" (CNN) Alan Young, who played the hapless yet protective
owner of a talking horse on the popular television comedy
'Mister Ed,' has died at age 96, according to officials at the
Motion Picture & Television Home in Woodland Hills, California.
He died Thursday of natural causes with his children at his side,
the organization said.
Young also was a well-received voice actor, with appearances
as Scrooge McDuck in many Disney productions . . . ."

From today's Sunday comics:
Exhibit C —

Literary Exercise:
Continuing the Smith student's
Psychonauts theme,
compare and contrast
two novels dealing with
similar topics:
A Wrinkle in Time,
by the Christian author
Madeleine L'Engle,
and
Psychoshop,
by the secular authors
Alfred Bester and
Roger Zelazny.
Presumably the Princeton student
would prefer the Christian fantasy,
the Smith student the secular.
Those who prefer reality to fantasy —
not as numerous as one might think —
may examine what both 4×4 arrays
illustrated above have in common:
their structure.
Both Princeton and Smith might benefit
from an application of Plato's dictum:
From Stephen King's Dreamcatcher:
From Alfred Bester's The Demolished Man:
