Smith wins Clue-O

Cory Smith, Ian Moore and the team of Bill and Dave Spencer each punched all 30 controls within the allotted hour and solved the crime at Wednesday's orienteering meet at Russian Jack Springs Park.

Smith won the men's division in 51 minutes, edging Ian Moore by two minutes.

The "Clue-0" meet added an unusual clue-collecting element to the usual control finding. Fifteen of the more than 75 competitors collected the necessary clues to determine Miss Scarlet killed Mr. Boddy in the library with the lead pipe.
