I disagree with that. There may have been very isolated drug use in small pockets around the country, but that would have been it.
In 1955 I graduated from the 3rd largest 3 year high school in the country. There were over 900 in my graduating class. No one I knew had ever heard of or considered using drugs. It wasn't until the hippie bastards in the 60's made them popular that we had a problem involving kids.
