Can you tell me the answers of these please - you may cheat.
3 down: Large tree of the East Indies which yields a hard, resinous wood (4) _ E _ K
18 across: In certain card games, a set of cards laid down in order to score points (4) _ E _ D
8 across: USSR woman gymnast who won the 1976 Olympic floor and vault gold medals (5,3). _ E _ L _ _ _ M
For this last one I've found NELLIE KIM from google and all the references spell her name with 6 letters. I've decided to put NELLY KIM but I'm not sure this is right. Can anyone confirm her name is also NELLY KIM?

3 down - TEAK?
I don't know a great deal about trees (I thought you did Kirk!?) but I seem to remember it being a hardwood and it was the first that came to me that fits the gaps.

Re: Crossword clue help
Thanks, Michael. I hadn't read your post. Neither had I read the last bit of Kirk's post. I'd only read the clues. Maybe I should read more thoroughly before replying.Michael Wallace wrote:):<Howard Somerset wrote:I'm pretty certain the last one is NELLY KIM, Kirk.
