Grasshoppers Even Come In Pink
Scouts Discover In New Mexico

A hike up a 1,2O0 foot Mesa
was one of the adventures; and
grasshoppers in every color (even
pink are one of the unusual sights
three local Boy Scouts are seeing
at Philmont Scout Ranch near
Cimarron, New Mexico.
A letter from Tom Edwards, who
with Phil Beltz and Gary Rathbun
are at the New Mexico ranch for
a month, gives some interesting
sidelights on the boys experiences:
"It would take too long to 60
through all the details, so l will
just hit the highlights. We. have
been fixing ourselves some very
good meals. Tonight we had roast
beef and all the trimmings. Be-
fore we started out on the trail,
we took conditioning hike up the
Arraca Mesa, which is 1900 feet
high. 1t was really rough climbing
up the side of that mountain, but
the guide said that would be the
toughest hike we will take.
Along the way we saw several
wild deer and drank some sweet
water from mountain stream
One highlight of this trip was when
one of the boys stepped on prai-
rie rattle snake. Boy, that really
caused a riot. One of the other boys
and / killed the snake and cut off
its rattlers and gave them to our
Scoutmaster, Mr.. Miller. An inter
eSting sidelight was dog which
hangs around camp and went with
us. The dog was handed down the
sides of the cliffs. We had a jolly
time with him.
"You never saw so many grass
hoppors in your life until you come
to PhilmOnt They are red and
black, pink and orange ones, and
some have every color imaginable
on them. We are leaving Sunday
on the trail for Ahren Camp, where
we will stay for two days. We
should get some mail there. While
out here we work on segments
which are like merit badges. These
will help a great deal on our merit
badge work for Eagle. That's all
for now. I'll write you a little
later"

Council Approves Request
To Pay For Preliminary
Engineering Survey

How much money, if any, municipal
council will be able to contribute
toward Blutfton's proposed swimming
pool remained unanswered Tuesday
night following a meeting of the
group in the council chamber.
At the same time, discussion of the
swimming pool problem indicated that
a. majority of councilmen are con-
vinced financing of the pool can only
be accomplished by a levy voted by
residents of the village.
The levy was felt necessary because
most councilmen appeared convinced
what funds the town can contribute
will be considerably less than the sum
of upwards of approximately 100000
which appears needed in addition to
the amount of some $4,000 raised thus
far in volunteer contributions.
In fact there was some council SEN
timent that perhaps the entire amount
needed for pool, over and above the
voluntary contribution total, might
better be raised by a levy.
This followed proposal from May
or w. A. Howe that because of the
continuing town need for public i'm
provements, it might be better to vote
a levy for all the money. The town
would assist by buying the bonds
from cash accumulated in its various
funds, thereby eliminating any inter-
est charges.
As tax payments are made, the
money then gradually would be re-
paid to the proper town funds and
again be available for other projects.
Discussion of the swimming pool
project came to the forefront in a
protracted long midnight dis
cussion touched off when a request
was made from the parks and recrea-
tion commission that the town pay for
a preliminary engineering survey 60
determine the cost of the proposed
pool.
Council approved the payment of
cost of the survey from the towns
general fund.

An impromptu meeting of the
church directors Sunday after serv-
ices sealed the doom of the dying
tree. Instructions were issued to
destroy it as soon as possible in an eff
fort to protect the older Elm and
other trees on the grounds.
Clair Fett, who has been in charge
of care of the Presbyterian grounds
and has them in the finest condition
in many years, said that tree re-
moval firm had been contacted. Work
men will take it down just as prompt
ly as possible and burn the wood.
Mr.. Fett said that the loss of the
one tree will not necessarily affect
others although they are very close.
Some trees seem to have an immunity
to the disease, he said.
Every effort has been made in
recent years to protect the Presby-
terian Elms. They have been spray
ed at different times, and fed to i'm
prove their health and resistance.
This is not the first time that the
Dutch Elm Disease has struck in
Bluffton. Less than year ago six to
eight trees along Campus Drive bor-
dering Riley creek wilted and died
Since they have been removed there
are five or six more of the stately old
trees infected by the disease.
Mr.. Fett said that some of the
Campus Drive trees are already dead
and leafless while others are wilted
and dying. These, too, should be re-
moved as promptly as possible, he
said.
"There is nothing that can be done" I"
he added, except to clear out the in
fected trees as quickly as possible,
and 70 try to keep surviybrs healthy
by feeding, spraying, ard watering.
