Answer:  SIDEKICK

(One of those double meaning puns!  Not bad.  How can you not enjoy this little tribute to Hanna Barbera???  Fun for kids of all ages!

There were no new clue words today, and only two of the jumbles appear to be new, the ones for “movie” and for “skimpy”.  We haven’t seen “coward” in quite a while.  The answer letter layout was great.  Nicely cryptic.  And, the cartoon was very entertaining.  Yogi better watch out.  He might get his butt sidekicked!  Be well and do good, friends.
