This unique course consists of 4 books -

1. How to tackle tough tie-breakers

2. Winning Secrets from the master-puzzler

3. How to use high score words effectively, and

4. How to get higher scores by diagram analysis. 

You will discover techniques and secrets to win contests. Based on the 60 years wide contest experience of William Sunners. 

These books aim to help the contest-conscious public with the best reference and how-to books possible. The former leaders in this
specialized field of skillful endeavor have passed away or retired.
Such stalwarts as Jules Leopold, Keith S. Sutton, Stephen Marshall,
Edward L. Lee, Jay Williams, and several others are no longer
active. Even that octogenarian, William Sunners, can be coaxed to
emerge from perpetual hibernation to write a book or course if
properly compensated. That is why this series of books, "SOLVING
WORD-BUILDING TIE-BREAKERS," was generated to assist and encourage frustrated entrants to achieve higher scores at the finish of the contest.

Within this book, and throughout this course, you will read several
statements and suggestions that appear contradictory to anything
published before about AHA tie-breakers. For example, one word-building writer recently stated positively that the dictionary entry, WS, was valid for any final tie-breaker of an AHA tie-breaker. Bill Sunners claims loudly that this is untrue. A careful examination of seven printings of the official dictionary proves him right. WS was inserted into the dictionary after 1978. It is not printed flush left.

Within this unique volume, and in this up-to-date Step-By-Step Course, you will discover techniques and approaches that appear to have escaped the attention of other writers. Read them thoughtfully, and heed Mr. Sunners' advice carefully. It (this book) is based on his sixty years of wide and varied contest experience.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
William Sunners is probably the oldest and best-informed contest
authority today. He has been competing for prizes or writing about
them for more than 65 years, having begun in high school. Then, he
competed for one-dollar prizes offered by a morning newspaper, the
New York American. It was in the middle of the 1930's, during the
Great Depression, that he won the largest number of prizes ranging
from a ten-cent cancelled stamp for an advertising slogan to winning
an automobile in two successive years. His entries were written in
pleasing rhyme. He won a third car in 1948 with a prose statement.
Sunners has been featured in newspapers and magazines, appearing on
various television programs beginning in 1959 with Betty Furness, long associated with NEC, in the old Mosque Theatre in Newark, NJ.

In 1949, he wrote a best-selling book, "How To Win Prize Contests" that went into five editions and sold over 100,000 in eight years. Since then, he has produced more than twenty books about puzzles and contests. His first work, written in 1947, "American Slogans," was slanted to the advertising profession, sold over 5,000 copies in six months. His latest book, "How To Make And Sell Original Crosswords," is outselling three competing volumes.

Bill Sunners was the first human being anywhere to write and distribute a course on constructing crossword puzzles, 1934-36. Since then, he has been followed by a dozen emulators. New York Magazine devoted three pages for a feature article about him and his contest achievements in its March 26, 1979 issue.

"Considering our present knowledge, it is wise to be open-minded always. Don't become complacent by closing your doors to new progressive ideas. Everything in life can become a source of joy, beauty and faith if you do not shut your eyes, deny, despise, or run away from it."

- Van Gogh
