“Judy's Twist”

In "Judy's Twist," Terry and her friend Joe face off in a lakeside race, but the real challenge comes when a new girl enters the scene—clinging to Joe, claiming she can't swim. When Terry stages a fake emergency with a poodle, the girl’s sudden dive to "rescue" it reveals a surprising skill. The truth unfolds quietly on the shore, where Joe’s growing awareness of the girl’s act brings him back to Terry. Cover by John Stanley, this 1962 Dell issue captures a moment of playful wit and shifting alliances, all told through crisp, typeset lettering.

Terry and her friend Joe are at the lake when she challenges him to a race. Terry wins, but discovers Joe has been talking to a "snobbish" new girl. The girl is clinging to Joe, claiming she can't swim, and Terry suspects she's faking to get his attention. Terry then fakes a poodle in distress, which prompts the girl to reveal she's an expert swimmer as she dives in to "rescue" it. The poodle reappears on the beach, and the girl returns, only to find a disillusioned Joe now sitting with Terry. He acknowledges Terry's prank, seeing through the girl's ruse.
