Attention, Californians! And/or people who are always up for a trip to Los Angeles! The Crosswords LA tournament returns this month, on Saturday the 21st at USC. Here’s the registration page. $50 for advance (by 10/15) registration for one, $75 for a doubles team. Five great competition puzzles, constructed by C.C. Burnikel, Susan Gelfand, Lynn Lempel, Aimee Lucido, Andrea Carla Michaels, Erin Rhode, and Patti Varol. Also? There will be pencils.
