Hi-School Romance #49

In "Nobody's Sweetheart," high school athlete Barbara struggles with feeling overlooked, especially when Clark—her school’s star athlete—offers her a full scholarship to State U. Though she initially plans to attend an all-girl college, Clark’s comment about boys preferring "dainty, feminine" girls pushes her to transform her look, hoping to win the attention of classmate Jack. When Jack surprises everyone by getting engaged to someone else, Barbara finds herself drawn to Clark in a way she never expected, leading her to reconsider her future—and the path she thought she’d chosen.
