Jones, di rector and general secretary of the camp. The camp was held from July 22 through August 19. This was the first year that the three towns have combined In their camping programs. Camp Highlight Highlight of the camp was when 24 boys led by Clyde Smith, 64-year-old trip camper, of Ashland, climbed Mt. Thiel n, a 8.300-foot peak adjacent to Diamond Lake. On two sep arate occasions Smith success fully led these trips up Mt. Thiel sen. This year the youngest camp er ever to make the peak as far as the leaders know was Greg Gandce, 9 - year - old Medford YMCA member. The newest and best received part of the program was sailing, Jones said. Canoeing and over night trips to adjacent wilder nesses where boys practiced building lean-tos and overnight camping facilities, were also scheduled. Ceremony Held The installation of a Ragger ceremony was another attraction during the camp. This ceremony highlights the Christian com ponent of the YMCA program. The Medford Public library lent about 200 books to the camp which were taken from the "preferred reading list for boys. These books were well used by the boys, according to camp officials, especially on rainy days. Dean Crumley, a college stu dent from Globe, Ariz., acted as waterfront director along with 'Bruce Hamilton from the Rose burg school district. Carl Gor don. Medford. from University of Oregon, acted as program di-; Tector. i More than 50 of the bays from Medford earned their solo camp ership through the sale of hand soap, which they procured at the YMCA office.
