[Diagram of 5 rectangular cards layed out horizontally next to 3 mor layed out vertically.]
The five horizontal cards are taken first, then  <br>
the three <s>horizontal</s> in a vertical column.  <br>
The scoring has the following addition  <br>
(which probably was there in '70). A fifth  <br>
column to the right is used for entering the net results  <br>
of each of the other 4 columns. These are totalled. The  <br>
player with the net surplus wins this, multiplied by the  <br>
number of entries he has in the 5th column. If there  <br>
is a tie in one of the first four columns it is won by the  <br>
player with more entries in that column. If the same, the  <br>
first to win governs. The "0" is entered in the 5th column.  <br>
If that player has the higher total, the ")" counts as an  <br>
entry in determining his multiplier.
