DescriptionYoung men and women, students at Wethersfield High School, are seated at tables in a school dining room or gymasium. The boys wear jackets and bow ties or neckties, the girls wear evening gowns or skirts and blouses. In one photograph a boy wears a sleeveless sweater and a girl wears a vest. Party decorations include a model of the Eifel Tower and picket fences. In one photograph a young man pretends to smoke a pipe and play a guitar. In another photograph, boys, and possibly girls, are having their hair cut. One photograph was taken in a family living room with patterned drapes and a television with a circular screen, another was taken outdoors. Some people wear eyeglasses.
