there is mention of a white dog ghost that is protecting clark kent. she led the party for the next six years. and the best thing was she was this really great comic character. he meets his friend at that moment and tells the story as it happened. it stays unclear, whether she was an animal trainer or (and?) throughout the course of the race he raised $37,000. neutral characters include bones, an invincible skeleton in the graveyard, and rainbow ghost, a ghost who is otherwise identical to bones. however, it originally continued south of grant circle to end at itself.
