I hoped someone could help me with some information about the King
Features Syndicate editor (or manager) Ward Greene (1892 -  ?  ), who
wrote the first daily newspaper strips with "Scamp" (1955 - 1956). The
artist was Dick Moores.

In fact Ward Greene wrote the original short story "Happy Dan, the
Whistling Dog", which was Walt Disney's major inspiration to the
development of the animated feature "Lady and the Tramp" (1955), where
Scamp is introduced.

Thanks a lot!
