March u-Dur-lng one of New York's periodic newspaper delivery strikes, the late Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia rushed to a radio microphone to perform a singular public service. He pushed the City Council meetings from a scheduled spot on WNYC and read the funnies to the kiddies. Today, as in LaGuardia 's day, the comic pages constitute a daily reading rtabit for an estimated M million adults and kiddies across the country, a habit that has sue cessfully defied the threat movies and television and the occasional cultural outcries of ed ucators and psychiatrists. People who read the funnies every day and few will admit not being addicts cannot recall a time when the nation has been without them, just as veteran readers cannot remember when Orphan Annie last got a new dress or the fact that the Katzen jammer Kids are now old enough to draw social security.

Answers to Crossword Puzzle eas Cultural historians, who judge prehistoric man by the feeble reindeer he drew on the walls of a cave, should find an Interesting judgment in modern man's most popular art form: six decades of color comics, stretching from ihe debut of "The Yellow KidT in 1896 to the latest episodes of Dennis the Menace," "Dick Tra cy" and "Blondie." The comics emerged as the most coveted spoils in the great turn or the century circulation war between Joseph Pulitzer's New York-IForld and William Randolph Hearst's New York Journal. "The Yellow Kid," a saga of slum life begun by Rich ard F. OutcauR in the World, was responsible for the label "yellow journalism" applied to newspap ers or that era. 'Yellow Kid' First The "iellow Kid." a title sup plied by the readers and not the artist, was a hit from the moment he appeared on the World's color pages and soon set a familiar comic pattern by Jump- Creswell Man Killed on Road EUGENE, March t (II Pete Engstrotn, 71, Creswell. was fa tally injured by a car on a high way near Here early today. .

This amoeba-like quality of comics, subdividing Into cells and continuing separate but similar existences under different; names in competing papers, results from the fact that most strips are owned by the newspaper or syn dicate and not the' cartoonist. Rudolph Dirks, who established the Katzenjammer Kids in the Journal in 1(97, hopped to the World in 1913 and continued the same characters under the title "The Captain and the Kids, while H. H.

"They'll Do It Every Time' and a "Modest Maidens" and "Glam or Girls." Strips Survive Their Authors Many strips are "continued, by different writers and, different artists, long after their originators die or move on to other papers and other syndicates to create new comics. The Gumps, Scorchy Smity, Wash Tubbs. Peter Rabbit and Rip Kirby are but a few among many examples. And, in rare Instances, a strip may be permanently retired, like a baseball player s uniform num ber, as a measure of gratitude to the genius of its creater. Such was the case with George Herri man's "Krazy Kat," the first cartoon to win a wide following among Intellectuals, As the comic crate swept the nation and catapaulted newspaper circulation into the hundreds of thousands, top cartoonists began to command fabulous salaries, to hire assistants for research and lettering, to become national celebrities in their own right, al most as well known as the char acters they created. 'Gamps' Opened Galdea Era Sidney Smith, originator of the Gumps, ushered in the golden era in 1922 with a famous million dollar contract that called for $100,000 a year for It years. Be fore his death in 1935. he man aged to up the figure to $150,000 a year. Comic artists found their In spiration In all walks of life and in all strata of our economy: mil lionaires like Jiggs and Daddy Warbucks. down-and-outers like Happy Hooligan and Pete the Tramp, soldiers, office "girls, flighty teen-agers, cowboys, space men, suburban families, adven turers, Canadian Mounties, doctors,- detectives, royalty, and. per haps the most popular over the years, the animal kingdom. The nation showed its apprecia tion in more ways than buying newspapers. Spinach growing Texas erected a monument in honor of spinach-gulping Popeye. Krazy Kat became the theme of serious ballet. "Bringing Up Father" and "L'il Abner" became popular musical plays. Phrases from the comic pages like "hot dog." "23 skidoo," and "baloney" became part of the language. It's Hard Work What does It feef like to be a cartoonist on a top-flight strip? "Mostly," says Milt Caniff. who draws Steve Canyon, "You feel like a puppeteer constantly ma nipulating characters, designing the scenery and the' costumes, getting characters on and off stage in a hurry,' improvising the dialogue, dreaming up a plot that will keep your characters alive and your audience interested. Believe it or not, it's hard work requiring deep -concentra tion and rigid self-discipline. Not only must your characters be real but your backgrounds and props must be true to life. Readers quickly spot inaccuracies and' an achronisms and are quick to write you about them." Caniff goes to great lengths of resesrch to keep the readers hap. py, even to the extent ef taking in a state basketball tournament himself before allowing Steve Canyon to come on the scene. If he is drawing an airplane a ar tillery piece, be visits an Army camp or airfield to getthe de tails right and IlteralfiK "walk through" the scene. Other major cartoonists do the same. Cemlc Characters Change The changing nature of comic characters often belies their origin.. How many readers know that Dixie Dugan began her comie strip life as a chorus girl that Mary Worth sold apples on a street corner, that there once was a Mutt but no Jeff, that A! Ca pone's real life escapades brought on the fictional Dick Tracy, that Snuffy Smith, Popeye, Nancy and others began as relatively minor characters, that the Captain and lama in the Katzenjammer Kids have never been united In bonds of matrimony? .
