A n s w e r s t o l a s t w e e k 's J a c k p o t sweeping where practical, not something CLUES ACROSS: 1. MAP not man. "Always to MAP his used in a "general" sense. 4. CLASS not glass. The fact that the expedition effectively," is very apt so that others can follow where he has travelled. "producer would probably be pleased with But an "explorer" can never be certain of his ou tp u t," favors being " noted for the unknown, so as "always to" be sure his CLASS" (defined as: "very good; ele gant"). There's no certainty in the clue team is "effectively manned." 6. GROWLING not prowling. Truer about the quality control of "his glass out of "large GROWLING animals," which put." 5. INSURED not injured. "Not could probably be heard by the "group of hunters nearby." Though prowling, there's injured" after being "involved in" a "bad no certainty that the "large animals" can be accident" would "be very important to" anyone, surely. While he should have been seen (e.g. in jungle growth). 7. BOB not box. "in boxing par lance," it would be the "sharp fighter's" ability "to BOB so evasively," but "to box" defensively. 9. POT not rot "Anything of yours of special interest," favors the possibility INSURED, the outcome "might be very important" depending on whether or not he's held responsible. 7. BOY not buy. "Her small BOY," links directly with, "mother." Also the clue phrase, "during brief shopping spree," is superfluous for, buy (i.e. purchase). 8. BLAND not blank. T ruer o f "BLAND (defined as: `pleasantly smooth in manner') looks" which can reflect "true feelings," but will "frequently mask" them on other occasions. "Blank (defined as: `without interest or expression') looks" are always "masks." 10. TIME not tide. There's no refer ence in the clue to any specific type of "invasion" (e.g. armed forces by land or by sea). The right TIME, therefore, makes an all-inclusive answer taking into consid eration "the tide" if the "huge invasion" is by sea. 13. SMOKERS not stokers. SMOK ERS (e.g. cigarette, pipe, etc.) makes a clear-cut answer. The clean, mechanical and electrical operation of most furnaces tended by stokers today hardly represent a 0 > < -- health hazard in the sense of the clue. 15. BANTER not barter. The clue phrase, "likely to be phony," favors BAN a TER (defined as: "tease in a playful, goodnatured way"). Being "skilled at bartering, the "demeanor," or presentation, of such 7 * individuals, is generally linked to their u 3. success. 19. HANDY not hardy. "All-around *-- i experience in Boy Scouts" leading to the c . "average youngster" being "generally vT HANDY," yes, which could include his having a hardy physique. * 1 I i 411 ENTRIES of it "going to POT' (defined as: "deterio rating"). Not everything can roL 18. BAD not had. The clue implies that the results of his "betting" have already been "discouraging" and any more could prove "particularly" so, pointing to BAD as being more to the poinL Though he had a "run of luck," was it BAD or good? 23. WAIST not w rist 'Too tight at" the WAIST, yes. But `It would be surpris ing if ' the "recipient said" said the "wrist is too tight" when, for example, it was a sleeveless "sweater" that was "knitted." Thus, wrist, needs to be better qualified. 25. RAGE not rags. More apt of "finding" a "close friend truly in" a RAGE "In rag?" is too vague, as why should the "car ing individual be upset' if, for example, he too is "in rags?' 26. TALK not walk. The idea of "rea soning with" an "obstinate child" links directly with having to TALK to him in so doing. In place of walking, possibly he is small enough to be wheeled around in a vehicle (e.g. a cart). CLUES DOWN: 3. GROOM not broom. "Keeping a particular area clean " favors "an efficient GROOM" (defined as: "a man or boy whose work is tending, feeding and curry ing horses"). A broom is essentially for C O R R E C TIO N The Brick flyer that was distribut ed Friday, July 5 incorrectly stated on the back page "Offer in effect while quantities last through July 23,1991".
