First off, it is the only year since 1951 which begins and ends with the Figure 1. Of course, whenl it comes to Figure l's, 1961, though distinguished, can hardly compare with 1911, which, most people agree, had not just two, but three Figure l'sI This, I'll wager, is a record that will stand for at least two hundred years! 1911 was, incidentally, notable for many other things. It was, for example, the year in which the New York (iants played the Philadelphia Athletics in the World Series. As we all know, the New York Giants have since moved to San Francisco and the Philadelphia Athletics to Kansas City. There is a movement afoot at p)resent to move Chicago to Phoenix-the city, not the baseball team. Phoenix, in turn, would of course move to Chicago. It is felt that thte change would be broadening for residlents of both cities. Many Chicago folks, for exampJle, have never seen an iguana. Many Phoenix folks, on the other hand, have never seen a frost bite. There are, of course, certain dlifficulties attending a municipal shift of this size. For instance, to miove Chicago you also have to move Lake Michigan. This, in itself, presents no great p)rob 1em, what with miodlern scientific adlvances like electronics anid the French cuff. But if you will look at y'our map, you will find that Lake Michigan is coninectedl to all the other G reat I .ukes, which in turn are connewcted to the St. Lawrence Seaw%ay, which in turn is connected to the Atlantic Ocean. You start dlragging Lake Michiiganu to Phoenix and, willy-nilly, you'll be dIragging all that other stuff too. Tis would make our British allies terrib)ly cross, and I can't say as I blame them. I mean, p)ut yourself in their place. What if, for example, you were a British workingman who had been saving and scrimping all year for a sumimer holiday at Brighton Bleach, and then when yotu got to Brighton Beach there WOcann't any~ OCan '1 There you'd be with your inner ltube andI snorkel and nothing to do all (lay but (dance the Lambheth Walk. T1his, you mauy be sure, would not tmake you NATO--minded! I appleal imost earnestly to the residents of Chicago and Phoenix to reco,nsidecr. I know it's no bowl of cherries going through life without ever seeing an iguana or a frost bite, bitt I ask you -C hicagoans, 1PhIoenicians - is it too big a price to pay for preserving the unity of the free world? I ant sure that if you search your hearts you will imake the right decision, for all of us-whether we live in frostbitten Ciceago, igujanai-ridlden Phoentix, or narrow-lapelled New I laven -are first and foremost Amuericans!i But I digress. We were speaking of 1961, our new year. And new it is! '[here is, for one thing, new p)leasuire in Marlboro Cigarettes. How can there be new pleasutre in Marlboros when that fine, flavorful blend, that cleani easy (draw filter, have not been altered? The answer is simple: each time you light a Marlboro, it is like the first time. 'The flavor is such that age cannot wither nor custom stale. Marlboro never pails, never rjades, never dwindles into dull routine. Each pack, each cigarette, each puff, makes you glad all over again that you are a Marlboro smoker I So, Marlboros in hand, let us march confidently into 1961. May good fortune attendo our ventures! May happiness reign I May Chicago and Phoenix soon recover fronm their disappoint ment and join our bright cavalcade into a brave tomorrow! 0 1961 M iau Shumman The makers of Marlboro and of the new unflttered king-size Philip Morris Commiander Join Old Max in adding the.r good wishes for a happy and peaceful 1961. Spring's Perky white straw straight from the twenties, looks wonderful with this year's eased clothes and short, short hair. The shallow cloche often has a brim or some trimmings, but the deep cloche covers the hair completely. Brims are the focal point for hats this spring, they have been twisted and turned in a number of ways. Ranging from a small rim to giant proportions, brims perch on the forehead, slant at an angle or curve up and down for lots of flat tery. The spring hats conic in vibrant shades of purple, pink, blue, beige to taupe and, of course, black. Straws; rough, fine or braided are favorite hat materials. Most 'he unusual material of the year is fake Ist patent leather, best in a hat with ire lots of brim. To wear under the hats, haii or that is short, feathered, close to the - head, but never nmannishly clipped The styles feature smooth, side swept bangs and curls that fli cut onto the cheek.

What makes the difference in what a permanent does, and in how well it does it, is customizing - fitting the process to the hair and the results wanted. Customizing is done in many ways. Its tightness or looseness can vary, depending on three fac tors; the strength of the solution used, the size of the rollers used (they come in sizes from small to jumbo) and the length of time the solution is left on the hair. All of these factors can be changed for the permanent wanted. A body permanent will use large rollers and a short processing time, because the idea is to add body to the hair, to give the hair founda- h tion for set curl, to add fullness 0 or a lift where needed, but without (I adding curls. t) Other factors also enter into the t final results. How the hair grows 9 is an important one. On most ' heads, the hair at the front has the most curl and the hair at the nape has least. Therefore, most v operators start applying the solu- I tion to and rolling the curls at the e nape section first, to give it longer M processing time. 0 The curly front hair will come c last, for least processing time or if a smooth-front style is wanted, i it may not be given any curl at all. 'l The condition of the hair itself is t another important factor.
