Synopsis
After Dollface's father buys a television set, the girls invite the boys over to watch, thinking they'll get to do some dancing when the boys are tired of watching the TV.
Dollface and Dopey have a fight and split up. Each takes a different date to the big dance, but they end up swapping dates and ending up together again.
Dollface and Bunbrain go to the theater to see singer Frankie Samone. Samone's press agent wants to use them as "typical bobby soxers" in a publicity photo after the show.
Dollface finds some half-price fabric to make a dress for a party, but at the party she finds the color and pattern is the same as the hosts' couch and curtains.
Back cover. Six black and white photos with hand-written caption. One photo is credited to the Honolulu Star-Bulletin newspaper, the others may or may not be from the newspaper.
