Basic Course
Taken From
Required Study
Basic 101 has been elimi
nated from the required
curricula of the college and
will now be offered as an elec
tive along- with several other
basic courses, said J. R. Bertrand,
Dean of the Basic Division.
Entering students next fall will
take a series of tests to determine
their interests, achievements, apti
tudes and personalities. After com
pleting these tests, students may
choose the electives that will be
most beneficial to them, Bertrand
said.
The new plan is a move to help
students in choosing thej^- voca
tions and was introduced by the
deans of the various schools. The
plan will be executed in the three
following steps':
1. Determination of the students’
needs.
2. Study of the vocations and
opportunities.
3. Correlation of the first two
steps.
The curricula in every school
will have space for two elective
basic courses, but courses will be
optional to the students, Bertrand
stated.
Freshmen next fall will be re
quired to meet assembly every
week for about a month to heqr
outstanding speakers and an
nouncements which concern them.

J. Paul Sheedy* Switched to Wildrool Cream-Oil
Test
Because He Flunked The Finger-Nail
POOR PAUL fcdt clown under when his girl said, "Your sloppy hair kang.uuinj
our friendship. Never pouch your arms around me again until you higli tail it to
a toilet goods counter for some Wildroot Cream-Oil. Contains Lanolin. Non-
alcholic. Relieves annoying dryness. Removes loose, ugly (iUii
dandruff. Grooms the hair. Helps you pass the Finger-Nail
Test. Get it or you’ll kangaroo the day!” Sheedy tried Wildroot
Cream-Oil and now all the girls are hopped up about him.
Better reach in your pocket for 294 and buy Wildroot Cream-
Oil in either bottle or tube. You kangarong cause it puts real
punch into your social life. Ask for it on your hair at any
barber shop too, and get a jump ahead of all the other guys 1

Why? Luckies are made better to taste better. And,
what’s more, Luckies are made of fine tobacco.
L.S./M.F.T.—Lucky Strike Means Fine Tobacco.
