Bow ties, wearer, dead at 75
Two-term Illinois Senator and noted wearer of bow ties and horned rimmed glasses, former Senator Paul Simon died yesterday at 75. Probably best known for his non-outlandish wardrobe, his cameo appearance on Saturday Night Live in singer Paul Simon's stead and his conservative economic philosophy, Simon was also responsible for the provisions that allowed students to borrow directly from the government and failed in a 1988 bid to win the Democratic nomination. He is survived by two children and two step-children.
