The money with which the Rotar-
ians built the Scout cabin, was
raised through the generosity of the
Chickasha people in patronizing a
ball game here last summer between
Norman and Chickasha Rotary clubs.
The game ended in disaster for the
local Rotarians, the score being 8
to in favor of the visitors, but
there was sufficient money taken in
at the gate to build the Scout cabin.
The game and the subsequent erec-
tion Of the cabin, was under the
auspices Of the Boys work COM
mittee Of the Rotary club, being a
part of the clubs campaign in that
branch of its service.
Cabin is Finished.
The Scout cabin is being finished
today. It was built under the di-
rection Of Rotarian Coffey, scout
executive, who in the finishing up
process was assisted by Rotarian
Harry A. Stephenson. They an
nounce that the cabin stands COM
plete, being ready to be turned over
by the Rotarians to the Scouts. The
Rotarians are sponsors for two
troops Of local scouts and intend to
take an active part in aiding the de-
velopment of the Scout camp.
The land on which the cabin
stands, was leased free of charge by
William Stacey to the Scout organ
ization here. Scout Executive Col
few declares the site to be ideal for
a camp. There are wide stretches
of timber where the Scouts may
study woodcraft and get a fine op-
portunity to study birds. There is
a boat run on the Washita river OF
several hundred yards, the river also
supplying bathing and fishing ga
lore.
