Today in Comics History, January 19: Happy birthday, Bert LaBrucherie!

Happy birthday to Bert LaBrucherie (born 1905), champion college football coach at UCLA and Caltech, and (surely there's some connection to his success at that here) Wheaties eater! Happy birthday, Bert!

Sports Update: the International Olmpic Committee has now determined that Wheaties are a performance-enhancing substance and have been banned.
