105. This journalist was credited with breaking the Iran-Contra affair and revealing the CIA’s plot to assassinate Fidel Castro.

I am almost certain this is JACK ANDERSON.

31. Since opening his first restaurant in Santa Monica in 1979, this celebrity chef has become the dean of California cuisine, which he is also credited with introducing to New York.
WOLFGANG PUCK?

I don't think this is right. I saw celebrity chef and immediately thought of Puck. But, I was living in California when Spago opened, so that's after 1980. So I am wrong.

Yes, all the definites are right, though some names will have to be put into a different form for correct use in the Tangredi.

Of the answers with a question mark, 9 are right and 3 are wrong.

Of the answers with alternates, two contain the correct answer and one does not.

7. I was looking for LUIS ALVAREZ, who also won the Nobel Prize for his work connected with the bubble chamber.
31. I was looking for JONATHAN WAXMAN.
107. Mr. Riah is not a title character. I’ll let this one sit for a while, but I will say that Dickens is not involved at all.
109. I don’t know if Serna ever killed an opponent in the ring, but the boxer I’m looking for is LUPE PINTOR.

Everything else is right, but some of the names will have to be in a somewhat different form for the Tangredi solution.
