The competing clubs are allowed to record one song of their choos ing, one of Warings, and their school song. The Singing Cadets selected “The Marine Hymn,” and Waring requested “Loch Lomond.” Those two, and “The Spirit of Ag- gieland” will comprise their en try s. They will sing in Guion Hall and the recording will be made in the WTAW studio. Fred Waring, the sponsor of the contest, has long been interested in glee club work. At his alma mater, Penn State, he once tried for—and failed to “make”—the Glee Club in spite of the fact that he had sung for four years in high school, switching as his voice changed from tenor to second ten or, baritone and bass. When he left college, he formed a “pro” Glee Club, consisting of members of his band, which was the first of the kind heard on stage, records, or radio. At the present, he broad casts five nights a week on a na tional network. Richard W. Jenkins, director of the Singing Cadets, has a sister who sang with the Waring organ ization, in 1935—Dorothy Brabel- ton of Houston. At the present, Waring has two Texas boys with him—both from Houston. The Singing Cadets will appear frequently, after the contest. On April third, they sing for the En gineer’s show; on April fifth, they sing for the parents at Kyle Field; on April 14, they appear on Town Hall; and April 22 to April 24, they will take their last trip of the year, with Denton as the focal point. Even now they plan for a bigger and better season next year. at 9:00 a.m. on Friday, March 27, for the purpose of assisting with the arranging of the week following: Prestridge, .; Cunningham, C.

Signals usually had to be resorted to between the men on the tail and the man holding the head as the distance was too far for the voice to carry—so the story goes. The “meal” consists of some twenty pounds of chopped meats of whole chicken, rabbits, and ground steak, together with cod liver oil and some bone-building supplement. A four-foot length of hose was run down the snake’s throat; into this was inserted a funnel whose purpose it was to catch the “goo” and direct it into the rubber hose. An ax handle made on ideal ram ming instrument with which to aid in passing the snake’s entree. Starting with the forward part of the snake, we would elevate each section in turn until we literally rolled the food into the stomach, some eight feet posterier to the head. The procedure we followed is actually much more hazardous than it sounds; were any of the handlers to let go, the snake could coil, and perhaps wrap a loop of its body around one of the men. Cole Smith himself has been twice caught by a python, but each time he was saved by the agility and courage of alert keepers. As odd as it sounds, the python can not break a man’s bones; the death itself comes thru suffoca tion due to the victim’s inability to inhale because of the snake’s confining coils. But let’s not ex periment to try to disprove this interesting but non-essential point —it matters little when a man is dead whether a rib or two are broken or not. U. S.

It takes high-speed photography to “stop” Dorothy Lewis’s flashing blades, but it’s easy to see her preference for Camels DOROTHY LEWIS studied ballet from the age of 4, and her rou tines on the ice com bine the artistry of the dancer with the speed of the skater. Her cig arette combines extra mildness and flavor. ' She smokes slower- burning Camels. MISS LEWIS works out all her routines first in ballet slippers. Many’s the Camel cig- > arette she smokes as she relaxes. "Yes, I smoke a good bit,” Miss Lewis says. "I’ve found Camels milder by far. And with their full, rich flavor, Camels always taste so good.” .he more I smoke, the more I appreciate Camels,” says Miss Lewis at a late supper with friends at the St. Regis. "Their cool, rich flavor is all the more enjoyable because Camels are so mild — with less nicotine in the smoke.” You, yourself, try Camels. You’ll like everything about this slower-burning cigarette of costlier tobaccos. You’ll like that grand flavor — and you’ll like knowing that there’s less nicotine in the smoke (see below). The smoke of slower-burning Camels contains 28% LESS NICOTINE than the average of the 4 other largest-selling cigarettes tested— less than any of them—according to independent scientific tests of the smoke itself!
