Cryptogram puzzle all crossed up. A new twist.

The Crypto-Cross-Up is a new puzzle by Jim Reneau. It combines the crossword puzzle and the cryptogram puzzle into a single game. Each Crypto-Cross-Up has a name and all of the encrypted words have a connection to the name. The real “cross-up” is that there are two ciphers in the same problem. Horizontal words have one and vertical words have the other. Crossing letters are the same in both ciphers.
