Indexer Notes
There are two stories titled 'Draw Drama' published within 2 months of each other, one in Pep #340 and one in Laugh Comics #327. They have the exact same plot but different artists.
They easiest way to tell them apart is from the last panel. In this printing the last panel is a view of Archie in the detention room while Betty, Jughead and Dilton walk by outside the school.
