Prospect Scouts
Try Semaphoring
PROSPECT, June 24 (Spl.) Scouta
of troop 10 took a hike to the aum
mlt of Pimple Head, near Prospect,
June 18. The main idea was to edu
cate the Scouta In rudiments of sem
aphore and morse signalling. Pimple
Head was used sa one signalling base,
while Vaughn's ranch, across a canyon
from Pimple Head, was used aa the
other.
Scouts who bad to stay on the
other side to receive signals from the
Scouta on Pimple Head were consoled
by plenty of strawberries and Ice
cream served by Mrs. Vaughn.
The Scouts (there waa 14 In all,
Including Scoutmaster Heston Grieve
and Assistant Scoutmaster Harry
Ooode) had an all-around good time
and left reluctantly, hoping to return
for more Instructions In 'signalling,
but the main reason will be to get
more strawberries and Ice cream.

Is Easy, Coast Youth Says
AP Feature Service
DE POE BAY A rd en Howard hunt
for octupuses barehanded and brings
them ashore alive. It's his method
that does It.
"I grab an octopus where hit eight
tentacles come together." he says.
"This brings my two thumbs right
between his eyes and the pressure
tnere seems to paralyze him.
"When that doesn't work, I can
turn the animal inside out, but that
usually kills him."
He says an octopua wil not bite a
man or crush htm to death, but will
hold him under water and drown
him if that makes any difference.

CAIRO Youthful King Parouk

some of the benefits of the western
civilization he likes so well.
When Parouk opened parliament

social reforms for the fellaheen, or
peasant, who form 80 per cent of the
population.
The Egyptian government realizes
a higher standard of Mving will in

painful welts on his akin, he says,
but he has yet to be In serious trou
