MILTON CANIFF…created in his daily comic strip some of the most infamous Femme Fatales known to newspaper readers all over the world:  The Dragon Lady, Burma, Miss Lace, Copper Calhoun, Miss Mizzou.  GI’s in all of the armed services read about these ladies and the many other colorful characters in his two comic strips:  Terry & The Pirates and Steve Canyon.  The “Book Report” was given by Ye Me President.  The Book was the biography of Milton Caniff entitled “Meanwhile.”  (All 952 pages, single spaced, tiny writing.)  His comic strip was truly one of the most outstanding ever to be read daily by the public.
