Wants to Sleep in Style
Boo Hoo! Paint Erases Kansas Room Jayhawks
The traditional Jayhawkers that lined the walls of the Kansas room in Watson library are gone. They have been covered by a new coat of light green paint.
"I compose many of the students®"
"I suppose many of the will miss the bright caricatures," said Charles Sargent, Kansas room librarian, "but the new wall color will be more conducive to study than the dark blue that has been a tradition of the study room."
The Jayhawkers were painted in December, 1949, by Pat Bowers, then a fine arts student, shortly after the new wing, which inculdes the Kansas room, was erected. He was selected as the artist by a committee that judged sketches submitted by design students.
Mr. Bowers, also a well-known KU track star, painted the walls with bright yellow, green, and red Jayhawks, depicted the various activities of schools on the campus —journalism, pharmacy, fine arts, medicine, and engineering.
Pictures were taken of the Jaya-
hawkers last week, just before the painters hid them with the new coat of paint. The pictures will
remain in the historical record of the library.
To replace the Jayhawkers, the library plans to place maps, documents, and pictures of Kansas history on the walls—providing the Kansas room with an abundance of Kansas atmosphere.

IT'S ALL A MATTER OF TASTE
COLLEGE SMOKERS PREFER LUCKIES
A comprehensive survey—based on 31,000 student interviews and supervised by college professors—shows that smokers in colleges from coast to coast prefer Luckies to all other brands! The No. 1 reason: Luckies' better taste!
So, for the enjoyment you get from better taste, and only from better taste, Be Happy—Go Lucky. Get a pack or a carton of better-tasting Luckies today.
Two facts explain why Luckies taste better. First, L.S./M.F.T.-Lucky Strike means fine tobacco . . light, mild, goodtasting tobacco. Second, Luckies are actually made better to taste better . always round, firm, fully packed to draw freely and smoke evenly.
When you come right down to it, you smoke for one simple reason . . . enjoyment. And smoking enjoyment is all a matter of taste. Yes, taste is what counts in a cigarette. And Luckies taste better.
We're rooting for our favorite team;
The arguments are loud.
But smoother-tasting Lucky Strike
Wins cheers from all the crowd.
