Cocktales has just found out what it really is, or at least what certain students on the USC campus think it is. Some of the definitions formulated for Cocktales are as follows: "One of them things you see or hear and don't know how to talk about without being sued," "What the Gamecock Social Affairs Editor sees, hears and talks about tactfully," "A chicken's tail feather," "Booze of many sorts," "A female chicken," "The day we beat Clemson 101 to nutten," and "Wise words?" In the definition box, we also found a suggestion that Cocktale writers form an honorary co-ed fraternity, Pi Iota Sigma Sorority. Former Cocktale writers and colleagues sug gested that the suggestors and friends join a fraternity with a rather lengthy name, but we will not go into details. We suggest that the whole kitten kaboodle take a lesson from two uninhibited couples who made themselves rather apparent last Sunday evening about 5. They seemed to be having a marvelous time diving into the reflection pool next to the glass wizzard building on Green Street. We would suggest, however, that the female kaboodles not wear white blouses that become transparent as did the female contin gents of the two couples last Sunday. For all those boys who are 1-A in Men's Towers comes a suggestion from Ron Leon that you deposit your favorite magazines (humm) in the boxes located in the dorms. He will see that they are shipped to meet you at your destina tion if you tell him what it is.

But until now you needed two or more separate solutions to properly prepare and maintain your contacts. Not with Lensine. Lensine is the one lens solution for complete contact lens care. Cleaning your contacts with Lensine retards the buildup of foreign deposits on the lenses. And soaking your contacts in Lensine overnight assures you of proper lens hygiene. You get a free soaking case on the bottom of every bottle of Lensine. It has been demonstrated that improper storage between wearings may result in the growth of bacteria on the lenses. This is a sure cause of eye irritation and in some cases can endanger your vision. Bacteria cannot grow in Lensine which is sterile, self-sanitizing, and antiseptic. Just a drop or two of Lensine, before you Insert your lens, coats and lubricates it allowing the lens to float more freely in the eye's fluids. That's because Lensine is an "isotonic'' solution, which means that it blends with the natural fluids of the eye. Let your contacts be the convenience they were meant to be. Get some Lensine, from the
