SCOUT POLICY I IS CORDED Y'alley Council Given Approval By Dallas Executive Approval of general policies of the executive board of the Lower Rio Grande Valley Roy Scout Council, and of plans and system at Camp Perry was voiced by James J. Fitch, regional scout executive, at a meet ing of the Board at the Cortez Hotel in Weslaco. This is Mr. Fitch's first visit to the \ alley since the Scout Council! was organized early in 1927. and he expressed satisfatcion at the work that had been acocmpilshed by the Council during the last two years. After handling of routine business.1 Mr. Fitch lead a general discussion by the board of plans for future leadership, program and financing of Council. “The consciousness of citizenship responsibilities and character among hoys is built only through their con tact with the men of the community, whose lives they read in the citizen ship and character of those men,” said Mr. Fitch. “Responsibilities of the Council are two-fold, first it must maintain Scouting on such a basis that boys will want to become members, and create and maintain conditions whereby the big men of the commun ity will be chalengcd to give lead ership to the boys of the community. The poorest excuse that men offer for failing to do their duty is that they haven’t time. Men a ways find time to do the things in which they are interested. Witness the crowd ed condition of our golf links. “Modern conditions aro such that communities can no longer be inter ested only in their own problems, but must take cognisance of the prob lem of their neighbors. The boy problem of Brownsville for instance, can be transported to Mission in two hours* time. Therefore Mission is interested in the sort of leader ship the men of Brownsville arc giv ing Brownsville boys.'* Mr. Fitch also commented on Camp Perry, which he visited yesterday, tailing the Board that the Lower Rio Grande Valley Council had the most difficult camp site as far as situa tion is concerned, and that the build ings and the plans for future devel opment and activities at Camp Perry would stand out as the finest camp accomplishment in the South. Fol lowing the meeting, Mr. Fitch left! for San Antonio. Present at the Board meeting were: , Jim Fitch, regional executive of Dallas; O E. Van Berg, president , of the council, of Mercedes: F.rnest Potent. Mercedes; Dr. R. E. Utley. Harlingen; B. M. Holland. Harlingen; Owen Washington, Browsville; Dr. J. R. Mahore. Edinburg; J. H.
