>From the comic strip "Freckles and his Friends" 11/23/1944, Merrill
Blosser, NEA Service.
Panel 1:
Mr. Wilson (principal?) "-- And if this keeps up, the English Language
will eventually lose its identity! -- For instance, studying is not
"worming." High school is NOT a "brain factory." A diploma is NOT a
"parole."
Freckles: "Yes, Sir!"
Panel 2
Secretary (answering phone): "Mr. Wilson's office!"
Mr. Wilson (still talking to Freckles): "If this strange language is
continued, it may even contaminate the FACULTY!"
Panel 3
Secretary (to Mr. Wilson): "Somebody wants to talk to you on the
Ameche!"
Mr. Wilson's pince nez glasses pop off his face in astonishment!
