Scope and content
Patrolman Bill Herbst (left) and Sgt. Bill Christilaw have caught Robert L. Dykeman "fishing for votes" as the March 12, 1935, election for Park Commissioner drew near. Mr. Dykeman did not let his small stature deter him from running for office. Although he did not win this political race, he did become County Clerk in the late 1940s, a position he held until his death at age 69 in 1963.
