Plans For Boy Scout
Camp Announced

Scout Executive B. j. Hagedorn,
announced yesterday that at recent
meeting of the executive committee
of the Washington Area Council,
which has jurisdiction over all Boy
Scout Troops in Washington, Fulton
and part of Franklin counties, plans
were outlined for the Councils 1915
camping program.
Unlike last year, when separate
camp sites were set up one site
for Troops from Washington Coun-
ty and another site for Troops from
Franklin and Fulton counties-there
will be one central camping reserva-
ton this year, located at Cowans
Gap. The reservation is about 80
miles from Hagerstown, has ample
water facilities and is ideal for a
Scout campsite.
Another new feature this year,
will be the emphasis on camping by
Troops, instead of, as in the past, by
individual registration.
Scout Executive Hagedorn will act
as camp director and will have an
adequate staff of Scouters and Senior
Scouts. New and modern camping
equipment has been purchased by
the Council for use at the reservation
and series of menus, providing APP
petizing and well balanced meals,
have already been worked out.
Provisions will be made for Scout
Troops, with their adult leaders, to:
~ spend a week in camp, using
their own equipment, cooking their
own meals, working out their own
program, but having the use and
benefit of facilities provided by the
Council, SUCH as first aid station, and
water front activities The cost for
this plan will be fifty cents per boy.
(2) spend a week in camp, using
their own tentage, but eating in the
reservation dining hall and using all
the Council facilities. The cost for
this plan will be $500 per boy.
(3) spend week in camp using
all the council facilities, including
tentage, and eating in the reserva-
ton dining hall. The cost for this
plan will be $3.50 per boy.
In addition to the above plans, ar
rangements may also be made for
individual Scouts or groups of Scouts
from any Troop, without adult
leadership, to spend a week at the
reservation, with everything suppl
ed, including meals. The cost for this
plan will be SO for the week.
The reservation will open July 9th
for six weeks and accommodations
will be available for 100 boys each
week.

Co-Founder of VIEW
Has Passed Away

John Malloy, whose name will be
perpetuated as one of the founders
of the Veterans of Foreign Wars of
the United States, died on January
81, 1945. He was also a founder
and charter member of Post 1853,
Columbus, Ohio. Mr.. Malloy was
one of the original group of thirteen
men who met in Columbus on Sep
TENDER q, 1899, to organize the
American Veterans of Foreign Serv-
ice.
The organization subsequently
merged with two other veteran So
cieties to form the Veterans of For
eign Wars of the United States. The
founding chapter was known as
Camp Lawton No. l. From that be-
ginning the membership has grown
to million members, including men
who have served in every expedition
in which United States military bod
les have participated since 1898.
The Hagerstown Chapter, William
D. Byron Post No. 1886, was organi-
lied in March, 1912, with AZ mem
bers. Since that time its member
ship has increased over 500 per cent,
with many of its members having
served, or now serving, on every
front where United States Armed
Forces are fighting.
With the death of Mr.. Malloy, the
known survivors of the original or
ganization are: Bert ]. DuRant,
George Kelley, James c. Putnam,
James Romans and Walker Wad-
ington

Then he went about carrying a

arouse some signs of interest in him,
Diaghilcff took him from the asylum
to watch ballet performance in 1929.
Nijinsky'S reaction was 10 snort.
Then another attempt was made by
Paul Claudel, at one time French
Ambassador TO the United States.
Nijinsky had some talent as painter,
and Claudel suggested that some art
material be left in his room. Sure
enough, Nijinsky began painting few.
erishly. Although strange and Somber
in quality, his painting showed artistic
merit. But that interest died out too.
Romola never forsook him. Soon
the wealth which Nijinsky had ac-
cumulated 6windled to nothing. Then
Romola wrote her husbands S life story
which became a best seller-and she

sulin shock treatment for the
insane, 10 make a trip 10 Switzerland
from the United States in 1889.
The treatment is dangerous and
delicate. and only trained physician
can handle IL.
According TO DR.. Sakel, who is now
practiCing in New York, after three
or four injections, Nijinsky showed a
marked Improvement. His outbreaks
OF violence stopped and he began to
recognize people. And the first per
son he recognized was his wife
Romola. 1t was a due reward for her
boundless devotion. He also began TO
show interest in music and actually
attempted a few dance steps.
Unfortunately, the treatments that
usually take months, had to be cut
short after four weeks. War broke
out, and DR.. Sakel had to return to
the United States Immediately. Never.
theless, Nijinsky improved.
A stout and bald small gentleman
and no more the athletic youth of a
generation ago, Nijinsky appeared
sound enough so that Romola could
take him 10 Budapest where they
lived with Emile Markus, now a
stately lady in her eighties.
But the lack of further treatment
ended the period of lucidity Accord

Nijinsky had a relapse and had TO be

he was caught in the tentacles of the

cuse, the reports say, the Nazis
liquidated all the inmates of the
sylum-including Nijinsky.
