Change and Slide (Posted on 2019-08-26) Difficulty: 2 of 5
Each of the clues below refers to a 5-letter word. Change one letter in the word clued on the left in each row and slide it to a later position among the four remaining letters to get the word clued on the right side of that row. An example of such a switch is replacing the R in WRATH with a C and sliding it to between the T and the H to make WATCH. Place the original letter in the blank square on the left of that row, and the replacement letter in the blank square on the right.

When completed, the filled-in squares will spell out a 2-word phrase, each word vertical.
