Put a hat over itCiirly, weVe all had a look c HERE'S CURLY, the only man in the world who ever had a head of hair. Comes the middle of winter with snow and ice or hot summer days with the sun beating down and Curly still keeps his locks bared for all to gasp at. Frankly, wavy locks don't do a whole lot more for us than any other kind of hair, but obviously tliey do for Curly, and that's why we feel a little sorry for him The best way no f to keep those curls looking pretty is to wander around without a hat. Honest. A hat is primarily for protection, protection for your hair and your health. The hot sun dries up your hair and your scalp, and cold winds and rain and snow beat ing against a bare head are a cold bug's best allies. Here's something for psych 1-2: <_ Curly doesn't look any better without a hat. As a matter of fact, he looks like a darned fool. But some thing deep down in Curiy's libido makes him think he's climbing up Dr. Adler's Male Complex ladder when he struts around like a rugged bear. Curly, like everyone else, would look a whole lot better and feel a lot better, too, if he'd let a hat protect his health and improve his appearance. *'Wear a Hat-It^ as HeaMty as lt« Handjome!"

Under the present constitution, def inite liaison is set up between the two bodies, and it is stated that the administration will recognize the Stu dent Council as an official body, and THE the only official body, representing the students. Any complaints brought be fore the Council would be presented to the administration, along with the ARROW Council's recommendations on the mat ter. Also, the administration would f: use the Council as a "sounding board" for determining student opinion. SHIRT! The argument that proponents of the other two constitutions throw at the present system is that it lacks rep resentation. Under the present consti tution everyone on campus is repre sented through his floor representa tive, who gives his views to the vice- president of the Student Council. All students wishing to participate in student government may do so, as the constitution states: "All mem bers in good standing in the student Get ready for Easter icith Arrow Shirts in white, body shall be eligible for committees." solid colors, and patterns, and Arrow Ties.

Drawing a conclusion, I would like to say that the functions of the Coun cil are already defined satisfactorily under the present constitution but are not carried out. The fact that they are not carried out does not mean that the constitution is at fault, but that those who were elected to carry it out GILBERT'S do not perform their tasks as stated by the constitution. 813-817 MICHIGAN STREET t JOE GALLAGHER.
