Stanton, MINI.
The following is my solution Of your ''Puz-
zle in Craps: If Harry wins two games while
Billy wins one, then, in proportion, Harry
would have four games while Billy
two had the game proceeded. and then Harry
would claim four-sevenths of the purse and
Billy two-sevenths, and the remaining onesev-
enth would be split between them. Foursev-
enths of 4s equals q 81, two:sevenths Of 4s
equals Is OF, one-scventh of 4S equals 81.
one-half Of s CT equals 3 81. Then q 81
plus 8 81 equals 80 81, and IS 81 plus 8 81
equals II II, and, cent could not he
divided, Harry could claim the odd cent
he had the greater portion; thus Harry should
receive 81 cents and Billy should receive II
cents. Reuben Harlln,

think that Harry's chances Of winning
to Billy's 2 is to 1, and therefore Harry
should get 80 cents and Billy 16. If Harry
has two games and Billy one. there would
only remain four games to be played. Harry
could lose two out of the four and win. while
Billy could only lose one. R. G. Barnes.
