Hairy Issue -- Long hair such as that worn by Nick Shultz (left), 22, of Coronado, Calif., has become basis for denying unemployment insurance in the California employment office at Monterey. Ruling was made by neatly-trimmed James Hammond (right), 31, manager of the state office. He says employers won't hire long haired men or mini-skirted woman, so these people don't qualify for unemployment benefits.
