"QuesMATE seems to ap- peal to people who can "One of the characteris. tics of QuesMATE is that it stimulates a lot of con- versation," says Moore. "So if there's any key to its success it's in the quality of the questions the play- ers are asked to deal with." Not all the questions re- late directly to mates' feelings towards each other. Some are personal. For example - Which parent has the most influence in your life? (A) your mother; (B) yourfather; (C) equal. Ron Cooper, soccer. Ad- ministrator of the clinics is Wally Delaney. assistant directpr of athletics at the University of Waterloo. It isn't necessary to go through the full 150 ques- tion cards, of course. In fact, it's not unusual for the game to stimulate so much conversation the play- ers only deal with half a dozen questions in a two hour span. 'It‘s a little bit like the "Newlywed Game" on television, though Moore says he has never watched the program. He and his wife and friends evolved QuesMATE over the past several years, simply be- cause they found it lots of fun to play. The question cards are put into the centre of a table and one member of the group picks one and reads it out loud. Then the male mem- bers of the group decide how they would answer it and the females try to guess how they think their hus- bands are going to answer. or vice versa. They indicate their choices: A, B or C. If husband and wife agree. the couple gets one point. The couple that gets the most points wins. a party game, for groups of say four or five couples at a time. It consists of 150 cards bearing questions such as those listed above. Each card has a question and three possible answers --A, B and C. For example, under the "second thoughts about your marriage" ques- tion the answers are: A--- never; B-seldom; C-oc- casionally. The unit will operate from 9:30 to 3 p.m. Cars will be directed off the mad by a regional police officer for the two to three minute test, Tests are being conducted not only for the sake of clean air but in the interest of more efficient and economi- cal vehicle operation ing or malfunctioning pol- lution control devices. He thinks the games busi- ness has a great future be- cause inflation and gasoline shortages are going to mean people stay home more in the evenings. "Well, certainly many management skills are being taught through the playing of games," he says. "I've not showed QuesMATE to any psychologist, but I suspect something like it may prove useful in teach- ing about male-female re- lationships. ,, He says he has discussed it with members of UW's department of recreation and they were very interest- based on a 'women's lib' theme that could be played on a tic-tac-toe board," he speculates. property, weshould increase their awareness and ap- preciation of the qualities that make an Olympic new former.

"In fact, I've studied them for years. I've learn- ed that to be popular a game must have certain qualities. It must be simple. There has to be an element of luck in it, and also an element of skill.
