It’s nice to see Violet still being involved in things in 1973. She was fairly prominent in the testimonial dinner story arc, and she’s hanging out with Chuck and the gang here. I like how the colourist made her dress violet, too.
I do remember a run of strips where C.B. has a stomachache on the pitcher’s mound (anxiety related) – a couple of the girls tell him he worries too much and should be like them, singing “La de da! Win or lose? Who cares? La de da! We don’t care! We don’t care!” – this doesn’t help.
Turns out all the really serious diseases were apparently taken. Schulz may be presaging how on ‘The Simpsons’, Krusty did fundraisers for motion sickness and balcony collapse.

Charlie Brown might be more worried about baldness.

My university dorm once did a benefit for rheumatoid arthritis.

Why not play a charity game for stomach aches? Charlie Brown seems to be getting one.

How about one for pains in the backside (and I don’t mean hemorrhoids…)

Ten years from now, they’ll still be arguing about which cause to support, and likely Lucy will bring up PMS …

Headaches, sore throats, and stomach aches may be part of COVID-19.

I would vote for headaches. People who don’t get them do not realize how debilitating they can be.

They should probably do it in Lucy’s honor since she seems to be the cause of Charlie brown’s headaches and stomachaches most times

How about premature baldness?

If not the patron saint, Charlie Brown could at least be the poster boy for stomach aches. Especially psychosomatic ones.

If Lucy is playing, it should be for getting a clue.

Take heart, oval head, all are good suggestions, coming from 4 to 5 year olds.
