SOURCE OF FUNDS
FOR BOY SCOUTS
To inform the general citizen-
17 concerning the organizations
- in Medford which will partlcl-
pate in Community Chest funds
this coming year, a series of spe
cial articles is to be published
on each agency within the next
several days. The Community
Chest drive is to start October
18, Monday, under direction of
A. S. Cummins, chest ooara
member.
. First of the scries, dealing
with the Boy Scouts, is here
with presented,
"Boy Scouts have become a
familiar part of the American
scene. Throughout the country
boys are active with war service
projects and the training pro
gram of the Boy Scouts of Amer
ica. "Scouting is training- for a
way of life, the kind of life
America chooses to lead, the
kind for which her sons are
fighting across the seas. On
those fronts, and on the front at
home, the qualities which Scout
ing stands for courage and
character, assure us of victory
and a lasting peace.
" 'American needs Scout-trained
men'," says J. Edgar Hoover,
director of the Federal Bureau
of Investigation, who has long
been interested in boys. 'Many
men in the F.B.I. were Scouts
when they were boys,' continues
Mr. Hoover. 'Resourcefulness, in
itiative and dependability are
called for daily in their defense
of the home front. These are
the same qualities that account
for the exceptional record for
mer Scouts have made, on the
battle fronts around the worm.
"The program of the Boy
Scouts of America includes
Cubbing, a home-centered ac
tivity for boys 9, 10 and 11 years
of age, Boy Scouting for boys
12 years of age and over, and
Senior Scouting for young men
IS years of age and over.
"The local organization Is a
part of the Crater Lake Area
Council, and is a member agen
cy of the Medford Community
Chest. . Cubbing, Scouting and
Senior . Scouting groups are
sponsored by churches and com
munity . organizations in . Med
ford, Jacksonville, Phoenix, and
Central Point. Although there
has been an increase locally of
42 per cent in boy membership
during the past 12 months, plans
are under way to extend the
program to many more boys by
means of an appeal to commun
ity groups. A special appeal is
being made to men to serve as
leaders and committeemen.
"Local leaders include J. A.
McDougall, Medford district
commissioner; Seth M. Bullls,
chairman; Larry Schade, Crater
Lake Area Counil president; 1
Charles B. Warner, executive,
and Arnold K. Green, assistant
.executive.
