                            Note:  Some of these activities must be
                            performed to cause the policeman to
                            arrive.  If they are not done, you can not
                            play out the end of the game.  I do not
                            know which ones they are, except for the
                            one that I had to find to end my own game.

                            Note:  This gives you 345 out of 350
                            points.  You can get 5 more points if you
                            take the bell back after the cat uses it.
                            I presume this accounts for the last 5
                            points.


I would like to acknowledge the help of Bob Anderson and Charles
Freeman in getting through the game.
