Which leads to Zeenut 'Shooting', which evidently was a contest like pitching pennies to get closest to the wall. Besides tearing off corners, rolling up the card, waxing it etc. to make a card more likely a winner, it didn't hurt to try to influence the outcome with a few choice words, such as "Good Luck", and perhaps even add a little bonus "kiss me' to keep the other boys cards away, if they wanted to avoid cooties. Evidently Wesley "Shooter" Brown was a champion Zeenut Shooter, but he failed to record his victories for posterity. And I am assuming Eddie Miller was also proclaiming his Shooting skills with the misspelled "I am danger's (dangerous?)"
