The Rochester NY /Democrat and Chronicle/ has been a Gannett paper since
1928, when local boy Frank Gannett added it to the company he had
founded here in 1923. Today they changed their Sunday comics lineup.

New (7):
Baby Blues
Beetle Bailey
Family Circus
Foxtrot
Marmaduke
Non Sequitur
Zits

Continuing (11):
Blondie
Crabgrass
Dennis the Menace
For Better or For Worse
Garfield
Hagar
Jump Start
Peanuts
Pearls Before Swine
Pickles
Ziggy

Out (9):
B.C.
Broomhilda
Doonesbury
Hi and Lois
Prince Valiant
Rex Morgan
Rubes
Shoe
Wizard of Id

Net loss of two. The previous lineup filled all four pages of the
section; now we have three comics pages and a full-page ad.

I have tried to bring scientific thinking to literary
criticism, and there's been very little gratitude for this.
