I played the game in No. MN in the '50s and '60s under the name "Paper,
Stone, and Scissors".

With only three items, every order is logical.

I could not find the game in DARE under "Paper", "Rock", or
"Scissors".  Would that be because the variations were judged not to be
regionally distributed, or because the game was below DARE's radar, or
because it will all be under "Stone"?
