SCOUTS BROADCASTER CAMERA CLUB 11 GIRL SCOUTS Girl Scouts Troop I, began the year on October T, IQL6, with Miss Day, leader and Miss Berry, assistant leader. A red cardinal was chosen as the troop's crest. on Octobef 21, the Scouts entertained the committee women at a supper meeting. Each girl was assigned a task and helped prepare the meal or served it. Activities like these help the Scouts earn their food and hostess badges. The Court of Awards was held Sunday eve- ning, November 5, in the All Saints Episcopal Church. Here, the Tenderfoot Scouts were in- vested. A Hostess badge was presented to Elsie Doty, Gladys Howardt, Beverly Manley, Beverly Barrows and Phyllis Whitney. A Leath- er badge was presented to Elsie Doty, Gladys Howardt and Beverly Manley. Troops I and II joined together and sang Christmas carols onDecemberlYth. After car- oling, the girls returned to the Scout rooms and enjoyed the warming refreshments served by Mrs. Paul Ward, Mrs. H. Nickerson, Mrs. Duane Butler and Mrs. Mack Chaffee. The Intermediate Scout group completed a photography unit with the help of the Science teacher, Miss Carey. They learned the different parts of the camera and how to take a well balanced picture. Each girl was given the opportunity to develop and print a film which she had exposed. A variety program was presented for the Community Club. This is the organization which sponsors Scouting activities. Plans are made for a Camp Fund which will make it possible for all Girl Scouts in Candor to attend summer camp. Outdoor activi- ties were the main interest of the spring program. SENIOR GIRL SCOUTS Mrs. Paul Haag led the Senior Scout Troop this year. She was a leader of the NGlrl Guidesn in Newfoundland before she came to Candor. The troop made a Christmas basket for a family, and mufflers for the people at the Doane-Carlson Nursing Home. The girls have sent boxes every three months to a girl in Poland. In this,the second year of Senior Scout- ing in Candor, our progressive com ittee women have helped us immeasurably. They are! Mrs. Mack Chaffee, Mrs. C. Duane Butler, Mrs. Wilson Moore, Mrs. Hiram Nickerson, Mrs. C. Paul Ward and Mrs. John Craig. BROADCASTER Doris Manning, assisted by Jack Wil- liams, edited the l9hc-h? nBroadcastern. The advisor this year was Miss Cohoon. The re- sponsibility usually falls upon the commer- cial teacher, but Miss Cohoon organized the staff and lent her one finger nleap and hopen typing exper1ence.to the project. Under her guidance, Jack Williams, Sophie Kaidon and Doris Manning attended the Press Conference in Syracuse in November. Here they learned many helpful things about setting-up and publishing a school paper. The judging on the December issue showed that the staff had in- corporated many good journalistic points in the make-up of the broadcaster. They came within twelve points of making a Grade A rat- ing. Students on the l9h6-M7 staff were: R. Austin, F. Brucknak, B. Ferris, H. Soule, B. Ahart, C. Hilbert, P. Vergason, J. Blinn, J. Whitney, B. Hoyt, D. Barrows, J. Overbaugh, W. Howardt, W. Richards, E. Storm, C. Smith, G. Andrews, E. Quick, B. Chaffee, M. Thomas, J. Embody, F. Cook, Edna J. Sullivan, R. Johnson and S. Stevens. Mrs. Rogers, Miss Day and Mrs. Strong have proof read the Broad- caster. School news coverage was supplemented by Beverly Ferris, when she part'olpated in the Ithaca High School Radio Workshop, on March 22, over station W.H.C.U. Beverly boosted C.C.S. activities with a poised and well delivered announcement of current school news. BOY SCOUTS The Boy Scouts of Troop h2 have organized under the able leadership of Mr. Howard Weber and Mr. Keith Tucker. The boys have collected paper and are saving the money toward a trip to camp this coming summer. They go to Camp Barton, on Cayuga Lake. The troop is a part of the Louis-Agassiz Fuertes Council with headquarters in Ithaca. There are sixteen boys registered from this area. The Scouts are going to build a cabin of their own this coming summer, on the Tucker farm. The lumber is now cut and waiting until the boys are free to begin construction. The Troop wants to thank Mr. Weber and Mr. Tucker for their time and interest. The people of Candor also receive the apprecia- tion of the Scouts, in giving them aid with the paper salvage. CAMERA CLUB The camera club, nShutter Bugs of Candor Central Schoolu, was revived in the spring term of this year, after a three and one half year lapse. The purpose of the club is to foster interest in photography among the stu- dents and faculty of C.C.S., to give them in- teresting and useful extra-curricular activ- ity, to improve and display the photographs of the members and to keep a permanent record of school activities. Carlton Smith, a charter member four Years HBO. was elected president, Floyd Estelle, vice-presidentg Donald Weber, SBCPG' taryg Dale Barrows, treasurer, M135 Carey 13 faculty advisor. A junior camera club has also been started for students of the seq- enth and eighth grades. Both clubs are learning to develop films and print pictures. They are obtaining equip- ment and supplies for the darkroom. All mem- bers are very enthusiastic and hope they can continue to improve their equipment and pho- tographic techniques.
