Adaptation of “Bird Cage.”
Divide the players into groups of four. Three of each group join hands
in a circle and call themselves “Policemen;” the fourth is called the
“Newsboy.” Without unclasping hands, the Policemen try to catch in
their ring the Newsboy, who may run anywhere in the room. If he is
caught he becomes a Policeman and one of the Policemen takes his place.
