STH "B" PACK NEWS Neighbors rushed to the doors. Men dropped their hoes and ran in wild terror. Policemen turned pale as they reached for. their revolvers. Ministers locked the doors of their churches in frantic haste, while mothers yanked their little children off the streets. What was the cause of this trepida- tion (look this word up in the dic- tionary)? It was the annual B"" Pack"s Surprise Night! Is there any better reason for the fright of the untol thousands in the northern wards of wa? One meeting started off all wrong, as planned. The Cubs had to use the back door to enter the hall, as the front one was locked and labelled. The meeting opened with Grand Howl, and Roll Call and Dues, with Rikki tak- ing Raksha"s place.

Tom Bully still looked in pretty geod shape, and his Lion patrol seemed to have no worries at all except that the Wolves were still leading In the competition with only two weeks left. During the period for patrol activities the patrols were given two coins to study. Then we took turns in going into the Sunday School iktchen where we were tortured by another of those nightmare Kim's Game tests by which a certain SM amuses himself. change this game did have something to do with the objects studied; it also had something to do with Bald Eagle's uniform. Tom Sully claimed that he was feeling very well, 1) were looking at his handsome, shaven Jaw a little bit suspiciously. The Bronge Arrowheads, which had arrived too late for the banquet, were resented now to .L. Ken Fisher of the 'olves anPd Second Lloyd Scott of the Lions. Doug Girard of the Beavers was absent and so did not receive his; the Beavers noted with dismay that his absence, without informing his P.L., had cost. em a lot of points. At this time with thé meeting ready for flag down and dismissal, the Lions discovered that their Patrol Leader, Tom Sully, who was claiming that he had never felt better in his life, had a remarkable swelling along his right jawbone. It wasn't a wisdom tooth-- impossible!--nor was it gum--t00 un- dignified for a patrol leader--it was certainly MUMPS.

HOHUM 4TH OSHAWA SCOUT NEWS The Lightning Lynx, winners of the last patrol contest, had a hyper (that's a bit more super than super-dooper) day in Toronto last Saturday. Leaving our fair city at 10:30 a.m. they buzzed up to the land of smoke noise and dirt, and visited Surplus Stores first. Then they explored the Canadian Tire Corp to see the clerks ooze around on roller skates, then Lewis Craft supplies when they exam- ined all sorts of handcrafts, and then lunch. in the restaurant. After this the gang toddled off to Sunnyside where everyone proceeded to make their heads ache by indulging in all sorts of weird rides. Some of the gang found a pistol game that was out of order and would work without putting A 8M. took this over. Finally the crowd were rounded up and off to any coyyets in.

The | Hoh was Sind to see Mr. J, Valentine the District Scoutmaster for our troop up to inspect the troop. Fortunately the Scouts seemed to be doing a little more than their part to make the meeting a success and this was really appreciated by the leaders. The meet- ing got under way with flag break ainouncements which was fol- lowed by inspection. There was still room for improvement in the uniform sivuation but things didn't look too had, Each meeting seems to bring out Just a little more of this highly prized stuff which tends to make the Scout really look like 8 Scout. After the dues h been collected, the Troop broke up into the various study groups to continue with the passing and test- ing of badges. We had a good sized group janing the map reading course whi is going along quite well. The Scouts all seem interested, and even ough we are taking a little more than the book calls for, it will be very useful in the future. Other Scouts worked on signalling, and other second | class work, while one group pounded | away at their Tenderfoot knots and other work. All the Scouts were most interested in their own group which was quite an improvement over some ngs. Mr. Vi seem- ed quite pleased with the troop in gen- eral and although several things could have been improved the general situ- ation was sad ing. "Pass the Staff" which was playe after the study eriod kept a lot of boys "on the go," ut "Butch" Pravt proved he could "run like blazes" because he captured the final award. A second study period which was followed by lowering of the flag and prayers, closed the meeting. --A.8.M. J. HARE, 14TH OSHAWA WOLF CUB PACK "Have you a black button?" "Have you a bobby pin, or a small empty box?" ese are some of the questions that were ask by the Cubs of the 14th Oshawa Pack Monday night when they were on a Scavenger Hunt. And while geriag bu running, walking and stag- a Bg back and forth looking for this nd looking for that, counting the number of window panes in this sehool, finding the address of that store--while they were doing all that, one of the Sixes got mixed up in their directions. We thought they were lost but they finally turned up with some tall tales--and do vou know th~v wang two miles out of thelr way. No won der they took so long. They really tried hard, though so they got a con- solation prize. Oh yes, the White Six came first They certainly did well. me people were very kind though and gave the boys several articles when they knocked on thelr doors. It's about time the short pants were showing up again in those uniforms, fellows. What about next week. Until Monday, good hunting. --THE OLD WOLVES. 4TH CUB PACK NEWS On the. cali irom Raksha, the Cubs crept silently, from their lairs, and tormed a circle in the middle of the room. Sixer Donald McMurtry led the Cubs in Grand Howl. After this, Akela told the Cubs that the annual church parade was coming up soon, and that everyone should be in uniform for the occasion! Then it was announced that we were going on a "penny chase," and Akela carefully explained the whole thing to the Cubs and the Sixes, each with a leader, went outside to the front of the church. The Leaders flipped a pany to determine the direction in which to take the Six, and soon th different Sixes were heading In all directions. Each Six and leader, had chose and when they got to the eighth church by flipping the penny at the block, end of each block, to direction in which they had to go. The White and Black Sixes, were the first ones to get back to the church, then the Brown Six and Six, and last- ly, the Grey Six. Some of the Sixes had difficulty, especially the Reds and Greys. Although they were just a block from the church, it was a long time before the penny turned up on the right side! When everyone was back from the "chase," we all went oyer to the park and had a relay game of leap frog. Goodness sakes, you fellas will have to practice up on leap-frog before field day! The meeting closed with prayers. Next Monday night, provided it doesn't rain, we will be having an out- door meeting, that is out in the coun- try, so bring along a jacket and com-~ | fortable shoes, for you'll have to hike some woods, and it may be a bit | vo chilly before wet get a camp-fire going. Try and at the church on the dot of 6:30, for we'll be leaving at that time for the woods. See you all then, and until Monday night, good hunt- ing, Cubs, --THE OLD ONES, 11TH OSHAWA NEWS Tom Sully and Ken Pipher chose up sides and we opened this meeting by playing a game of ball in the school yard, © Tom looked in fine shape at first, and his team won by the score of 10-7.
