FUN AT THE TEEN DANCE .....

Between the security of childhood and
the insecurity of the adult world, we find p
-a fascinating group of individuals called
"probies'' They come in assorted sizes,
weights and moods. They can be found in
hospitals, other girls' rooms, cramming
in the library, in love, and always in
debt. A probie is a future Florence Night- ;
