On-Air Challenge: Every answer consists of two words that are opposites. You are given rhymes for the words, and you give the opposites.

Answer: The trees are "elm," "hickory," "lemon," and "teak," with the letter P left over.
Winner: Tim Moon from Bethany, Ill.
Next Week's Challenge:The answer is a two-word name. Inside this name are the consecutive letters I-L-E-H. Remove these four letters, and the remaining letters in order will name something commonly found inside the original thing with the two-word name. What is it?
