Them Gals Names on TIL Postn1Qrk
LUuz I'LL Daisy Mae Had t See

It's getting 50 that a man can't
even do something for his country
without his girl getting jealous.
Take the case Of Lil Abner
Sokum. You know him Of course.
And his girl Daisy Mae, too. They
both appear In the Al cspp comic
In The Tacoma Times.
Not long ago the editors of The
Trident. the campus magazine Of
the United States Naval Academy.
wrote 10 Abner asking for his PIC
ture to publish.
OF course NANNY Yokum's boy
had a few snapshots taken here
and there. And in one or two OF
them, he was pretty slicked up,
with shoes on and everything But
he didn't think even these were
good enough to put himself in the
best possible light in the eyes of
the midshipmen. For a portrait in
their magazine, Abner said:
All wanted L look nah fan
ciest."
So, arrayed in just that, COM
plete with sporty band on his
straw hat and a brand-new tie, he
set off from Dogpatch one after
noon 20 have his picture taken py
a real professor of photography,
Glenn Pooney, over Polecat Bend
way. He was so excited. he didn't
realize that he still had the letter
from the Navy boys in his hand.
And didn't realize, either. that he'd
dropped it in the road. But he had.
And Daisy Mae. who happened to
see him moseying along. all diked
out like he was going sparkling
picked up the envelope.
All she needed was one look at
the names on the postmark to tell
her that her suspicious were right.
Abner got little further. And the
Naval Academy never got its pic
ture.
But it did get a picture. Abner
told AL Capp. who draws him,
about the unhappy incident. And
Al. to help both him and the mid
dies out, sent them the sketch
above. in the hope of undoing the
damage wrought by Daisy Macs
