CIGARETTE BLINDFOLD TESTS REACH CLOISTERED PRECINCTS

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

A blindfold test for Old Gold cigarettes will be given all tomorrow morning in the Business Department office of the CRIMSON.

Cigarettes and coffee will be served freely. This should be enough to attract quite an attendance without the possibility of the added honor of being put in the academy of immortals between Charlie Chaplin and Babe Ruth.

The testing process consists of tying a handkerchief before the eyes of the participant, and then giving him three or four brands of popular cigarettes to smoke in succession, among which is an Old Gold. The object of the test is to see if the contestant can pick this one out of the rest. If he does, he wins, and his face appears on the back covers of magazines. If he doesn't he is put out of the trials and disqualified.
