I have heard that Frederick Burr Opper ghost-penciled (but did not ink) a Katzies page for Dirks. Both the African-American and the Katzies faces in the second panel have that Hooligan look, very much like Opper's work.

Hitt and Runn by "Hitt" 1917
Hitt and Runn by "Hitt" (Oscar Hitt?)
Hitt drew "Bud Fisher" almost better than Bud Fisher and added a touch of George Herriman and Cliff Sterrett to boot. Dates on top of strips.
Shenanigan Kids
The Katzies daily turned into the Shenanigan Kids about October 23, 1918 and was still running January 3, 1919.
