Boy Scouts Celebrate
40th Anniversary
The week of February 6-12
marks the 40th anniversary oi
the founding of the Boy Scouts
of America. Here in Alaska this
year’s observance takes on spe
cial significance as a group of
picked scouts make their plans
for participation next summer in
the National Jamboree to be
held at Valley Forge, Penn.,
from June 30 to July 6. This will
be the first time in the history
of Alaska Scouting that repre
sentatives from the Territory
will participate in such a gath
ering.
The Jamboree Committee, i
headed by Curtis Shattuck of
Juneau, has chosen Rev. Victor
Alfsen, scoutmaster of the Pal
mer troop 654, to be scoutmaster
of the group of Alaska boys who
will take part. Rev. Alfsen is
pastor of the Presbyterian
Church at Palmer, and is holder
of the Silver Beaver Award, pre
sented to him in 4948 as recog
nition for outstanding service to
boyhood. He is also an Eagle
Scout. Rev. Alfsen will have two
assistant scoutmasters, to be
named later by the Committee, j
It is planned that 83 Alaska boys !
will represent the Territory atj
the nation-wide encampment.
Approximately 40,000 picked
Scouts from all over the nation
will converge on the winter
headquarters of George Washing- j
| ton's army for the national eon
j clave. Alaska Scouts will join
I the contingent from Seattle,
! travelling with their eight troops
j in a special train, and stopping
over lor sightseeing at Glacier
National Park, Chicago, Detroit,
Niagara Falls, Pittsburgh, Wash
ington, Philadelphia, New York,
Boston, Denver, and Salt Lake i
City, before returning home.
Twenty two Alaska Scouts
have paid initial registration
fees for the Jamboree, and their
applications are being consid
ered by the Jamboree Commit
tee. Two of these boys are from
Barrow, with their names and
other information not yet re
ceived at the Council Headquar
ters in Juneau. Included in the
list of applicants is the name of
David Gray, Seward troop 630.
Total cost of the Jamboree
trip for the Scouts is estimated
at about $400, with the majority
of the boys planning to earn all
or a substantial portion of their
expenses.
Chairman Shattuck empha
sized that troops or senior units
not having their candidates for
the Jamboree registered yet,
should send in their applications
immediately, since the Alaska
contingent will be limited to one
full troop fo 33 boys and appli
cations must be transmitted to
New York before March 1. “The
Jamboree Committee hopes that
every registered troop or ex
plorer unit in Alaska will have
at least one representative par
ticipate in this great experi
ence,” the chairman said. “It is
imperative that reservations be
made immediatley, since the big
Eastern Councils are waiting to
take over the places that have
been held for us, if we are not
going to use them.”
