Scouts Compete
For Membership

Hundreds of Boy Scout troops,
Cub packs and Sea Scout ships in
all parts of America are striving to
earn the President Walter w. Head
Acorn awards before December 81.
Almost thirty years ago Lord
Baden-PoWell, now chief scout OF
the world, took a group OF 81 boys
to an experimental camp at Brown
sea Island, off the coast of Eng
land. 1t was truly the first Boy
Scout troop in the world Lord
Baden-Powell wrote Scouting for
Boys" as result of that 81 ccess-
full experiment and it was no, long
before the Boy Scout movement
spread around the world. The
'acorn" planted at Brownsea Is
land has been the theme of a con-
certed effort on the part of the Boy
Scouts of America to bring scouting
to more boys, particularly through
new troops
Walter w. Head of st. Louis,
president of the National Council
of the Boy Scouts since 1926, has
agreed to the use of his name in
connection with the Acorn Awards.
These will go to every troop, Cub
pack and Sea Scout ship that is
responsible for the formation and
registration of a new group in
scouting before the end of the year.
In addition there are Acorn Award
buttons for all individuals who are
responsible for encouraging boys to
get into the game of scouting.
There are $4,000 scout troops in
the United States.
Several new troops are in the
process of organization throughout
the. Imperial Yuma council and
many acorn award buttons have al
ready been presented to boys who
have recruited new scouts.

tie, especially in light of the hare
time which Mitchell had in defeat
ing Deane Judd yesterday. Always
one to force the favorites to the limit
Judd took rs set from Mitchell

despite the 60 score of the third
set, Mitchell never was permitted te
ease up.
While Welsh and Latona are IA

Welsh and McElvenny should get
their Severest test in the doubles
