Off the subject of hats. I was in high school in the late 60's and girls were not allowed to wear pants of any kind to school.Well, my sister and I and a group of girls decided we wanted to wear pants to school AND DID !! We were rebels/hippies..whatever!! Anyways, after days or weeks of getting sent to the principals office . We finally won. It was very cold in the winter in Mass.There was really no good reason not to let us.
