The show devotes the entire week to a study of the American teen-ager. "Today" reporters Dick McCutchen, Maurie Robinson, and Joe Michaels have visited Louisville, Ky, Minneapolis and St.Paul, Minnesota, and Philadelphia to report on such subjects as the teen-ager and authority, mores, religion, self-expression and the future. Each morning one subject is discussed and illustrated through specially filmed features and live remotes. On today's opening show, Dick McCutchen reports on the "Teen-ager and Authority" which includes films of the Philadelphia Youth Study Center and also deals with a New York gang and a high school fraternity. A spokesman from the Pentagon discusses youth in military life, and a psychiatrist, a principal, a juvenile- court judge, a police captain, and a parent from various sections of the country compose a panel which comments on the features. Host: Dave Garroway
