Scout Troop Will Spend Week
At Buffalo Trail Ranch in June
At least one Kermit Scout left during the entire summer
troop will spend a week at the
Buffalo Trail Scout Ranch in
the Davis Mountains this sum
mer, John Fanning, district
scout executive reported re-
cently.
Fanning said 15 members of
Troop 466, Sam Grant, scout-
master, will spend the week of
June 24-30 at the Scout Ranch.
The Scout official said boys
Wishing to attend either the
ranch or Camp Ed Murphy at
Lake J. B. Thomas near Snyder
should contact their Scout-
masters immediately.
“The ranch is ' practically
filled for this summer,’’ Fan-
ning said. “As a matter of fact,
there are only nine troop sites
let DON

period.’’
Boys wanting to attend the
ranch must attend in troops
while individuals can go to
Camp Ed Murphy. Tuition for
the camps is $16 per boy per
week if a leader is with him,
or $17 per boy per week if he
goes as an individual. The fee
includes all expenses.
Camp Ed Murphy specializes
in aquatic activities while at
the ranch hiking and camping
are in greater emphasis. Fan-
ning said he will be at the
ranch himself during the week
of June 24-30.
Camping season at the ranch
starts June 3 and ends July 8,
while activities at Camp Murphy
begin July 15 and continue
through Aug. 5. Individuals can
attend the latter for the full
period, while boys at the ranch
can stay only as long as the
remainder of the troop is on
hand.

IPLEDCE
• • o
I will work hard to see that improvements and conditions in Precinct Four are on
an equal with our other precincts.
I will work and cooperate in a sound and honest manner with interested citizens
and other local governmental agencies toward more progress.
I will not support any costly project that is designed to serve only a few.
* My time will be devoted to all areas in Precinct Four.
I will treat employees and other citizens as I would like to be treated.
I will keep in mind the interests of all the people of Precinct Four on all issues.
I would consider it an honor to represent you as your Commission, Precinct Four.
I assure you, if given the opportunity, I will do as much or more for you as any other
candidate can. I will serve you the full term and work for the betterment of all the
people of Precinct Four. I will listen to any problem with an open mind. If you elect
me to represent you as your Commissioner and I can be of service to you, feel free
to call upon me.
I would devote my time (on the job) to the duties as Commissioner, managing Pre-
cinct Four operations in a business-like way. By doing this, a saving can be made.
This can then be applied to more improvements and more employment.
I would sincerely appreciate your vote Saturday, May 5.

The beluga whale is nick-

says. While traveling sub
merged, the mammal frequent
ly squeaks, squawks, and whis-

the sounds are audible. Others
are of such high frequency that
the human ear cannot detect
them.
