    Adventures of Mighty Mouse (1952-1955 St. John) 7

Papa tries to distract the Terry Bears from their window-smashing baseball game to work on clay modeling instead, but the results are not what he expected. When a gorilla escapes from the circus and captures Mitzi, Mighty Mouse flies into action, in a story perhaps inspired by the Fleischer Superman cartoon "Terror on the Midway."
