The rank of Eagle Scout was at- tained by Harold E. Spinney, Jr.,, New Trier senior of 927 Ashland avenue, Wilmette, at an impressive ceremony at the monthly Wilmette Scout assem- bly held in Byron C. Stolp school > Saturday night, March 12. This rank is the highest offered in Scout work, except the heroism medal awarded for saving life in extreme personal danger. Very few Scouts ever remain in the organization long enough, or strive diligently enough to rise to the Eagle level. However, ever since Spinney joined the second Wilmette troop of the First Congregational church, at twelve years of age, he has worked, until now, besides being an Eagle, he is junior assistant Scoutmaster of his troop in charge of Cub Scouts.
