and generally meritorious work.
Catherine Platt received a second
award that was even higher in rank,
being second only to the golden eag-
let, the highest of all possible deco
rations. Catherine received the medal
of merit for especially fine scoutship.
Mrs. Richard Emmett is chairman of
the awards committee.
The young lady in charge of ar
ranging this court of awards for yes
terday is an energetic and conscien-
tious young person, not much older
or bigger thai most OF the Scouts
themselves. Her name is Mildred c..
Averill, and she considers herself the
representative of all the girls in
terests, the person to whom they come
direct for matters on which they do
not consult the captains of their
troops.
Mildred Averill is a Virginia girl,
now making her home in Washing
ton. She received her high school
training in Lynchburg. normal school
training in the University of Virginia
and & business course here in Wash
ington. She has an exceedingly deep
interest in the Scouts and all of their
activities, and has been with the
headquarters for seven months. She
also is captain of Troop As, which has
thirty members.
The work that Miss Averill does at
the headquarters is secretarial, COM
bined with the office work done by
the district director. At present there
is no district director since the res
ignation of Miss White. who held
that position for several years and
brought up the Scout membership
from 100 three years ago to 900
Washington girls in fifty eight troops.
The next big event that the Dis
trict Girl Scouth are planning is the
second rally. in the series of four
planned for the testing of the girls
leaders from the girls of the entire
District membership to participate in
the big field meet next summer. The
next rally will be held early in Feb
ruary.
Another big event looked forward
to by the Girl Scouts for the near
future is a lecture with illustrations
TO be given by DR.. Paul Bartsch of
the National Museum, in the museum
hall. The exact date has not been

in the open, pass the ball so that op-

the ball so that a player can receive

Next to being actually able to

important element in the game. To

buttons of bronze, silver and gold are
given for proficiency in these different
Minds of work and play, and during
the present year 800 of these buttons
have been distributed to girls on local
Fairgrounds.
The girl in charge of these activi-
ties is Maude n. Parker, who, as she
says herself, practically grew up in
the District playground work. For
the past eight years she has been an
active worker, and claims it's prime
interest for her personally is the pos
sibilities of the community and social
service work that can be done through
this medium. Although she has been
in Mrs. Rhodes office, handling the
girls activities especially, since last
August, Miss Parker had the Garfield
playground for seven summers of
work. and is proud Of the fact that
two of the girls she trained on that
playground are now play leaders, and
her assistant at the Garfield for the
past three years is another girl whom
she has helped to grow up in the play

girls activities in playground work

members men and women interested

The practice should at first be de-
voted to passing and dribbling the
ball. No one must ever run with tho
ball, for that is a foul. Pass rapidly.
but not SO fast that it is impossible to
catch the ball.

shots for the basket. In shooting bas-
