By THOMAS KABAKER The University's Fresh Air Camp offers students of psychology, so- ciology, social work and educa- tion unique opportunities for prac- tical training in their fields, ac- cording to Prof. William C. Morse, director of the camp. The Camp is for emotionally dis- turbed children-the socially mal- adjusted and the delinquent child. In recent years, the number of boys was cut from 90 to 70. "We found that 90 campers were too much. The children today seem too much more disturbed, and it is all we can do to stop the fights that break out now," Prof. Morse said. Students Compose Staff The staff of the camp is made up of 50 students, both men and women, who are interested in clin- ical work in their fields. Prospect- ive counselors apply from all parts of the country, according to Prof. Morse. "We were given a training grant by the United States Public Health Service," said Prof. Morse. "This grant allows us to pay 30 of the 50 counselors at the camp," he continued, "but the amount of money varies from year to year de- pending on how much we have to pay for staff members. Aiding counselor-students are an academic staff of six, a psycholo- gist and a physician. According to Prof. Elton B. McNeil, the Camp's psychologist the counselors are warned about the rigorous life of camping with maladjusted chil- dren. Groups Assigned The counselors are assigned to groups of about eight children and work with them in their camping activities besides attending classes in psychology at the camp. The campers, from seven to 14 years old, come to the camp from institutional placement groups, de- tention homes for delinquent chil- dren, social agencies, and mental hospitals. Friends and family of of the children pay for as much of the child's upkeep as possible, but additional funds are necessary. These come for the most part from the University and from the institutions which send the chil- dren to the camp. "University stu- dents also raised $5,000. with their tag days," Prof. Morse said. Fraternities and sororities also aid the camp with "help week," when their pledges come to paint and clean the buildings and equip- ment. No Horseback Riding The activities at the camp area the same as those at other camps, Prof. Morse added, except that it does not have horseback riding "because we cannot afford it," and no rifle or archery ranges "for ob- vious reasons." " We do not threaten, punish or moralize," Prof. McNeil said. "The goal of the camp is to un- derstand the child and the roots of his behavior which might, if not prevented, lead to confinement in correctional and mental institu-I tions." "All the campers are aware why they are here," Prof. Morse said. CAMP ACTIVITY-The fishermen above are typical of the emotionally disturbed children at the Fresh Air Camp. Most of the activities normal children take part in at other camps are offered here. There are no rifle or archery ranges for fear of what may happen when a disturbed child has access to such weapons. The Camp encourages group planning of overnight trips and other activities by the campers as part of group living. During the seven and one-half weeks of camp, the youngsters are kept under diagnostic observation by psychiatrists, pediatricians, psychologists, social workers and sociologists. a WA Iowa Merges Departments Iowa State College has com- bined its philosophy department and history and government de- partment into a single depart- ment, according. to Prof. Roy E. LeMoine, former head of the De- partment of Philosophy. Prof. LeMoine felt that the de- partment of philosophy, which offers 15 courses and is good for a minor only, was not large enough to constitute its own de- pa~rtment., bISTURBED CAMPER-Prof. William C. Morse, Director of the University's Fresh Air Camp, "talks things out" with one of the' campers. Care is taken that children are protected from traumatic or non-clinical handling by any camp personnel. The Camp's staff feels that great progress has been made when one of the boys will tell what is on his mind, and what his feelings are.
