4d. Bonco or Bunko?
29a. Wide-brimmed medieval steel helmets, also called kettle hats (7-2-3) Chapeaux de fer? Too many letters. Even if singular, still does not fit with 18d. (I have luteous).
svp.

Do they allow alt spellings do you think ....!
I don't know shaneystar .. Chambers gives both but indicates under bunco .. see bunko. So your Bunko is probably better! ;0)

Thanks, SS2 and sarumite. Bunc/ko looks like six and �doz - I'm not familiar with this puzzle - do you often got alternative spellings, � la MM?
Aquagility ... I think Shaney's 'Bunko' is preferable .. now that I've looked more closely at Chambers.
Both definitions fit the clue ..so I think they have to allow for alt spellings ..but you would think they would put that if they have sourced the crossword correctly .
Also..I have just looked at my Chambers and am inclined to go with Bunko ...as they just say "See Bunko " when looking at Bunco and it is a definition ..so I think you have go to with a definition rather than a "see" .
Which will teach me NOT to rely on Dictionary .com...!
Shaney .. I agreed that your bunko was preferable owing to Chambers layout, in my post at 2208 !!
best wishes ;0)
