The rhyth- mic tug from the other end of the rope — flushed faces — bhstered hands — the hundreds of voices which seemed Hke one — team spirit — perseverance — spent bodies — the urgency — the svi eat — all these spelled tug-of-war, one of the most exciting events of the annual Camp Mack Outing. When finally the hand- kerchief reluctantly crossed your line — re- member your jubilance? — you knew you wouldn ' t care that you were virtually inca- pacitated for the rest of the week. Some of the sunburned athletes-for-a-day competed in more strenuous sports, while others just sunned and watched everyone else. For the second consecutive year the class of ' 58 captured the coveted bat.

Of course, it doesn ' t necessarily logically follow that we kept them, but the annual pursuit provided a lot of fun, from the Friday night hayride to the I Gotcha Banquet Sat- urday night. The proud pursuers also took captured members of the opposite gender to the Man- chester-Navy Pier football game, on picnics, to a Saturday morning cook-out breakfast, and to a treasure hunt. Earmarks of Breakaway week-end were eternally tied-up phone lines, valiant-looking coeds, men who looked like hard-chased game, and a general air of merriment.
