The cartoon below was found by Rob Hawkins who states that this cartoon (which was reprinted in Billboard) originally appeared in a New York City daily newspaper. It was said to have been precipitated by the use at the time of pingames in the psychiatric wards of city hospitals. The cartoon showed a patient who was offered a "bagatelle" game by a doctor refusing it saying "it's one of those things that got me this way!".
