...fishermen, and the men are the slippery fish--not so subtle imagery. At one point the lyrics ask if the fisherman has caught her fish. She clasps the fish in her hands tight as he squirms and wiggles. But not every thing is worth struggling for. The fisherwoman, weary from battling the stubborn fish, tosses him back into the sea.

...cartoons, for the most part, are not funny. Some, however, do show a degree of sophistication and promise that has long been lacking. Herrera has contributed two fine small illustrations, one of a pet owner swearing at his parrot, the other of a novice fisherwoman. His others, though not as good, are as well-drawn. R. S.
