During the Summer the British public are fond of Australian and New Zealand varieties like Jonathan. Delicious and Cleopatra.

Now that the Summer is with us again, however, we Lonies once again come into our own,â€"not that the Winter months are any less intorâ€" esting from a Scouting point of view! For after all it is a regretâ€" table fact that many of the city Scouts are "Scouts" only in name, being very far from experienced in real Scout Craft. Sometimes we Lone Scouts are inâ€" clined to deplore the fact that wo are not members of an ordinary Troop, taking part in the activities at Troop Headquarters and associating with lots of other Scouts in their weekly meetings. We are always glad to hear that the Scouting "infection" has taken hold of boys in various parts of the Province, because ‘the more Scouts we have in this country the better it will be for the whole community in years to come. It is with very great regret that we record the unfortunate death of one of our Lone Scout Comrades, One night, recently, Lone Scout Theodore Dixon of Unionville was riding down the main street of that town when the Hydro power fhiled and plunged the town in darkness.

And who ever heard of a real Scout who tracked and trailed and trekked and hunted and camped in a Troop Headquarters? No, Sir again! The natural environment of a true Scout is out of doors, and that‘s where we Lonies spend most of our time. Finds Own Niche "LONE B" The total average extornal resisâ€" tance to a sprint at 7.5 meters (246 feet a second was found to be about It was found, from a study of the films, that there is another set of external rosistance factors. It is pointed out that the foot does not strike the ground directly under the runner but somewhat in front of him, with the result that the runner tends to check his speed every time his foot touches the ground. Measureâ€" ments of the extont of this checking process revealed that the average unâ€" trained runner sprinting at 7.5 meters (24.6 feet) a second loses about 1% per cent, of his velocity at every contact of his feet with the ground. J | _ Certain factors, which led to the ‘taklng of the films, were known beâ€" fore, such as that the air resistance for a man running at top speed, comâ€" puted at 7.5 meters (24.6 feet) per second, is about 1.2 kilograms (2.64 Ibs.), which, it is pointed out, is not a very large resistance to be overâ€" come by a man able to exert an averâ€" ago force of something like 50 kiloâ€" grams (110,2 lbs.). Limiting Factors However, it was obvious that a man ruuning at a maximum speed| must be subjected to limiting ta.ctorsl and hence his average propelling| force must be just equal to the re-l sisting force at his maximum and‘ hence constant speed. | O.
