Know Your Anatomy
Solvers may soon discover the theme of this quiz. For each of the 100
clues, which are approximately in a significant order, the numbers of
words and letters in the answer are indicated at the end of the clue,
showing hyphens, but no other punctuation marks. Once again, the
proceeds of the quiz will support the work of Open Arms Malawi, which
runs transition homes in Malawi for infants, most of whom have been
orphaned because of AIDS. There are four prizes, all gift tokens. Three
of them, for £10, £6 and £4, will be awarded to the three most accurate
entries received by 6pm on Saturday 11th April 2015. The fourth prize,
for £5, will be won by an entrant who achieves the average, median
score. Any ties will be resolved by the quality of the tie-breaker clues
submitted by entrants.
