Lost and Found
In this puzzle each of eleven clue answers loses something upon entry in the grid. Eleven corresponding unclued entries may be found with the help of the shaded diagonal entry, which includes a letter from each and indicates the nature of the lost and found items. The unclued "found" entries may read in any of four directions: left, right, up, or down. Answer lengths are withheld; eight clue answers, including one initialism, are capitalized.
Last month's Puzzler solution is on page 150.
