Elvis Presley Fan
Gets Into Trouble
With Long Hair
MT. CLEMENS, Mich., (J>—
Robert Phernetton must take the
scissors to his Elvis Presley style
haircut if he wants to go back lo
Romeo Community High School.
Circuit Judge Alton H. Noe so
| ruled Friday in denying the 16
year-old a writ of mandamus that
would have compelled school
authorities to re-admit him.
Robert, the lone holdout among
45 high schjhl boys who were
ordered to trim their long hair
and shave ofi their sideburns, 1
was suspended from classes' 11
days ago.
In the courtroom, jammed with
teenagers, he annpunced: “I’m still
not going to get my hair cut.”
Mrs. Alice Phernetton, who had
1 taken the case to court, backed
| up her son. “We’re going to try to
get Robert into another school,”
she said. “We don’t want to live
under a dictatorship."
The court hearing climaxed a
six-week row touched off by Har
old Barr, Romeo High School
principal. He contended fancy
haircuts, such as those favored by
rock ’n roll singer Elvis Presley,
could be detrimental to manage
ment of the school. The school
board agreed.
Judge Noe, who, like four mem
bers of the school board is bald
ing. declared: “Respect for con
stituted authority is a lesson that
should be appropriately taught in
the classroom.”
Unexpected Flight to
Chicago iiesults From
Snooze on Plane
LOS ANGELES, (/PL-It took Dr.
| Dow F. Ayres, a chiropractor, 14
- I hours for a 200-mile roundtrip
flight between Los Angeles and
San Diego. He accidentally went
by way of Chicago.
The doctor was returning to his
home in Los Angeles Thursday
night when he fell asleep in the
plane. It landed in Los Angeles,
but he didn't. He snoozed on while
the plane loaded passengers, took
off and headed for Chicago.
It was well on its way there
when Dr. Ayres awoke and asked
a stewardess, “When do we land
in Los Angeles?” The answer was
late Friday afternoon, after a
three-hour wait in Chicago for a
plane bound for Los Angeles.
One-half of the surface of the
moon has never been viewed by
mankind. _
