bodies of prisoners slain within the
compounds often are not recovered
for days.
Hospital records give many in
stances of brutality by the POWs,
One prisoner found dead had been
buried alive.
Brig. Gen. Haydon L. Boatner
said the POWs could have cap
tured the island about two weeks
ago had they wanted to. They still
are forging weapons but the time
has passed when the Reds could
gain control outside their com
pounds, he said.
The U. S. 64th Ficld Hospital
was established on Koje July 2.
Its records show 415 prisoner
deaths—lls from POW brutality,
122 from gunshot wounds and 178
from natural causes.
Gelenger said a favorite method
used by prisoners in killing other
inmates was to beat them to death
with tent poles.
Other prisoners’ threats have
been cut with crude knives or the
ecges of tin cans. Some have been
hanged with rope er wire.
The skin of many prisoners who
had anti-Communist tattoos was
stripped from their bodies by
C@mmunists, Gelenger related.
The full facts of torture and
death inside the sinister com
pounds probably never will be
known. But guards on the outside
say they frequently hear screams
and moans in the enclosures.

Head Aids In
Education Plan
J. K. Brookshire, superinten
dent of the Madison County
Schools, has been chosen as one
of a small selected group from
various regions of the United
States to participate in and help
plan a three weeks Conference on
Rural Education at Teachers Col
lege, Columbia University, New
York City, this summer.
The program of the conference
will be planned with the help of
the participants who will work
together on the current problems
of nationwide concern facing the
schools in the smaller communi
ties throughout the nation, and
who will provide a rich back
ground of knowledge and practi
cal experience from their own
school systems.
Other Participants
In addition to the staff com
posed of Professors Frank W.
Cyr, J. K. Norton, Paul L. Essert,
Paul R. Mort, Ruth Strang, Har
old F. Clark, and Paul F. Witt, a
staff of specialists in Teachers
College and «Columbia University,
leaders in fields of business, pub
lishing, and the professions from
New York and vicinity who are
particularly interested in public
education in rural areas will also
participate.
The increasing interest in the
new conception of the county su
perintendency and the special
educational services it can provide
the local schools will receive ma
jor attention at this conference.
Prohlems such as the develop
ment of the community school,
organizing the core curriculum,
using special methods to teach
small groups, reorganizing school
districts, planning school build
ings and transportation will be
considered; and the experiences
of the members of the work con
ference on projects now under
way should prove beneficial in
dealing with such subjects.
Much confidence is placed in
the solution of these problems
through this small group of able
leaders concerned with rural edu
cation from throughout the Unit
ed States.

that’s how Missouri psychologists
view the panty-and-bra {ever
that’s broken out among the na

At Missouri University, the ex

taking a closer look at the out

campus, it went beyond the lin

It boiled over into the basic
desire for destruction, which psy

have.
What started, as at other col

came a mob riot by 2,000 male
students who swept from the Mis

colleges, overwhelming the 22-

some cases stripping the girls’
rooms of everything they could

Georgia Author Crusades For
Veterans Who Confract Leprosy
By MARY ANN CUSHMAN
On May 28, Georgia author
Thelma Thompson will receive a
citation in her home town of
Thomaston, honoring her vast
humanitarian efforts in behalf of
leprosy patients. Miss Thompson
was instrumental in introducing
the National Leprosy Act in the
81st Congress, which subsequently
passed the law providing for the
nationwide treatment of war vet
erans who contract leprosy, in ser
vice, regardless of the state where
the illness is diagnosed.
it was while Miss Thompson
was gathering information for her
most recent: novel, “Make Haste,
My Beloved,” at the Carville Le
prosarium that she became inter
ested in the plight of our veterans
who are victims of the dread di
sease. Before the advent of the
National Leprosy Act, only New
York, Massachusetts, and Vermont
could legally treat Hansen's which
necessitated long, torturous wait
ing until segregated transporta
tion could be arranged.
In “Make Haste, My Beloved,”

her great interest in dispelling the
misguided fears and taboos related
to leprosy, but displays her un

cent fun to vicious mob action is
typical,” he said, in comparing
the incident to lynchings in the
south. In both cases, he explain
ed, the participants are working
off frustrations.
Dr. Williamy H. Lichte, a Mis
souri University psychology pro
fessor, was a little milder. He
said the basic desire behind the
original action could be attri
buted to the ever-present motives
of sex and excitement—a desire
that motivates adults as well as
students.
. s
After that came the basic de
sire for destruction. Some of this
may have been the frustration
the anonymous expert mentioned,
since many students voiced the
feeling they were ‘“getting even”
with university authorities and
townspeople.
Missouri’'s dean of men, Dr.
Jack Matthews, thought “the in
appropriate handling of other col
lege raids by the press in general
has contributed to our present
situation.” He was especially
critical of local newspapers for
playing up the panty raid stories
from other parts of the country.
T. T. Blewett, acting president
of .Christian College, and @ Dr.
Homer Rainey, president of Ste
phens College, the two girls’
schools involved, also blamed the
press for instilling the idea, at
least in Missouri. Blewett held
national magazines responsible,
too.
Whether it’s Spring, sex of pub

of character. Dr, Starr Harlowe,
brilliant surgeon and scion of an
outstanding Georgia family, pro
vides a scientific and irreligious
backdrop for the plot, with her
abnormal exultation in her ability
as a plastic surgeon. Chaplain
John Phillips, the man of God,
who manifests a sincere belief in
the satisfaction gleaned from great
humanitarian service, appears as
her redeemer, when he implores
the surgeon to utilize her ability
to correct the deformities of a
number of the patients at Carville
Leprosarium. In spite of their
emotional involvement, the young
doctor declines to devote any of
her time to non-publicized and
non - profit surgery. However,
when her twin sister is stricken
with Hansen’s disease, Starr be
comes painfully aware of her in
iquitous bebavior, and the mental
and physical misery a “leper” un
dergoes. ‘
In addition to “Make Haste, My
Beloved,” Miss Thompson’s works
include a number of short stories
and articles, and “Give Us This
Night,” “Doctor Red,” and “Bright
Ramparts.” “Give Us This Night”
was the first novel to publicize the

Looking for a wife? One who
has all those old-fashioned quali
fications — cook, seamstress and
homemaker? Well, boys, don't
despair. Thousands of young
ladies are being trained in the
grocious old art of homemaking
by the Girls’ Clubs of America.
As a matter of fact one of their
number, pretty Barbara Faye
Swanson, 16 of Jamestown, N. Y.,
has been elected “Young Home
maker of the Year.”
She was picked for the title as
candidate from her local girls’
club—one of the 42 girls’ clubs
which participated in the contest
at the behest of the American
Mothers Committee of the Golden
Rule Foundation who decided to
select the country’s outstanding
young homemaker this year for
the first time.
The group believes that since
today’s teen-agers are tomorrow’s
mothers, they should be encour
aged to have incentive in home
activities now.
Barbara is a good example of
what the girls’ clubs are trying
to accomplish. She cooks, sews,
makes her own party dresses and
blouses, and believe it or not,
she enjoys washing dishes! Says
Barbara:
“Dish washing doesn’t need to
be a hard job—one of the things
you learn at the club. We don’t
even try to take shortcuts to dish
washing. Sometimes the long way
around is more fun. We sing songs
and tell stories as we dry the
dishes, and it doesn’t seem like
so much of a chore.”
Members of the Girls’ Club of
America, says Barbara, probably
do have an advantage when it
comes to boys, because they can
entertain their dates with some
pretty fine cooking. Says she:
“I've learned one thing — boys
like meat and potatoes. Full them
up on those and they’ll be happy.
Hamburgers, hot dogs and potato
salad are other favorites. The
best of all is to let a boy raid the
ice-box. He'll enjoy that better
than any fancy dish.
Barbara’s current beau, whom
she describes ag “6 feet 3 inches
tall, blond, blue - eyed and hand
some,” is positively embarrassed
because everyone is referring to
him now as the “boy-friend of the
young homemaker,” says Barbara.
He is the athletic type who en
joys sports, particularly baseball,
she says, and she endroses his
selection of pastimes. Her first
few minutes in New York were
spent writing “Chuck” a letter.
Barbara’s mother has been fam
ily breadwinner since Barbara was
nine, which leaves some of the
responsibility to the young home
maker. Her mother leaves home
about 6:30 a. m. to go to a local
tool company where she works,
and Barbara supervises the ac
tivities of younger sister Sandra,
whom she describes as a “a little
wild” and interested in “differ
ent” amusements such as tap
dancing and baton twirling. Bar
bara’s’ hobbies 'include debating,
collecting records and miniature
dog curios.
Sister Sandra is a member of the
Girls’ Club, also, which takes
girls from 5 to 16. It is said to be
the only organization in the world
with a daily leisure time program
for girls.
Blue-eyed Barbara, who is 5”6’
tall with curly light-brown hair
and a pretty figure, won a scholar
ship of S2OO for any college of
her choice and a complete outfit
and luggage given by Jamestown’s
leading department store as a
result of winning the contest.
She has a good sense of humor,
reserving most of her chuckles
for suggestions intimating that
homemaking is hard work. Bar
bara doesn’t think so. She ex
plains:
“Of course anything seems dif
ficut if you build obstacles and
keep thinking of the tasks as big
problems. But if you take the atti
tude that housework can be fun,
you’ll never mind it.”
See what we mean, boys—

since two shots had been fired in
the attempted hold-up, it was
reasoned the would-be bandit
dropped the cartridges as he was
re-loading the gun. When Tucker
was arrested Saturday night he
had in his possession a .38 calibre
snub-nose revolver and more than
thirty cartridges. Officers said a
physician extracted the pistol bul
let from Mr. Furcron’s arm and
it will be tested, with the gun
found on Tucker by ballistics ex
perts.
The actual capture of Tucker
came about in this way:
County Policemen Allen and
Seagraves were cruising down the
Barnett Shoals road ®n the look
out for the bandit. They saw a
man walking up the side of the
road, meeting them, and he seemed
to fit the description of the man
being sought. Officer Seagraves
said he jumped from the car and
pinned the man’s arm behind and
the officers found the gun.,
Hospital Examination
Tucker was wringing wet and
began shivering when he was put
in the patrol car. He began com
plaining of having cramps in his
stomach and the officers, as is the
custom in this county, took him to
General Hospital for an examina
tion before locking him up. The
hospital reported nothing the mat
ter with Tucker except that he
was feeling the effects of exhaus
tion and exposure. He was then
put in county jail.
U. S. Commissioner J. T. Mid
dlebrooks held a committal hear
ing for Tucker Sunday afternoon
and the man pleaded not guilty.
