Carnival introduces the first baby-carriage Booth of 1935, a solemn, bun-faced 3-year-old named Dickie Walters. Since he is still comparatively inarticulate, Dickie Walters in Carnival is required to do little more than swallow cereal and retain his composure when Lee Tracy, blowing in his face, addresses him as "Poochy."

He drew his whip, leaned forward in his stirrup, almost lifted Quick Step across the finish line-still ahead by barely a nose. It was the second race that Jockey Westrope had won that afternoon. It brought his record for the year to 226 winners...
