Rebels In The Streets - Kitty Hanson

The Story of New York's Girl Gangs
A dramatic expose of one of the most shocking and least publicized problems of the big cities


HORWITZ PUBLICATIONS PB 228
1ST PRINTING 1965
SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA

Here is a strange and savage story of the Dagger Debs, a girl gang. Girls between childhood misbehavior and adult crime. Girls who get drunk on cheap wine and high marijuana. Girls who are profane, sexually promiscuous, aggressive and anti-social. Here is their gripping, shocking story. A piercing social document, it will hold you in profound fascination and utter disbelief.

Written by the author of award-winning "I Lived with a Teen-Gang," a series which appeared in the New York Daily News, REBELS IN THE STREETS is a compelling narrative, a truthful, moving portrait of the violence that courses through a great city, of those who try and stop it, and of the lives it touches and tears. It is a true story. Names and neighborhoods have been changed, but the people are real, the events are true.

Wild Water - Ray Slattery

The waves peaked like WoW and the fights got fiercer on the second leg of Rick and Jonnie's surfari shindig


HORWITZ PUBLICATIONS 
SURFARI HIGHWAY SERIES #2
FIRST PRINTING 1966
SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA

Ever tried night surfing at Surfers with a curvey Italian bird?

Jonnie felt the swell beneath his board and looked beyond Maria to the beach, and beyond that. It was strange to see only the lights of the highway breaking the blackness, and the moving headlights of cars silent and ghost-like, flickering. "Let's try this one for size!" And together they cracked an enormous wave.

It was all darkness and dazzle, a black shine of water and the street lights tipping crazily in the distance. The sting of spray at his neck and shoulders and the uncanny life of the board beneath his feet were the only familiar sensations. He thought he heard Maria scream in the smashing thrill of the break as he swept into the beach.

He couldn't see her anywhere.

My God, where is she now, in the wild watery darkness of the night?

Hoodlum - Gunther Bahnemann

"Delinquents with sex laws of their own, they defied society in vicious orgies of brutality and vandalism"

 

HORWITZ PUBLICATIONS NA67
SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA
2ND EDITION 1965

You have never read a story quite like this!

A DRAMATIC EXPOSE!

It was written in the cell of a Brisbane gaol by a prisoner who had the opportunity of observing and talking to the worst kind of juvenile delinquent.

The facts on which this story is based are fully authenticated from press and police reports. It could be the story of any street-prowling delinquent.

Avoid these kids-you may be their next victim!
