Hi - as usual theses days I have a couple I just can't parse:

54a Information that's included about onion (a vegetable) 5,4. I have "green bean", and can see that "vegetable" -or maybe "a vegetable" is the definition. I can also see "gen" is "information that's included about". Can't see a whiff of onion as it were!

33d Mark, say, needing slight change to enter Univrsity is, I think, "matriculate" but can't even start to parse that one.

Thanks in advance.

I meant "University" of course - the keyboard on this laptop is not the best :-)
re(about) inside gen(information) + bean(onion) both names for the head
I've never seen bean and onion as meaning head. You learn something every day on AB
I'm struggling with 33d too. I can see the mark could be tick but that doesn't help

33d. M(Mark) + Articulate(say) with r & t transposed
M+articulate with letters changed around slightly

Thank you all. I learn something every day!
Can post it off with a clear(ish) conscience now :-)
