Low-tar brands'
popularity is up
if i. i. By Jane Johnson
It kicking the habit" seems impossible, low-tar
cigarettes may be an answer.
WAmark f?r. low4ar ci8Tettes is rapidly growing
with 60 brands of low-tar cigarettes available on the mar
ket today.
At UNL, cigarette brands carried have remained the
same during the past year, but low-tar brands are growing
in popularity.
Gene Meerkatz, vending systems manager, said Merit
has become a big seller along with Marlboro Lights in the
vending machines.
Frank Kuhn, assistant director of Nebraska Union
operations said Kent. Golden Lights and Marlboro seem
to be the biggest seller at the union north desk.
The vending machines are stocked according to
brand popularity at each location. The machine stock is
rotated periodically with slow sellers being replaced by
new brands or brands that sell.
Meerkatz said many brands may not be available at
a certain location due to a small demand for them.
Cigarette vending machines have slots for only 30 brands,
some of which may be used for varieties such as menthol,
100 millimeter, or low-tar of one brand.
The machine on campus which sells the most is in the
South Crib in the Union, Meerkatz said.
If there is a big demand for a certain brand, both
Kuhn and Meerkatz agreed they would try stocking it,
but the demand would have to be large.
"Products have changed considerably since several
years ago. I can remember when brands like Marlboro,
Old Gold, Winston and a couple others were the big sellers
that had all the business,' said Kuhn.
The latest figures of total vending sales show that low
tar cigarettes account for 16.6 percent of the sales, second
to Marlboro, Winston, Old Gold and the like at 34.8
percent of the sales.
Kuhn and Meerkatz agreed that total . cigarette
sales have decreased 5 percent in the last few years. They
believe it is because people smoke less. V

Garland Bare, M.D., of the University Health Center,
said the number of persons attending the stop-smoking
clinics offered by the health center has decreased. There
were no clinics this semester. Bare said most of those
attending past clinics have been older students.
"I feel the smoking tendency is less and has gotten that
way in the past three years. Smoking is less socially
acceptable now than before," Bare said.
