ROUND 1 RESULTS - JANUARY 2002


       Thank you for playing in the Contest Center's Tournament of Riches. There were 89 competing entries for the January 2002 Round 1 puzzle. This makes 14 complete groups of 6 players. These 14 winners will receive $35 each, or they may choose to continue to Round 2 and try for $175. There is also one partial group with 5 players. The winner of that group will receive $30. Total prize money for Round 1 is $520 this month.
       David Smallberg had the top-scoring solution shown below. Since there were 15 groups, you did not need a top score to win. In fact, you could score 6 points lower and still win. The cutoff was at 221 points with 36 on the top row.
Here are the winners and their scores:

     227 David Smallberg      222 Herbert Carl
     226 Robert Lawrence      222 Eula Roshto
     225 Laree Avara	      222 Gary DeMarco
     225 Arlin Anderson       221 Edwin Jensen
     225 David Simmonds       221 David Nagel
     224 Earl W. Long	      221 Betty Battaglia
     223 Ed Fruechtemeyer     221 Faye Kunels
     223 Lorraine Nott

This is David Smallberg's top-scoring 227-point solution:
 
   P   A   S   S       S   I   P   39
 
   E   T       P   S   I       T   38
