As far as I can tell, this article has nothing to do with schools. Though apparently there were a few teachers who turned on the side. This would never happen today because of how well we now pay our teachers. I do love the picture on the bottom of the second page. I think that woman was the inspiration for blowup dolls.
SEX IN THE SCHOOLROOM
Carnal capers, even murder, run rampant in our schools!
A California high school teacher made national headlines recently when Tie livened up classroom curriculum by conducting a “Little Kinsey” sex survey among his 30 physiology students.
His sin quiz got Cecil Cook suspended on charges of immoral and unprofessional conduct and set off a furor among his students and fellow teachers at Van Nuys High School, Los Angeles.

The vehicle is durably constructed of wood and metal and has an attractive appearance. It will prove a great boon to children who have a smaller brother or sister to take care of.
They really didn’t think these things out too well, did they?
Light Beam Stands Guard on Prison to Quell Jailbreak

While it does look pretty cool, that custom “Porsche” car will never catch on.
CUSTOM CARS and HOT RODS
JUDGE a man by the company he keeps” is a proverb which has managed to survive the years. But nowadays you can substitute “the car he keeps” and still be on the right track.
For more and more motorists are getting bored with the production-line beauty and middle-class standard performance of our stock cars. And more and more of them— are actually doing something about it.
