Disclose Notes: This may be reprinted from Life With Archie (Archie, 1958 series) #76. Same page count and name, and the synopsis fits, but the characters list a Mr. Jenson as janitor but there is no janitor in this story, though Svenson is referenced in this story, and it looks like it was relettered at some point.
