Merger Plan Protested LAKEVIEW Protest has been expressed to the Girl Scout head quarters in Seattle by the local Scout Council over being included in a merger for a larger council which was revealed in a letter sent to parents from headquarters. The local group, of which Mrs. G. VV. Thornburg is president, has consistently voted against being in cluded in tile merger. The Lake County Council stated that it strenuously objected to the term. Five Councils, as used in the letter to parents. The letter camel out of the public relations work group for Project No. 10. The council felt when two of the five councils have voted against the proposed merger, it should not be inferred that all "five councils arc in agreement. Of the five councils. Lake Coun ty and Rogue Valley voted over whelmingly not to join the larger group. Locally the organization feels that more is being done for the girls by the distribution of funds here at home than could be accomplished by an administra tion so far aw'av from home.
