Rcd. a New Year card from Haar Hoolim. Also - why hasn't he
heard from me?

Rcd. 9 answers to the SLEUTH problem.

In Monaco bought ELDORADO (Edmond Dujardin) and
DIX PETITS INDIENS (Gay-Play). Gay-Play also mentioned
DIAMINO, DIAMINO-POKER, LE TOUR DU MONDE EN 80 JOURS, and
DEFENSE D'AFFICHER.

complete it because we were too tired.

chains and then throws 2 dice - 1 regulation and 1
with 3 "up" and 3 "down" faces. The result moves the price
up or down 10 points for each 1 on the regular die. The
maximum price of a chain is $3,000 and the minimum
12 $100. (Jerry had the die with 3 up and 3 down faces.
In general a player wanted the price to move in a certain
direction, but it was completely a matter of luck. I suggested,
and Jerry agreed, to have 2 up, 2 down, and
2 blank faces. When a blank is thrown the player chooses
the direction.)
"Demand" (9 of).
