Sun., 8/18 Amy Johnson

THEME:   last words of phrases are popular newspaper names
   
GOOD ONES:
I liked all the theme entries especially:    
Newspaper for convicts?   CRIMINAL-RECORD   
Newspapers for hams?   RADIO-DISPATCH
Newspaper for wedding planners?   HITCHING-POST   
Scoot   HIE [liked the contrast between old and new]   
Order to a boxer   SICEM [but it would be a sin to teach a sweet-natured breed to attack]   
Come out of one's shell   HATCH   
   
BTW:   
Tyke   TOT [tot connotes a little child; tyke connotes a bigger child]   
   
Eccentric   NUT-CASE [eccentric connotes a person with odd habits while a nut case suggests one whose grasp of reality is wanting]   
   
OSA and PNEU are foreign words not used in English.  The former is a place name; the latter an abbrev.   
   
ESTO is just plain Spanish.   
   
RATING: ;D ;D ;D   
Three grins = Loved it; Two grins = Enjoyed it; One grin = A bit bland for my taste; One teardrop = Not much fun
