Because only Viceroy
gives you 20,000 filter traps
in ever filter tip, made
from a pure natural substance
found in delicious fruits
and other edibles!
Yes, only Viceroy has this filter composed of 20,000 tiny
I filter traps. You cannot obtain the same filtering action
in any other cigarette.
2 The Viceroy filter wasn't just whipped up and rushed to
0 market to meet the new and skyrocketing demand for fil-
tered cigarettes. Viceroy pioneered. Started research more
than, 20 years ago to create the pure and perfect filter.
Smokers en masse report that filtered Viceroys have a
3 0e finer flavor even than cigarettes without filters. Rich;
satisfying, yet pleasantly mild.
Viceroy draws so easily that you wouldn't know, without
(40 looking, that it even had a filter tip. . . and Viceroys cost
only a penny or two more than cigarettes without filters!
That's why more college men and women smoke VICEROYS than
any other filter cigarette . . . that's why VICEROY is the largest.
selling filter cigarette in the world!

Alumnae give the Alpha Gamma
Delta's a party, to which the bus
boys and cook are invited. The

only three guesses to guess who
has written it to her.

and write poems to fit them. One
or two of the women read them
while the others try to guess for
whom they are meant.
