Answer:  PLAY WELL

( . . . and do good!  Of course, Mom is a fan of Uncle Rave’s!  Uncle Rave is HUGE with the ladies!  LOL!  All old favorite clue words again today.  Three of the jumbles were new, but “laptel” is an old favorite too.  The answer letter layout was a fine jumble, in its own right.  Nothing given away.  The cartoon shows a very convincing young boy’s bedroom.  He’ll have to get well before he can play ball.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
