Synopsis | Hurt that everyone in town considers him a freak for his huge appetite, Jughead decides to go on a diet. As soon as he stops eating, he becomes stupid, endangering his ability to win the inter-city scholarship trophy for the school. Miss Grundy realizes why Jughead never got fat: his body converts food into brain power instead of flab, and when he's not eating, he's not smart. |

Notes | Script identifiable as Frank Doyle by his writing style. The first page is another example of Schwartz's experiments with layout: he uses a smaller-than-usual splash panel surrounded by characters floating in an almost panel-free space, with only a few visual cues for us to understand what sequence the drawings are supposed to be in. |
