An anthology issue featuring multiple humorous stories.

Other stories include "Do or Diet," depicting Hap's golf game, and a romantic hotel story where Hap and a woman seek quiet at a hotel but are repeatedly interrupted by rowdy guests and noise.

Winner Lose All!
9 pp · Humor, Teen

When teen Hap Hazard and his pal enter a contest for the best letter on "Why I Hate Women," they see a golden opportunity to raise a hundred bucks for the country club dance—so Hap submits an entry under his pop's name too. But when his father's letter wins and the news hits the papers, Horace Hazard becomes the town's most infamous woman-hater, and every woman in town decides to give him a piece of her mind. Hap's scheme to fund his evening out spirals into pure chaos as his father pays the price for his son's clever idea.

Do or Diet
11 pp · Humor, Teen

Hap Hazard trains hard to prove he's not past his prime before facing off against his rival Barret in a golf championship match, but the two competitors' attempts to sabotage each other with food gifts spiral into chaos. What starts as a test of fitness and willpower becomes a slapstick battle of pranks and pies that neither man can resist, threatening to derail everything they've worked for.

The Super-Suit Salesman
9 pp · Humor, Teen

A young man scrapes together his life savings to buy his girlfriend a birthday gift—a watch advertised in the newspaper—and lands a job at a clothing store to earn the extra cash he needs. When he's left alone to mind the shop, a series of suit-shopping customers creates total chaos in the fitting booths, and our hapless hero finds himself caught in the middle of a wild mix-up that threatens his whole plan. Will he manage to pull off the perfect gift, or will this job turn into just another disaster?
