I think that the first mention of a possible "carnival" or "circus" connection to this case was as wild speculation in an old newspaper article. The context was NOT that a carnival worker might have abducted Dickie but rather that he might at some time (months earlier) have met a boy who had run...
Hazel (Bowling) Cross went missing 3 May 1973.
The Toledo (Ohio) Police Department is the investigating agency with jurisdiction in her case.

17 March will mark 82 years since Major Robert Clark went missing (1944).
It is possible that there could be an investigation report in files of the Hoke County (North Carolina) Sheriff's Office, since Major Clark's Dodge coupe was found in that jurisdiction.
It is also very likely that there...
The microfilm files or bound editions of the local news paper ( if such records exist) might have stories on football games or car accidents in October 1965. There might also be some detailed reporting on Dickie's disappearance.
Today's on-line searching has turned up a lot of information on...
It would help in understanding the sequence of events to know some of these things. What might seem minor or unimportant could confirm or refute other information reported.
There is almost too much information available concerning Dickie Friday evening, and then almost nothing from dawn...
Probably the most likely place to find the 1965 Mapleton High School football schedule is in the 1966 yearbook. Dickie played clarinet in the Mapleton HS Band. Was he playing in the band that Friday evening?
I don't think a PTA " carnival" with only 1,000 folks attending is anything at all...
Bumping this thread up. It has been over 51 years since this fiend was captured and then shot while attempting to escape.
There is a good chronology of his travels and crimes, but probably is not complete and he may have murdered other victims as well.
Some of these cases might be linked, but probably not all.
Annette and Mylette Anderson were probably victims of serial killer Paul John Knowles. He confessed to abducting and killing them, but their bodies were never found.
Knowles was on a cross country killing spree from July 1974...
Maybe a small and insequential question, but can anyone confirm that a football game actually was played at Mapleton High School the evening of Friday 1 October 1965? And, if so did the school band perform at it?
The Maple River Messenger article stated that Dickie and his whole family...
William Schrader was a serial pedophile predator who was identified as the killer some 63 years after the murder of 9 year old Carol Ann Dougherty.
He preyed on members of his own family. We're there others as well?
This thread should probably be moved to the solved section.
This case was never officially solved or closed by the Blue Earth County Sheriff's Office. It is still in their jurisdiction and should be considered active.
The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA) is fully aware of it and has all of the press articles about it, as well as current...
The murder of Mary Klinsky occurred over 60 years ago in September 1965. It remained unsolved until DNA evidence in 2008 proved that Zarinksy was the killer.
What other abductions, rapes, and murders did he commit before he was caught?
