THIS week MARKS
GIRL SCOUTING

To mark the 35th anniversary
of the founding of Girl Scouting
in the United States, 5,405 girls
in 391 Seattle troops will JOIN
more than million of their sister
Scouts throughout the country in
celebrating March 9-15 as Girl
Scout Birthday Week.
Better Citizens Build Better
World' is the timely anniversary
slogan which places emphasis
upon Scouting's major purpose
the development of character and
good citizenship.
The incest present the girls
could receive" said Mrs. Carl
Bruce, Highline District Gil |
Scout Chairman, "would be about
30 new volunteer leaders. We have
dozens of girls on our waiting list
but no leaders for them
Since Juliette Low formed the
first Girl Scout troop in Atlanta,
Georgia, on March II, 1912, with
II girls and 2 leaders, the Scout
movement has enjoyed a steady
growth, Mrs. Bruce declared. Dur
ing the war Girl Scout member
ship in this country more than
doubled until it has reached l.
21S,000.
Girl Scouting was introduced in
Seattle in 1927 by Mrs. Harry M.
Robbins, who still is a member of
the Seattle-King County Girl
Scout Council. In 20 years the
membership has increased from
107 girls to 5,405, of whom 1850
are Brownies, 3,067 Intermediates
and and S'ers and 2SS Senior
Scouts, in addition, adult volun-
teers who act as leaders. troop
committee members, program con-
sultants and district committee
and council members, number
1888.

the cooperation of as manly teams
as set at maximum. The length
of its durability will be- set by
YOU, the members. There will be
prizes; however, it will be small
as the prime idea for this short
league is to obtain as much ex-
perience as possible for the COM
mercialized league which will start
in September.
To get the wheels in motion, he
advises five girls who have bowled
together to elect a captain and
send their team entry to him CO
Main Bowl, Inc.
If you cannot find team, leave
your name with him and he will
try to place you on team.
You will not be sponsored. Each
entry should conceive a name to
go with the team. Financially
speaking, this participation should
dent your respective billfolds to
the extent of a whole dollar and
take it from Shewo girls! The
amount of kick you get out of il
/ is worth double the amount.
The date is drawing near sc
from time to time, I will put be-
fore you the various team entries
Try and put every effort in get
ting your entries in at the earliest
date. The bowling authorities have
gone on record to state that ar
average of a feminine trundlel
will be 115!-How about it?

Seeks Larger Sum
For Anti TB Work

The existing tuberculosis
hospital plan will be seriously
,jeopardized if the Senate con-
firms the amount included for
tuberculosis hospital mainten-
ance in the House-approved
Omnibus bill, George d. An
derson, president Anti-Tuber-
culoisis League of King Coun-
ty, warned this week.
A total of S4.s0O,o00 had been
requested by the State Health
Department as the minimum re-
quirement to maintain existing
sanatoria. An appropriation .ot
only $1,000,000 was included in
the Omnibus measure.
This drastic cut of approx
mately so per cent in the request
means that it will be impossible
to provide disqualification for
many victims of tuberculosis dur
ing the next biennium. We can
not afford to take such a back
ward step in Washington, And
erson said.
If Finland and Morningside were
to be run at their present cap
acity, the proposed reduction
would force the closure of the
sanatoria within six motnhs, Dr.
Emil Palmquist. Director of Pub
lie Health, Seattle, informed the
League.
He also said there is today a
waiting list of over 100 tuber-
culous patients who cannot be
hospitalized because there aren't
enough beds and the proposed ap-
preparation would not provide any
money Tor acquiring additional

beds. as for instance at the Nav
al Hospital.
Tuberculosis is communicable
disease and we have learned
through the years that the most
effective method of curing it is
to provide sanatorium care The
modern surgical treatment for
tuberculosis has made the hospital
of constantly increasing import
ance,' Anderson explained
With Increased emphasis on
finding unknown victims of the
disease, more persons are found
each week with tuberculosis in
the early stages of the disease.
When tuberculosis is found early
through mass x-ray surveys and
the victims are adequately hos
pitalized the chances for return
ing a healthy individual to the
community as useful citizen are
the greatest, Anderson said.
Our aim is the eradication of
tuberculosis. We know the cause
of tuberculosis, how it is spread
and how it can be cured Be-
cause sanatoria are needed not
only to cure patients but to iso-
late those who spread tubercu
losis, the Anti-Tuberculosis Lea
que believes the average COM
munity should provide minimum
of three beds per death. To meet
that standard Seattle and King
County should maintain about $50
sanatorium beds These standards
were established after very care
full study of material secured
from the American Trudeau Soc
iety and the National Tubercu-
losis Association by the Leagues
Program, Executive Committees
and the Board
Seattle and King County now
have only 574 beds. If we can
not maintain this sub-minimum
number with the money voted by
the State Legislature we cannot
hope to make much progress
against this costly, preventable
disease in the near future" &C
cording to Anderson.
The county's tax support OF
the care of tuberculous patients
has been set by law at 6 40 OF
a mill With the increase cost
of food and supplies the coun-
ties must look to the Stale fol
additional funds to carry on the
fight against tuberculosis. Ii
was to fill this need that the
State Equalization Fund was sci
up in 1943 for direct grants-in- aio
from the State to counties which
could not meet increased costs.
