The Clue/Cluedo characters were destined to meet at some time or another. Last month, all six of the Clue suspects (American version) decided to do Paris in the Spring. At the same time, each of the six Cluedo suspects (British version) decided to cross the channel and take in Paris. Thus, there were two Col. Mustards, two Mr. Greens, two Miss Scarlets, two Mrs. Peacocks, two Mrs. Whites, and two Prof. Plums in the City of Light!.
Hmm, would they possibly meet? The answer to that is "Yes!" because this is a logic problem and anything goes. Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to determine which American suspect ran into which British suspect, and where they happened to be at the time. Each of the suspects were touring Paris for six days, and each meeting of two different characters took place on a different day - Monday through Saturday.
1. No two characters with the same name ran into one another, nor did any two suspects with the same two names meet (e.g. if the American Miss Scarlet met the Englishman, Prof. Plum, then the American Prof. Plum did not happen to run into the Englishwoman, Miss Scarlet .
2. Mrs. Peacock ran into one of the British suspects at the Louvre the day immediately before the other Mrs. Peacock and one of the Prof. Plums happened to meet.
3. The meeting at the Arc de Triomphe was exactly two days after the meeting at the Eiffel Tower and exactly two days before the meeting at Luxembourg Palace.
4. The Sorbonne University was the meeting place of a Col. Mustard, and one of the female American suspects.
5. Both the Mrs. Whites had the pleasure of meeting a suspect of the opposite gender. One of these meetings took place on Tuesday, and the other was at the Luxembourg Palace, in some order.
6. Mr. Green and the Reverend Green (Cluedo version) had each of their meetings with another suspect on Monday and Saturday, in some order.
7. The six meeting were, in no particular order, the meetings which occurred on Tuesday and Saturday, the meetings involving the two Miss Scarlets, the meeting at the Cathedral of Notre -Dame, and the meeting at the Arc de Triomphe.
8. The only meeting between an American female suspect and an English female suspect occurred on Wednesday.

Recently, Everett came across a photograph snapped many years ago. It was taken on a July 4th during the annual fire works display at the State Fair Grounds, and the picture showed Everett and five of his friends (three of whom are females - Corinna, Dana, and Sue, and two of whom are males - Ralph and Tom) enjoying the show. Even though the snapshot was in black and white, Everett remembered that each wore patriotic colors - red, white, and blue! Two young people wore red shirts, two wore blue shirts, and two wore white shirts. The same was true of their pants (including long pants, shorts, or overalls), and their tennis shoes. Although each wore all three colors in some combination, no two young people wore the exact same combination of color of clothing.
From the clues, can you determine the first name of each child, his or her position in the snapshot, and the clothing each wore? Note: "left" and "right"" are left and right of each young person as they stood watching the fireworks display.
1. Sue, who wore a white shirt, stood to the immediate left of the girl who wore red tennis shoes.
2. Everett, who stood in position D in the photograph, wore the same color of shirt as the color of pants worn by the young person who stood to Corinna's immediate right.
3. The young person who stood in position B wore blue pants, while the girl who stood in position E wore blue tennis shoes.
4. Tom (who stood somewhere to the left of Everett) wore the same color of pants as the color of shoes worn by Everett and the color of shirt worn by Dana (who stood somewhere between Tom and Everett).
5. The two young people who stood in positions A and F both wore the same color of shoes.
6. Both Ralph and the girl who stood in position C wore blue shirts.
7. The two young people who wore red pants (exactly one of which wore either shorts or overalls) stood side by side.
