DUALFILTER
HERE'S HOW THE DUAL FILTER DOES IT:
1. It combines a unique inner filter of ACTIVATED CHARCOAL...defi-
nitely proved to make the smoke of a cigarette mild and smooth...
2. with an efficient pure white outer filter. Together they bring you the
real thing in mildness and fine tobacco taste!

The Price Of Spice!
By RALPH WEAVER
Worry, worry, worry!!
Well, kiddies, here we are again
with another big, big, week!
The orgies started Friday night
when, in the heat, Jones unleash-
ed their innocents . . .
Also many new Inter-College
records were set:
Will Rice: For (great sing
song) the most disorganized
freshman guidance ... it took 6
hours to get the upperclass
drunks to bed.
Wiess: For having 150 guys
refuse to pull their shades while
the Jones girls were on maneu-
vers.
Hanszen: For the jolliest lis-
tening party, led by Kusnetzky
and his nose.
Baker: For the banister record
set by Isgren.
Alpha Sigs, etc.
Saturday night brought lots of
action when the Alpha Sig house
threw their first annual Fall
Fertility Ball. Besides the gang
and their debs, there were hun-
dreds of others on their (censor,
censor, censor).
The Junior Dance was also a
gas! Our hearty congratulations
to Norman, Jane, Gee, and all the
rest of the group who hid the
lifeboats and caused everyone to
to go down with their dates in
the ship.
The Kenton gang, maybe the
coolest but definitely the sweat-
iest, really seemed to have a mix-
and MIKE GEIS
up . . . but Weaver and Nixon
soon had their light meters out
and fixed everything up.
Crop Failure—Please
All of thisa was really great,
but the thing that warmed our
hearts was the way all the stu-
dents topped their weekend off in
a religious manner . .. something
about praying for a crop failure
after sowing some wild oats.
Monday morning broke with
usual brilliance. We, stumbling
through the dawn, saw 22 uniden-
tifiable blobs with the dry heaves.
Things were also jumping at
the Student Center as we saw
Frank Van Orden running naked
in defiance of censorship laws
and new Thresher editor Buddy
Herz trying to compromise ev-
erything in sight.
Turn Off the Rain
Up on Heartbreak Hill the Ad-
ministration talked of May Fete
and played ring-around-the-jun-
ior-high-school-rosy while dis-
cussing a spring delivery.
All in all, a great social week. •
see ya at the Florida game!

ciety) will hold its first meeting
