MISCELLANEOUS ACTIVE GAMES
_10 to 30 or more players._
_Parlor; schoolroom._
All the players are numbered and seated in a circle, except one, who
stands in the center and twirls a platter, tray, or some other round
object. As he starts it spinning, he calls any number that he chooses,
and the player bearing that number must at once spring forward and try
to catch the platter before it ceases to spin and falls to the floor.
If successful, he returns to his place in the circle. If not
successful, he takes the place of the spinner and pays a forfeit. The
forfeits are all redeemed at the end of the game.
This game may also be played by calling the players by name instead of
numbering them.
