 I see three different edits listed for the film. 1:35 original at IMDB, 1:33 video from The Video Beat, and 1:31 for the 1993 VHS release.
I saw a TV showing in the 1990s but did not keep it. I recall a couple of references that I don't see in the current video. The title song was cut from that showing. It sounds like a bunch of fancy cutting for this film.
Currently the complete Video Beat edition is available on Youtube.

 About the poster for Trouble At 16. It mentions Banned. I perceive this is referring to the story involving killing a student by hitting him on the neck with a baseball bat. I'd agree this is too blatant violence for a film, even if it's only spoken of. Was the film banned in 1960 in some places?

 Some points of interest for music fans:
Conway Twitty was a major rock & roll star at the time for MGM, who made this movie.
Jimmy Boyd as one of Twitty's gang is the pop singer who had hits like I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus and Dennis The Menace.
Cliff Edwards has a small role. For Walt Disney he did the voice of Jimminy Cricket and sang the song When You Wish Upon A Star.
