Regular football rules are used and the count is the same as in football. It will add to the interest, if the two teams stand for rival colleges.
MUSICAL MEDLEY.
Number eight slips of paper with the same number. On each slip write a part, or a line from a verse of a familiar song. Suppose set No. 1 was a verse of "America," this is the way it would be written.
1. My country,
1. 'Tis of thee,
1. Sweet land of liberty,
1. Of thee I sing;
1. Land where my fathers died,
1. Land of the pilgrim's pride,
1. From every mountain side,
1. Let freedom ring.
Prepare as many slips in groups of eight as there are guests. Give each one a slip at random and tell each to find the rest of his set.
When the players of one group have found each other, they stand together in one corner of the room and practise their song. Each group does this until all the groups are formed, and then, commencing with No. 1, each group in turn sings its song aloud for the benefit of the audience.
ANOTHER MUSICAL MEDLEY.
Provide each player with pencil and paper. Before playing this game it must be arranged with someone who plays the piano well to have a list of popular songs ready, which she must play one right after the other.
