The more I view this picture of girls from Searcy Arkansas walking down the street sometime in the 50's the more I feel as if they'd be tough cookies to handle. They walk with determination. They have every direction covered. They have on socks and comfortable shoes so they could chase you down in a hurry. One even has on boots for stomping. That fourth one with the dress on may have on heels and she's definitely overdressed for this street patrol.
I love the fact that they are trim and not a single one is overweight.
Seeing our young people walk the streets today will find very few who are not overweight. We also see very few with short shorts today and if they had on short shorts they'd have on spike heeled shoes and toddle along trying to maintain balance while trying for glamour.
Perhaps a reader can identify these gang members and tell us what they were doing and why they were doing it. Personally, I like them. And that could be because I once dressed a lot like this.........
