IfEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON.

The report showed a steady gain in membership during 1942, but also pointed out problems of adult volunteer leadership con fronting it. Many Scout and Cub leaders have gone into the armed services in recent months and others have left the com munity for work in war related activities. New men are being recruited as rapidly as possible to fill these vacancies so that the full value of the Boy Scout program ry be realized by the boys pf Medford.
