LECTURES AND ENTERTAINMENTS
On 15th October the School was given a talk by Capt. Klossowski on the subject of Poland. He sought to point out why it is that the Polish soldiers in Britain to-day are so unwilling to return to their homeland. Capt. Klossowski is at present reading law in London, and had come especially on behalf of Gen. Ander's Army to talk to the School. He revealed that the whole government of Poland to-day is corrupt and iniquitous, and went on to give numerous tragic examples. His own son was unable to attend a university because he was not the son of a "worker," Capt. Klossowski alleged. He told us how the Pole is encouraged by the present government there to return home. Various attractive, but deceptive pamphlets are regularly sent to them.
