Bicycle guys, what road bike tires?

I am pressing my vintage Proctor (753 Columbus, investment cast lugs) road bike back into service as a commuter bike and I would like to mount some tires on the 700C rims that will take a bit of punishment.
Current tires on the bike are 700x20C and there is a bit of room at the front (by the crankset) for a slightly larger tire and below the crown of the fork.
What I am looking for is something that will be pretty cut/flat resistant. I don't mind if the tires are a bit heavy in trade for not fixing flats....
