Home Line

tlie one that has been settled, the front rank swings round and tries to capture the other team. Those in the rear rank dash for the home line. There are two ways of planning this game. All those who fail to reach the home line can be taken into their captor's team, and the game repeated with the augmented team stiU in the front rank until all the rear rank are captured. The number of rounds needed to achieve this will be noted, and then the team restarted with their positions reversed. If the original rear rank from its new position at the front captures the opponents needed, then the game is won because of this lower number. Alternatively, players need not be transferred after each round, but teams can restart having reversed their positions so that pursuer now becomes pursued. The captures made in each round are recorded, and the winning team is that which first achieves the total of fifty.
