SCOUT RECEIVES HIGH HONOR
Patrol Leader Chambers Is Presented
With Medal at Meeting for Organ
iation of CoIored Troop.

Senior Patrol Leader Howard
Chambers, of Mortified, was awarded
a medal offered for life saving by the
National Court of Honor, Boy Scouts
of America, at a meeting held in Bur
wells Hall, on Mckinley avenue, last
Monday evening. Chambers, who is
a charter member of Troop 7, con
nected with Salem M. T.. Church, un-
der the leadership of Scoutmaster
Emil Shappell, had the medal pre-
scented to him by Councilman Charles
M. Peck, of the Second Ward. Dur
ing the address given after present
ing the medal, the Councilman advis-
ed the boy never to lose it, and to
value it as one of his most treasured
possessions. Chambers received the
award for rescuing two boys who
would otherwise have drowned in the
B~argaintown mill pond, last summer.
1t is the highest mark that the Ma
tional Council can award. Chambers
is the first boy in the troop and the
second in the city to be so honored.
During the meeting members of
Troop 7 and the Sea Scouts, under
Scoutmasters Shappell and Carlson,
gave a number of demonstrations in
Guiding making fire by friction and
first aid.
The organization of the colored troop
is quite an achievement for the
Smiths Landing section of the City.
Thirty-two fine young colored boys
under the leadership of Scoutmaster
Burwell, comprise the new troop.
The boys are making rapid strides in
perfecting themselves in the Scout
laws and Scouting in general, and
prospects are bright for a prosperous
future for the new troop. After the
organization was perfected, Scout Com
missioner Clarence Davis and the
three Scout Masters present made
short talks to the boys, and the meet
ing broke up with three %roustng
cheers for the Scout officials and
Councilman Peck.
