Find the five-letter secret word through the process of elimination and deduction. The answers to the clues below are five-letter words. The number in the parentheses tells you how many of the letters in that word are also in the secret word. Once you determine the letters, anagram them to form the secret word. No letter is repeated in any answer word or in the secret word itself. The first letters of the answers, reading down, spell out a hint. -1. Helps a felon (2) Hues (3) _____ tennis (1) Longed (1) Swindle (0) Contains (3) Ms. Ferber, et al. (3) Parboil (2) -2. Twosomes (3) ____ Allen Poe (2) Animal enclosures (2) Between (0) Prod (2) Domesticates (2) Pass into law (3) Director Polanski (1) -3.
