Players form a large circle and march around to the right as the music plays. When the music stops, the leader blows a whistle two, three, or four times. If he blows the whistle four times, players must immediately form circles of four members each. If he blows the whistle three times, each circle must have three players, etc. Any player unable to join an appropriate circle is eliminated. The game is continued until only one set of winners remains in the game.
