Swing With Scooter #34

Swing With Scooter #34 (On Sale: April 1, 1971), has a cover by Stan Goldberg and Henry Scarpelli.

We begin with Scooter in "No Place for a Hero" by John Albano, Stan Goldberg, and Henry Scarpelli. Sylvester has a toothache but he's afraid of dentists. Reprinted in Best of DC #53 (1984).

We follow that with Sylvester in "The Vote Getter" drawn by Stan Goldberg and Henry Scarpelli. Sylvester will do anything to be elected student council president.

Next is Scooter in "The Free-Loader" inked by Henry Scarpelli. Sylvester seems to have a good system for getting others to pay for everything he wants.

That is followed by Penny and Cookie in "The Checker Players" inked by Henry Scarpelli.

Next up are Penny and Cookie in "The Servant Problem" inked by Henry Scarpelli. When Penny's dad fires Harvey the butler, Pussycat sabotages all the possible replacements.

We next find Scooter in "True Blue Friends" drawn by Stan Goldberg and Henry Scarpelli. When the girls think Scooter is moving away, they conspire with Sylvester to scare off any prospective buyers for Aunt Hatta's house.

That brings us to Scooter in "The Dating Game" drawn by Stan Goldberg and Henry Scarpelli. Cookie ends up with multiple dates for Saturday night.

We end with Scooter in "Malibu the Matchmaker" by Barbara Friedlander, Doug Crane, and Henry Scarpelli. Malibu gets Sylvester to take out his cousin Mala, who turns out to be a real dog! Reprinted in Best of DC #53 (1984).
