    This is one of L. B. Cole's best covers, a fine example of his striking use of primary colors, which he referred to as "poster colors." #5 of "Pop Teen-Agers" is actually the first issue in the series, (#1-4 were "School Day Romances"). This issue has no publication date in the indicia, or elsewhere. The Brat Race; Eve's plan to ruin Toni and Butch's date backfires. Junk and Jive activity page by Ray Gill; How to make a trap drum set out scrap wood and wrapping paper. Buoy Crazy starring Ginger Bunn, art by Manny Stallman; The girls foil Lefty's attempt to keep them away from the boys camp. Profile of Betty Grable with photo. Potions of Love; Midge Martin and Charlie foil crooks who use a love potion to distract their victims. Rajah Dodger; Eve Adams and her aunt wind up in Rajah Smaja's harem. 36 pgs. Cover price $0.10.
