SALOME’S STARS HOROSCOPE
ARIES (March 21 to April 19) A
strong social whirl brings a new
round of good times to fun-loving
Rams and Ewes. Cupid also is busy
aiming arrows at single Lambs hop-
ing for a heart-to-heart encounter.
AMBER WAVES
TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) A
romantic incident could take a more
serious turn if the Divine Bovine
considers meeting Cupid’s challenge.
Meanwhile, a professional opportu-
nity also is about to turn up.
by Dave T. Phipps
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A
bit of hardheaded realism could
be just what the Twins need at this
emotionally challenged time. Face
the facts as they are, not as you want
them to be. Good luck.

ANSWERS
1. Singer-songwriter
Lionel Richie once
said that he didn’t
have time to get the
lyrics translated, so he
made up the sounds
in the song, like “Jam-
bo jumbo.”
2. Elvis Presley, in
1960, followed by Ral
Donner, Johnny Bur-
nett and Bryan Ferry.
3. Th e Bobby Fuller
Four, in 1965. Song-
writer Fuller later used
the song’s melody for
a shoe store ad.
4. Bad Company, in
1974. Rather than
standard guitar
tuning, this song uses
Open C tuning, C-C-
G-C-E-C.
5. “It’s Getting Better,”
by Mama Cass Elliot
in 1969. With far too
many songs describ-
ing the sadness of
broken hearts and
love gone wrong,
this refreshing song
describes what is right
about an easy love that
takes its time to grow.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Many

SUPER CROSSWORD: CRUCIAL CATEGORY
