On the popular daytime TV show, Schulz admits to Dinah that 'he once had a dog that resembled Snoopy. In 1937, Schulz made his pet dog famous.
Schulz was. 15 and he his first drawing, that of his dog, published in Ripley's "Believe It or Not." The caption on his drawing read "a hunting dog that eats pins, tacks and razor blades, owned and drawn by C. S. Schulz." Another fact comes to life on "Dinah's Place" when Schulz reveals that he still answers to the boyhood nickname of "Sparky." Prophetically, an uncle 'started calling him Sparky after a comic strip character named Sparkplug in Barney Google. Sharing the guest spotlight on "Dinah's Place" is Jerome Cushman, senior lecturer in children's literature at UCLA.
He gives advice on good 'and bad books for youngsters and tells parents what to look for in selecting reading materials for their children: Some students at Dixie Canyon Elementary School in Sherman Oaks, get the thrill of their young lives. They were the winners in the school contest to draw their interpretation of Snoopy. In addition to appearing on Dinah's show and getting to meet Snoopy's creator, Schulz, they had their drawings autographed. In exchange, Schulz picked up some insight into youths' cartooning ideas today. State Police Detain Youth, Arrest Man A young Lebanon man and a young Indianapolis girl were by.

But racial undercurrents also entered the contest, with both Lugar and Neff coming out against busing of school children after a federal judge dered Indianapolis public schools to desegregate. Both candidates stated later in the campaign that the mayor has no control over public schools in Indianapolis, but the under currents continued. Several prominent black Democrats came out for Lugar after Neff supporters adopted the slogan, "Neff for Your Neighborhood. and sported bumper stickers adorned with a picket fence. The slogan and picket fence were appeals to racism, the dissident black Democrats said.
Whatever the problems in Indianapolis, they didn't seem to affect the outcomes in the three Marion County cities where citizens voted for their own mayors plus the mayor of Indianapolis. Democratic Mayor Elton H. Geshwiler of Beech Grove and Republican Mayor' Morris Setties of Lawrence both were reelected. In Southport, Republican James T. Hill was unopposed.
Disagreement At Polls Ends In Shootout MANCHESTER, Ky. (AP)A Republican election judge was shot to death during an altercation at the Goose Rock voting precinct south of here Tuesday, and hours later murder-warrants were issued for two men. Commonwealth's Atty. Paul Hieronymous said warrants were issued for James Smith, 39, and George Duff, in his 40s or 50s, in the slaying of John Mills, 70. Smith was a Democratic election judge.
Hieronymous said Mills and Smith became involved in "some sort of difference" either in or near the voting booth, and that a shooting incident ensued. Mills died of four bullets in his Smith was wounded and taken to the University of Kentucky Medical Center in Lexington. Authorities said Duff was not in custody early Tuesday night. Hieronymous said additional warrants might be issued. "There is a possibility that several other people bystanders were involved," he said.
Witnesses said an argument developed over the voting qualifications of a man who was attempting to vote, but Hieronymous said the cause of the incident had not been determined. Election judges--one provided by each of two major parties to a polling place- are officially charged with the responsibility of seeing that voting is conducted properly.
