DD1 - $800 - POPULAR BOOKS OF 1976 - "In our family, there was no clear line between religion and fly fishing", begins this Norman Maclean novella (Christie lost $1,000.)

Double Jeopardy!

DD2 - $1,200 - DESERT ANIMALS - The desert subspecies of this, ovis canadensis, can use ledges only 2 inches wide as hoof-holds (With a big lead, Mark dropped $1,800 down to $10,000.)
DD3 - $800 - WILL YOU TAKE CARE OF THAT - OK -- as Charlie Brown tells Schroeder about the guy who was asked if he can play the "Hallelujah Chorus", "I guess I can" do this (With just one other top-row clue remaining, Christine doubled to $9,600 vs. $20,400 for Mark.)
