Crossword Challenge Puzzle 1932 Clues and Answers
Puzzle 1932 of Crossword Challenge gives you 31 clues on a 8×10 board. Each one is listed below with a hint first and the answer second.
Short answers dominate here: 12 of 31 fit in one or two squares. 4 clues are pictures, and 3 of those ask you to fill the gaps in a word printed on the image; 4 clues want only the initials of the clue words; 2 want just the first letter of a single word; 6 clues are fill-ins, and 6 of them need only the missing letters. The longest answer runs 9 letters and belongs to “News gatherers”.
Here is the shortcut for Puzzle 1932: read the first letters of the top-row answers and you get the answer to “More or less”. Read the first letters down the left edge and you get the answer to “News gatherers”. One of those two words unlocks the first letter of 15 others.
