I just realized the man's name in the newspaper article that's being read in Islipp's office is "Woodcock." Now, unless is Brent's got some story about how that was Felix Adler's great-aunt's hairdresser's college roomate's first boyfriend's name, I'm going to assume that was the writers getting one by the censors.
Her second boyfriend.The character named in the newspaper article is "Woodcock Strinker," the name of Shemp's character in a couple of his solo shorts... OPEN SEASON FOR SAPS (1944) and JIGGERS, MY WIFE (1946).
Really? Wow, that's interesting! That would imply that maybe the name was socially acceptable or at least back then had a different meaning?
I went to school with a girl whose last name was 'Woodcock.' And I believe it's a bird, as well....http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woodcock
