                                         Created page with "25 Saturday - August 1973  <br>237th day - 128 days  ----  Charlie left a clipping from <s>the</s> <u>NEWSDAY</u> with  an article on a device - called the <u>BETFINDER</u> - which  gives you the proper size of bets for different  gambling games. (Filed in '73 misc. [1973 miscellaneous])    Dale and Phil looked at "Gameways" on Bloor St. in Toronto.  All my 3M games were there."

All my 3M games were there.  | All my 3M games were there.  | ||
<br>Phil took info on the following as the only games that looked  | |||
different:  | |||
<br><u>ALGONQUIN VOYAGEURS</u> (by Lloyd Travel Games - $6.00). Teaches  | |||
about trails and camping.  | |||
<br><u>THE GREAT GAME OF BRITAIN</u> (by Condor - $6.00). Similar to  | |||
<u>THE LONDON GAME</u>.  | |||
<br><u>MULTIOPSONY</u> (by House of Gordon - $7.00). Similar to <u>MONOPOLY</u>,   | |||
but with somewhat more choices.  | |||
Finished getting a solution for each type of piece in the  | |||
center for <u>THE 31ST HEX</u>.  | |||
<br>Played a game with <u>Phil Laurence</u>. Each player in turn  | |||
draws a piece blindly and <s>play</s> places it, the first   | |||
one in the center and then connected, obeying the  | |||
laws of the puzzle. Object is for each player to fill  | |||
the two "goal spaces" across from each other (4 spaces  | |||
total). The game became bogged done and it was necessary  | |||
to replace pieces placed. Couldn't decide what the penalty for  | |||
this would be and what happens to the piece removed.  | |||
