“Mumbletypeg” is the way I generally hear it. Of course, kids don’t carry knives these days, so most of the people that I know who play it are medieval re-enactors who play it with their misericordes.

Proof that the game was called “mumble peg,” not “mumbley peg,” as I read in various articles.

The cat looks … strangely familiar. Perhaps bit, you know, crazy. The pup, however, seems to be a total stranger from out of the crowd….

The cat reminds me more of Krazy Kat than Mooch.

McDonnell named Mooch for Baron Mooch, another of Herriman’s strips.

Herriman drew many other cats in various Sunday and daily comics before “Krazy” and all had the signature bow around the neck .
