If a crossword clue leads to 5 letter words with A, L and O, the last squares are the place to start.
Those squares spell the -AL adjective ending in LOCAL, TOTAL and ROYAL.
Pencilling in an -AL ending before solving the front of the answer is the quicker route, and the crossing words supply the rest.
