Blip-Blip, N.C. The anti-smoking campaigners do not intend to relax. They will monitor the screens for any attempt by cigarette firms to slip the names of their brands onto TV. Tobacco and broadcasting executives vow that that will never happen.

One hint of things to come: Reynolds will underwrite its first big sports event, an $80,000 bowling tournament called the Winston-Salem Classic, which will be televised Feb. 20 by ABC. While non-tobacco firms will sponsor the show, the words "Winston" and "Salem" certainly will be mentioned. If other manufacturers pick up the idea, there could be a Pall Mall golf tournament, or a Viceroy auto sweepstakes...
