A SURVIVOR of the Bataan
IA death march, who first
started to draw in a japanese
prison during World War II,
is now staff director of arts
and crafts for the Military
District of Washington.
Ben c. Steele, jr., a prisoner
of war for AZ months, secretly
sketched in Bilibid Prison in
the Philippines. His hobby,
which may have preserved his
sanity then, has turned into
a career. Formal training at
the Cleveland Institute of Art,
Kent State University and
Denver University developed
his latent talent.
Mr.. Steele, who now lives at
All South Four-Mile Run
drive, Arlington, was a gunner
on a bomber with the 10Th
Bombardment Group at Clark
Field on Luzon when the
Japanese invaded the Philip
pines. During the fighting,
he was assigned to an infan-
try unit, and was wounded
and captured on April 9, 1912.

death march. During this
time, he contracted malaria
and dysentery. Given no
medical treatment by his cap
tors, he credits a Navy doc
tor, who slipped him precious
vitamin pills, with saving his
life.
In July, 1914, after working
briefly on a prison farm, Mr..
Steele was sent in the cargo
hold of a ship on a voyage
which took 81 days to reach
Japan. There he worked in a
coal mine until liberated.
@ Meanwhile, Mr.. Steele's
priest friend had taken his
drawings on another ship TO
Japan. The vessel was sunk
and all his sketches lost.
During captivity, Mr.. Steele's
weight went from ITS pounds
to IS pounds. While recuper-
ating at a hospital in Spo-
kane, Wash. he resketched 70
drawings from memory. Many
of these we're exhibited in
Spokane, New York. Miami.

On the Bataan death
march, he and other prisoners
were forced to walk 100 miles
in nine days to Camp ODon-
nell, where they were in
termed. To get away from this
prison, Mr.. Steele volunteered
for a bodybuilding detail and
was one of so survivors among
more than 800 prisoners.
In August, he was sent to
Bilibid Prison, Manila, for an

Mr.. Steele first started to
sketch on the back of Chinese
custom house forms which
were lying around the prison.
