_4 to 60 or more players._

_Indoors; out of doors._

One player is It, or chaser, and changes places with any one whom he
can touch (tag) outside of the safety places called homes. One or more
such places are chosen to which the players may run at any time for
safety. It is advisable to have these homes widely separated, as at
opposite ends of the playground. If the players resort to these homes
too frequently to make a good game, the chaser may call

"Three times three are nine;
Who does not run is mine."

Whereupon every player must run out from his home or goal, or change
places with the tagger.
