Need Urgent for Qua!ifi-
ed Leaders for Scout
Troops

A movement of primary import
ance to the Boy Scout organization
of Imperial county is now under
way, according to an announcement
made today by Scout Executive S.
l.. McCrory, who stated that Il
training course in scoutmastership
will be started i'll the near future.
This training course, which is to
be the outstanding feature of the
years program, is open to scout
masters, assistant scout masters,
everyone interested i'll becoming Il
scout master at any future time,
or any person interested in scouting
as II whole.
Those who take the course, which
has the distinction of being the
first of the KIND ever held IN I'M
perial Valley, and who pass the re-
quired work with Il grade of 70 or
above, will be granted Il certificate
Of gradution in Scoutmastership by
the Imperial County Council. The
taking of this course will not III
any way obligate anyone to act as
master.
Anyone interested il scout work
may enroll as an auditor and get
the full benefit OF the lectures and
discussions, though no certificate
of graduation vail lie given for
such work.
The time required for the course
will not be great. Sessions Will be
held in TINS city on October -,
November 13, and November 20,
and will begin PROMPTLY at 100
p. IN. and close at 9:3U p. m. Ger
tain assignments of reading TO be
done in the scoutmasters Hand
book will be made, and aside from
this 10 other time IS necessary. The
same course VIII be offered in
Brawley on October %, November
), and November 10.
Further details of the course
may be secured from Scout Exec
utivc McCrory at his office, 6lo
Main street, FL Centre.
As the spread of the scout move
ment in Imperial Valley seems to
be limited only by the number OF
qualified scoutmasters who can be
secured, McCrory is hoping that "a
large number of valley men VIII
take up this course with the idea
of training Tor leadership IN the
various troops already organized or
in the process of formation.

everyone did his part. We had good
pitching and our batting was time

Frisch, | believe, was the out
standing player on the Giants and
one of the big heroes of the series.
John McGraw. Giants: ''The bet

to deny that. They won by good
baseball. Our pitching handicapped
us hopelessly. Joe Dug&n and Ward,
to my way of thinking, were the
stars of the series. They are both
wonderful ball players. The only
thing l regret is that the Yankees
did not bat in their winning runs
in the last game instead of having
them presented to them. would
like to say that not once during
the series was Babe Ruth purposely
passed. -
