A PARTY GAME
SCRAMBLED NAMES Unscrambling "pied" names' of presidents (or others) may be rather dull* it it can be made exciting for parties by this twist : Director prepares two identical copies of each scrambled, name to be used, 011 separate pieces, of paper. (For a large number of players, use fairly large letters in ink; a smaller crowd can use typewritten copies). Director has a table al some point in the room that will allow the two groups to be as remote as possible from judge, and yet not close to each other. The distance from the secretary of each group to the judge's desk most be the same. Each, side chooses u secretary and a courier. At the beginning of the game, the judge gives a copy of this scrambled name (same to each) to each courier who returns it to the secretary, Avho with aid of his team deciphers it: and secretary writes correct answer in full (correctly spelled) on paper and returns it to judge. First hack wins a point.
