The original plan was to visit Yellowstone park, but as the girls grew older their plans changed. They believed that in this community they had ample opportunity for the outdoor type recreation and a visit to a large city appealed to them. Last October, after much dis cussion the troop voted un animously to visit southern California., To finance the trip the girls voted to save all dues, cookie sales proceeds, and gifts for this purpose. In accordance with Girl Scout policies, they have had not' more than one sale per year besides the an nual cookie sale.

Roman Miscellany By MARGARET SCHULER Rome Learning to know Rome is a big job. Official guides study for three years to prepare adequately to ex plain its wonders, in short order, to ubiquitous, bulging groups of tourists. But anoth er type of guide might be useful also, to pick up where the erudite one leaves off. A "mop up" persons, for those Interested Ones, with a few days to spare, good, feet, and a willingness to walk; for persons not concerned with shopping for men's ties, gloves, or Borsolini hats. Such a guide might start you off to Old Rome, where you may wander along nar row streets, to discover for yourself the interesting things to be found old coats of arms, for example, of a Borghese, an Orsini of an old Medici family, fasten ed high on old palace walls. These are to be found on many an old street or piazza, or you may enjoy peering through open gates into court yards and breathtaking ef fects of gardens, with their fountains, flowers and stat ues statues statues. The not too fastidiouf per sons might appreciate a ride on the ES or ED trams. They are unique, in that they circle the city, one going one way, and one the other. It costs 3 cents to go around as many times as you wish. You real ly, see things, too. Besides passing the Colosseum, the Forum, St. Peter's and Old Walls, you cross the Tiber two times. If you have the time and can afford it you may step off to explore a bit, hop on, pay 3 cents more, and lurch around again. It takes about an hour to make a circle. Visit Otello'i By now, it should be lunch time,' from one o'clock to four o'clock. If you enjoy eat in, your guide, might take you for instance to Otello's. Only a small sign, high up, advertises this garden restau rant, which you enter by way of a typical, long stone cor ridor. You Will then be in as Italian-y a place, as you will find in all Rome. If it is the month of May the wisteria will be hanging in clusters above, and the la vender petals will drop on to pretty, dark heads, and into the crystal goblets of vino ros so. In June, the sunlight glints through ivy, to the gaily colored tables and chairs, and onto the aston ishing arrangement of vege tables and fruits, hanging about the marble fountain. As wine is the least expensive tiling you can buy in Rome, you will probably have a decanter or two of the "Wine of the house." Franscotti or Chianti, and for a pittance of what you would pay at one of. the "tourist traps" you will have as good a meal as you could wish for. Don't however, expect any highly seasoned or garlicky foods. You just don't find them any place you go. You won't find tourists at Otello's either. , After you have eaten, you may as well relax with every body else, because everything, including churches, is closed. It is said in Rome that "only dogs and Americans are on the streets between one and four." But at four o'clock, Rome comes again to its noi sy, tumultuous life. And you start once more, all relaxed and rested. Many Old Shops Now, if you are a stamp collector, you can find great treasures, and spend as much as you can afford to. Or, if go with your pals to DAY GAtilP! On the beautiful Applegate River near McKee Bridge Have fun all day! Bus leaves Y at 9:00 a.m., returns at 5:00 p.m. . ROOM FOR 60 BOYS! Only $5.00 per week. Includes Transportation, insurance, milk, leadership and program. Two periods to choose from. you like old prints, the guide will take you to fascinating old shops where you can spend hours browsing through prints, pages from old books, French bird pictures, English collections of ancient maps, hunt scenes, and etchings. Here is a place to buy gifts inexpensively. v If your guide has a macab re sense of humor, he may take you to an unparalleled cemetery, or to see the cats in the old ruins, or to see the more serious side of Rome women ironing with old flat irons on big tables, or girls sewing, sitting up in windows where, at best, it is bad light. But, by now, you are tired. for you have walked long dis tances. You can t enjoy Rome from a little car or taxi. So, for the grand finale, the guide leads you slowly up the Via Sistina, past the Hassler, stone steps, and monument, through the tree covered bou levard up to the coffee terrace at the Villa Valladier. It is how the Angelus hour, bells are ringing all over Rome: the swallows are div ing and swirling about. You sit for coffee with your inde fatigable guide, (and look out, and over Rome unveiled in all its glory in the setting sun. Tomorrow your guide will continue as long as you can go. There is an incredible lot to see in Rome.
