Off with his hair
(N.Z.P.A.-Reuter —Copyright) Athens” Some of the players in Greece’s national soccer team have been given a haircut under orders from the secretary-general of sports, Mr Constantine Aslanldes. He said yesterday that the measure was taken in the framework of a campaign to give a decent appearance to Greek athletes. “All athletes who grow
long hair and sidebums will be given haircuts, whether they want it or not, to give them a cleaner look,’’ Mr Aslanldes added. On Wednesday night, a barber called at a fashionable sea-side hotel in Vouliagmenoi, 10 miles south of Athens, where the national soccer team is staying in preparation for its match against England on December 1, and gave a haircut to some of the players there.
