Eaton\'sdeft mastery of cleanline andhumoris on fulldisplay as this strip presents afunnyscene in which Tizzy learns not to eat while she gets excited. In the days before television, radio was the source of much entertainment. Here, Tizzy munches away as she listens to a soap opera and a boxing match.
