Found a comic book from 1958 with Carvel mentioned in an ad. Charlton Comics ran a contest where readers sent in suggestions of names for a new character. A $1000 savings bond was provided as a prize by the Carvel chain (based in Yonkers, NY) of ice cream stands. The Flying Saucer, Lollaoalooza and Papalooza treats are mentioned, and picture of a stand printed. Top prize in contest was a "Buster Crabbe (in ground, concrete) Swimming Pool," franchised by the actor ("Flash Gordon" serial) and Olympic swimmer (1932).
