mo HAT BRIGADE
HAS FRENCH RECRUITS

PARIS, QP)-The mo Hat Brigade"
is making an impression on Paris.
American youths who parade without
headgear have been reinforced by
some English and a few tirlidly daring
Frenchmen who want to be "very
sport"
The first hatless man here was re-
puted to be Eudeline, manager of
Eugene Criqui, who was worlds light
weight champion for few weeks.
Some of the sleek haired summer re-
sort youngsters followed his lead at
the time but got scant sympathy. Since
many Americans and some English
have been roaming the streets with
out hats the French are taking cour-
age, and are doubtfully discussing the
advantages.
The principal objections to the Gus
tom are tradition and the inability to
make a thoroughly conventional salute.
1t is the opinion of the rigid Journalists
that there can be no merit in standing
uncovered in the presence of women
or an elderly man if there is no hat
to remove.
