Barber Give-Aways Banned in Detroit Detroit V The local Bar bers Union has decided there'll be no more lolipops or bubble gum handed out to youngsters in the future. The barbers say the action did not come because of sticky chairs or gummed-up masazines. "It's to correct a situation that has gotten out of hand in recent years,'' a union spokesman said. The union said free bubble gum was one thing but barbers didn't stop there in enticing chil dren to their respective siiears. "It's no good." the union said, "when evervbody starts trying to buy everybody else's business. It got so bad that one of the bar bers was offering chances on a bicycle with every haircut. A arawing was held each week on a new bike. "So we decided to put a stop to it."

The ban wasn't aimed wholely at the children, the union said, "but we couldn't draw the line." It also prohibits barbers from giving away free cigars to Dad and trading stamps to Mom. Wednesday.
