If there are W_1 unchecked
whites (that is, those which enter into the solution of one clue only), and W_2 checked
whites (those which enter into the solution of two clues), then the mean word length will be (W_1+2W_2)/C, where C is the number of clues. […] Acceptable (if unwelcome) difficulties arise when the initial letters of words occupy unchecked squares, because no hint then derives from other clues as to how that word will start. In six consecutive crossword puzzles in The Times, 16 per cent of the words had unchecked initial letters.
