ROYAL EUCHRE
to riiK ennoa o» n;r. rnKss Sir, —Three-handed royal euchre is played with 32 cards, eight cards a player, 21 up. To win the player must get five tricks and one for every extra trick". If a player is euchred the opponents divide two points and he goes back three. For going alone the player can score 10 points, but if euchred he goes back four, and his opponents divide six points. For royal alone the player exposes his hand and if euciired goes back 10, his opponent scoring 11 points. For four-handed royal euchre the game is 31 up, and it. is played similarly to three-handed. For six-Landed royal euchre the full pack is used, except the four deuce spots. The best part of the game is that no player can hold a certainty, having two bowers and an ace.— Yours, etc., SEARCHLIGHT. Ly-tteltori, June 25, 1935.
