Another meeting Sutley an nounced yesterday was that of the YMCA’s luncheon committee at noon today in the “Y.” Warren n>- jean spearow “Evenin' folks, how y’all?” Kay Kyser’s distinct southern accent is a natural product of Rocky Mount, North Carolina, where as a youngster ho displayed the same energy that keeps him on the go 1G out of every 24 hours. His pranks and escapades as a boy are indelibly, and perhaps painful’y, inscribed in the annals I of Rocky Mount. There was no edifice, no construction, from which Kay and his cohorts didn’t suffer some kind of bruising fail in their youthful investigations. Prankster Hardly a week went by that Kay’3 mother didn’t receive a call to "come and get her boy’’ who had either accidentally broken a win dow, fallen off a roof, or done something equally destructive in an adolescent way. It worried the family because little Kay (christened James Kern Kyser) was the only one of the children who couldn't carry a tune, but at the age of five he could really beat a tattoo on a soapbox with a toy hammer. Kay has al ways been fu’l of rhythm, 'which accounts for that "makes-you i want-to-dance” music. Stylist Kays orchestral style was aptly described by a west coast critic as “warm, friendly music, and the keynote is color and contrast; vari ety, change of pace, slow, pretty music, peppy, joyful tunes, senti ment, comedy, and above all, originality.” Campus Calendar V/.VA baseball manager, may sign up for practice any time this week in Gerlinger.

It’s quite likely, too, that if you are not already a Camel "fan” you smoke one of the other four brands tested. That’s why the scientific findingsof the smoke test are of real importance to you. Science has already pointed out that Camels—by burning slower — give you extra mildness, extra coolness, and extra flavor. Now science confirms another important advantage of slower burning — of Camel's costlier tobaccos — extra free dom from nicotine in the smoke! And the smoke’s the thing!
