A friend just sent this request. I'm OED-less at the moment and would be
grateful for your comments. Thanks

Howie and I have been discussing the specific origin of the term
"hippie." We know the basic etymology, but we wonder if its first use in
print has been tracked down; does anyone, R. Crumb perhaps, get credit
for creating it?
