Mirage Emerges
On Wednesday night, April 17,
Salemitcs gathered in the Day Stu
dent Center to pain the mirage.
Originally it was a red board with
a tree (laintcd on it. However, in
just a few hours it was trans
formed into a true “work of art.”
'I'he students crowded around the
board and painted fraternity sym
bols and names of all the colleges
and universities imaginable. Some
even managed to slip in the names
of the boys they go with.
This mural adds much to our
Student Center and will be here for
y ears to come. Who knows ?
Maybe this will become another
one of Salem’s traditions.

AMONG MY KINFOLK
My favorite cousin, Mandolin (Hebe, a sweet, unsjtoiled country
boy, has just started college. Today I got a letter from him
which I will reitrint here because I know Mandolin’s problems
are so mtich like your own. Mandolin writes:
Dear Mandolin (he tliinks my name is Mandolin too),
1 see by the college jtaper that you are writing a column for
Marlboro Cigarettes. I think Marlboros are jim-dandy cig
arettes with real nice tobacco and a ginger-peachy filter, and
I uant to tell you why I don’t smoke theiti.
It all started the very first day I arrived at college. I was
walking across the camiius, swinging my paper valise and sing
ing traditional airs like Blue Tail Fly and Death arid Trans
figuration, when all of a sudden I ran into this here collegiate-
looking fellow with a monogram on his breast pocket. He asked
me was I a freshman. I said yes. He asked me did I want to
be a BMOC and the envy of all the in crowd. I said yes. He
said the only way to make these keen things happen was to join
a fraternity. Fortunately he happened to have a pledge card
with him, so he pricked my thumb and I signed. He didn’t tell
me the name of the fraternity or where it is located, but I sup
pose I’ll find out when I go active.
^kankdwe
Meanwhile this fellow comes around every" week to collect
the dues, which are .$100, plus a $10 fine for missing the weekly
meeting, plus a $5 assessment to buy a headstone for Spot, the
late, beloved beagle wdio wtis the fraternity mascot.
I have never regretted joining the fraternity, because it is
my dearest wish to be a BMOC and the envy of all the in
crowd, but you can see that it is not cheap. It wouldn’t be so
bad if I slept at the frat house, but you must agree that I can’t
sleep at the house if I don’t know where the house is.
I have rented a room which is not only grotesquely expen
sive, but it is not at all the kind of room I was looking for. I
wanted somejjlace reasonably" priced, clean, comfortable, and
within easy walking distance of classes, the shopping district,
and San Francisco and New York. What I found was a bedroom
in the home of a local costermonger which is dingy, expensive,
and uncomfortable—and I don’t even get to use the bed till
7 a.ni. when my landlord goes out to mong his costers.
Well anyhow, I got settled and the next thing I did, naturally,
was to look for a girl. And I found her. Harriet, her name is, a
bc.autiful creature standing just under seven feet high and weigh
ing 385 pounds. I first spied her leaning against the statue of
the Founder, dozing lightly. I talked to her for several hours
without effect. Only when I mentioned dinner did she stir. Her
milky little eyes opened, she raised a brawny arm, seized my
nape, and carried me to a chic French restaurant called Le
Clipjoint where she consumed, according to my calculations,
her own weight in Chateaubriand.
After dinner she lapsed into a torpor from which I could not
rouse her, no matter how I tried. I banged my glass with a
fork, 1 pinched her great pendulous jowls, I rubbed the legs of
my corduroy pants together. But nothing worked, and finally
I slang her over my shoulder and carried her to the girls dorm,
slipping several discs in the process.
Fortunately, medical care for students is provided free at the
college infirmary. All I had to pay for were a few extras, like
X-ray'S, anaesthesia, forceps, hemostats, scalpels, catgut, linen,
towels, amortization, and nurses. They would not, however,
let me keep the nurses.
So, dear cousin, it is lack of funds, not lack of enthusiasm,
that is keeping me from Marlboro Cigarettes—dear, good
Marlboros with their fine blend of choice tobaccos and their
]iure white Selectrate filter and their soft pack and their flip
top box.
Well, I must close now. My pencil is wore out and I can’t
afford another. Keep ’em flying.

The hearts of the makers of Marlboro go out to poor Man
dolin—and to poor anyone else who is missing out on our
fine cigarettes—available in all 50 of these United States.
