In introducing as a regular feature to its readera. The Gaiette-Times
through the Publishers Autocaster Service of New York City, thia week of
fers a puttie of "no interlocked units."
Thi, puttie, as arranged by Lillian Middleditch, ia an excellent example
of the "no interlocked units" desifrn. It will be observed that the black
spaces are so arranged in the design that no word or group of words is
locked off from the other words or groups throughout the puttie. In other
words, the solver of the puttie may at well start at the lower righ,t hand
corner aa at the upper left-hand corner, or No. 1. An arrangement of this
kind permits a wide approach to the correct solution, aa there are keys all
over the puttie.
Miss Middleditch 's puttie ia filled with simple words, but still containing
enough "twlters" to make ita working very interesting. Work it now
then aave it until next week when the correct answer will be published. If,
you want to arrange a puttie and aend it in to this newspaper, we will be
mighty glad to publish it. Why not try one?
