The Osho Sines PAGE NINE TUESDAY, JULY 11, 1961 |" SECOND SECTION Rotarians Asked To An appeal to the members to give advice and accord their support to the Boy Scout Move- ment was voiced by Stanley Lovell, president of the Oshawa Boy Scout District Council, at the Monday meeting of the Rotary Club of Oshawa. Rotarian Lovell stressed the association's need for trained leaders to help open channels of communication with the youth of the community and to assist in the development of their thinking. He felt it would be much befter to guide today's youth on the right path than to reclaim them after they have appeared in the courts. | FUTURE LEADERS together. Among them were many of the leaders of the future from whose understand- ing of the ways and aims of their fellows from other coun- tries will come the assets of the civilized world. From the time the boy joins the Cubs, he prepares for serv- ice to his community and his country. The tests are stringent until he reaches the pinnacle of a Queen Scout. GOLDEN ANNIVERSARY It was recalled that the Osh- awa association will start the celebration of its golden anni- versary next fall. The late Max Soanes was the first leader with Ray McLaughlin as his assis- various Cub and Scout groups. Many of them, he said, give up their holidays to take their groups to camp. All serve with- out remuneration and pay for their own equipment. Praise was also voiced of the work be- ing done by the parents who take an active part in group committee work and make it possible for the groups to oper- ate. 1623 CERTIFICATES Speaking of Camp Samac, which was given to the asso- ciation by R. S. McLaughlin, the speaker said that 623 earned their swimming certificates there last summer. About 10,000 used the camp last year while tant. Among the group of boys who met in the late George Mc- Laughlin's barn were Angus Mitchell and the late Neil Felt.
