BOSTON NEWSPAPERS EXALT HARVARD UPPER LIP FOLIAGE

Moustaches are the latest vogue for Harvard men, according to that arbiter of Cambridge fashions, the Boston Post. In an article entitled "Harvard Turns to Whiskers" published yesterday, the Post discloses that" . . . blond youth at Harvard is going in for the Melvyn Douglas trim."

"Boston girls," says the article, "are creating a great fuss about this latest collegiate fancy. How would you like to have a man with a handlebar kiss you good-night?" asks the Post.

A minor sequel to the article occurred when the Boston American sent its star photographer, Jack Dixon, to the Yard to take pictures of the new phenomena. Dixon snared two students and had them pose on the steps of University Hall, wearing large black handlebars. "Thanks a lot," he said when he had finished, "Say, what's your name?"

"Ben Smith, of Gloucester," replied one of the students who, it seemed, was Torbert H. MacDonald '40. A picture of "Ben Smith" appeared in last night's American.
