Across and Down answers are clued in pairs, row by row and column by column; these answers are to be entered normally in their given order. In the finished grid each of the 16 shaded boxes will be surrounded by eight letters. If a letter occurs twice among those eight, put that letter in the box; if no letter is doubled, put O in the box. The 16 boxed letters will spell something you might confidently wager. Seven answers are capitalized.

The instructions above are for this month's puzzle only. See a complete introduction to clue-solving.

See last month's Puzzler solution.

Try your hand at previous Puzzlers going back to 1997.
