We're back with a couple more word puzzles -- this time two different "acrostic" grids for you to fit the 34 supply centers into. But first, some unfinished business....
For those of you who took a shot at the word search puzzle in the previous issue of the Zine, you can find the solution here. Many thanks to Dann Fuller ([email protected]) for taking the time to scan it in and send it to us.
Now, here's another supply center word puzzle for your enjoyment. The goal is to fill in the squares below with the names of all 34 supply centers (leave off the period in St. Petersburg). No clues, no numbers, just a lot of empty blanks. Simply print this page and fit the names of the 34 supply centers into the grid. It's not as easy as it sounds, though! There's just one possible solution, but only by a thoroughly enjoyable application of grey matter can you know which supply center goes into which spot! For your convenience, the list of supply centers, separated into groups by their word-length, is given beneath the puzzle grid.

When you've finished that one, here's another. Same idea; perhaps a smidge more difficult. For the one up above, thanks goes to puzzlemaker.com, but the one below is Hand-made. (These are Manus's personal favorites in the family of pencil puzzles.)
Have fun! E-mail a copy of your solutions as soon as you have them, and you'll see your name in electrons in the next issue of the Zine!
