studied at Agnes Scott College and
received her M. A. at the Univer

and answers. Others who took
part in the discussion were Mrs.
Martin; Dr. H. Michael Lewis,
professor of modern languages;
Mr. Edwin Shewmake, assistant
professor of fine arts, and Mr.
Frank Tortman, local artist.
Questions from the floor began
a lengthy informal discussion of
the reasons that artists paint. Dr.
Lewis’ explanation was the artist
sprang from a desire to be an in
dividual.
Mrs. Martin told why she had
painted “Hen Talk” in charcoal.
She added that she lay on the
ground with chickens , to get the
proper perspective.
,Mr. Shewmake said, “Mrs. Mar
tin’s paintings are extremely in
teresting, ' I am sure all students
and faculty members will enjoy the
exhibition.” This show will be

Campus Interviews on Cigarette Tests
No. 22...THE WOODPECKER
Wo
'oodrow almost bit off more than he could chew
when he tackled the cigarette tests! But he pecked
away ’til he smoked out the truth: Such an
important item as mildness can’t be tossed off in a
fleeting second! A “swift sniff” or a “perfunctory
puff” proves practically nothing! He, like millions of
smokers, found one test that doesn’t leave you up a tree.
It’s the sensible test... the 30-Day Camel Mildness
Test, which simply asks you to try Camels as your
steady smoke —on a day-after-day basis. No snap
judgments! Once you’ve enjoyed Camels for 30 days
in your “T-Zone” (T for Throat, T for Taste),
you’ll see why...
After all the Mildness tests...
