Historical Debunking Hits' As Dav’y Crockett By Margaret Latrobe The debunking of historical characters who had basked in sweet and scholarly wordage of textbooks began on a big scale, as I recall, about 1930. Then a biographery with a “well-devel-

oped sense of double entry bookkeeping" let slip that George Washington did not make matchsticks of any cherry tree. From then on—M’ell it was a mistake to die, let me tell you. Particularly if you had been written up in the school books as a high type fellow. Debunking became the literary fashion. The modem instrument of torture is, as you know, a certain magazine whose publishers uppishly deny their victims the undertaker and a decent burial. They go after the living, who— fortuniately for them-can sue in cases of alleged variation from fact. In rismembering reputations this sheet is content with

Now you take D^vey Crockett—the revived spectre from our glorious and uncomfortable past, idol of kiddies and bankruptor of parents. Latest reports make out that Disneys darling was something of a seven-dollar bill, a curmudgeon and shiftless panderer who only went b’ar hunting when the old bogey, Work, shadowed the Tennessee horizon And not
