Ille Scouting program IN the
Manteo community and it's need
Of adult assistance were topics for
discussion at a meeting held Tues
day in the Educational Building of
the Mt. Olivet Methodist Church.
Coffee and doughnuts were served
by the ladies of the church. Scout
master John Earle presented to
the group, the majority of whom
were fathers of scouts, the need
for more active adult participation
in the local Scouting program. He
stressed particularly the opportuni-
ties for service as troop committee
men, merit badge counselors and
patrols dads. "The boy who goes
far in Scouting" said Mr.. Earle,
''is the boy who has the help and
encouragement of his parents. I"

winds to make their first cruise.
Showing off from the Mante6 wa

and Crew leader Melvin Twiddy.
Troop Meeting Monday
The Boy Scout troop 165 of Man
teo held their regular weekly meet
ing Monday night. The meeting
opened with the presentation of
the colors and the playing of the
national anthem. Practice in sig
mailing followed, using tape-record-
ed code signals. The troop is work
ing towards a goal of having every
member able to send and receive
code. This is goal which is rarely
achieved by a boy scout troop.
Plans were made to resume work
of the Roanoke Island scout camp
Saturday. The troop will meet at
10 am. in front of the church.
Plans were also discussed for the
long awaited 20 mile hike. A ten
tative date of Jan. 18th was set.
This hike will be the climax of a
hiking program started last winter
by the troop. Many of the scouts
have now over so miles to their
credit. !
Announcement of the results of
recently held patrol elections was
made. The Fox Patrol elected NAL
colin Ernst as patrol leader with
Butch Baum as his assistant. The
Indian Patrol chose Tommy Taylor
as leader, with Ray White as as
sistant.
The closing game period was
under the direction of Tommy Tay-
lor.

Montgomery county taxpayers
are 500 dollars richer thanks to
a unique course in landscape
planning and cartography which
is part of the curriculum at Rich
ard Montgomery High School.
The three-year course, which
was inaugurated in 1916, paid
dividends when senior students
drew up the engineering plan for
the new wing to be constructed at
RMFIS and supervised the trans
planting of the existing shrub
berry for $500 less than the con-
tractors estimate.
Since 1851 the cartography
course has been sponsored by the
Army Map Service which pro-
vide all of the materials used
and offers jobs to the students
who complete the course and pass
the appropriate Civil Service ex-
animation.
The high standards reach
ed by the students have
caused the Army Map Serv-
ice to offer jobs to 1856 per
cent of graduates. Three
boys, entering the Army from
school, were commissioned as
instructors at the Fort Bel
vOir Army Engineering
school.
The landscape planning study,
unique in America, is under the
supervision of landscape architect
Mrs. Winona Reed who has been
with the school for u years. Mrs.
Reed studied cartography at the
Army Map Service headquarters
in order to qualify as an instruc-
tor in mapmaking.
Tenth-graders start off by
learning lettering, simple draft
ing, and the principles of land
scaping. AS they advance through
the three-year program, which
comprises Is hours per week for
the first two years and 20 hours
in the final year, the agenda be-
comes more complicated. The stu
dents learn road building, the op-
Grafton of earth-moving machin-
cry, mapmaking from aerial phot
cry, mapmaking from aerial
photographs, botany as related to
landscape gardening, and a
myriad of other related subjects.
Apart from the theoretical
work, students are given the
chance to help the community.
Three years agQ, the senior boys
remodelled and landscaped the
Confederate triangle" opposite
Rockville Courthouse. Last sum-
mer several boys were employed
by the City as gardening aides,
maintaining the grounds at the
Civic Center.
Among projects recently COM
pleted are plans for landscaping
