vAGE TWO Today‘s Girl Scout is interested chiefly in homemaking, health, and arts and crafts, according to proâ€" ficiency badges awarded last year by national headquarters in New York City. The parts of Elmer and Eppie, handy man and maid, are played by Eddie Gilroy and June Schlung in the allâ€"school production, "June Mad," to be presented Saturday evening.

She wants to know how to cook, and how to buy foods, but most of all, how to be a gracious hostess. She is interâ€" ested in good health, particularly in first aid, child care, and home nursâ€" ing. She is thoroughly creative, spending much leisure time on needlecraft, design and interior deeâ€" oration. Her community and its needs are important to her. She is becoming more and more interested in the outâ€" ofâ€"doors. She would like to do her part towards the promotion of inâ€" ternational friendship. She‘s healthy, happy and eager to work, apparentâ€" ly making easily the adjustment from the childhood role or recipient to the adult role of contributor. Beating a field of 56 players from 13 districts and eight schools, the Highland Park team won the opâ€" portunity to compete in the state meet next Friday with a mcore of 336, but lost the district plaque by one point. The team, consisting of the four low score men, had a score of 336 and beat New Trier by 11 points and Waukegan by 12 points, but in the individual contest Waukegan took a first and a third, while Manâ€" uel de la Torre of Highland Park placed second. Upon computing the score it was found that Highland Park and Waukegan had tied, and according to the complex point sysâ€" tem these two teams were reâ€"scored giving Waukegan a final tally of 17 and Highland Park 16. The low score Highland Park foursome, howâ€" ever, will represent the district in "Needlecraft led in the field of arts and crafts, with design a close second," she said. "Interior decorâ€" ating, drawing and painting came next. Badges in literature and draâ€" matics showed an increase of 486 per cent, outdoor activities an increase of 225 per cent, and arts and crafts 176 per cent. In times like these it is especially gratifying to note that the badges in international friendâ€" ship increased 126 per cent and in community life 118 per cent. When we consider the activity range indiâ€" cated by the 1989 awards, we find that our Girl Scouts have well disâ€" tributed interests that show a conâ€" vincing adjustment of life." In reporting on the proficiency badges, Mrs. Arthur Page of New York City, chairman of the proâ€" gram committee, said that the four most ‘popular in the homemaking field were: Hostess, cook, clothing, and foods.
