It was actually based on a Robert McCloskey book called "Homer Price". Actually, I'm surprised Groening hasn't adapted that short story for a Simpson episode; it has so much potential.
 
Did WRC move "It's Academic" to Sundays at this time? (I remember in the 1970s that "It's Academic" usually aired on Saturday nights.)
