the name.
Thought of a new idea for <u>RIDE - A - RAY</u>. Have a set of cards, each of  <br>
which has a colored circle and a colored line, in different combinations  <br>
of colors. Play with "Rummy" type hands. When get a hand that  <br>
allows a player to rech his destination he plays the cards. The lines  <br>
are used to get onto a line of that color <s>and the</s> and once on can  <br>
transfer without another line card. A circle card must be used for every  <br>
transfer. When drawing cards for a turn, players may either discard or  <br>
not as they wish. After reaching a destination, the less cards a  <br>
player has unused the more points he gets. (Rough idea - but I think  <br>
it's a step in the right direction.)
Alice called for help in getting up her report on the Stationery Show  <br>
for X. Discussed things in general.
At Brentano's saw <u>CHECKLINE</u> (Crestline Games - California). Played on a  <br>
4 x 4 x 4 field. 2 to 4 can play. "Two methods of playing. Skill version  <br>
is playing any position until someone gets four in a row.  <br>
The <s>less sk</s> partial skill version uses a die. The 4 levels are  <br>
identified by numbers 1, 2, 3, 4. Players in turn throw the die  <br>
and place a piece on that level. A throw of 5 gives a choice  <br>
of levels. A throw of 6 results in a penalty. The proceeding player  <br>
removes one of the throwing player's [crossed out] pieces. These pieces  <br>
are placed in a penalty pile. When a player completes 4 in a row  <br>
he takes all the pieces on the board and also all the penalty pcs.  <br>
Each player starts with the same number of chips, When a player loses  <br>
all of his pieces he is out of the game.
Saw <u>TRI - OMINOS</u> (Pressman). Played with a set of 56 pieces  <br>
which are as shown (with the exception that some with  <br>
3 different numbers might go in a different direction -  <br>
tho mine are completely consistent).  <br>
(I probably would have bought this, but it cost $4 and the  <br>
printing of the numbers on the pcs. was horrible.)
