Scout Executive
Well Pleased With
Nome Response
Expressing complete satisfac
tion with the response of Nome
to the Boy Scouts of America pro
gram in Alaska was Alaska Scout
executive Maurice Powers, who
left for Anchorage Friday. This
was the seccfnd visit to Nome for
Powers, who heads up the Scout
ing program for boys in the Terri
tory.
During his five-day stay Powers
introduced new Midnight Sun
District field executive Duane
Force to Nome Scouters and as
sisted in the organization of the
annual finance campaign.
“Alaska has over 6,000 boys of
Scout age, Powers said, with near
ly 1,900 of them being served in
the existing Cub Packs, Scout
Troops, ad Explorer posts in the
Territory. Through the support of
Alaskans in providing the neces
sary operating funds we are hop
ing to be able to extend the Scout
program to every boy in Alaska
who wishes to take part. Here in
Nome I find the entire commun
ity heartily in back of our work.
A few people still talk about tak
ing money away from Nome
through our annual finance cam
paigns, but more and more the re
sponsible leaders are coming to
recognize that our effort is aimed
not at taking money out, but of
bringing the resources of the Boy
Scouts of America into Nome.
Those of us connected with Alas
ka’s Scouting pledge to do our
best to repay this confidence with
the best program of service pos
sible despite the distances which
separate Nome from the other
centers of population. We must all
recognize that worth-while things
cost money. The only support
which the Alasa Council receives
is through the annual community
finance campaigns. We will wel
come suggestions from the people
of Nome for improving our pro
gram of service, and we appreci
ate their backing,” Powers said
Friday.
t
James G. Browne, manager of
the field office in Juneau of the
Social Security and Wesley Hayes,
assistant regional representative
of the San Francisco regional of
fice are scheduled to arrice at the
Wallace Hotel on November 21st
to discuss social security problems
cn benefits and to furnish claim
ants information on the increased
i
benefits which went into effect
recently.
