CIVIC first time in over three weeks, Mayor Christine Thomas im- mediately found a meeting to attend and dropped in to hear discussion on acquisition of a 30-acre tract of land south of Scouts Feted At The"annual father and son banquet of the 12th Oshawa Cub and Scout Troop was held in the Harmony United Church Christian Education Centre Sat- urday, Feb. 24. Lawrence Crowe, chairman of the group committee, acted as master of ceremonies. The 151 fathers, sons and guests were welcomed by Queen's Scout Ralph - Laxton and the blessing was asked by the Rev. N. T. Holmes. Mr. Crowe explained the pur- pose behind the banquet which is to bring to the fathers a better understanding of scouting and to see first hand how a cub or scout meeting is con- ducted. He also gave a resume of the group committee's acti vity during the past year. PRESIDENT SPEAKS The head table was introduced and included Stan _ Lovell, president of the District Coun- eil,, who. opened his remarks by commenting on the history making orbital flight of Astro- naut Colonel John Glenn and likened the Colonel's thanking of the people of Perth, Australia for turning their lights on for him, to the fact that 55 years ago Lord Baden Powell also made history by turning on the lights of scouting for us. Mr. Lovell also emphasised that a large number of boys were enrolled in the 12th Osh- awa Cub and Scout Troop and wondered if the parents realized the amount of time and effort involved in the training of such a group. He made a plea for more active participation by the mothers and fathers of these boys. Two members of the troop leaders last week received the highest award in scouting. The queen's scout badge. The group is justly rpoud of Ralph Laxton and Brian Wilson Ralph gave up his evening of honor when he was unable to site of the proposed centre project. On the mayor's left are Ald. Gordon B. Attersley; E.-R. S. McLaughlin, chairman of as the communily 'And Cubs | Driver Is ' Arrested Dinner Ralph did not lose out, how- ever, as Mr. Lovell presented him with his certificate with the whole troop present. The 12th was further honored last year when two troop leaders, John Hall and Ralph Laxton, were chosen to attend the third Canadian National Jamboree held at Connaught Ranges, Ottawa. Scout Grant Bennett thanked the ladies auxiliary for a very delicious dinner after which Mrs. F. Bartlett, president of the scout auxiliary, gave a report on the activity of her group. BADGES PRESENTED Scoutmaster Ernie Jukés, with the help of Assistant Scoutmaster John Maiel, pre- sented several proficiency bad- ges and it was gratifying to isee that two boys, Peter Crowe and Ted Coulson earned the Pathfinder Badge which is a qualifying badge for Queen's Scout. | A new badge "The Golden Arrow" was earned by six scouts. This badge is awarded to hoys taking the patrol leader training course. John Hall and John Wotten were presented with their green and: yellow cords' and their Bushman Thong signifying ex- ceptional proficiency in wood- craft Gordon Bell, 'Akela' of the Cub Pack, made presentations of proficiency badges to a number of cubs. Among them were David Peacock and Neil Brockman who received the coveted second "Eye", the high- est award in cubbing. FINE ENTERTAINMENT Entertainment was provided by the cubs and scouts and started off with David Crowe, Brian Wilson and Keith Storey presenting their version of a new Australian song "My Boo- merang Won't Come Back", with appropriate gestures.

Mr. Middiemass outlined that the Ontario Safety League was formed in 1915 and after numer- ous years of trying to conduct a Safety campaign throughout the province, decided to go to the Municipal level and, there- fore, the Oshawa Safety League was formed in 1954. The Ontario Safety League was formed for safety instruc- tions, first with railway and street cars, then to cars, bi- cycles, and now they are going to schools, houses, etc. The funds to support the Safe- ty League usually come from grants from the municipalities, or industry.
