. . . and "Mike Mulligan & His Steam Shovel" (both children's picture books by Virginia Burton), Bugs Bunny finds his town hole threatened by a construction foreman. After four minutes of back and forth (in which Bugs generally prevails), an amusing sequence begins with Warner Bros.' favorite rabbit getting "Girdered." This leads to the dazed hare flirting with disaster high above the city, not unlike the BABY'S DAY OUT film and story. When a bucket of rain water saves the day, Bugs uses a red hot bolt to combine THE PRICE IS RIGHT's "Plinko Game" with a Rube Goldberg-like mechanical sequence to gain the upper hand in his fight to preserve his home. In nearly every American city today you can find evidence is the older parts of town of similar victories won by the "little guy" against the building sprawl of Big Interests. There are no such zoning anomalies in the newer sections of the city, ever since the Greedy Fat Cats invented the legal theft concept of "Eminent Domain."
