W ilowing, glowing, blowing, growing Xnywhere it can -lere and there and everywhere Nithout a scheme or plan. Dn the head and over the ears Jnder the nose and chin. Jp and down and over and out Nherever you look, hair's in. Curly, kinky, long and straight Nho knows where it will stop? Today, the loneliest man in town Owns the barber shop! Vlothers and fathers fretting, Feeling their poor hearts sink. Sobbing, sighing, crying We've raised the missing link. But far from ape these creatures be, Although they do look scarey. The only difference with them is They just like being hairy.

22 HAIR Hair is a bother for some, and an identity vehicle for others. Hair is as identifiable as a person's name. Beards, sideburns and combinations of the two now appear on the faces of heretofore clean cut people. Lawyers, doctors, professors, policemen and the establishment iwhat- ever that ish have joined hirsute younger people and have gone hairy. This return to hair growth means, perhaps, a return to our beginning. An evolutional cycle? Perhaps this indicates a getting back to nature. We all need to return to nature and return nature to its original condition. Hair grows over the entire body with a few exceptions. This is natural. Therefore what is wrong with being natural. We weren't born with blades, and lather, or shavers and Nair. So let it be, it's hair.

You've come a long way baby Some still say it's oppressed by the male chauvinist pigs and others comment that we're still second- class citizens, . .but face it baby, you've come a long way and you can't expect everything to happen in one year. You've liberated every- thing from backs to breasts to men's restrooms and you still want more?! Doesn't that prove you're all wo- man! And what would he do without you? Men don't seem to understand the point women are trying to make. If you can imagine cinched in, pushed out, and strapped in, then as the expression goes, you're right on with this movement. In 1971, girls on campus were seen in jeans and without shoes or bras. Of course, there are the few, who read Vogue and Mademoiselle and showed up in the predicted max- is, gauchos, and knickers, all with the knee-high boots. in this year of do your own thing everything went in women's fashions on cam- pus from tee-shirts to Indian vests and ponchos, to the easy going comfort of the peasant dresses. So, the male population sat back and watched with ever increasing eye-strain to capture what might be a new fad. Never complaining, but musing about the idea of how free women want to be, then doing a double-take at the girl who just walked past, wearing a dog choker around her neck. Is that some kind of hint? 24
