11AC: "Girl's strong desire to become a historian" (sic). I have S*L*U*T (7) 13AC: Put more into very nerdy type. I have S*D*O. (5)
This supposes that 7 Down is "Hound" (as in "Baskerville"). ANY suggestions most welcomed ... as they are last in the grid ... not that I will enter a crossword that I have not completed myself ... :)) Many thanks in advance
