No bones about it, Luckies taste better to all sorts of people. College smokers, for instance, prefer Luckies to all other brands, ac cording to the latest, greatest coast-to-coastest college survey. Again, the No. 1 reason for Luckies’ wide lead: Luckies taste better. They taste better, first of all, because Lucky Strike means fine tobacco. Then, that tobacco is toasted to taste better. “If s Toasted”— BALD MAN BEHIND FENCE AT SUMR1SE Dave Fairbanks Long Beach State College LUCKY STRIKE TTY TOASTED" I G A R e T the famous Lucky Strike process—tones up Luckies’ light, good-tasting tobacco to make it taste even better. .. cleaner, fresher, smoother.
