Played THE FIRST MILLION with Claude, Jacquie and Raymond. Forgot about distributing all the spaces by use of cards at the be- ginning & it was very slow starting. Also thinking of sev- eral improvements.

Rcd. X'mas cards from Warren Buell and Paul Greenough's wife, Jacquie.

Dana mentioned that he has been hearing 3M ads on WHN. There is one for ACQUIRE alone and one that mentions a number, not including ACQUIRE. There are others mentioning other games individually.
