BEATRICE, Neb - In consecutive order, two southeast Nebraska residents took home cash.

The Beatrice radio station of 94.7 FM/1450 AM KWBE had been putting on their summer long "Crack the Code" promotion, as the station popped up at various locations around the area allowing people to punch four numbers into a safe, with the help of periodical clues. 

On Wednesday evening, Wymore native Keith Maguire punched in the code 8931 to take home $1,000 in cash as well as a $1,000 gift card to Scheer Quality Furniture. 

On the next guess, Beatrice's Lenise Pinkerton correctly guessed 4716 for $500 cash.
