THURSDAY, MARCH 10, 1988 Preceding the dinner, March 4, Miss Jane McWhinney and her troop of High School Senior Scouts met Miss Helen Pedley and her mother at the station and escortedâ€"them to the home ofâ€" Mrs. Roy O. Nereim. There the girls discharged the duâ€" ties of hostess and served tomato juice and ‘dainty appetizers, and enjoyed a delightful informal visit with their guests, Miss Pedley was presented with a corsage of gardenias, a gift from the troop. From ‘the hours of 3:30 to 6 ©‘clock, Ravinia School Auditorium was buzzing with activity for in that time tables had to befset up, chairs arranged, tables set and decâ€" orated. The response from the girls in the troops was very gratâ€" ifying, for with the assistance of council members and their leaders, the girls proved that they could work not only well, but quickly. Including â€"the â€"council, leaders, troops, parents and guests, there were over three hundred present. For the D.A.R. North Shore Chapâ€" ter, Mrs. Carleton Harkness, Reâ€" gent, presented to the following girls American Flags for their troops:â€" No. 1, Helen Frank; No. 3, Lillian Dinelli; No. 4, Alice Rossiâ€" ter; No. 5, Joan Holt; No. 6, Virâ€" ginia Bruce; No. 7, Betty Bench; No. 8, Janet Morrissey; No. 10, Nancy Kugel. 7 Miss Helen Pedley, speaker, measâ€" ured â€"up to every anticipation and hope for interest and entertainâ€" ment. She told of her experiences at Camp Andre and spoke in a charming and refreshing manner and gave us a real "scout" viewâ€" point in the joys of camping. For many weeks the chairman of badges and awards, Mrs. John Brent, had been filling out questionâ€" aires concerning the merits of Helâ€" en Frank, for whom the council had made application for the Award of the Golden Eaglet, which is the highest honor to be conferred upon a Girl Scout. It had been a secret hope that we could present this award at the annual dinner, but because of the necessary "red tape" there were many disturbing delays. On the morning of the 2nd., Naâ€" tional wired the good news that all was well, and requirements had been fulfilled. It was with great rejoicing that this addition was made to the program of the eveâ€" ning. <Highland Park may well be proud of Helen Frank and Girl GIRL SCOUTS Quality Cleaners RELIABLE LAUNDRY Jummmmmmm»«tmm‘ with an alr rifle during the conditioning grind at his training camp in Lafayetteville, N.
