# Kathy #12 (1952) This issue contains two stories featuring the teen character Kathy. "Myrtle in 'Lati Dati'" follows Myrtle as she rushes to a Latin class and encounters a boy named Greg at a soda shop. In "Basement Bargain," Kathy rushes through school hallways late for Latin class, frustrating her teacher Miss Crane, who warns her to do her assignment on the blackboard. Kathy participates in a school bazaar where she and her friends set up booths, including a Frankfurters booth, with Kathy struggling to keep up with customer demand before visiting a fortune teller booth run by another girl at the event.

Bingo's got his eye on a girl at the dance, but his two left feet keep getting in the way—literally stepping all over her during their first encounter. Determined to win her over, he enrolls at Arthur Burry's School of Dancing, where he promptly becomes every instructor's worst nightmare, though somehow he muddles through and earns his diploma. When he finally gets his chance to show off his newfound skills back at the dance floor, things don't go quite as planned.

Kathy Crane

Kathy Crane takes charge of the hot-dog and hamburger concession at the school bazaar, but her booth's success draws unexpected competition—a fortune-telling booth that lures the crowds away. When disaster strikes and threatens her stand, Kathy pivots to running a kissing booth instead, turning it into the bazaar's hottest attraction. As the boys exhaust their spending money, Kathy comes up with one final scheme to keep the booth profitable and save the day for charity.
