After news spreads that Bart will be taking Sylvia to the prom, Midge and other girls become jealous and decide to spy on them. When Midge spots Sylvia and Bart driving together, she attempts to follow them but crashes into a tree, resulting in an accident. The story explores themes of jealousy and rumor-mongering among teenagers. The issue also includes the article "Are Parents Human?" by Susan Dalsimer, which discusses parent-teenager relationships and the importance of understanding and communication, and concludes with a "Going Steady by Mail" pen pal section featuring photographs and descriptions of readers seeking correspondence.
When Chet Grover arrives at Midge's front porch with the glamorous Sylvia in tow, Midge's comfortable world as his steady suddenly feels threatened—especially when Sylvia announces she'll be staying in town for weeks. Determined not to let heartbreak define her, Midge crosses paths with the charming newcomer Bart Clayton and agrees to go to the prom with him, even as Chet keeps trying to get back in touch. As Midge navigates her feelings and the attention of two very different boys, she'll have to figure out what she really wants—and who Sylvia really is to Chet.
When a charming real estate salesman shows up at Dina's door with a questionable claim about her house being on the market, she seizes the chance to get to know him—but finds herself in deeper than she bargained for. As Dina juggles keeping Charlie interested and hiding the truth from her parents, a rivalry with her best friend over the same boy threatens to expose her scheme. Can she come clean without losing him altogether?
A hardworking young woman stuck at home keeping house meets her mother's new handyman—a charming fellow determined to get her out and living a little. When a wealthy boy from town invites her to a fancy dance, she's tempted by the promise of glamor, but an evening at the ball reveals what really matters when her steady, devoted handyman shows his true colors. It's a Cinderella tale for the modern dating scene, where sometimes the prince you're looking for has been right there all along.
When a car accident brings together Jerry Brown's passenger Linda Storm and Dan Horton, the charming driver who caused the collision, Linda finds herself drawn into a romance that clouds her judgment as a witness.

A sharp reminder that first impressions can blind you to the truth, even when you think you're a good judge of character.
