Lines: 15 The question about the first black major league baseball player is baiting you to say "Jackie Robinson". In fact, blacks were playing major league ball until excluded sometime in the 1880's or 1890's, so their answer of Moses Fleetwood Walker might well be right -- check out the Baseball Encyclopedia to be sure. (I remember the name only because I just saw that question last night!) Another error: (I think it's in the Baby Boomer set) "Who is Augie Doggie's daddy?" Their answer: "Huckleberry Hound" Real answer: "Doggie Daddy" (Their cartoon was just one segment of The Huckleberry Hound Show. Besides, H.H. was a light blue, and A.D. & his D.D. were purple.)
