Wow! The memories of my 1956-1960 High School years came flooding back when I saw this photo. Sadly, we Americans have moved on, but not up on the "civilized" scale. I often remark to friends I remember that most people actually wore a genuine smile in those days as compared to today's scornful frown that adorns the down-turned faces of 21st century people. Maybe the fact the news was on from 6:00 PM to 6:15 PM, there was no internet, computers, cellphones and social media had something to do with it.
