Archie's Girls, Betty and Veronica Annual #2
In "Ladies Man!", Riverdale welcomes ballet master Itchinski, who’s crafting a new dance inspired by American themes. Betty and Veronica push for a Native American twist, leading Archie, Reggie, and Jughead into feathered costumes—Jughead even playing a Cleveland Indian—before a chaotic jitterbug lesson with Reggie in drag throws the whole project into disarray. Art by Harry Lucey brings the whimsy to life in this 1954 annual, a playful slice of Riverdale charm.

A ballet master named Itchinski is visiting Riverdale to create an original ballet based on American themes. Betty and Veronica want the theme to be American Indians so they dress up in native costumes and want Archie and Reggie to do so too. Archie, Reggie and Jughead dress up as Indians and Jughead (a Cleveland Indian) takes Itchinski to visit the tribal chief (Archie) who gets his sister (Reggie in drag) to teach the ballet master to jitterbug. After that session Itchinski cancels his plans at Riverdale.
