a couple great bits from the book i'm reading . . . .
The city of Modesto, "sick and tired of hearing about" juvenile delinquency, sponsored a high school contest to nickname "non-delinquents." "Hi-fi citizens" received the top award, with "juvenile honorees, topteens, teamagers and goal getters" named as honorable mentions.also . . .
"In California," a 1959 issue of Cosmopolitan explained, "the boys and girls grow bigger and more beautiful. They are longer of leg, deeper of chest, better muscled than other American youngsters. Even their feet are bigger.
