ly mentioned—mechanical, chemical,
electrical, industrial, civil and metal
lurgical. But the specialty most in de
mand was mentioned four times as
often as the least.

LUCKSiS LEAD MAIN
Last year a survey of leading colleges
throughout the country showed that
smokers in those colleges preferred
Luckies to any other cigarette.
This year another nation-wide survey
— based on thousands of actual student
interviews, and representative of all
students in regular colleges —shows that
Luckies lead again over all brands, regu
lar or king size ...and by a wide margin!
The No. 1 reason: Luckies taste better.
Smoking enjoyment is all a matter of
taste, and the fact of the matter is Luckies
taste better —for 2 reasons, L.S./M.F.T
-Lucky Strike means fine tobacco. And
Luckies are made better to taste better
So, Be Happy—Go Lucky !
