At present, there is a Cub group in Port Perry, and until a few years ago there was 3 Scouting movement as well, but apparently had to fold because of a lack of leaders. There had never been a Beaver group here. Alf Huggins, who is one of the co-ordinators for the formation of the two new groups, told the Star that it is hoped there will be enough response to get the organi- zations into operation in the next few weeks. vers, for boys aged 5 to ¥, provide training and experience for Cubs; and the Scouts, for boys aged 11 to 14, offer something for youngsters when they are too old for Cubs. . Mr. Huggins said that Brian Herron, who has 'several years of experience as a Scout leader has agreed to take on the responsibilities here, and Peter Hansen has agreed to lead the Beavers. Mr. Huggins added that there is a need for assistant leaders in all three organi- zations. The Beaver organization offers a young boy games, crafts, stories, sports, hiking and special excursions, all the while stressing the concept of sharing and taking part in activities together. The Beavers will meet one afternoon each week after school at the Scout Hall in Port Perry. A membership fee of $6 per year will be charged, along with small weekly dues.

In addition to Mp. Petro- poulas of Agincgurt, the owners of the two other cars were identified by Durham Police as Doug Scrimshaw of Oshawa and John Hadley of Port Perry. The mishaps apparently will be covered by insurance. One agent in Port Perry told the Star Monday that he checked with two insurance companies and learned the comprehensive and all-perils clause in a policy would cover any damages and the cost of removal from the water. Just why the ice was so thin in that one particular area of the lake, is not exact- ly clear. But it is thought to have something to do with the large pressure ridge that caused thick ice to heave and buckle in a line almost the entire width of the lake. 9:00 to 1:00 * Great Music * Great Lighting * Great Time! Friday Night PORT TAVERN EVERY FRIDAY NO JEANS is about $15. Mr. Huggins explained that any boy interested in Scouts need not have been a Cub or a Beaver. 'All they need is the desire to get involved", he said. Some of the activities that Scouts can look forward to are canoeing, hiking, district and regional events, and overnight camping trips in the winter-time. Membership will be $6 per year with weekly dues of 25 cents. Scout urfiforms cost in the neighbourhood of $40. Mr. Huggins feels that an "ideal-sized start-up group for Scouts would be about 20, and for Beavers about 30 boys. However, he said, if by Jean Jeffery The Manchester 4-H Homemaking Club will be dividing because of the large number of girls involved. Mrs. Kingstone will lead the Manchester Club for the girls in that area. Mrs. Kerry will start an Epsom Club for our area girls.
