This puzzle turns in two directions. The spiral’s Inward clues yield a sequence of words to be entered counterclockwise
in the spaces from 1 to 100. The Outward clues yield a different set of words to be entered clockwise from 100 to 1. Keep
track of which way you’re going, and have many happy returns. ANSWER, PAGE 73
