Disappearing act puzzles relatives Haskell joins search for student
By JENNIFER METZ Kansan staff writer
Last night, more than 100 faculty, staff and students from Haskell Indian Junior College continued the search for Cecil Dawes Jr., a former Haskell student and recently disenrolled KU student.
The group searched the banks of the Kaw River, railroad tracks and surrounding neighborhoods near the Los Amigos Saloon, 508 Locust, where Dawes was last seen early Sunday morning.
Dawes is a 21-year-old, 5" 11" male and weighs between 185 and 190 pounds. He has short black hair, brown eyes and has scars above his left eye and his right cheek, said Wylma Dawes, his mother.
Dawes' friends said he was involved in a fight at Los Amigos Saloon shortly
Dawes when picked up a friend,
LeeAnne Nelson, 20, Claremore,
Okla., outside the bar and drove from
the bar.
Dawes' abandoned car was hit on train tracks at 225 N. Michigan St. nearly three hours later, Nelson said Dawes parked the car on the tracks, got out and told her to hide in the bushes. Dawes then disappeared.
Wylma Dawes said she last saw her son Saturday afternoon at her home in Lawrence where Dawes came to work on his car.
She said that he seemed upset about something, but she assumed that it was because Dawes was frustrated about his car. She said he was in a generally good mood when he left their home later that afternoon.
"When he is upset, he doesn't stay upset for a long time," Wylma Dawes

Long-haired men cut stereotypes
Bv Chris Evans
Kansan staff writer
One female senior of quiet demeanor offered this checklist of characteristics that applied to long-haired guys.
"They're usually the ones who are always on drugs or listening to loud music or hanging out down at The Crossing," she said. "I would never go out with them."
The senior asked that her name be withheld for personal reasons. A friend of hers, she said, associated with long-haired dogs, wanted to upset her friend with her comments.
"She's real wild," she said. "That's the way they are too."
may they are so. "But, I don't know them real well."
Some of the high school stereotypes carried over into college, Heim said. But, he added, "The students are not very prepared."
"Stereotypes," said Scott Heim, long-
haired Little River graduate student.
"There are lots of stereotypes. They're
thinking hippie or heavy metal. People yell
things like 'Rock n' roll.' In high school,
they associate you with drugs or Satanism."
"There's like this term 'granola,'" he said. "I think that's more appealing than 'hipple.' I don't know, I guess it's associated with food or natural fibers or something."
But, be they Satan worshippers, head bangers, hippies or none of the above, they have a lot of hair on their heads and it won't be going away soon, said Bob Brown, owner
of The Hair Station, 1119 Massachusetts St.
"The biggest change was in the '60s," he said. "It never really stopped. There are still a lot of long-haired bipple dudes around."
Most hair styles resurface every second or third generation, Brown said. The long-haired look never disappeared. Instead, she found that the remained, the motivation behind it changed.
"It used to be a statement," Brown said.
"It's not so much that right now. It's not an
I'm on this side. I'm on that side' type of
thing."
Now, he said, it is purely fashion.
Elizabeth Whitehead, Austin, Texas,
sophomore, said she agreed.
"It's a kind of hip thing to do," she said. "There are businessmen who have long hair. It's kind of vogue.
"Women probably think it's pretty sexy, I imagine."
David Weidner, St. Louis senior, listed several reasons for growing his hair. Sexiness was not among them.
"It only appeals to a certain percentage of the female population up here," he said. He jokingly calls that percentage the "free thinkers."
As for girls who didn't like him because of the length of his hair, Weidner said, "If they're going to judge me on that then I don't want to know them anyway."
Weidner said he began growing his hair out because he didn't have enough money to

Kansan's regular typesetter fails
About 1 p.m. yesterday, the Kanan's normal typesetting equipment rashed.
The reasons for the crash were unknown, and the system was not running in time for the Kansan's regular deadlines last night.
The School of Journalism provided several Macintosh computers to produce this issue.
As of 2 a.m., today, it was not known if the system would be working in time for Friday's issue.
