have to be allowable for the 4-hand game, and probably the 3. <br> | |||
We played and the players making the even number moves <br> | |||
had a tremendous advantage since he could put the 2nd pc, in a <br> | |||
pile. I suggested allowing three in a pile and we tried a <br> | |||
little of it. It seemed better. <br> | |||
<u>CULPRET</u>: - Played on a 6 x 5 field. Each player has 10 pcs, num- | |||
bered from 1 to 10. These are placed on the first two rows at <br> | |||
each of the short ends, at random. Each player picks one of <br> | |||
his numbers, secretly, as the one he intends to try and <br> | |||
reach the far row. In a turn a <s>pc. can move</s> player <br> | |||
moves one of his pcs. orthogonally as many spaces as he <br> | |||
wishes, with as many turns as he wishes, as long as the <br> | |||
spaces are empty. Or instead a pc. can make one or a series <br> | |||
of short jumps over pcs. of either color. Also a player <br> | |||
in his turn can move any pc., except the one just moved, <br> | |||
regardless of the player who owns it. <br> | |||

I'll come there on the evening of 6/20. <br> | |||
