Reading Room: TIPPY TEEN "KIss and Tell"

In the 1960s, besides sci-fi and superhero comics, most of us also read "teen humor" comics...
...like Tower's Tippy Teen, which featured this tale that started off with the heroine reading a romance comic...
If the plotting and art style on this tale from Tippy Teen #17 (1967) reads like an Archie Comics story, that's because many Archie writers and artists (who were freelancers) including Sam Schwartz, Harry Shorten, and Dan DeCarlo, also worked on Tippy strips for Tower Comics' short-lived company in the 1960s!
