Instead of indicating where entries begin and end, the heavy bars in this
puzzle divide the diagram into four rows and four columns of four sections
each. Clue answers should be entered without regard to the heavy bars, but
otherwise normally. When all answers have been entered, the four sections
in each row will be found to have one letter in common, as will the four
sections in each column. When these letters have been placed on the
corresponding blanks above the columns and beside the rows, they will
describe how everything is connected. Answers include four proper nouns. See solution to last month's Puzzler. Across 1. Clever little mammal that eats insects by day (6) 5.
