Scout W eek Set
For Feb. 6-12
College Station and Bryan Scouts
will join the observance of the 41st
anniversary of the Boy Scout
Movement scheduled for Feb. 6-
12. Among other things, scouts will
help with the nation-wide “good
turn” to meet an emergency need
for clothing in several countries
around the globe.
Nation-wide good turns of this
character have had a prominent
place in Scouting’s forty-one year
history during which more than
17,750,000 boys and leaders have
been identified with it. Brazos
County has 21 Scout units serving
more than 500 boys of all ages.
The first National Good Turn in
1912 promoted a safe and sane
fourth of July. Boy-power, trained
and organized for service came into
full play during the first World
War. Scouts then sold nearly $150,-
009,000 in Liberty Loan Bonds,
located 20,758,660 board feet of
sorely needed walnut and a hun
dred carloads of fruit pits used
in gas masks. They helped in food

Official Notice
Because there has been a change this
year in the Air Force ROTC summer
camps, there naturally has been some
doubt in the minds of some Army cadets
whether or not there will be a camp for
them this summer. The following informa
tion has just been received from Head
quarters Fourth Army:
“Attendance at ROTC summer training
camps for advanced course ROTC students
scheduled to attend camps will take prior
ity over any other army camp attendance.”
The above proves that as of now the
Army does contemplate a summer ROTC
camp.

’ Yessir! — here’s a mighty low price to pay for riding
safely and smoothly on thick-treaded tires again! It’s a
> bargain we can offer you at B. F. Goodrich by making
a fair swap on tire bodies. Give us your old smoothie.
. In return, get a sturdy tire on which B. F. Goodrich has
* molded a new, full tread — and what a tread! It’s
tough Silvertown cold-rubber, as thick as new tires —
y famous Silvertown anti-skid design with strong but-
' tressed shoulders and 7 full ribs. Sounds like a good
deal. You bet it is! So grab it now while you're
' inspired to give the family car a new lease on life.
Drive ’er in today!

grew thousands of Boy Scout War
Gardens.
In response to a radio call from
President Roosevelt in 1934 for
a “National Good Turn” in relief
work during the depression, Boy
Scouts in a few weeks collected
1,812,284 items of clothing, house
hold furnishings, foodstuffs and
other supplies for the needy and
distressed.
From 1941 to 1945 the Govern
ment made 69 requests for Boy
Scout war service including the
distribution of Defense Bonds and
Stamp Posters, air raid posters
and other Government literature
and the collection of aluminum and
rubber. Scouts also served as gov
ernment dispatch bearers and
helped harvest crops in addition to
raising victory gardens.
During this time, the Boy Scouts
of America also planned and car
ried out several drives for scrap
newspapers and magazines which
resulted in the collection of thous
ands of carloads of the badly need
ed paper for war industry.
4,394 Voters
Pay Poll-Tax
In Brazos Co.
Although complete figures had
not been compiled, more than 1,000
Brazos County voters paid their
poll taxes Wednesday—the final
day for payments.
With the 1,029 persons who met
the deadline, the total number of
voters to have paid their poll-taxes
jumped from 3,363 to 4,394. This
figure is expected to be increased
by other payments which are being
received through the mail.
Last year 7,054 voters paid their
poll taxes in Brazos County. Ex
emption certificates were claimed
by 1,200 persons this year.
The total number of payments
for the county are expected to be
tabulated by Monday or Tuesday of
next week.
‘Essential’ Grads
May Be Deferred
All graduating college students
will be granted a 30-day draft de
ferment to give them a chance to
get into essential industry. This
announcement, from Draft Director
Lewis B. Hershey, is effective at
once. It will apply to about 30,000
college seniors who graduated at
midterm.
Graduates who are successful in
finding “essential jobs” in vital in
dustries may apply to their draft’
boards for reclassification.
No rules have been handed down
by Selective Service to determine
jobs that warrant deferments. Lo
cal draft boards will have the final
say on each case. The local boards
have been given lists of essential
activities for guidance.
Order of DeMolays
To Be Set Up Here
A Brazos County Chapter of the
Order of De Molay for Bryan and
College Station will be set up
Tuesday at 6:30 p.m. in the A&M
Consolidated High School.
A team from one of the De Mo
lay chapters in Houston will con
fer the degrees at 8:30 p.m. The
installation of officers will follow,
Welcome Wright of the Industrial
Education Department said.
All De Molays and Masons are
invited, Wright added.
There are now 75,696 Units of
Cub Scouts and Explorers in the
Boy Scouts of America.

CC Membership Drive
By ALLEN PENGELLY
Battalion City Staff
The fifth annual membership
drive of the College Station Cham
ber of Commerce which began Feb.
1 will continue throughout the re
mainder of the month, said Joe
Sorrels, president of the chamber.
Co-chairmen for the drive are
Ray Oden and J. E. Jocko Roberts.
Oden will be responsible for the
commercial memberships while
Roberts will head the individual
and husband-wife memberships.
To become a member of the Col
lege Station Chamber of Com
merce, with full privileges, one
must be a resident or businessman
of the city and must be interested
in the improvement of the social
and civic conditions of the city.
Membership Costs
The cost of membership in the
civic organization is five dollars
for the individual and six dollars
for the husband-wife combination
membership. The minimum cost for
a commercial membership is $10.
The suggested rates for a commer
cial membership vary between $10
and $100, depending upon the size
of the business and its ability to
pay. The average membership for
last year was $22.50.
The goal of this year’s drive is
500 members. In 1950, there were
255 members divided as follows: 61
commercial memberships and 194
individual and husband-wife com
bination memberships.
All work done by the Chamber
of Commerce is by voluntary work
ers. This accounts for the admin
istrative costs being only 4.5% in
stead of the customary 55% sug
gested budget.
Expenditures Totaled
Of the $3,752.83 received from
last year’s drive, the total expen
ditures of the organization were
$3,440.60. This money was spent
through the various committees
for education, membership, recrea
tional facilities, business develop
ments, public health, legislation,
office expenses, publicity, civic
development, and city planning.
Members of the Membership
Drive Committee are Hershel Bur
gess, Earl Cunningham and Mar-
