FAMOUS CHEERS THAT WILL GO
DOWN IN HOSTORY.
“They shall not pass” may sound
like a professor’s defiant battle-cry
after a harrowing day’s work in
checking mid-term exam papers....
but even the youngest “Frosh” knows
what the slogan really stands for.
“Hold ’em, Yale!”. ... seems battle-
worn and slightly impotent last year
. . . .but those who know what’s what
say there’s still a world of pep in it
.... and maybe this year will prove
it!
“Check that Crimson Tide” was the
frantic yell inspired by Alabama’s
ruthlessness in piling up points with
the rapidity of an adding machine.
Certainly, a yell worthy of the inspir
ation!
But as you will notice, all these, and
other famous cheers, are defensive. .
uttered with a prayer on the lips
of a smile.
So when a new cheer is born that
fellows actually yell with exultation
... .it makes an interesting bit of
news. . . . And particularly to smokers, i
this new cheer sounds the Marseil-
throat irritation.
You can enjoy them morning, noon,
and night” may sound a trifle long,
but it is certainly short and sweet
to the man who likes to smoke two
or three packs a day without having
his tongue and throat remind him of
it.
It is a slogan that expresses the
joytfulness of Old Gold Cigarettes,
that new and popular brand that’s as
smooth as cream to the throat, yet
thrills like a soft kiss in the moon
light.... A Cigarette that hasn’t a
Cough in a Carload.

But what fun for the horse and
cadet corps when poor little Jimmie
Hooks and Skinny Ketterson mount
the leather seat. It is a good thing
they are yell leaders, for they will
probably need to yell for help before
the horse they have been riding-at
has been caught.
The campaign is getting off to a
slow start so get behind those Top-
Kicks and help them put their com
pany in the lead. Many more sub
scriptions have been sold than have
been turned in to the Circulation Man
ager at the last minute before going
to press. The standing of each Com
pany on percentage basis will be pub
lished next week.
There is nothing more gratifying
than self-approval. You may cheat
others but you cannot cheat yourself.
There are many who are lauded to
day who would be condemned by oth
ers if they were known by them as
they know themselves.
