He also heard
He also heard something about a game called <u>LASKERS</u> - being played  <br>
on an 8 x 8 board. Told him the name sounds familiar.  <br>
I know I have a clipping that I got from <u>Martin Gardner</u> and  <br>
told him I'd send a repro. he asked if he ought to get  <br>
in touch with Martin. I told him I'd check with Martin on it, but  <br>
I doubt if he has anything further.  <br>
He'll send me a repro of <u>Kraitchik</u>'s French version of <u>LASCA</u>.  <br>
Also the table of contents of the French version which has  <br>
more pages. However, he doesn't think there are any more topics.  <br>
Looked for the clipping from Martin after the call. It is  <br>
from (I believe) an English publication and describes <u>LASCA</u>  <br>
under <u>THE GAME OF LASKERS</u>.
