THE CAUSE for flowing
hair in Ann Arbor may be
found in the fact that
haircut prices were placed
at 75 cents last week by
the City Barbers Associa-
tion . .. Little shavers can
get rid of their excess hair
for 65 cents as long as they
are under 12 years old . .
It is said that "illicit bar-
berships have sprung up in
dim dormitory and frater-
nity rooms-where ama-
teur shears-wielders ruin
wavy pompadours, and the
only password is "I brought
a bowl."

tutes are minimizing the
impact of war on State

Latin American correspondent for
Booth Newspapers, will give a movie
lecture, "Wheels over the Andes," at
8:15 p.m. Tuesday in the Lydia Men-

Mexico and Central America, Alaska
and even Europe.

to Europe on an Irish freighter and
slipped into German. When he left

and fled to the Balkans.
To add another to his many means
of travel, he rode a camel over the
Arabian desert and then hiked into
India. The British objected to his
