College Confidential1960

[first lines]

Walter Winchell:
[reading from script into microphone] Good morning, Mr. and Mrs. America, and all the ships at sea. Sociology quizzes and sex questionnaires are on the docket today at Collins College. Midnight parties and midnight moving pictures classified in police files but not in college catalogs are catapulting a little college town into the big city headlines. The famous newspaper people assigned to this case make up a who's-who of journalism. At eleven o'clock, just two minutes from now, a trial will begin that may shake American education. This case has been likened to the celebrated Scopes monkey trial, when the teaching of evolution in schools was being judged. Now, it is sex on trial, and that is a subject which concerns everyone. It all started two weeks ago in this small college town, with a couple parked on Lovers' Lane, like thousands of other young couples throughout the world were doing at that very same moment. Little did they know that they would set off a chain of events that would rock the civilized world.
