Fifty percent or more of the

trend will be modified to

casts," he explains. This high-fashitrend In hair will not
give an artificial look, however."
Kass, a cosmetics research chemist since his graduation from college 25 years ago, predicts that
within 10 years women will put
color on their hair and remove it
as easily as nail lacquer.
"Cream oxidation colors have a
developer that colors right in the
hair," he explains. "A chemical
substance is combined with color
when applied, pores in the hair
surface enlarge so that the solution can penetrate into the pores.
It then combines with molecules in
the hair which get so large they
can't get out of the hair. When
the hair is rinsed, it shrinks, and
the color is locked into the hair
shaft," he says.
There's one hitch to this
method the color stays
in until the hair grows out.
"It's too permanent, and that's
hat we are trying to solve," he
points out. "The only way color
can be removed if a woman gets
tlred of it is to 'strip' the hair,
applying a chemical substance to
stroy color in the hair shaft,"
fie says. "Ve,want a better solution."
Hair highlights must be protected in hair coloring, Kass says,
and that's a thing that poses a
problem for the chemists.
"Black is a difficult color to
achieve. It. can look good on the
surface but when the light hits it,
the; highlight -- can turn out to be
green," he says.
The

destroyed the natural hair color
that lies beneath, he explains.
Natural hair has natural color
graduations. Every strand is not
the same color. Newer hair coloring allows natural graduations, one
reason why the color looks natural.
There are about 25 skilled cosmetics chemists in the entire country, and the problems they face
are complex, but greater strides
have been made in hair coloring
in the last 5 years than in the
previous 40, he points out.

* A Renewed Lease
The beginning of a new year always brings with it much comment
and a great spread of philosophy on
what the next 12 months could mean
to everyone.
As each new year comes around,
there's time for a little thought and
reflection on the big mess we just
left behind us, and grand resolutions
on what we plan to do during the
next 365.
Everyone has his own problems,
yet they are usually common to all
of us. For President Kennedy and
Dean Rusk to Dr. Dickey and Dean
Martin, each new day brings numerous problems. These men are not
alone. You as a student will face
problems which will at times seem as
though there are no solutions to them.
You cannot necessarily think that
61's headaches faded with the old
year. Most of them still exist. But,
should we call them problems? The
label "tasks" seems more fitting. And,
what is a task? Webster describes it

as "a piece of work to be done, a

lesson to be prepared; any undertakingduty, job, chore, stint, assignment."
What is your task? What do you
plan to accomplish, now that 1961 is
past and 1962 is present? Perhaps
you have made a renewed effort to
work harder and study more than
you did in the past few months? If,
at times, your task seems to take on
new and larger dimensions, accept
this as your signal to apply that old
"sticktuitiveness." Your problems, or
tasks, will not be overcome immediately; at least, most of them will not
be solved that quickly. A little patience and a lot of fortitude will be
required of you.
What we are able to do with our
minds and our hands in the coming
year depends largely on ourselves.
Will 1962 be a success, or will it pass
as just another one of "those" years?
A sense of dedication to your task
will help. You have the answer, and
you have a renewed release.

Sukarno's Threats
Having lost again in the United
Nations, President Sukarno of Indonesia is again uttering warlike cries
about Netherlands
New Guinea,
which the Indonesians call West Irian
and claim for their own. Mr. Sukarno
ordered his armed forces to prepare
for the "liberation" and said he would
give his command "in the near future."
Indonesia has failed annually in
its effort to obtain control of West
Irian through U. N. action and has
'often made military threats against
the disputed territory. But the action
of the U. N. this year seemed to put
Indonesia's objectives farther away
than ever by giving considerable support to the Dutch proposal for

A clock

There may be merit in Mr. Sukarno's claim on West Irian, but
as a practical matter the President is
having so much trouble keeping Indonesia on its feet that the idea of
taking on more territory is a bit ridiculous. At any rate, Mr. Sukarno, who
led his nation out of colonial status,
should know better than most that

AP News Analyst's View:

Reaffirmation Of Faith In Selves In '62?
By J. M. ROBERTS
Associated Press News Analyst

Some thoughts at the beginning of
a new year:
One of the great things that could
happen would be a reaffirmation by
the American people of faith in themselves.
Calm and nonbelligerent but uttercan acly unwavering
a great deal.
complish
There's a lot of talk nowadays
about the younger generation seeking security, lacking a sense of high
adventure and high responsibility to
the nation.
This is the third younger generation I've heard it about, including
my own.
In 1910, high army officers were
saying they'd never be able to make
an army of the draftees who grew up
in what was called the "Rooseveltian
attitude" that the country owed every-lx)dsomething without specifying
what was owed the country in return.
y

Nevertheless, the army of the 40's
made quite a show.
Youngsters pick up a lot of fads
about security, pacifism, liberalism or
conservatism, and spout a lot of
cliches they don't really know the
meaning of. Then when the serious
calls come, to war, to the Peace Corps,
to civic duty to preservation in all
ways of their national heritage they
answer right up. If they are not really
adventuresome, how come so many of
them are beginning while still in college one of life's greatest of all adventuresmarriage? And before that,
how come so many of them in college
in the first place?
If the country was actually going
to the dogs, the S'eiv York Times
would not have carried, on the last
day of the year, seven pages of advertising under the one heading of
"Help Wanted Male," for jobs ranging from $."5. a week to $.30,000 a year.
One disturbing attitude which
does seem to be growing, however,
is that it's smart to cheat.
Sukarno might be able to captuie

West New Guinea if the Dutch, disheartened by lack of Western psychological support, didn't consider a
real fight worthwhile. But it's a wide

it looks more like he is trying to pull

Man In Space Is Top Story Of '61
By TOM HENSHAW
AP Ncwsfeatures Writer

Man in space emerged from
science fiction to become the
top news story of 1961.
The race into space, starring
Russia's Yuri Oagarln and Gher-ma- n
Titov and America's AJan
Shepard and Gus Grissom, has
been so designated by news editors
of Associated Press member newspapers and radio stations.
The big story, which began building up back in October, 1957, when
the Russians orbited the first earth
satellite, reached a climax last

twren East and West Berlin, the
dramatic escapes from behind the
Iron Curtain and the call-u- p
of
U.S. reserves to mret the emergency.
The death of Dag Hammarskjold,
secretary general of the United
Nations, in a plane crash and the
ensuing U. N. controversy over his
successor was the No. 3 story of
the year, in the opinion of the
editors. Burma's U Thant finally
