T he annua l F reshm an Camp proved

to be llie greatest success in its his­tory u nde r the capable leadersh ip of O liver Keely and Tom Fisher . They supplied m any activities to the satis­faction of everyone, including boat racing, a foul shooting contest, swim­m ing races, for which prizes were of­fered, and football, basketball , and soccer which were going on all the

lime. Canoeing was also a very popu la r pastime and in many cases was in te r ru p ted by overturnings to the en joym ent of all the spectators.

Each evening was climaxed with a community sing with a group of u p ­perclassmen known as the “Seven Belches” leading the boys. These fel­lows pe r fo rm ed so well, they have been invited to sing again for the benefit of everyone. If anyone d id n ’t have an apprecia t ion of music before this unexpected treat, he surely did afterwards.

Laden dow n with suitcases and b lanket rolls and with a wishful but hopefu l glance at the overcast sky, the freshm en women januned into th ree buses last Friday a fternoon en- rou le to Camp Malollione({uay in M edford Lakes. By supper tim e tlie gremlins were all over llie camp. Yes, I m ean gremlins! T he girls this year were d iv ided into four teams with each team taking the nam e of a grem­lin.

To get the gremluis acquain ted with each o ther and a li ttle warmed up. Miss Fors tner led Uie group—-all one hu n d re d and twenty of them in coun­try dancing and the V irg in ia Reel. T h en the freshmen encountered a p ro b lem —how to make a bed in the d a rk in an unfam ilia r cabin, especially when it l iappened to be an upper bunk . T he girls finally fell asleep to the soft lullabys sung by the shiver­ing upper class councellors.

Saturday m orn ing was another doubtfu l day as far as weather was concerned but the girls hardly noticed tha t the sun wasn’t shining. They were m uch too busy playing softball , volleyball, p ing pong and r ing toss. All af ternoon the canoes d id double duty with nary a mishap to write home about. Saturday n ight d inner was a puzzle to the freshmen when all tiie upperclass girls served everything backwards. Sweaters and shirts were donned in reverse style and the girls walked in reverse to complicate the traffic p rob lem and to increase the china breakage. Jus t to m ake the freshm en m ore confused the dessert— rice p udd ing— was served first as an

entree which had to be eaten with a knife. T he m ain course was eaten entirely with a spoon which proved almost disastrous but it d id save on the dishwashing.

Each cabin presented an original sk it—original is hardly the w ord to use. Tlie one that look first place was a scene “On the El.” Typical P.T.C. travellors were initiated, a j i t te rbug, a flapper, a woman, a zoot suiter, and to complete the picture—a drunk. More dancing followed, with the coun­cellors presenting (in professional form) “The Dance of the Grem lins.” Again the shivering councellors sang the ir charges to sleep i* After every­one was settled in bed the ice box was ra ided by three Grem lins with floppy ears.

Sunday dawned bright a n d early for those who went to church , the others jus t got up in time for b reak ­fast. An impressive chapel service was held out-of-doors with the as­sistance of a councellor choir. A hike was supposed to follow bu t most of tlie girls d id the ir hiking by talking about it. The winning team the W id ­gets—was announced al d in n e r and the girls p repared for the ir hom e­ward journey . Six aristocrats rode home by autom obile—with th e ir fin­gers crossed to encourage the gas supply.

Bou(iuets to Esther Wells and all her committees for ar rang ing and p lanning everything. And thanks to the chaperones—Mrs. Seelbach Mrs. Ellies, Miss M eeder and Miss Fors tner — four regu lar fellows I

After calculating the total enroll* nicnt to date the reg is trar’s office an­nounces a d rop of 753 students u n d e r last year’s total of 1900, b r ing ing this year 's total to 1147.

As compared with 1349 last year, there are now 525 m en in school, a difference of 824. T h e 194243 wom« an's enrollm ent, however, is topped by 171 students, b r ing ing the new total to 622.

In the school of Engineering the n u m b er of s tudents has fallen from 1068 to 499, while the H om e Ec school has risen from 271 to 282, only 11 above last year’s figure. A d rop of 187 students, from 496 to 309, has iieen recorded for the school of Bus­iness Administration.

ff o m e n F nffineers

Because of the needs for women engineers in industry and the short­age of m en in this career a t the pres­ent time, statistics show that there is a total of 17 wom en en ro lled in the various schools of E ngineering here. Among these are 5 Ju n e f reshmen, 11 Sejiteniber freshmen, and 1 soph­omore.

This total en ro l lm en t is supp le ­m ented by the ad d i t ion of several h u n d red servicemen u nde r the Army Specialized T ra in ing P ro g ram with an intensive curricu lum in the Engineer ­ing school.

T he p rogram will inc lude football and baseball games between the en ­gineering schools, obstacle races, a tug of war between the u p p e r and lower classmen, foul shooting contests, table tennis tourney , and climaxed by suppe r in the evening.

T he purposes in ho ld ing th is out­ing are to break dow n the social b a r ­r ie rs existing between m en of the various engineering schools a n d to have the men get acquain ted with the o ther engineering faculty as well as the ir own.
