$11 Billion Jingles in Teen Pockets
It may not be surprising to anyone, especially parents,
to learn that teen-agers' pocket money has increased al-
most 300 per cent since 1945. But the exact figure it
amounts to should lift anybody's eyebrows.

notion's 22/2 million teen-agers —12 per cent of the
population — spent $11 billion in 1963
By 1970, the annual spending of teenagers will reach
nearly $21 billion
Currently, the national average of this group is $489
a year, or about $9 40 a week More than half of them
