A veneer of secrecy surrounds
t h o s e underworld activities. For

It would be really unfair to pre

serves no purpose. Obviously, sun
glasses used as a hairband do a
tremendous worth-while service in
keeping your hair out of your eyes.

James Arness played a govern

fellow who got thrown into a

a certain boys' dorm at the time
because he thought he was Davy

the old hair falls in your face.
The po:nt is though, this could
just solve everything, since with
hair hanging in your eyes you
can't see anything (including the
sun) anyway. Therefore, if you
really want to be unconventional,
ion't wear sunglasses at all.
