This puzzle gives you two grids for the price of one. And two sets of clues to go with them, so you can work both crosswords
at the same time. What’s the catch? Each clue number is followed by two different clues to two different answers. The
puzzle is to figure out which answer goes with which grid. 1-Across has been filled in for you. ANSWERS, PAGE 77
