For several seasons football players
have worn long hair to protect their
heads. This year it is said they will
wear short hair for the same reason.
Long hair is very little protection,
since baIdheaded players get hurt no
worse than their chrysanthemum
companions. On the other hand
long locks Haunting in the face OF
an opposing college Indian furnish
