Each answer word in this crossword variation has two clues leading to it, using different meanings of the word. The
clues are separated into Across and Down, but are otherwise ordered randomly.
When you find two Across clues or two Down clues that seem to have the same answer, add up their clue numbers
to determine the place in the grid at which the answer should be entered. For example, if the clue for 1-Across were
“Metallic element” and the clue for 17-Across read “Starring role,” the answer would be “lead,” which would go in
18-Across (1 + 17). Note: Tags such as “Hyph.” and “2 wds.” have been omitted. ANSWER, PAGE 701ǣǔȨȰ(ǝǗȲǠȨǙ
