Turns on Power
Nine Points Worth
Meet Is 1st Outright
Win for A & M Trackmen,
Season Opener for Owls
With blood in their eyes and de
termination, speed and power in
their legs, the Aggie tracksters
turned back Coach Emmet Brun
son’s Rice Owls in Houston Tues
day afternoon with a nine point
lead.
It was the first outright win for
the cadets and the first meet for
the Owls.
Twice during the afternoon
mother luck played her hand and
twice the wrong team got the
points. In the 220-yd. low hurdles,
Roy Bucek stumbled and caused
Pete Watkins to leave his lane.
Barron Ellis, the sophomore grid
star of the Owls, carried on to
take the first place honors, with
Bucek taking second.
Later in the 440-yd. relay, Ray
Zimmerman ran out of the 20-yard
zone in taking the baton from
Lawrence Snellson, disqualifying
the Owl team.
Dead Heat
In the 440-yd. dash C. R. “Frog”
Johnson of the Aggies and Bob
Neath of the Owls covered the lap
with but a few yards difference m
the two all the way around. On the
home stretch, Johnson was pushed
hard by Neath but increased his
gait to cross the line even with
the Rice runner.
Harold Hall, from out where the
Brays and Buffalo Bayous meet
in Houston, carried off the indi
vidual laurels for the day, claim
ing the 100, 220 and a fourth of
the mile relay for the Owls.
Watkins would have been named
high point man had it not been
for his disqualification in the low
hurdles. He and Bucek led the
Aggies with eight points each.

LESS NICOTINE
than the average of the 4 other largest-selling
brands tested—less than any of them—according
to independent laboratory tests of the smoke itself.
THE SMOKE'S THE THING!
tt’s news! Not the picture .kind —but news of first impor-
X tance to smokers like you.
Independent laboratory findings as to Camels and the four
other largest-selling brands tested—the four brands that most
smokers who are not Camel “fans” now use—show that Camels
give you less nicotine in the smoke. And, the smoke’s the thing!
But that’s only the start of the story! Camel brings you the
extra mildness, extra coolness, extra flavor, and extra smoking
of slower-burning costlier tobaccos. Get Camels your next pack.
Dealers feature Camels at attractive carton prices.
Why not get a carton—for economy and convenience ?

HOT AFTER HISTORY!
It’s Donahue of Pathe
who follows the news the
world over with camera
...with CAMELS!
He’s off again for more of those
exclusive pictures you see in the
newsreels. Below, you see how
Bob Donahue gets exclusive “ex
tras” in his smoking. He smokes
Camels, of course. Only Camels
give you those“extras”of slower-
burning costlier tobaccos in a
matchless blend.
“I’LL TELL YOU,” said Bob when he got
his picture taken (above), “Ismoke a good bit
in my job. And my cigarette has to be more
than mild—it has to be extra mild. Camel is
the one brand I’ve found that gives me extra
mildness and at the same time a flavor that
doesn’t go flat on my taste.”
Make Camels your next cigarette purchase.
Smoke out the facts for yourself. Enjoy that
famous Camel flavor to the full with the
pleasing knowledge that you’re getting extra
mildness, extra coolness, and the scientific as
surance of extra freedom from nicotine in the
smoke. And — the smoke’s the thing!
