Scouting Will Start in Fall

kodlak's Boy Scout program will get under way this fall with new impetus added to the pro- gram as a result of the visit here this week of R A. Apple, Far. banks scout executive. MT. Apple met with several To- cal men interested in the scout- ing program, at ? different meet lngs, and told them that the pro gram, revised for the first time m g years, will be more applicable to Alaskan boys than the previ Nus one.
 Because so many of the pros. pective scouts are working dur ing the summer, the program will get under way after school starts in the fall. The Cub Pack activ- lties will be resumed then too Funds collected in Kodiak last year to inaugurate the scouting program will b. returned to the city ln the form of servlce from the , ational scou ing organlza tion and the Anchorage scout executive will include kodiak in his terri ory.
 Tbere will be no financial drive and the only expense to scouts themselves will be the nom pal annual fee, and cost of uniforms.
 It IS hoped that 8 troop can he organ zed in the ia with the full quota of 32 boys, 12 years old and up. Possibly year from now a sea scout troop can be organi- zed for boys Is and older.
 Persons attending 'he meet ings, who are interested in wor. king on the scouting program, inlcuded Max Folsom, this years scoutmaster, Paul Herring Gene Marian, Jack Hlnckel, Leo Sears Ken Wade, Jake Foley, Bud Koch, John Gibbons, Mil Vokacek, Red Burnham, and Bill Stone.
