Jumble Spoiler – 03/14/13

Anna Pavlova & Vaslav Nijinsky in Le Pavillon d’Armide (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

Visual Description:  Nijinsky nagging negatively.

NADTS  =  STAND,  TAIRO  =  RATIO,  RUHOYL  =  HOURLY,  CETEND  =  DECENT   —   Giving us:  STNRIOHOEET

Clue/Question:  The strict ballet instructor kept his students . . .

Answer:  ON THEIR TOES

(I like the classical angle, that the multi-talented Mr. Knurek has taken the Jumble!  Maybe we’ll see some opera, some philharmonic and some art museums in the near future.  No new clue words, today.  Nothing too difficult.  A nice answer letter layout, though.  But, the clue/question was pretty leading.  And, Jeff’s cartoon gave us a pretty good bonus clue.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
