Moormanism #7, 02/02/72, from McLeansboro Times Leader; McLeansboro, Illinois

MOORMANISM #7, 2-3-72
In life I wanted to be a professional ball player. Circumstances and conditions wouldn’t permit. I also tried boxing and wasn’t rugged enough. In sports I was a failure, yet I think I could have been a champion had I become a perfume salesman. Ira E. Moorman.
Poking fun at his self, Hank was not beneath this, even though he was acutely aware of people poking fun at him. I could just see him writing this and then blowing his nose, as only Hank could, right there on the floor or in a bucket.
