As it happens, I 'solved' the clue in reverse...ie I got all nine crossing clues, which meant the answer could scarcely be anything else! Only then did I work out the reason. Cheers

I suppose it helps if you do the crossword but it's still a good bit of work.
As I said , I had read the Katzenjammer Kids when I was (very) young. My family had wealthy relatives in the USA during the war who would send us parcels of clothes and stuff, including the "funnies" along with the US newspapers. I read them avidly, assuming I was the only boy in Britain who knew of them.
Memories!!!!
