Trademark circus

The former director at MPOW is a huge fan of the circus. He's such a huge fan, in fact, that he's currently traveling with the circus, donning a white shirt, red bow tie and black suspenders every evening in his role of ticket collector. So what happens when the ringmaster has a copyright question? Why, call up the trusty copyright specialist at the ticket collector's former medical library, of course! As it turns out, the ringmaster's question actually concerns trademark, not copyright, law, which is not an area with which I am familiar. However, as a dutiful librarian, I will do my best to help him. Besides, it isn't every day that I get a phone call from the circus... See how my job is interesting?!
