Cause: Boring Class
By DICK COFFEY
Staff Writer
The favorite pastime of the col-
liege students seems to be that of
"doodling" on desks. It's amazing
how these etchings can be de
veloped from a small mark to
practically a ditch.
To begin with, there is the stu
one often can spy the faint out
line of crib notes (for shame).
Wise up cribbers, notes are ter
ribly difficult to read on marked
up desks, unless you' have an
unusually good set of peekers.
Results from a recent poll show
that students are mainly bored
with the lc:ture. Of course tnere

Just failed; consequently his
mind drifts from the lecture and
he helps to develop this line by
breaking the finish on the desk
and perhaps blackening it up to
some extent.
Then the real "doodler" comes
in and finds the lecture somewhat
boring, so he casually takes out

Chesterfields. For six months a group of men and women
smoked only ChesterfieId-10 to 40 a day their normal amount.
45 percent of the group have smoked Chesterfields from one to

At the beginning and end of the six-months, each smoker was
given a thorough examination including X-rays, and covering
the sinuses, nose, ears and throat After these examinations,
the medical specialist stated . . .
