Description
Photograph was edited for publication purposes
Photograph caption dated December 16, 1962 reads, "There's scent in the air and Alan Skobin, 10; his dog, Candy, and friend, Steve Danning, 9, are led on wild goose (?) chase to find Alan's missing sister, Missy, 7. Alan's first case, finding his sister, posed some perplexing problems. The police were drawn into the case, but after a two-hour search, came up with nothing. Even the neighbors were called into the hunt, to no avail. But Alan, Steve and Candy saved the day. After a tedious search for footprints, a short ride on a scooter around the block, and a hunt throughout the neighborhood. Candy caught the scent and Missy was found."; See images #00124296 through #00124298 for all photos in this series.
