FROG, MEXICO'S CARD GAME
Is Something Like Skat and Is Better
Than Bridge.
New York SUM-

Frog is the aristocratic card game Of
Mexico. While conquian is consid-
cred the national game of that coun-
try, it bears about the same relation
! to frog that euchre does to bridge in
the United States. Frog requires a
high order of intelligence to play it
well, and those who have had exDeri-
ence with it like it as we'll, if not bet
ter. than bridge.
1t is uD to modern standards in the
matter of elasticity and variety, with
the element of bidding and the result
depends on the players own judg-
ment untrammeled by the luck of
partners hand, unfettered by the fear
of his criticism at the end In these
respects frog is very much like skat
and it has been suggested that the idea
of frog is evidently borrowed from
skat. Even the name frog NAV be
a corruption of "frage," which was
one of the varieties of skat in the early
days.
Frog is PLAYED with a pack of thir-
ty-six cards, all below the six being
thrown out. These cards rank A, 10
K, Q, ], 8, s, Z, s. and the five honors
have the same pin value that they
have in skat-the ace being worth II,
the ten 10, king 4, queen 3 and jack 2
InlS gives lZU points as the total pip
value of the four suits and the object
Of the game is to get the ma jority of
these 120 points-that Is, 81 or more
in the tricks taken in during the
course of play. Tricks as such are of
no value, only. the points they contain
being counted. so that a player Win
ing a trick with two aces and a ten in
1t would get more for his one card
than a player who won four or five
tricks with nothing in them but kings
and Jacks and spots.
There are three active players. but
four or five may make up the table
When four play the dealer takes no
cards. When five play the dealer gives
cards to the two on his left and the
one on his right.
1t does not matter who deels first,
providing some record is kept so that
each of the players shall have the deal
an equal number of times. When il
comes to the turn of the one who dealt
