The blabber barbers are the ones who think they know it all and want you to know they do, says Jack Eisenga, general manager of the Moler Barber College in Chicago. Instructors at the college in dulge in a little evesdropping to detect and warn gabby begin ners who might develop into full-fledged blabbers. . "Listening to a student's con versation with a customer is part of the teacher's job," Eisenga said. Silent Headt Students also are cautioned against using a gruff voice or talking to customers who just don't want to talk while getting a haircut. Years ago, when a haircut cost a quarter, a barber only had to know how to clip hair and give a shave, Eisenga says. Today the price is up and so is the barber's background of book-learning and experience. "Modern barbers can sharpen a razor or talk about anatomy if they've been to a barber col lege," Eisenga said. Illinois law requires a student to spend at least 1,872 hours in school before he can be appren- Choice of Six Pieces Group includes 18" Well & Tree Platter and Sugar, Cup Coffee Pot, Gravy Set, Covered Vege table Dish and Water Pitcher. GARDROON PATTERN ticed. Other states have similar requirements but Illinois and West Virginia have the highest, Eisenga said. , ' Anatomy, skin disease, hygiene and bacteriology are some of the subjects covered during the nine months. A student barber stud ies the human body, . Eisenga says, because he works on or near your skin. "A barber shouldn't slap a hot towel on someone's face unless he knows where the nerve end ings are," he said. Eisenga says the new "barber science" has been raising the caliber of barbers since : 1930, but the deft touch of skillful conversation still counts. "In the long run a successful barber is 25 per cent, craftsman and 75 per cent personality," Eisenga says. KF Pilot Tumbles 5 Miles Through Air Dublin, N. H.

About $700,090 in Bond Investments Going Unclaimed Washington, April (CQ) The Treasury is holding about $700,000 of the taxpayer's money because the taxpayers haven't bothered to get it back. The funds represent partial payments on U.S. Savings Bonds by participants in the payroll savings plans sponsored by many business firms for ' their employees. Under the plan, a flat amount is deducted from each paycheck: when enough " has been accumulated, a bond is issued. Some workers quit the job or stop saving before enough has accumulated for a bond These partial payments, if not claimed by the employee, have been taken over by the Treasury as a convenience to the business firms which didn't want to keep them on the books. Since 1944, the Treasury has received $746,000 this way, rep resenting 148,000 individual ac counts." Almost one-third of the accounts have less than $1 in them. The average is about $5 and none is - over $17.75 the purchase price of a $25 savings bond. Transfer Approved The unclaimed funds came to light in March, when the Senate approved a bill to transfer $500,- 000 of this money to another fund in the Treasury. The bill is now before the House Govern ment Operations Committee. Treasury sources say there's no danger the transfer of funds will block anybody's attempt to reclaim his share of the $700,- 000 kitty. In fact, they wish more claims would be made, so they could get them off their books. In the past five years, how ever, the Treasury has paid out less than $5,000. Persons who think they might have some money coming can write the Bureau of Accounts, Treasury Department, Washing ton, D. C, giving their name, the name of the firm through which the partial payments were made and the approximate date. With $700,000 in prize money and 148,000 guaranteed winners, the odds are better than in most contests.
