asked for Mars candy bars.
So help us, big football heroes would step up to the counter and
sigh, “FOREVER YOURS/ 9 with stars in their eyes (like the
stars on Mars wrappers).
Of course, when that happened there would be “SNICKERS"
from the fellas standing around . . . like the famous “3 MUSKE
TEERS 99 who were always munching on “MARS COCOANUT
BARS/ 9 But these men never cared who laughed, ’cause they
loved good Mars bars better than anything else in the world—*
especially the extra-fancy “MARS TOASTED ALMOND BAR"
Yes, Mars has been a favorite at Texas A and M for a long time
a , . and we’re moving right along with you into the new center!
Why not come and try one of the 6 dee-licious MARS CANDY
