Rcd. THE GENERAL (Sep.-Oct. '73). Has rules and PCs. for a
MIDWAY variant called LEYTE GULF. Articles on FRANCE, 1940,
ORIGINS OF WWII (three variants), 1914 (a little revision), and
PANZERBLITZ.

At a bazaar bought a gadget called FIDDLE TREE, which I made [may?]
be able to use for some game ideas. ($1.00). Also a set of magnetic
CHECKERS (10¢).
Played
Thinking of a possible idea for speeding up POP-SHAPE-AND SHATTER.
When a player has the "block-buster" and makes a throw that
would get it, instead of losing his turn he can take any
PC. he wishes.
Played with Al Richter u, Brian, and Laura. Then with Al and Brian.
Then Al and me. None lasted too long and 2-hand was too
short. But I was very lucky in getting the color I needed to
finish up. Showed them some of the puzzles and I came up
with another solution for yellow-orange-blue.
