[Ads-l] brain-housing group

[Jonathan Lighter]

Antedatings:

1966 _Bomb_ (Virginia MIlitary Institute) 104: "Bowling Ball," as Bill was
aptly called his Rat year, from observing his brain-housing group.

1970 _The Times_ (Hammond, Ind.) (May 27) 15A: I surely hope that the
people in the county clerk's office get their brain housing groups together
and insure that this does not happen again in November.  ROLAND E.
CAMP...U.S. Navy.

1972 _Mother_ (Cape Cod Community College)  (Nov. 2) 4:  Poetry is being
drunk in the gutter at four A.M. . . It is waking up in jail with John
Henry playing rail driving games in your brain housing group.
