Power of the Press

The Frank W. Lewis crossword, restored

July 21/28 Frank W. Lewis gridWell, okay, maybe it’s the power of readers to direct the press. Responding to an outpouring of letters, the editors of the Nation have restored the Frank W. Lewis cryptic crossword to its every-issue basis. The announcement appears in the current (July 21/28) number. “A wonderful instance of grassroots democracy” the squib reads. I’m proud to have been a voice in that movement.

For fun, here are three more "Frank W. Lewis words," answers I have noted down from his puzzles over the years. Pass your cursor over the entry for a brief definition. Clicking will get you to an on-line dictionary.
