added quote from GK Chesterton about the fictional game "Gype"

Added DiffLines:


->...it was [Creator/HGWells and I] who invented the well-known and widespread national game of Gype. All sorts of variations and complications were invented in connection with Gype. There was Land Gype and Water Gype. I myself cut out and coloured pieces of cardboard of mysterious and significant shapes, the instruments of Table Gype; a game for the little ones. It was even duly settled what disease threatened the over-assiduous player; he tended to suffer from Gype's Ear. My friends and I introduced allusions to the fashionable sport in our articles; Bentley successfully passed one through the Daily News and I through some other paper. Everything was in order and going forward; except the game itself, which has not yet been invented.

The girls' score is now defending cyclists race past the square-root tackling dummies and try to get into scoring position. If they manage to return the pom-pom into one of pi, the scoring locations, they will be awarded a chance to chase the jumbo riding ball past the midfield skiing defender, while the boys still have other team tries to hit as many tennis balls as they can using golf clubs. I don't know why this guy has a crudely-drawn picture canoe paddle.''
