Published-text verification notes

1. The quiz spells the name RENNY ROKER. The supplied supporting article also spells the name Renny Roker.
2. The known series-level erroneous form Renny Rocker is not present in the supplied 1979 quiz or article.
3. Question 2 writes “COCA COLA COWBOY” without the hyphenation used in the article’s “Coca-Cola Cowboy.”
4. Question 4 uses the phrase “JAG WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP SERIES.” The article describes the first Jag World Championships and the short tradition that followed, rather than printing that exact phrase.
