CHANGE TO LUCKIES and get some taste for a changel
DEAR ANXIOUS: Perhaps, but you'll have to convince me
first.
Dear Dr. Frood: Can you help me convince my girl that
I’m not as stupid as she thinks I am?
DEAR EAGER: I don't think the col-
lege will let you out.
TO GET A QUICK LIFT, suggests Frood, step into an elevator and light up a Lucky. In-
stantly, your spirits will rise. When you savor your Lucky, you’re IN—for college students
smoke more Luckies than any other regular. They’re a wised-up bunch who’ve known
all along that Luckies taste great. Get the cigarettes with the toasted taste —get Luckies.
Dear Dr. Frood: Before vacation, my girl and I
agreed to exchange Christmas presents. I sent her
a nice hanky. You can imagine how I felt when I
awoke Christmas morning to find a sports car
from her. What can I do now?
DEAR FRUSTRATED: Mother him. To
carry this off, I suggest you wear a
raccoon coat, let your hair and eye-
brows grow shaggy and learn to
whimper affectionately.
DEAR DISTRAUGHT: Remind
her that Easter giving time is
just around the corner.
The seminar will direct the au-
dience's attention to such subjects
as our national strategy to deal
with Communistic subversion in the
U. S., how Communism works in
American communities the Soviet
military threat, education against
Communism, how and why Com-
munism has succeeded and it’s ad-
vances, and the Communist drive
to capture the minds of American
youth.
Included in the program will be
a series of talks by experts in the
field, audio-visual presentations, and
panel discussions.
Speakers for the seminar will in-
clude William J. Sullivan of the F.
B.I., Gen. Stephen Melnik of Ft.
Bliss, Gerhart Meimeyer of Notre
Dame, Col. S. E. Manzo of Biggs A-
FB, Seaborn Collins of Las Cruces,
George Sisler of Memphis Tennes-

TW News Director
Down With Mumps
Steele Jones, director of news
and information at Texas Western
College has contracted a case of
the mumps.
Mr. Jones became ill a week
ago Friday. He is expected to re-
turn to his duties Monday morn-
ing, his secretary said.
Dear Dr. Frood: Most of my life here
is extracurricular. I carry the drum
for the band, pull the curtain for the
drama society, wax the court for the
basketball team, scrape the ice for
the hockey team, clap erasers for
the faculty club and shovel snow
for the fraternity houses. Do you
think these activities will really help
The Handbook in International
Study, a comprehensive guide lis-
ting international scholarships, has
been published for the first time
in two separate volumes by the

These books are designed as
sources of information on all as-
pects of international scholarship
programs.
The price of the handbook is $3

To the Editor:
In the March 25 issue of the
Prospector, 1 wrote an article re-
garding Bill Lawson’s addresses
during Religion-in-Life Week.
In the article, I stated that Mr.
Lawson’s answer to today’s world
problems was God, but I didn’t
clarify the statement by saying
that the answer was a personal
God.
I feel that I have done an in-
justice to Mr. Lawson, because dur-
ing the final Religion-in-Life as-
sembly, when he gave his testi-
mony as a Christian, he made it
clear that his God is very person-
al. I, for one, believe that this is
Bill Lawson’s secret of successful
living, and that his “secret” is
what so many are looking for to-
day.
TW Cheerleaders
To Tryout Friday

imately 15 girls, according to Miss
Hulse. At the school, the girls were
assisted by this year’s cheerleaders,
who are Mary Jane Ferguson, Do-
lores Lowery, Ginny Meadows,
Frances Shanblum, Dana Tubb,
and Miss Hulse.
Dear Dr. Frood: Our college mascot
is a great big lovable Saint Bernard.
He loves everyone —except me. In
fact, he has bitten me viciously
eight times. What can I do to get
him to like me?
Frustrated Dog Lover
Dear Dr. Frood: On New Year's
Eve I foolishly resolved to be
more generous with my Luckies.
My friends have held me to this,
and I've been forced to give
away several packs a day. What
do you think would happen if I
broke this resolution?
Resolute
Officials To Purchase
Lands For College
The “squaring up” of TWC pro-
perties by the purchase of two
additional pieces of land is now
in the negotiating stage, J. M.
Whitaker, Registrar, said this
week.
One of the proposed additions, a
one-acre tract by Worrell Hall,
may be used as a parking lot un-
til such time as the men’s dorm
will need expanding. Mr. Whitaker
added.
The purchase of the other tract
of land, near the new warehouses,
in the center of TW property, will
permit a unification of College
property.
After purchase of the property,
a final approval by the State legis-
lature will be required.

The program is under the sponsorship of the El Paso Pro-

Bohlen to Liberty Hall last October. It is designed to give
an insight into fundamental Communist plans and how they
are projected. •■ — ...........—.....— —

To the Editor:
At TWC a Religion-in-Life pro-
gram was held. We, the undersign-
ed, would like to pass a few com-
ments on this program at this time.
We think that this program is
wonderful for those students who
wish to participate, but we believe
that it is a breach of our rights as
citizens and students to be forced
to listen to someone with whom
we possibly violently disagree on
the matter of religion. Further, we
onsider it the grossest of insults
to present, as a classroom lectur-
er, a man who has no more com-
mand of the English language than
the most illiterate hillbilly.
If it is honestly believed that a
Religion-in-Life program is need-
ed here at TWC, then in the future
these programs should be carried
on in the evening when those stu-
dents. to whom things of this na-
ture are important, may attend.
This arrangement would have the
following advantages:
1. There would be no appropria-
tion of valuable classroom time
for participation in religious pro-
grams. The students have chosen
various courses of study with the
ultimate purpose of obtaining a
degree in the field of their choice.
It is unfair to take valuable hours
of instruction and give them over
to religious programs which are
not covered in the course descrip-
tions. For those interested in re-
ligious education TWC offers vari-
ous courses in bible study.
2. There would be no encroach-
ment upon the constitutional rights
of those students who do not wish
to participate due to contrary be-
liefs. It is too often believed by
those who profess a particular re-
ligious faith that all others either
do or should profess similar ideals.
It is this type of fallacious reason-
ing that has led to violent dis-
agreement, not only between be-
lievers and non-believiers, but al-
so between the various religious
sects.
It is our sincere desire that in
the future the administration of
TWC will take into greater consid-
