Camel cigarets were quick to snap up a laboratory observation and advertise: ''Smoke a Camel and notice how soon you feel your natural energy snap back'' (TIME, July 2). Last March, if advertising scouts had been on the job at the New York Academy of Medicine, or last week if they had read the Journal of the American Medical Association, they could have evolved a new cigaret-selling slogan: ''Smoke a cigaret and-keep your fingers cool. . . .

He instructed them to wait two weeks, set out alone up the ridge with three loaves of bread, two tins of porridge, a camera. The porters lost him from sight...
...received from the State of Pennsylvania a much-needed subsidy of $1,188,000. Last fortnight Pitt's Chancellor John Gabbert Bowman touched off a battery of liberal protests by dismissing History Professor Ralph E. Turner, longtime loud and active liberal (TIME, July 16). By last week the smoke of battle had drifted East to Harrisburg and up the nostrils of that old liberal warhorse, Governor Gifford Pinchot.
