LOUISVILLE, n.y. OCl. To-
Samuel Jordan and Carl Robinson,
two Negro Boy Scouts of Louisville,
have received during the last week
the eagle scout badge, signalizing
their reaching the highest rank in
scoutdom. The award was made at
court of honor of Louisville Council.
Boy Scouts of America, and gives
Louisville a new distinction-that OF
being the only city having two Negro
Boy Scouts In the Eagle Scout class.
Besides, so far as is known, Louis
vile now possesses two-thirds of all
the Negro Eagle Scouts in the entire
United States, as officials of Louis
Vile Council have record of but
one other Negro scout ever achieving,
the rank The local Negro youths also
are the first of their race south of
the Mason and Dixon line" ever to
win the coveted badge of the Eagle
rank.
In order to win the Eagle Scout
badge a Boy Scout first must work
his way up to the first-class scout
rating: Then the hard work begins.
After becoming first class Boy Scout
