Leigh Hoopes (Crescent Springs, KY)- Writer
Bruce Richards (Metairie, LA)- Urban planning consultant
FINAL DEFENDING CHAMP: Jared Hall
(Notes: On Fri., Johnny usually starts the introductions w/ "Today's contestants are...", but he used the Mon. line of "Let's meet today's contestants..." tonight; I think he only uses the normal line "Here are today's contestants..." on Wed. Also, the elevator door transition was used on the studio monitors.)
BB:
RENTERS
"ONER"S
WHO'S ON TOUR?
COUNTRIES BY AIRPORTS
JOHN TYLER
AMERICA'S CUP RACING (CC clues from the S.F. Bay)
In six clues, Jared picks the DD on the $800 box under Countries by Airports w/ $400, but Bruce has the negative version of his score; Leigh has a $200 lead. To put Jared at $1,400:
Puerto Princesa & Ninoy Aquino International
"What is The Philippines?"...right. At the TO, he's in LGT w/ $4,800, now $3K over Bruce.
SOLE ATTEMPTED TS: $400 (Countries by Airports)
SOLE UNATTEMPTED TS: $800 (John Tyler)
TOTAL LT: $1,200
Current Scores:
Jared: $9,200/Bruce: $4,800/Leigh: $2,200
Last Regulation DJ! Topics of Season:
WRITERS IN WARTIME
QUOTED IN BARTLETT'S
FASHION
FANTASTIC 4
JAPANESE HISTORY
SAME FIRST & LAST LETTER
Leigh's making a charge w/ $5,800 just as she walks to a DD in the middle of Fashion; she's $1K behind Bruce for 2nd place & $5K out of 1st. She attempts to add $3K to her bank once seeing & hearing this answer:
This fashion weekly began publishing in 1867; it got the double "A" in 1929.
"What is Bazaar...Harper's Bazaar?"...good enough for $8,800! And the last adult one of this season too belongs to her in the center of Japanese History, as well as the lead at $16K; Jared's just trailing her by $1,600 & Bruce has half his total. $2K's the bet by Leigh this time:
In 1914, Japan joined the Allies & quickly seized this European power's islands in the Pacific.
"What is Germany?"...good enough guess!
ATTEMPTED LT: $3,600
UNATTEMPTED LT: $2K
