Perhaps he was ahead of his time. He had the modern kaupeen with universal fit all string!!
Talking of strings........ I remember one funny episode during my co-ed masters degree course.
One very fair, tall and plump professor whom we (means I ) nicknamed 'fridge' (uncle had a white huge fridge at home)
came to our class one day, with a long white string (nAdA) dangling down in front of his trouser! OMG! We were six girls
in our class and had tough time controlling the burst of laughter! The boys were all sitting as if nothing was wrong!! The
prof. finished the 45 minutes class in the same 'avtAr'. Later we started scolding the leader for not taking the prof outside
to tell his condition. BTW, frenchie type u.wears were very much available with nice elastic bands those days and I still
wonder how our dear prof chose that 'stringed beauty'!!
P.S: Uncle was my guardian for two years and I stayed with him and aunt!
