Council, Boy Scouts of America has Eompleted the biggest year in it's history. During 1944 the Council \rganized 24 new Scout Troops and Cub Packs reaching an all time nigh of 81 units. This means an added membership of over 500 more boys, 8 gain of better than 30 per cent. Naugatuck Scouting has kept pace with the rest of the Council. During the past two years Troops were organized at Saint Mary's church in Union City, Hillside Con- Eregational church, the Beacon Val ley Grange and in Cotton Hollow. This makes the total number of 2 Troops, and Packs in Naugatuck.
 c. Arthur Eager, Chairman of the Naugatuck Boy Scout District IS very enthusiastic over this gain. we are going to keep up this growth for 1945", said MT. Pager. "A new Troop is being organized in Beacon Falls and we should have at least two more here in town by the end of the year. This fine work for pur youth has always been splend- Idly supported by Naugatuck folks. This year we must raise $25OO.0O to carry on what we have started and to reach more boys with this char acter building program. There is a definite need of Senior Scout units for our boys IS years of age and older, and we should have sev- eral additional Cub Scout Packs to serve the to Il year old young SterS."

Any one who has been reading the papers or listening to radio programs has heard what the biggest people in our country think about the unusual service these young boys have rendered to Uncle Sam in these trying times. ."s Since Pearl Harbor the govern ment has made some 30 requests TOT service from the Boy Scouts of America. Millions of Scouts and Cubs have worked and sweated and given countless hours to put t hese jobs through to successful con- clusion. Yes, sir, they came through 100 per cent on every project.
 That is why am proud to head .ilp Q Committee to back up these wonderful boys with dollars, I ap- peal to every Naugatuck citizen to give as generously as he can so that more and more boys will be lnflu- enced toward unselfish service through fearing and living the ideals sof scouting. Whether or not you are personally solicitited, send or bring us your contribution. The NauRatuck News has generously volunteered the use of their facili- ties as the collection center for the funds"
