‘Honeymoon’ Act
Signed Into Law
JUNEAU, UPi — The law grant
ing home leaves to honor prisoners
went into effect Saturday, but
there won’t be any exodus from
Alaska’s jails.
The so-called Hellenthal honey
moon bill was one of nine meas
ures signed toy Governor Egan
Friday.
Under the terms of the act, the
leaves will toe granted as a priv
ilege — not a right — under rules
and regulations still to be pre
pared toy the State Commissioner
of Health and Welfare who ad
ministers the state’s penal system.
The leave provisions presum
ably will require negotiation with
the Federal Bureau of Prisons
also, since prisoners serving terms
of more than one year are con
fined in federal institutions under
contract.
The law applies only, to honor
prisoners serving terms of more
than a year. It limits the family
visitation privileges — for both
married and single prisoners —
to a maximum of one week every
six months, at the prisoner’s own
expense.
The bill was sponsored toy Rep.

Death on the Trestle
MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., Iff) — A
train thundering toward him at
more than 70 miles an hour.
Twenty feet above a creek on a
railroad trestle, Billy Messer, 9,
had only one chance to live.
Racing along the ends of the
railroad ties, Billy lost sight of
his two playmates, who would die
seconds later.
Just before the Great North
ern’s five-car Red River passen
ger train overtook him, Billy fell
to the ties and hung on. The
train roared past, inches from
where the frightened boy lay.
Trapped on the tracks and killed
were Kenneth Ellis, 11, and his
brother, Dennis, 7, who lived ac
ross the street from Billy in sub
urban Fridley.
The youngsters had gone to the
trestle Wednesday, in violation of
warnings from elders, to throw
stones into Rice Creek. They were
home from school for the Easter
vacation.
Red Hair Coming Into
Vogue In Japan
TOKYO, Iff) — Thousands of
Japanese women are dyeing their
hair red. So many, that the-na
tionwide newspaper Mainichi took
up the matter in an editorial
column.
“Except for a limited few, we
do not believe that reddish-brown
hair becomes Japanese women!”
it said.
A U. S.-trained Japanese hair
dresser, Miss Kyoko Mano, ex
pressed this opinion:
“A shade of auburn suits the
complexion of Japanese women
quite well. It makes the hair light
er and softer.”
Ten years ago a suggestion that
women here should dye their hair
would have been laughed down as
ridiculous and socially degrading
— although middle-aged women
since feudal days used dye to re
store graying hair to the jet black
nature originally bestowed.
