Patent US 4,690,409

A game includes an indicator board having a pointer pivotally supported over a first dial face divided into sectors, each sector having indicia to identify an integer therein. The board also includes a pointer pivotally mounted over a second dial face having at least twenty six sectors, each sector including indicia to identify a letter of the alphabet. In addition, letter indicia members corresponding to the letters identified in the second dial piece are manipulated by a player to form abbreviations, acronyms, or initials. The method of practicing the game includes randomly selecting an integer on the first dial face to be used to determine the number of letters to be used during a player's turn, randomly selecting alphabetic letters on the second dial face to determine the particular letters to be used during a player's turn, and selecting corresponding indicia members which are then arranged and juxtapositioned to make abbreviations, acronyms or initials recognizable to the player. A score sheet is used as a means for recording point values for the number of letter indicia members employed during the course of a player's turn to successfully produce abbreviations, acronyms and initials.
