One from the archives. Please excuse me if I just posted this. rolleyes

The following clues lead to six and five letter answers respectively. The answer to the second clue is the first clue answer minus one letter with no anagramming necessary. Each letter of the alphabet is represented only once with the exception of "Q". Identify the two words and the letter of the alphabet that applies.

Example: floor covering > insertion point mark = carpet > caret (P)

-1. bends > escapes
-2. comrade > sauteed
-3. creed > contradict
-4. crystalline mineral > unit of measure
-5. digit > more delicate
-6. firm > hackneyed
-7. flip > still
-8. Green Bay athlete > car model
-9. guiding light > hog product
-10. hidden > hiding place
-11. insult > pastel
-12. intellect > type
-13. jeopardy > fury
-14. livestock area > marine organism
-15. Looking Glass says she's a fine girl > identifying mark
-16. rein > modify
-17. slang > window gas
-18. specialist > put forth
-19. squabble > hog rider
-20. stake > peak of a building side wall
-21. throaty > charger
-22. veer > minister
-23. wake up > got up
-24. watering hole > beauty shop
-25. yell > lower
