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.

award color guards. 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.

The Coast Guard said the
