SCOUT ROUNDUP PRECEDES 1960 50th ANNIVERSARY j As the Boy Scouts of Ameri- ! ca approaches its golden anni- , versary in 1960 with nearly five million boys and adult : leaders enrolled, the Blackhawk Area Council, with headquarters at Rockford, is launch- ; ing a "roundup" during the fall j months to welcome hundreds j of new members into existing Cub Scout Packs, Boy Scout troops, and Explorer units as well as new units being organized. "For All Boys" is the solgan of the roundup. Past experij cnce shows that many boys fail to join Scouting merely bej cause no one invited them. * Periodic tests over the years 1 show that three of every four boys want to become members. The organization now enrolls one of every two boys of scouting ages. Each member is being asked personally to invite a boy to his meetings and join in : the fun! i Boys eight through ten years of age may join Cub Scouting. Cub S,couts are constantly oh the go, working on various requirements called for in their a c h i e v e m e n t p r o g r a m : . C u b Scouting is a typically American home-centered neighborhood program in which mothers serve as den mothers or help in other ways to see to it that a wide range of interesting activities are conducted. Dads sign up as den dads or pack committeemen and help make it possible fjor Cub Scout dens and packs to go pi acqs, see and do things. The Blackhawk Area Council has 5,2ob Cub Scouts in 116 Cub Scout packs. ) Boy Scouting for those |1 through 13 now has more members than ever before in its nearly fifty years of history. Boy Scout troops carry on a year-round program of camping in all weather. Members are taught to be self-reljiant, resourceful, and to acquire, many useful skills.

The number of emergency patients treated during the first seven months of 1959 were: January, 87; February, 94; March, 104; May, 122; June, 169; and July, 137.
