Peanuts by Charles Schulz for May 19, 1960
Transcript:
With one foot on third base in the baseball field Charlie Brown says, "I gotta try it!" "If I'm gonna be a hero, I gotta try to steal home!"<br> <br> Charlie Brown dances around in the same spot. He says, "First I'll dance around a little on the baseline to comfuse their pitcher..."<br> <br> Whiles poised to run, Charlie Brown says, "...And then I'll..."<br> <br> Running at full speed Charlie Brown shouts, "TAKE OFF!"<br> <br>
