Today is

Jeopardy! by Chico Alexander, GSNN

Air time:  Check listings or jeopardy.com
Host: Alex Trebek
David Nikithser (project manager from Hightstown, NJ); $18,799
Dena Martin (underwriter from Pasadena, CA)
Louis Rice (university fundraiser from Decatur, GA)

David bet small to get to podium #1 today. How long can he last? Can Louis raise some funds for himself?

David starts with $200 Martial Arts. Right before we hear a story about the origins of drunken boxing, David takes the lead, $3800 to Dena and Louis' $400 a pop.

David finds the Daily Double under $800 Female Firsts. He bets $1200 on this: in 1995 Roberta Cooper Ramo, an Albuquerque attorney, became the first woman president of this organization. "What's the American Bar Association?" Right for $8000! And he won't stop there, as he leads, $9400 to Louis' $1800. Dena, $200 under, starts Double Jeopardy!...

... with $400 "Par" for the Course. Last two categories in play are Old American History and A Round of Gulf. First Daily Double: Old American History for $2000. Louis bets $6000 on this: Daniel Shays in 1787, like John Brown in 1859, tried to capture one of these storage places. "What's a depot?" Nope, it's an arsenal, leaving him with $7000. Dena gets the last clue under $2000 A Round of Gulf, but first, a correction benefiting Louis, as he gains from his previous Daily Double loss with $19,000. Dena bets half the level on the gulf of Prince Edward Island. "Who is St. Edward?" Nope, St. Lawrence puts Dena at $3200, while Louis and David are in a dead heat with $19,000 and $19,400 respectively.

Final Jeopardy! in "Business Firsts": on July 20, 1903 this company delivered its first product, purchased by a respected Detroiter. Correct question: What is Ford?

Louis hopes that David gets it wrong... He didn't. David wins this one with $26,000, giving him, $44,799 for two days.
