Group is in a circle, facing in, with hands behind their backs, eyes closed. Leader walks quietly around circle and places the rolled up newspaper secretly in the hands of one of the group. The player starts hitting the player on his right with the swatter. He continues swatting while the victim runs around the outside of the circle and back to his place in the ring. Player with swatter now goes around the circle and hands swatter to another player. A knotted neckerchief can be used instead of a newspaper.
