Hair on the heads of Japanese men may or may not be getting thinner, but the hairpiece business is doing well in modern Japan. "I cannot declare that Japanese men have developed a tendency to have thinner hair," said Kazuhino Ito, an executive in Art Nature, the country's biggest hairpiece manufacturer. "But compared with pre-war times, the number of youngsters afflicted with thinner hair has gained." Ito said he thought this was a result of changes in diet and environment. "In other words," he said in an interview, "the Japanese turned to eating oily foods like butter and meat and this is believed to affect hair growth. They also live under great stress." Supporting his views are sales figures showing the demand for hairpieces.

Fuel shortage possible ATLANTA ? Homeowners in the Southeast, par ticularly in Florida and South Carolina, may face shortages of home heating fuel this winter, a federal energy official said Friday. The price of heating oil now averages about 80 cents a gallon, up about 60 percent from last year, said Louis Centofanti, regional representative of the U.S. Department of Energy. irinririA .South Carolina and "to a lesser extent" Tennessee may face a distribution problem because four or five suppliers have announced plans to pull out of the home heating oil and kerosene market in those states, Centofanti said. About 900,000 homes in North Carolina and 600,000 in Florida depend on heating oil or kerosene, he said. Georgia has only 70,000 to 80,000 homes which use those fuels.
