Wonderful Idea. There is, of course, the Fighting Avacados somewhere out
west. And we DO have the Fighting Conch (Strombus pugilis) to start
with.  A defensive team could adopt the "Impenetrable (sp.) Chitons".
        We should suggest such action to those institutions being pressured to
drop their references to "Native Americans".
        The Seminoles could change to the Semele. The Cherokee could easily
change to the Fighting Charonia. "Apaches" could become "Argonauta".
        Why the possibilities are endless!
