A successful ping pong tourn ament
a'mong the girls of B. S. T. C. recently came to a close. There was a great
deal of friendly rivalry in the keenly
contested games that were played. :f|
The tournament was patterned after the structure of a ladder, the winner of the contest being the girl who
could attain and hold the position of
top r ung. At the outset of the tournamen t each girl entered was given an
arbitrary position on the ladder. One
could climb by defeating an opponent
on a higher rung. It was possible to
play two sets per week and any girl
could challenge an opponen t an indefinite number of times. One could
' challenge an oppon ent directly above
or two rungs above herself . When
the challenger won, positions were
exchanged; however, when the challenger lost, positions of the two players remain-ed unaltered . Although
positions on the ladder were constantly changing, everyone remained in
the contest at aR times so that one 's
position near the top of the ladder
I was constantly in danger.
Fifteen rungs constituted the tournament ladder. The final first ten poI sitions, reading down the ladder,
were occupied in the following order :
Betty Lehet, Anne Wright, Violet

Out of Date , Says
Editor of Look

American education today lags far
behind the pace being set by modern
science, according to Harlan Logan,
Editor of Look Magazine , In his article, "The Failure of American Education ," he launches a campaign for
the complete reform of educational
administration and revision of present curricula. He asserts that our
schools and colleges, with a few not1. It is very desirable that every able exceptions , ar e habit-ridden and

All you gals and guys o£ B. S. T. C.
will probably be amazed to discover
some of the 'rules and regulations by
which your Grandmas and Grandpas
had to abide. Your are thinking, no
' doubt, that the rules and regulations
of. today are mighty tough , but just
take a peek at the ones the students
or B. S. T. C. used to follow:

until the lights come on at seven.
Many times the electricity is taken
away for punishment. This procedure may be done with the food and
water also. Card games begin again
with renewed vigor or in some cases
with weary repetition. These usually
last until nine-thirty when the lights
go out , forcing the men to sleep,
which is accomplished only after an
exhaustive battle with vermin. Finally everyone is asleep dreaming their
dreams of home and loved ones.
Morning roll call awakens them from
their temporary paradise only to realize they are still in the filthy prison
camp.
William Vought.

Thousands of soldiers participate
in a war , but only a small percentage
ever became prisoners. This article
will deal with everyday life in a prison camp . Camps may differ slightly .
Seven days a \veek the prisoners
stand at an eight o'clock roll call.
This means you must get up at seven .
The men get up listlessly and stand
formation in front of their respective
barracks. If a man is missing, or a
mistake is made in counting, the
camp must stand till everything is
correct. This may mean standing for
hours .
The prisoners are free to roam the
confines of the, camp after roll call.
At four o'clock another roll call is
taken. These two roll calls are all the
Germans demand of the men.
Days pass slowly and monotonously. The men sit and watch the guards
pacing back and forth outside the
fence. Without reading material or
games to play, each individual passes
time as he sees fit. Now and then
they play cards, (which they make
themselves) or just sleep. Time goes
very slowly and some fellows bathe
themselves or. their few clothes if
water is on hand. Othere pms the
time by walking around and around
the camp.
The Germans bring soup at noon,
which is usually nothing more than
water. They also issue one seventh
of a loaf of bread per man. The preceding statement concerns the most
and not the least.
The afternoon is spent much the
same way as the morning only broken by the roll call at four o'clock.
Immediately following the afternoon
roll call comes supper, consisting of
the same soup as dinner only slightly
less.
Around four or four-thirty the barracks doors are locked , the window
blackouts are put up and the long
night begins. The men sit in the dark
on their straw piles and talk or sleep

was able to pay a share of the expenses thereby cutting down the individual cost of'the week-end.
As a source of entertainment and
exercise many of the girls walked
around the lake and played baseball.
The walks gave every girl who was
at all interested in nature something
to see and talk about.
As is always the case, the trip was
a great success and everyone was regretful that the good time had to end
so soon .
