 More than 400 years ago, the Spanish conquistadors invading North America for gold and ad. venture, reported back to their king that a certain band of say ages they had encountered, "cut their hair even with their ears in sign of deep mourning"
 The savages were Navajo In. dians and the custom has not en- tirely died out among them, ac- cording to Marguerite De La Mot te, leading featured player in "The Last Frontier" Metropoli- tan picture at the Palace tonight and Wednesday.
 At the death of a Navajo brave" said Miss De La Motte, "a chosen number of the family is obliged to go through the hair trimming rites which follow. The hair is saved and later when an image of the dead brave is paint. ed or carved on stone, it is pasted on the drawn head. This practice is confined to several small tribes of the Navajo nation. '
