Title	Altogether too close for comfort; December 17, 1968
Description	From the AAEC Editorial Cartoon Collection; Cartoon by Vic Runtz. A man wearing a graduation robe and mortarboard kicks his heels together in excitement. He holds a rolled-up diploma labeled "'68" and the gown is labeled "Electoral college set-up." The man says"Hot ziggedy! Didn't flunk after all!" In the background, a second man wipes sweat from his forehead and looks at a piece of paper labeled "Presidential test." Runtz's signature cat sits at the feet of the second man and says, "How about that?" The cartoon caption reads, "Altogether too close for comfort."
