(with acknowledgments to Zander of The Listener)
This month's diagram is numbered normally, but clues to words of six or seven letters are grouped separately in haphazard order. Solvers must determine where these answers belong in the diagram, using the other entries as guides. Words entered in the diagram (called "lights") begin and end at the heavy lines. Answers include two proper names; the first six-letter word (a) is slightly uncommon. Remember that punctuation in the clues may be used deceptivelyAcross
