What’s Cooking Social Whirl
To Meet Obligation
The Battalion believes in giving its readers the complete
news as soon as possible.
To accomplish this end, three members of The Battalion
staff made a sacrifice yesterday afternoon.
The flight to Denton to get the pictures taken during
the selection of the Aggie Sweetheart the past weekend was
a necessity.
It was needed in order for The Battalion to uphold its
obligation to its readers.
Members of The Battalion staff and readers of The Bat
talion owe a hearty thanks to Wayne Collins, Squadron IS
senior from Satin.
Collins flew the plane to Denton and back in order that
we could have the pictures.
Without the donation of Collins’ time and skill, The Bat
talion would not have had the pictures of the new Sweetheart
for its readers.
Our deepest appreciation to Collins for a job well done.

Today I begin my sixth year of writing this column for the
makers of Philip Morris and Marlboro Cigarettes. For this I
get money.
Not, let me hasten to state, that payment is necessary. “Sirs,’?
I said a few days ago to the makers of Philip Morris and Marl
boro, “if I can introduce America’s college men and women to
Philip Morris and Marlboro, and thus enhance their happiness,
heighten their zest, upgrade their gusto, magnify their cheer,
and broaden their bliss, there is no need to pay me because I am
more than amply rewarded.”
We wept then. I’m not ashamed to say it. WE WEPT! I
wish the wiseacres who say big business is cold and heartless
could have been there that day. I wish they could have seen
the great, shimmering tears that splashed on the board room
table. We wept, every man jack of us. The makers wept—the
secretaries wept—I wept—my agent, Clyde Greedy, wept. We
wept all.
“No, no!” cried the makers. “We insist on paying you,"
“Oh, very well,” I said, and the gloom passed like a summer
shower. We laughed and we lit Philip Morrises and Marlboros—
and some of us lit Alpines—which is a brand-new cigarette from
the makers of Philip Morris and Marlboro—a fine new cigarette
with a light touch of menthol and the rich taste of choice tobaccos
and the longest filter yet devised. And if you are one who likes
a fine new cigarette with a light touch of menthol and the rich
taste of choice tobaccos and the longest filter yet devised, you
would do well to ask for new king-size Alpines. If, on the other
hand, you do not like menthol but do like better makin’s and
a filter that does what it’s built for, ask for Marlboro. Or, if you
don’t like filters at all, but only mildness, ask for Philip Morris.
Any way you play it, you’re a winner.
But I digress. “Will you,” said the makers of Philip Morris,
Marlboro and Alpine, “write about the important issues that
occupy the supple young minds of college America this year in
your column?”
“But of course,” I replied, with a kindly chuckle.
“And will you,” asked the makers, “from time to time say a
pleasant word about Philip Morris, Marlboro and Alpine?”
“Crazy kids!” I said with a wry grin, pushing my fist
gently against their jaws. “You know I will.”
And we all shook hands—silently, firmly, manlily. And I left,
dabbing my eyes with my agent, and hurried to the nearest
typewriter. © WSO Max Shulmaa
The makers of Philip Morris, Marlboro and Alpine take great
pleasure in bringing you another year of this uncensored,
free-wheeling column.
