A Boy Named Charlie Brown

Charlie Brown's baseball team loses the first Little League game of the season, and he becomes convinced that he will never win anything. Linus encourages him to maintain a positive attitude and suggests that people learn more from losing. As Charlie Brown studies for the school championship, he and Linus sing a spelling mnemonic as Snoopy accompanies them on a Jew's harp. After correctly spelling several words, Charlie Brown is eliminated when he misspells beagle as in B–E–A–G–L.
