1. 1. ọccâuchuyệncóthựcsauvềcuộcvượtngục.
Prisoners at a jail in Iowa in the US were trying to think of a way of escaping. At
last they found an answer to their problem. They told the governor about their
interest in drama and their need for creative activities. They put in a request
for some tunnel-digging equipment for a play about coalminers. They knew that
the governor felt sympathy for his prisoners and wanted a good relationship
with them, but they weren’t surprised when he said no. But later, when the
prisoners mentioned the importance of physical fitness, the governor agreed to let
them use a trampoline. Their skill at trampolining was put to good use when six
prisoners bounced over the prison wall and escaped.
