Space Capsule Exhibit Among Main Attractions at Jamboree (Editor' note: Following it anothtr dispatch by Tom Nm Jr., 7 Glen Oak dr.. Madford, on of three Boy Scouti from tha Crater Laka Area Council who attended tha 11th World Jamboraa in Marathon, Greece, recently.) By TOM NESS JR. The 11th World Jamboree was a great experience and will live forever in the mind of each Scout who attended. The Sigma 7 exhibit of Astro naut Schirra's space capsule and the documentary film on Astronaut Cooper s flight were perhaps the main attrac tions in exhibits at the Jam boree. The Jamboree site was open to tourists and residents of Greece. Each day there were many visitors, and large num bers of Greek people attend ed special events. On the afternoon of the Grand Parade all of the Jam boree contingents marched on review before H. M. King Paul of Hellenes. As the Amer ican contingent passed, t h e Greek people applauded and let out a tremendous cheer. However, I'm sure that our marching left much to be de sired at that time. Four days later, when the American Contingent Show was presented, which had been thoroughly rehearsed, the drilled marching of the U. S. Scouts into the open-air arena obviously made an im pression. There was no mis taking that a deep impression was made on the Greek peo ple by one part of our Amer ican contingent show. They stood amazed as we sang the Greek National Anthem, in Greek. Making new friends from other countries and trading or swapping was the number one item on everyone's list. The language barrier fell quickly; with those who did not speak English, we devised methods of being understood. "Change" was the universal word for exchange or swap. Most of tile scouts were well educated; many of them spoke English fluently besides speaking three or four other languages other than their own. Nine thousand scouts earn ed the Epathlon Daphnis or Laurel Award. The consists of a silver laurel branch anal a certificate signed by H.R.H. Crown Prince Con stantine. To earn the award a scout must meet the require ments set by the judges in the Triathlon, participate in the Labors of Hercules, swim in the Aegean Sea at least five times during the Jamboree, participate in field sports, and participate in a friendship ex change with a scout from an other country at meal time.

We were sur prised that the French scouts, whp rere encamped across the road, also saluted our flag during ceremony by using the scout sign, which Ls universal. On the evening of Aug. 8, during our retreat ceremony, Jon Lioufis, our sub camp chief, presented the writer with his Eagle badge in the presence of an honor guard consisting of our four patrol leaders. On the evening of Sunday, Aug. 11, Prince Constantine formally declared the Jam boree closed. All the scouts were assembled in the Arena and gave the scout oath in their native language. Then they all joined arms and sang a verse of "Auld Lang Syne" as the Prince lowered the orange Jamboree flag which flew above the Arena. The theme of the Jamboree, "Scout Higher and Wider," was lived up to by every scout. Tour Creek Cities Everyone was up early the next morning breaking camp. We left for the ancient Greek cities of Mycenae Epidaurus, Corinth, and Nauplia, the first capital of modern Greece. Our hotel in Nauplia was located in the midst of an ancient citadel on a high mound overlooking the Med iterranean Sea. After our tour through Greece, we flew back to ' Switzerland. Our troop rode the chair lift to the top of Mt. Pilatus (elevation 7,000 feet) just outside Lucerne. We then rode on the cable car down the other side to ' Lake Lucerne where we boarded a boat to return to Lucerne across the lake. The scenery in Switzer land is a beautiful green. The Swiss make use of all land for farming, right up to the forest regions. After touring Switzerland we flew from Zurich to Lon don, where we toured the Tower of London and saw the Crown jewels. We then went by bus to Oxford and then to Stratford where we toured Shakespeare's birth place and Anne Hathaway' cottage. Receives Lift Award At Shakespeare's birth place, our Scoutmaster, Hugh R a d e r, presented Robert Lamb, of Portland, with his Life Scout award. I The drive from Stratford back to London is like driv ing from Salem to Eugene. The freeway is the same and so is the scenery. The peo ple in England drive much more sensibly, although they drive on the left side of the road. As our American Ex press guide said, "The mo torists in Europe are crazy!" On every main street corner or crosswalk in London, the words "Look Left" are paint ed in white. Some of the boys in our troop saw Haley Mills, the young movie actress, at Ox ford Circus in London. Pica dilly Circus, the main square in London, was most interest ing to us as far as traffic and confusion ls concerned. One afternoon in London we visited the Baden-Powell House which is a memorial to Lord Baden-Powell, the founder of the Scouting movement which has now spread throughout the world. We then went to Gilwell Park just outside London. There, scouts from all over the world camp and receive leadership training. ft t REG. 29c S-OZ. LE PAGES Giant Value 36 PENCILS &&c SI. 0 value Pkq.

The Coast Guard said the ketch, owned by Wal t e r Fredcricksen, becalmed be tween Point Reyes and To males Bay at dusk. A 36-foot motor lifeboat took the craft in low and later moored it in Bodego Bay 50 miles northwest of San Francisco. The Coast Guard said the ship sailed from Astoria, Ore., on Aug. 17. Fredcricksen reported the craft also had developed trouble with its steering gear, the Coast Guard said. Aboard were Fredericksen; his wife: their son, Erik, and Mr. and Mrs. Richard Ross. They left Portland June 27. Their eventual destination was Nuka Hiva. principal town in the French owned Marquesas Islands in the South Pacific. They planned to pick sites for archaeolo gical exploration. T pesrt improper rip non delivery mt ttve M-ail Tritoum-e toa Mca-luret. pfctgne 774-6M.I; Aofe.
