(By the Author of "Rally Round the Flag, Boysl" and, "Barefoot Boy With Cheek.") ONCE MORE UNTO THE BREACH, DEAR FRIENDS Today I begin my tenth year of writing this column in your campus newspaper. Ten years is a long time; it is, in fact, what some scholarly people like to call a decade-from the Latin word deccum, meaning the floor of a ship. It is, to my mind, remarkable that the Romans had such a word as deccum when you consider that ships did not exist until 1620 when John Alden invented the Mayflower. Alden, a prodigiously ingenious man, also invented the ear lobe and Pocahontas. Ships were a very popular mode of travel-especially over water-until 1912 when the Swede, Ivar Krueger, invented the iceberg. Krueger also invented the match, which is a good thing, because without the match, how would you light your Marlboro Cigarettes? I cannot overstress the importance of lighting your Marlboro Cigarettes, for Marlboro Cigarettes, unlighted, providc, at best, only limited smoking pleasure. gu rl e&&i clii t1~ ot{ip$pOI/6/1l I mention Marlboros because this column is an advertise ment, brought to you through the school year by the makers of Marlboros. Marlboros come in soft p)ack or Flip-Top) box. The makers of Marlboros come in dlark suits with thin lapels S -except on weekends when they come in yoke-neck jerseys and white duck trousers. White ducks come in flocks. They are primarily fresh water dwellers, although they have been suc cessfully raised in salt water too. Another salt water denizen I'm sure you will find enjoyable is plankton-a mess of tiny organisms like dliatoms and algae and like that which float ' sluggishly near the surface of the sea. It is ironic that these creatures, microscopic in size, should supply the principal source of food for the earth's largest animal, the whale. Whales, I must say, are not at all pleased witht this arrangement, be cause it takes the average whale, eating steadily, 48 hours to gather a day's meal. This leaves them almost no time for water sports or reading Melville. It is a lucky thing for all of us that whales are unaware they are mammals, not fish, and could, if they tried, live just as well on land as in wvater. I mean, you add ten or twelve million whales to our Sunday traffic and you would have congestion that makes the mind boggle. But I digress. Today, I was saying, I begin my tenth year of writing this column for Marlboro Cigarettes in your campus newspaper. I will, in each colutmn, say a few kind wvords ab)out Marlboros-just as you will, once you try that fine tobacco flavor, that pristine white filter, that supple soft pack, that infrangible Flip-Top box. These references to Marlboro will be brief and unobtrusive, for I do not believe in the hard sell. What I favor is the soft sell-you might even call it the limp or spongy sell. I hasten to state that the makers of Marlboro in ten full years have not once complained about my desultory sales approach. Neither have they paid me. But that is of small consequence. Aside from fleeting mentions of Marlboro, this column has another, and more urgent, mission: to cast the hot white light of free inquiry upon the vexing questions that trouble college America-questions like "Should the Student Council have the power to levy tariffs? and "Are roommates sanitary?" and "Should housemothers bo com pelled to retire upon01 reaching the age of 26?" Perhaps, reasoning together, we canm find the answers. Per haps not. But if we fail, let it never be said that it was for want of trying. I thank you. * toes Max shaulman . . . * The makers of Marlboro are happy to bring you another year of Max Shtulman's unpredictable and uncensored col uamn-and also happy to bring you fine filtered Marlboro., av'ailable in pack or box, wherever cigarette. are sold in all 1 Blue D Anderson And Gibson Lead Balanced Team Tomorrow the Carolina Gamecocks meet head on witr a Duke eleven which has been picked to finish high up in th< ACC standings despite the loss of some 19 lettermen. Coach Ralph Floyd who scouted the Blue Devils lasi Spring said that Duke is much stronger than some peoph think and although a few of their key players are as yet un. tested in game competition they will nevertheless be a tougi club to handle. The only two positions which show an apparent weaknes, are center and quarterback. At quarterback it will take some doing to replace th< great one-two punch the Blue Devils had in Rappold an( Garner last year, but Bill Murray seems quite satisfied witt the progress of Dave Uible and Jerry Stolz. Neither man saw much action with the Devils in '62, bul both are very well acquainted with the Duke style of play The third quarterback, Scotty Glacken, who is only a sopho more was a standout in the Spring game. Hie is an excellen runner and passer. The rest of the Duke backfield is the most explosive ii the ACC. Fullback Mike Curtis is a pile-driving runner wh< was an All-ACC as a sophomore. le tied with Dan Reeve; and Billy Gambrell for scoring honors. I)efensively. he is at outstanding linebacker. He is flanked by two very talented men who both havi the reputation for their breakaway speed. Jay Wilkinson i: probably the most versatile man in the Duke backfield. Hi can play any position and all of them well. Last year h< was third in the nation in punt returns. The other halfback Hilly Futrell, rolled up 387 yards on the ground last yea: while compiling a 6.5 yard average per carry. The center position is held by Bob Davis, the only inex -ierienced man on the Duke first line. Stan Crisson an< Jave Burdette hold the flank positions. Crisson has beei che leading receiver for the Devils the past two years. Hi :aught 29 passes for 307 yards last year. Tackle, Chuck Walker is already being compared to Ar Gregory who was All-American for Duke last year. Dann. Lonon is the other Duke tackle. When asked what was the Garnecocks basic offense. Bas replied, "Dan Reeves is our basic offense." The preseason All-American from Americus, Ga. is Care lina's key to a successful season. Last year the versatil Mr. Reeves rolled up more yardage than any other sophc more back in the history of the ACC. As a freshman he wa noted more for his running than his passing, but last yea he proved that he could do both. "Reeves greatest asset is his field generalship," say Bass. "Ie has a great presence of mind and the ability to ca the right play." "Unlike last year I)an will play defense only if he i nee.edl. Coach Bass commented that he knows how much th boy would like to go 1)0thI ways. Behind Reeves is a guy who shows more and more pronm ise every day. .Jim Rogers is only a sophomore, but unde the guidance of Coach Shipp he has improved tremendously His p)assinig has been most pleasing to us said Bass. Thi boy has excellent timing when it conies to throwing th football. The USC backfield is almost4 as equally exp)losive as tha of D)uke's. Gone is the Great Gambrell, but Bass seems t.
