says: “People often ask me if a professional sharp
shooter can smoke as much as he wants. I’ve been en
joying cigarettes for years, without difficulty in keeping
my nerves in shape for making record scores in tourna

a Camel smoker. I have experimented with all the pop

smoking. They’re a much milder cigarette, and they
never interfere with my nervous control, no matter
