The proposal was presented at a special meeting of the Model C ities Employment Working Committee.

Tlie program is designed to give youngsters Insight Into them selves and th e ir environment, to teach useful s k ills . With a plan of "guided discovery" hoys can learn s k ills , |xit them to practical use, and then liave tlie opportunity to teach their skills to younger Scouts. Clunges in the Scouting program came about as tlie result of a three year study w h ic h demonstrated that Scouting was viewed as a m iddle-class a ctivity tliat did not appeal to all boys—p a rti c u la rly those of m inority groups. This brought about changes in scouting programs to Interest and Involve boys In urban industrial centersand to teach s k ills useful to tliem as well as tlie traditional camping and outdoor a c tiv i ties. Troops are organized into patrols, which allow close relationships among the boys and with tlie lr leaders. Pa tro ls also provide oppor tunities fo r older scouts to remain involved In tlie troop and to develop leadershipabi- litle s through working with younger scouts. A leadership corps w ill be organized to Interest older youngsters, ages 14 and >5, in developing their leadership potential. They w ill receive additional training and have the opportunity to engage In more mature a ctivities. The Scoutmaster is de veloping tlie new role of counselor/coach rather than leader.
