Clements & Popik in N.Y. Times

[Fred Shapiro]

Tomorrow's William Safire "On Language" column in the New York Times
Magazine treats the term "Charley Horse."  Sam Clements and Barry Popik
are mentioned, Sam for finding an Aug. 29, 1886 usage in the Atlanta
Constitution and Barry for finding a usage in Sporting Life a month later.
Congratulations to Sam and Barry.
