u"C UC-A-LUC-LUC ,
three kids in a
bug .. ."
"Hey, gang . . . Schlep's
singingl" said Barry."Oh, oh ," said C.C. "do
yo u think he's trying to tell
us something?"
"Let the car alone!" Susan
patted Schlep's rear fender.
"Oops!!" One touch was all it
needed.
Clatter Clatter. Bump!
Bump!!"Oh no, not aga in !" Barry
brought the jalopy to a halt
as Susan jumped out to pick
up the fender and put it
back where it belonged.
Puff, puff, chug, chu g.
They were on their way
again.
"Here we come!" sang outC.C. "r feel so good r could
honk!"
"S illy," said Susan. ''That's
Schlep 's job."
"Can't you take a joke?"
C.C. caught his bean ie as it
blew off in a gust of wind.
"Phew . . . got it. Don't want
to lose yo u, old fri end ."Over hill, down dale they
puffed, wheezed and
bumped along the winding
road, letting Schlep take the
lead. Well , so rt of. Actua lly
it sounded like Schlep's
last ride.
Crash! Craaaaack!
"What happened? Didwe hit something?" e.e.
listened to the engine, but
didn 't like what he heard.
vVhirrrrr. o a n n n n Sniffle.
"Look!" sa id C.C. He held
up a cardboard containercovered with yellow goo.
"Schl ep ran over a carton
of eggs!" Susan go t out of
the car to examine the evi-
dence. Egg yo lk s were
everyw here, spattered all
over the road , on Sc hI el' , and
now, on C.e.
"C'mon , let's go," sa idBarry. "It's too bad but we
can't put them together
aga in. Remember Humpty
Dumpty!"
SchI el' co llapsed in the
middle of the road. His
headlights ro lled off in to the
bushes. His fenders clattered
to the ground. His tireshissed sadly as the air
escaped to a place where it
wo uld do more good.
"What's wrong with him ?"
Barry looked at th e sorry
little car. "He feels bad, C.C.
r shouldn't have sa id any-
thing about Humpty
Dumpty.""But they're just eggs!"
CRA SH! Sc hl ep's license
fell off.
"r don't think you boys
really understand," sa id
Susan. "SchI el' feels guilty
that he hit the eggs. . . ."BlurI'. Sc hIel' heaved a
sigh , then, exhausted, sank
into silence.

Barry translated. "He said,
'I might have killed a future
chicken ,' "
"Great fri ed frogs' legs!"
exlaimed C.C. "It's only a
few crumm y eggs. Probablyrotten anyway. Why else
would anyone leave them in
the middle of the road to be
run over?" He turned and
spoke directly to Schlepcar.
"Listen, it's not your fault .
No more than all the bugs
that hit the window when
we're moving fast."Floop! Schlep's body
finally hit the ground. at
aile ounce of air was left in
his tires.
"What do you think you're
doing anyway?" Barry was
angry. "You're making poor
Schlep feel even worse!"
"C'mon fellows. Give me
a hand." Susan was picking
up Schlep's fallen parts.
"Let's put him together
again and be off."
Quickly they repaired
the ir beloved jalopy. Then
they climbed in , ready to go.
Chug. Chug. Phfffffft. . . .
"The engin e won't ca tch ,"
said Barry. "Schlep won't
move." He patted the car's
battered brass horn . "Do it,
Schlep! Do it for usl "
But Schlep wouldn't do
it . . . couldn't do it . . . for
anyone. He didn 't even have
enough energy to honkup Wonderbug.
One hour later Barry made
trouble and we'll be too if
we can't pull him out of it."
"But we're in the middle
of the country. . . ."
"Then, Susan, we're go ing
to have to walk ," repliedBarry. "We'll find a phone
. . . or a farm . . . whichever
comes first. Then call."
'Tll stay with Sc hiel' ,"
volunteered C.C. "Yo u two
take the hike."
"Good of you," snorted
Barry.
"Anything to oblige, oldman!" C.C. t il ted his beanie
over one eye and lay back in
Schlep 's rear seat, his feet
res ting over the car's side.
"Let's go, Barry. I'm really
worried abo ut Schlep. "
SUSA N AND BAlmY SET OFF
on the CO lin try dirt road.
They walked and walked for
miles , it seemed. The day
was hot and gett ing hotter.
"I don't know how much
longer 1 can continue," said
Barry, stopping to take off
his shoes and shake out the
grave l.
"Where are we? How
come there are no farm -
houses, no other vehicles on
the road?"
"You were the one who
wanted to take this quaint
country road, remember?"
Barry was cross. But Susan
was way ahead of him."Lookl" she painted
straight ahead. "A phone
nowhere. Now who'd
im ag in e that?"
Breathless, they ran to
the booth.
Susan searched the yellow
pagcs. "Here's exactly thekind of help we're looking
for." She pointed to a large
ad that read:

"My name's Barry and I'm

Susan tried to listen intothe conversation but all she
could hear was a man's

Gently, George, Susan,
C.C. and Barry hooked
Schlep to the towtruck.
The Ii ttl e car was too weak
to protest. C.C. released the
brake, put Schlep in neutral,and they were of!.
Meanwhile, back at the
garage, Dr. Hon kwell paced
his cluttered office, mutter-
in g to himself, his hands
clasped behind his back.
"What is a genius, a
brilliant doctor like me
doing in a dump like this?"He threw up his hands. "Th e
world owes me a livin g . . .I can't spend th e rest of my
days as an auto mechanic. I
want money, money, N E YIII"... AND FAME ...
Putt! Sputterrr .. .
Wheeze!
"Who's making that in-
fernal noise?" Annoyed, he
looked out the w indow.
George had returned with
the towtruck, three healthy
looking kids and thc sickest
car Dr. Honkwell had ever
seen. He walk ed out,
pointed at poor Schlep andsaid, "What's this you're
bringing me? World War I
surplus iron ??? That wreck
should be in the junkyard! "
A shudder ran through
Schlep's frame.
Barry piled out of the
truck, followed by Susan
and C.C."Look here, that's our car
"Your ad said you could
cure anything . . ." began
Susan.
"I am the great Honlcwell
. . . DOcrOR Honkwell to yo u
. . .children
. . ." he wrinkled
his nose.
"Children!! !" Those were
fi ghting words to C.C.
Dr. Honk-well ignored th e
outburst.
"I can cure anything.
Even this . . . this . . ."
"Pleas e, Dr. Honlcwell,"
Susan ran over and grabbedhis arm. "Please, Schlep's
more than a car to us . . ."
"S usan!" Barry snapped
a warning.
"He 's a fri end . . ." con'
tinued C.G. "In fact, he's
more than a friend."
"Shut up , you two! 'We
can go elsewhere if the
Doctor doesn't want our
business."
But Dr. Honkwell was
interes ted. What made this
wreck so special?
"Schlcp is really WONDER-
Bue ," blurted Susan.
"SBBHH! I told yo u neverto tell anybody!" Barry
hissed through clenched
teeth. His eyes were hard as
rock.
"Wonderbug?" asked the
Doctor.
"Yeah ," said C.C. proudly.
"He's a real supercar . . .
only . . . something's reallywrong with him. He ran over
chicken. . . ."
"Hmmmmm . . . obviously
a sensitive instrument,"
mused the doctor, hand on
his chin. "I will take a look
at him. And please pardonmy outburst. I was in a bad
mood . . . you know, we all
have th em sometimes."
"Oh thanks," breathed
"Susan.
"I think we should take
Schlep elsewhere," said
Barry coldly.
"But Bar . . ." said C.C."The doctor's agreed to
look at him . . . bes ides we
co uldn't move him if we
tried."
"It's two against one,"
agreed Susan . ''This is a
democracy, isn't it? Majority
rules . Schlep stays here."
"I don 't like it," growled
Barry. "I just don't like it."
Dr. Honkwell rubbed his
hands together and mo-
tioned to George to take
Schlep into the garage.
"Aha," he thought, "this
may be the jackpot! Finally
I've found a vehicle to takeme to the top!!! All I have to
do is bring this car totally
under my powers!"
He swept th e kids into his
diploma-filled waiting room,
then disappeared into the
gloomy garage.
"I don't trust him," said
Barry in a loud whisper."That's no honk doctor . ..

C.C. interrupted. "I think
you're making a mountain
out of a. . . ."
The door Hew open and
Dr. HonkweJI appeared in
the room, a se rious look
on his face."I t looks bad. Very bad.
Your vehicle is depressed
and will require my all -n ight
attention. Come back at
noon tomorrow and he'JI be
good as new."
"But . . ." Before Barry
could protes t, Susan and
C.C . shoved him out the
door.
Susan glanced ovcr her
shoulder. "Okay, Doctor."
THENEXT DAY Barry,
Susan and C.C. arrived
at twelve sharp to claim their
car. Dr. Honkwell met thcm
at the garage en trance and
led them in side. As they
en tered they could hear
VROOM V R O O ~ f ... a powerf III
engine. I t so unded familiar.There in all his glory stood
. . . WONDERDUC!, headlights
shining brightly, fenders
gleaming.
"I gave him a complete
go in g-over and Gcorge
polished him up good as
new. j ow am I the greatest
or am I the greates t?"
Susan and e.C . ran ovcr
to the pulsat in g powe rh ouse.
"Wonderbug! It 's really
you!!"
"What exactly did you
do?" askcd Barry sus-
"Wonderbug !
It's rea lly you!"
Susan cried .
pidously.
"Doctor's secrets, doc tor's
secrets," twinkled Dr. Honk
well. "Crummy kid ," he
thought. "Better butter him
up . He's too no sey as it is.
But my tim e is co rning ...in fa ct, it'll bc here by to
morrow!" The doctor could
barely hide hi s sa tisfac tion.
"Wh y not give it a spin ,"
he said. 'Try it out."
"We brought in Schl ep,
not Wonderbug," whispered
Barry. "What's gO ing on
here, unyway?"
"You 're just looking for
trouble, Barry ," Su san
jumpcd into the back seat
of the eager car. « WONDER-
UliC is just Schl ep's way of
say ing 'I'm better! ' "

,
"
"Okay," Barry spoke to
Dr. Honkwell. "We'll try it
out."
With a roar they raced out
of the garage. C.C. and
Susan glanced back to see
Dr. Honkwell wav ing. No
sooner did the doctor dis-
appear in the distance than
they hea rd a fat eful honk.
FOOMI
The amazing Wonderbug
vanished. In his place was
Schlep, moaning and wheez-
ing under the weight of
his riders.
"That shouldn't have
happened," said Barry .
"Maybe Schlep's just
acting up. Let's take him
into town and see how he's
doing."
C,C, pointed to a roadside
sign,
CLAPPER'S FALLS,
1MILE
AS THE CROW FLIES
FOOD DruNK LODGING
The little auto panted
ahead, but clearly, some-
thing was wrong, Schlepcar
just wasn't his old self.
"He seemed so fin e at the
garage, , , ." C,C. was
puzzled,
"That was Wonderbug,"
said Barry, "I just wonder if
that 'Doctor' Honkwell dis-
covered Schlep's secret, the
magic horn . Somehow I
don 't think so, but how else
did Schlep become
Wonderbug?"
"Maybe he did it himself,"
said Susan, "because the
Doctor did something to
make him feel good. , ' ."
BACK IN HIS CARAGE,
Honkwell was busy on
the phone.
"Sta tion KRZY ·TV? Yes,
this is Dr. Honkwell. I'll
deliver the headlighter to-morrow for the 8 p.m, show.
Yes, we'll be there on time."
YfjIIIf/"Hold it
or we' ll nail you
to the walls !"
gleefully, "W ithin an hour
I'll have that car standing
before me . , , MINE, ALL
MINE! An d after the go ing-
over I give it, it'll never
respond to anyone else
aga in ! Heh heh hehehehe-
heheheheh."
"C'mon Schlep, You can
make it! " Barry spoke softly
as the little car wheezed its
way into Clapper's Falls.
"Let's give it a rest,
Barry." Susan pOinted to a
parking place across the
street from Clapper's Falls
National Bank.
"Okay."
Puff, C roan, SSSSSsssss!
e.C. shook his head. "Sure
doesn' t sound any better."
Bang ... Bangl
"Help!"
Suddenly the doors of
Clapper's Falls National
Bankfl
ew open and a pair ofrobbers ran out, smoking
pistols in one hand, money

One. "Hurry, Har ry, th e carl"
Th ey ran toward th e curb
and disappeared into a
bea ten-looking coupe idli ng
at the com er.
"Gosh!" Susan's eyes
widened.
"It 's real, isn't it O" asked
CC
"You bet it is! " decla red
Barry. 'T his is a job for
Wonderbug! "
But the littl e car just stood
th ere. No honk. Nothing.
"Maybe he needs some
help ," said Susan,
C.C pressed th e horn. ''I'll
give him a hand . . . ."
No sound. "Do it aga in ."
Still nothing.
"\Vha!'s wrong with you
anyway, Schlep?" Barry was
fur ious. "Look. Those gang-
sters are ge ttin g away and
th e only one who could stop
them . . . Wonderbug. . .

Schiel' backfired. Th en,

"H Ell H Ell HEll , WHAT

Rubbing his hands , Dr.
Honkwell hurried out to
mee t th e putt-putting
Schiel'. The poor little car
could barely heave its parts
into the ga rage.
HONK. . HONK ...HONKKKK!
Barry, Su sa n and C.C.
were startled by the gunning
of the magn ificent motor,
th e eager snortin g of theexhaust and the unmistak

but not with Schlep ," said
Susan.
Barry stepped out of the
ca r and drew the other two
as ide.
Dr. Hon kwe ll whispered
into Wonderbug's horn.
"Remember . . . you are
guilty of murdering a
chicken . . . but I and only I
can hel p you . . . if you
cooperate. . . ."
"What's he say ing?" as ked
C.C. in a low vo ice.
"That's not as importantas what he may be doing . . ."said Barry. "Somehow it
seems that the onl y time
SchIel' can honk into
\·Vonderbug is when he's
around the doctor.
"Do yo u think we should
leave them togeth er?" asked
Susan."'We have no choice. It 's
the onl y way we'll ever know
what he's doin g to our
fri end the car." Barry tUrlled
to Honkwell. "Okay, Doctor.
You can have Schlep until
tomorrow morning."
Wonderbu g watched
without interest as C.C.,
Barry and Susan walked off
into the distance. Sitting in
the dri ver's seat , Dr. I-Ionk
well chuckled ev ill y.
"They've already los t yo u!
. . . but just wait till tonight!
You., my fi ne-fendered
friend , are taking me to
the top!"
" llo\\' can yo u even think
of such a thing?" said Su san.
'Tm so wor ried ahout Schlep,
I just don't kn ow what to

walked over and tu rn ed on
the TV.
Their favorit e program
was just ending.

The announcer continued :

"Shhhh . . ." Barry mo-
tioned for silence as he
inched the door open.
Dr. Honkwell was stand-
ing barely 15 feel away,
whispering to Schi e l""Remember, Sidney, [

"Uh, Dr. Rockwell . . . is

Purple-faced, Dr. Honk

Dr. Honkwell ripped off

on the Boor and stomped

This was it ! Susan ran
onstage and threw her a rm s

the back seat and C.C.
vaulted over the side.
"We're here, Schlep . . .we're here . . . . "
The little car chugged and
chortled with delight."Who are you . . . what is

wasn't laughing anymore.

pulling at his hair.

Barry. "He's still om old
