Baseball has had a profound influence on the English language. The sport introduced countless phrases that are now used in everyday language, from "touch base" to "out in left field" to "rain check." By the late 19th century, baseball slang was widely used in newspapers and adopted by fans. Over generations, baseball terminology became a way for young people to discuss their successes and failures. While some sought to suppress baseball slang early on, its influence only continued to grow as the sport developed. Today, the extent of baseball terms in the English language is enormous.

This document discusses the history and evolution of comics, including their origins in newspaper comic strips in the early 1900s. It provides examples of some famous early comic strips and covers that also served propaganda purposes. The text explores how comics combine both images and words to tell stories, with some debate around whether or not comics still work without text. It notes that more detailed art can sometimes replace text by using symbols and imagery to convey meaning.
The document discusses historical photographs taken in New York City in the 1930s depicting workers during the construction of skyscrapers. It specifically references the famous photo "Lunch atop a Skyscraper" taken by Charles Ebbets in 1932 showing workers eating lunch on a steel beam hundreds of feet in the air during the construction of the RCA Building (now the GE Building).
