A PARTY CAME
SCR YMBLPD NAMES
Unscrambling "pied'' names of presidents (or others) may be dull, but it can be made excitin^^for parties by this twist: Director prepares two identical copies of each scrambled name to.be used, on separate pieces of paper. (For a large number of fairly large letters in ink; a smaller crowd can use typewritten copies) .
Director has a table at 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 secre-
tary of each group tc the judge's desk must be the same. Each side chooses a 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 secretary, whowith aid of his team deciphers it: and secretary writes correct answer* in full (correctly spelled) on paperand returns it to "judge. First back, wins a point.
