the "last time senior women get

consists of a line of march and a
banquet honoring the women.
Skits presented at the dinner

tion of lines or parts in "Vanity
Flair," the 1953 JGP production,
and loud cries of "roll 'em up"
greeted junior players when the
actors stepped on stage.
In retaliation the juniors in the
various houses traditionally "in-

With the great variety of clubs

many such groups about which
they know little or nothing. Alpha

The retiring officers plan and

the ceremony officers are elected,

from among the new members,

LOCAL MEMBERS of Alpha
Lambda Delta have decided to
keep the University chapter fair-
ly inactive, because of the great
number of other active organiza-
tions on campus.
Officers are mainly concerned
with plans for meetings and
with answering communications
from chapters on other college
campuses-.
These letters often ask for proj-

ect suggestions or for an opinion
on a change in the constitution.
Also each chapter must vote on
every new chapter accepted into
the organization.
Nationally, Alpha Lambda Del-
the campus of the Uniersity of Il
linois. The number of active chap-
ter's now is listed as 65.
As stated in the constitution, the
purpose of the society Is "To pro-
mote intelligent living and a high
standard of learning, and to en-
courage superior scholastic attain-
ment among the freshman women
on our institutions of higher learn-
ing."
National Alpha Lambda Delta
awards triennially a $750 gradu-
ate fellowship to a recent gradu-
ate.

November 24, 1953

Dear Sir:

To you who ore about to purchase your first gem.
Previously I discussed 2 important qualifications you should consider when
selecting your jeweler. Namely, his "know-how" and integrity. Third, and equally important,
is experience.
It is common to have a young man say ''This is the first time I have given this
any thought.'' "I don't know what type of gem is best to buy." "I don't even know
what style ring will please her most."
These and many other questions your jeweler must be qualified to answer. Often
there is a desire on the part of the salesman to say ''anything" that will lead to a fast
and easy sale.
An experienced jeweler, who is intent on helping you make a wise seLection
of a fine diamond and ring mounting, will assist you with the objective to not only sell you,
but to do everything possible to make you a satisfied customer. He will advise you how
much to spend for the mounting as compared to the purchase value of the diamond.

Seek the counsel of a jeweler you trust, it is the key to making a successful purchase.
Cordially,
Ca~, o

LATEST COLLEGE SURVEY SHOWS LUCKIES LEAD AGAIN
Last year a survey of leading colleges
throughout the country showed that
smokers ini those colleges preferred
a 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!
