<u>LOCUS POKUS</u> :- <s>THE</s> The letters in the name of the game are
placed at the top of a board with 10 spaces under with random
figures in the 100 spaces formed. Cards have designations
such as L3, O10, etc. These are called out and players place
markers in any proper spaces. Win by getting 5 in a chain
such as [drawing of three separate chains, each with 5 squares connecting].
<u>SHUFFLE-LO</u> :- Move up a board till land on a scoring space layed
out like a Shuffleboard. I suggested some provision for
<s>moving discs out of</s> knocking discs from one space to another.
<u>TRAVEL-RAMA</u>:- A travel game on a quadrille map. Move from
one square to another, avoiding marked hazard squares.
<u>BOWLING</u> :- Nothing of interest.
<u>WORD GAME</u>:- His original idea was that the dice
[diagram drawn to right: 6 x 6 grid
(first row): 6 | A | B | E | D | A | F
(second row): 5 | U | H | J | K | I | O
(third row): 4 | C | E | L | U | G | N
(fourth row): 3 | I | M | O | I | E | P
(fifth row): 2 | R | Z | W | T | X | W
(sixth row): 1 | O | Q | A | V | Y | S
(bottom label): 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 ]
were thrown 6 times by each player,
giving six distinct letters. These are written
down by the players and they then proceed
to make <s>letter</s> words from the letters. Score
1 point for each letter in a word. After 3 words
get 1 point bonus. After another 3 words score
another 2 point bonus. A 3 point bonus after the
ninth word and a 4 point bonus after the 12th
word. My suggestion for improvement. Let a dice throw,
except doubles, give a choice of letters. Difficult letters have
a bonus number connected with them which is scored each time
they are used in a word.
I told Dave I'd talk to my agents. His numbers are:-
Home - JE6-7398.
Wife's office - LO8-8400.
