Feb. 26 Softening Up The Tough Guys. Cookery, home management, and beauty culture - they are all on the agenda of the Squires Youth Club in the tough Elephant and Castle area of London. And the keenest students of those subjects are - the boys. Only a few years ago, teenage boys would have laughed at the ideas of learning the social races - but gradually they have taken over these classes which were originally intended for the girls. The area was once notorious for the teenage gangs roaming the streets - but now many of the boys are realising the importance of becoming socially acceptable - and in becoming acceptable to others, they become acceptable to themselves - thus the tendency to crime, and drug addiction is reduced. Amused, but not mocking the boys watch their friend being treated by beautician, Christine Shaw
