Don Hazen Retires From Full-Time Barber Work After 43 Years
Don Hazen, a Washington barber of 43 years, will slow down to Fridays and Saturdays at Don's Barber Shop. Dave Krantz becomes the new barber, a Highland High and Cedar Rapids Barber College graduate who previously worked in Bettendorf. Hazen and his wife now live in Ainsworth, where she works at State Cafe. In Des Moines, Attorney General Richard Turner said private clubs with white only memberships may keep liquor licenses if the public is not involved, calling the 1965 Hughes order unconstitutional and noting civil rights law excluded private clubs.

Youth activity survey shapes Washington area plans
Optimists Richard Collins and Max Cousins with high school students Craig Caldwell and Terry Renoux gathered 1117 responses from sixth through twelfth graders. About 70 percent said there are not enough activities, with preferences split between physical activities and hobbies. Older youths favor activities with adults or college-age peers, while younger students want to work with younger children. Proposed programs include a summer recreation program for boys, supervised open gym, street dances, and safety driving initiatives, amid concerns over past rock dances and calls for a youth center.
