MEDIUM
CANCER (June 21-July 22) You and a friend may find yourselves engaged in a friendly competition that heats up quite dramatically toward the end of the day. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You know full well that you will be unable to outsmart an opponent, so you’re going to have to use other skills to gain the advantage. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You may find yourself playing catch-up throughout much of the day. Don’t let those who are merely hanging around distract you. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Your competence may be questioned by someone who really doesn’t know what you’re capable of — and who considers you a threat. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Now is the time for you to begin checking up on those who have promised to help you out in any way they can. You must start seeing results.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You don’t want to be distracted by things that happen as a matter of course. It’s the unusual that warrants your full attention. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You may experience technical difficulties that slow you down for a time. Check all connections and communications top to bottom.
FOUR RACK TOTAL Make a 2-7-letter word from the letters in each row. Add points of each word using scoring directions at right. Seven-letter words get a 50-point bonus. Blank tiles used as any letter have no point value. Scrabble is a trademark of Hasbro in the U.S. and Canada.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You may have to employ a bit of deception in order to avoid a threat that is coming at you from an unexpected source.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You cannot avoid doing things one at a time. Trying to double up and multitask may only gum up the works.
