Harris and Helms crossword clue
13 Down · WSJ Crossword, July 1, 2026 · 3 letters
Explanation
The answer to “Harris and Helms” is EDS. It appears as 13 Down in the Wall Street Journal crossword of July 1, 2026, a Wednesday puzzle titled “Perfunctory Performance” by Lynn Lempel, and it fills 3 squares running top to bottom from row 1, column 15 of the 15×15 grid.
A plural clue takes a plural answer, which is why the entry ends in S. The entry begins with E and ends with S, and contains 1 vowel and 2 consonants. If you are working from the crossings, two or three confirmed letters from the Across entries should be enough to lock it in. Wednesday puzzles sit mid-week on the difficulty curve, so expect the rest of this grid to be pitched at the same level.
