The wordplay may have an extra letter/ be missing one letter/or be normal:
Help with parsing please:
11d Crowd carrying organ pushes into service PRESSGANGS
6d Take in projections over by a long way EVER SO
15a "Proper drink?" Green lake gathering accepted 250 REAL ALE
42a Briefly seek division in mass movement of Jews CHASSIDISM

11 D. Press is crowd, it has Sang (a Chinese organ) inside. The first G is one of the 10 mentioned in the preamble. Pressgangs, pushes into service.

42 Also involves the 10 (I think!).

[ProfessorMaisie]

6d 'take' = R(ecipe) inside 'SEE ('Take in') [reversed] + O(ver)
15a REALA is the feminine of 'realo' (a male member of the German Green party) with L(ake) inside and E (=250, numeral) on the end.
I think 42a is 'briefly seek' = CHAS(e) + SID(e) = 'division' + I(n) + M(ass) but if 'briefly' is doing double-duty it's a bad clue (I think ID - 'division of intellect' might be involved) either way, an 's' is left out of wordplay.

[ProfessorMaisie]

sorry - 6 is E[a]VES for 'projections' reversed with R ('take') inside - sorry, I should have checked - my memory is very poor!

[ProfessorMaisie]

...and it's not 'reversed', of course, sorry again!

[ProfessorMaisie]

...3rd time, sorry - it is REAL(o) for the German 'green' - the 'o' is extra and 'A(ccepted)' gives the A.

Many thanks ProfessorMaisie and Neveracrossword

I've said it before but it happens every time. These threads never appear to me until a day later. I searched on Saturday evening and nothing. And on Sunday, it appears. Why am I 24 hours behind? (I live in England.)
