At this point in his records, William Woolfolk was identifying the publishers to whom he sold each story, so I know that "The Untamed," like the romance stories, went to Orbit. What that two-part story was or where it ended up—who knows? The rest of this month's scripts sold to DC.
UPDATE: SangorShop found "My Hero" after I posted; I found the Prescription for Happiness when I looked at the scanned comic itself.

- One fits, the other seems likely
SangorShop, "My Hero" does sound like a good fit for "Hero of My Heart"; I'm putting that in the post. I don't think two stories written in the same month can be assumed to appear in the same issue, #38 and #40 (and so on) carrying untitled "Prescription for Happiness" installments like #39.
