Title	Does anybody have a compass?; August 6, 1968
Description	From the AAEC Editorial Cartoon Collection. Cartoon by Eldon Pletcher. Five tall trees are each marked with a letter and together they spell, "Polls." Arrows on the trees are pointing in different directions; some are labeled, "Nixon would run extremely close in a race involving Humphrey and Wallace...Rocky moves into an open lead over Humphrey and McCarthy...Wallace impact...Nixon...Reagan...Rocky...Humphrey...McCarthy." A man in a tweed suit and bowler hat stands amid the trees smoking a cigar. He is labeled "68 politics" and appears confused. He says, "Does anybody have a compass?"
