BOY SCOUTS PLAN
DRIVE FOR $4,000
! Dinner Will Be Staged To-
n night at City Club to
Open Campaign.

Everything is in readiness for the
opening of the campaign Tor S'o'ooo
by the Boy Scouts of the Dlstric''
which starts with dinner at the
City Club tonight. Rev., James l..
Freeman. rector of the Church OF the
Epiphany, will be the principal speak
er, while L., A. Snead. recently ap-
pointed scout commissioner for Wash
sNington, will preside. w. L. Schmuck-
er will lead in community singing.
Present plans for extension are
based upon a concerted country-w wide
effort to reach more boys with the
benefit of the scout movement.
drive for 100000 additional scouts is
now on, and local scouts are entnuSl-
astically striving for their full pro.
portion of this increase in spite OF
their present standing at the head of
the lists.
New Equipment Needed.
New equipment is needed so that
both the Wilson reservation for short,
time, all-the-year-round camping ana
the summer training center on Chesa-
peake bay. Camp Roosevelt, may
serve to full capacity. Each has been
limited in the past as to the NUMBER
OF boys they could accommodate.
The supplying and training OF lead
ership for the 125 different troops in
churches, schools and community CEN
ters in all parts of town and the or
EaniZation of new troops as they are
demanded in an increasing number or
centers have taxed the present ad-
ministrative force to it's capacity.
In place of the 400 boys reached
during the past year Scout Executive
F. D. Shaw stated yesterday that it is
the plan of the organization to make
scouting available to a full 5000 boys
during 1928.
