NoTE: Formal affiliation should be applied for by a community only when such affiliation will make possible greater service to the community by the local council. If the service can be given just as effectively without formal affiliation then there should be no affiliation. A local council should not accept the affiliation of a community at such a distance as to make difficult proper supervision by the council of the work in that community or which would necessitate considerable traveling by the boys in that community.

Report of Activities comnittee *** **** I feel that my report tonight should deal more with the functioning of the troops and Scout Leaders than it should with the more spectacular services that the boys have rendered during the past year. It has been my pleasure and privilege during the past year to have visited the ID.:1.jO:r.ity of the troops in Chickasaw council, and I feel that it is my duty tp report to this organization the exact conditions that I have found. I find an excellent spirit manifest in all the boys, and in the majority of the scoutmasters an ambition to better serve the troops they are leading. However, for some unknown reason, at the present time there is a great dearth in scout L~aders, and we have at the present time six troops without scoutmasters. This lack of scoutmasters is not due to any fault of the Executive or the Head.qu.artersr staff, but is due to the neglect of the parent institution and its failure to meet-its obligations. We have just completed a Scout Leaders• Training school, and I feel sure that some of these vacalicios will be filled by men who completed this school. It is my sincere belief that hereafter no man should be commissioned as scoutmaster who has not attended one of the scout Leaders' Training Schools, or who will in the near future attend one; and, furthermore, that no institution should be granted the privilege of sponsoring a Boy scout Troop unless they can to the satisfaction of the Troop Qrganhation committee show that they intend to furnish a competent scoutmaster and a qualified Troop committee, and who, in the case of vacancies of a scoutmaster or Troop corrmi tteeman, will fill fro.m their own ranks, with the aid and cooperation of the scout Executive, the positions vacated. To my mind troop permanency is a far greater need than new troop organization. V{hat we need in scouting today is quality, not quanity; efficiency, rather than numerical strength. And, so I say that we should carefully scrutinize each application from an organization for a charter for a Boy Scout Troop. To the majority of you men who are not so familiar with the ]oy scout work, I cannot in the short time I have tonight explain what it means to have an untrained scout Lead.er in charge of boys Who are seeking to adopt the Boy scout program to their own use. As concisely as I can put it, it is this: All untrained leader means dissat~ isfied, restless, and mischevious boys, who in a very short period of time will be lost to the :soy scout program and who will have missed .. the greatest thing that scouting teaches, and a boy twelve years old once lost can never be regained. That is the penalty of untrained leadership, or the absolute lack of leadership. ,And, so I say to you �MEMBERS OF EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE CHICK.AS.AW COUNCIL, John E• Rober ts Walte r Lane Smith A•, D.

'I1he time has come for us to supply men who are willing to give l1adership rather than men who have gained for themselves a big name in 'bu.•iness~ This is not a utopian idea 1 btJ,t a cold; practical business 1tateli.lent, and these ideas will be put into force under the new constitution that has been adopted here tonight, and let me ask that you all give 100 percent cooperation i~ putting across this new idea in scouting. I feel sure that under the reports of the various standing committees you will hear of the many meritorious activities the scouts of Memphis have entered into, and so here let me merely name them in the order. in which they came during the year~ and leave to the other gentlemen the privilege of enlarging on this subject: .Anniversay Week Merit Eadge Exposition Placed flags for community Fund and removed same after COlill!IUl.lity Fund Drive Assisted in the office of the Coomunity Fund Ushered at National conference of social Workers at Auditoriuo for one week Ushered for Izaak Walton League Helped Memphis park corm::iission in Halloween celebration Armistice J)ay parade Assisted in unloading cars at "shower" given by the Lighthouse Mission . Distributed posters for Shelby County Tuberculosis society ~oodfellows snnta Claus Club scout Lenders' Round Table Eeing responsible for all of the activities of the council, I Wllllt at this tiue to cor:nend cost heartily the efficient manner in which our Executive has handled the affairs of the council and the splendid spirit that he has developed az;.1ong the leaders m:i.d the scouts in this cor:imuni ty. Nineteen hundred and twenty-eight is gone, the records of that year are written, and now it is tiue for us to turn our eyes towards the possibilities of.1929 to see what outstanding services we can be of during thatyear and what part the scouts a.re going to play in their community. In 1929 scouting will be twenty-one yea.rs old, and in comnemoration of this event there is being held in England sor:ie time in the latter part of the su..'T.ler, a world-wide JaLlboree to which every scout in the united States is invited to attend. The Chickasaw council should be represented at this Jamboree. We were represented by two boys at the last Jamboree, and I feel that we should be represented by two more· at the present Jamboree. The cost of this Jamboree will be about $600.00 per boy, and if we are to be represented by two we should endeavor to secure. by donation enough money to send two boys to England. These two boys may be �adde d to by scou ts who wish to pay thei r own way. If that occa sion rise s 1 t will be so rJUch the bett er for· us. Thes e two boys shou ld be .chos en by indi vidu al cog; >etit ion, c:ind of cour se would go to Engl and only unde r comp etent lead ersh ip, whic h, I belie ve, will be avai lable wher e the Coun cil itse lf does not furn ish a lead er. This is a. r:ia".;ter I feel shou ld be discu ssed , and I hope1 there will be sor:ie disc ussio n on this :oatte:r. enti rely .

Through the courtesy of W.W. cox, the new superviso r of the rood district in which the camp is located, the northwest road through the oarnp has been graded for the first time. During this year there have been a number of barbecues at the c~np, among which was the Civitan club picnic, under the auspices of Troop 33, Get..iroge ther Day for which Wes attended by more than one hundred people. the scouts attracted mere than one hundred and fifty boys to camp, the lurgest number that has ever been in camp at any one time. The Fall Contest during the months of October and November was of tremendou s interest to the This contest was won by Troop 34, while Troop 40 was second, and boys. Troop 1 wes third. The barbecue for the winners of the 1927 F~l contest, which was won by Troop 11 with Troop 34 second, was well attended, and we expect to have another barbecue for the winners of the 1928 contest in the very near future. The camp has been greatly benefitte d by the graveled road which hos been built from the camp entrance to the heedquar ters through the efforts of Mr. Walter Lane smith, Chairman of the Finance committee , who raised the money for this work. Without this road it would be impossibl e to get A new road started by Senator to camp from the highway during wet weather. s.E. Dean, who is a resident of Eudora, has been built from the healiquar ters cabin northward to the extreme north end of the camp, thus making it possible for automobil es to reach every part of the camp. On completio n of the lnke,· it is planned to connect this road and the northwest road by means of a driveway over the dam so that it will be possible to drive to the entire northern end of the camp. �-2- Report of Caup Currier Committee (Continue d) For 1929 ';7e recommend: l, That a lake be built. 2.

At the begin ning of the camp, unusi.ially heavy Memphis, as well as in c~, · cause·l the atten danc e to conti nued ruins i:u. forty -four boys being in camp the first two weaks. Inbe very low, only cap, the avera ge weeld y ·attencla:ace :i.n ca.mp this seaso spite of this hand icompared to sixty -six and a halt~ last year, and there n was seven ty boys as was a total of. 211 boys in CaJl!P durin g the seaso n as compared with 192 last seaso n. $657.43 was spent for equipment this year, which inclu ded the price of a comp lete set of tools for the carpe ntry shop. This is $247 .70 more than was spen t for equipment last seaso n. In addi tion to this, Mra. M· J. Spea rs donat ed $100 .00 which was used to purch ase a new Fairb anksMors e me z 2 horse power engj.ne for $56. 00, and a new for $40. 00. This engine was a const ant sourc e of pleas ure, as it gave ce.noe splen did servi ce throu ghout the seaso n and an abundance of wate r was always avail able, which has not been the case in the past due to a fault y engin e. The heal th of the boys was very~good cepti on of five cases of Mala ria. The grea test precathrou gh camp with the exvent Mala ria, and 120 gallo ns of crude oil were used ution was taken to pre·wate r withi n a radiu s of one-h alf m.Ue of ca.mp. This to spray the stagnai1t oil as was used last seaso n. The boys _also sprl'lyed thewas abou t twice as much viciu i ty of the Girl scou t camp as a "good turn" , and thoy also cond ucted a hunt for breed:.l.ng place s of mosqu.itoea in the vicin ity of the Girl scou t comp, the same as th~y did at Kamp Kia Kima. There were on:).y two serio us aiJcid ents, one boy susta 5ning a sever e cut in his right knee and anoth er·ha ving his right fore ~rm broken, each accid ent being caused by a fa.ll while runn ing. we are pa:i.~ticulci.rly proud of the camp 's recor d in prev entin g infec tion this sea.co n. Each louge was equ.ipped with a bottl e of mercurochrome, which the boys used frequ ently and which was doub tless large ly respo nsibl e for the lack of jnfec tion. No boys were sent home .with infec ted legs or other infec tions this seaso n. Du.ring this year Kamp Kia Kima has made wonderful prog:; :-ess in build ing cons truct ion, due to the gen• rosit y af' Mr. Edwa rd M. Salom on, vho gave $1,50 0.00 for the cons truct ion of a two- story head quart ers ledge rr.ade of nativ e stone , and ta nr. Max Goltman, who gave $200 . 00 for the cons truct ion af' a stone lodge . Kamp Kia Kima now has all stone lodge s, a stone hea.dq11.arters lodge , and a stone visit ors lodge , The wooden build ings in camp are the mes~ hall, recre ation hall, hosp ital, and the wareh ouse. The new head quart ers was of tremendous help to the camp Dire ctor this seaso n, as it is something that has been badly needed for a number of years . �-2- Report of Kamp Kia Kima committee continued we recon:mend the following as necessary for the continued progress of Kamp Kia Kima: 1. That a tennis court be built of concrete. 2. That a new recreatio n hall be built. 3. That plans be n:ad.e to secure a new mess hall within the ne:xt. two years. 4 •. ~ot a shower bath be instaJ.led. so that all boys in camp will have the cpportuni ty for bathing. 5. 1hat a restrictio n be placed on visitors and the length of their sta.y. 6. That a thoroughl y experienc ed Mess sergeant be employed. A really good Mess sergeant at a salary of $75 •. 00 for the season will not only help in the preparati on and selection of the food served, but will save m~ney for the c~. 7. That the woodwork on all lodges be painted green before the new season. 8. That Headquar ters building be entirely screened, as there are no screens in it at present. 9. That curtains be purchased for the Reception Room at Headquarters, and that the room be fixed. up as attractiv ely as possible for reception of visitors. 10. That new screen doors be put on eight lodges, a.~d that the remaining eight doors be screened. In screening these doors ond in installin g now doors, one-inch mesh chicken wire placAd ov.ar the screen would be of much ass is tanc a in preserving the ~ife of the doors as it will prevent boys from pushing holes in the wire when they open the door. Also a wooden piece should be put across these doors on the inside so that the boys will push the door open on the wood insteai of on the wire. 1 11. That a new Handicra ft $hop be built. 12. That a new Hospital be built, and that a latrine be a part of the equip~ent. In the hospital or adjacent to it there should be a shower bath for use of the boys in ca.mp who are not sick. This could be a small room of stone and would not be very expensive . �-3- Report of Kao.!;> Kia KirJa coor:iittee continued 13. That at least two fire extiugu:i.shers be purcha.sed, as there iit no fi:re protection in ca.mp with the exception of water. 14.

At this schoo l a number of boys as well as men were train ed, and it has. been the means of insur ing the permanency of the two negro troop s which were formed durin g the year. For 1929 we urge that Chickasaw counc every effor t to secur e addit ional scout Leade rs, and when il make these leade rs have been found to conduct suffi cient train ing schoo train these men prope rly, as we do not believ e troop:; will ls to be manent unles s led by traine d leade rs. we reque st the Dfumber perof the counc il to advis e us whenever a candi date for Scout .~i ship is avail able, so that we may get in touch with him andmaste.rarrange a traini ng schoo l for his bene fit.

When this carap was purchased. the boys were promised a lake and the major ity of the troops • ca.bins are built near the propos lake site. It seems to me that ov.r counc il is moral ly bound to build ed a lake in 1929, espec ially as thls projec t has been in view for over four years. Your Execu tive has had loyal and unself ish suppo rt, as well advice from Presid ent John E. Rober ts, as he has been untiri ng in as sound effort s to aid the Dow:icil to progre ss, I want to take this opporhis tunity to thank him for his excell ent suppo rt and help. I also want to thank Commissioner Ross A.

This is the white boys real challenge to our counc il, espec ially as there are 58 church es in Memph which have never sponsored a scout troop. We should have at least is alone 15 new troops and 3QO new scouts and let me urge that the counc il exert every effort to secure this increa se during the year 1929. This can be done if men can be found to lead the boys so I recommend that Traini ng Schoo scout Leade rs be conducted by the counc il at least twice each year, ls for traine d leader ship means troop permanency, Troops organi zed withou as ed leader s are seldom pdrma:nent and troop morta lity can largel y be t traintraced to the lack of traine d scoutm asters . �RJl.:POHT OF SCUUT lWClYrIVE 12-31-27. The Chickasaw council now has Forty-six (46) active troops. and has a total enrollment of 1171 scouts. 1hree troons in the C0u11cil are now wi thou.t scoutuasters, but I hope that within ~ few weeks t11er;,e tr.oops wil 1 all have scou trnasters.

He h:s been lllltiring in his efforts to serve the Coundl, o.nd has always been willing to --lend a helping hand to everyone. His advice has alw~··s been sound, nnd his energy unlimited. I also want ·to thank Cornnissioner .Tchn E. Roberts and Deputy Con:rmissioner.s .Allen Hu hes, 'l'l:1or::ias Hu.,'ii.es &nd \'iilla.rd Hays :for their splendid cooperat:ton. They have given unselfishly of their time and. have beco;',,e r1;reat assets ·of the Chickasaw Council, and it is only because of such ::en as t."ese that �-2- the Executive has single-handed been able to handle the problems of the council. On the other hand, the work of the Execu.tive :soard of the Council has These men have alw~s been willing and ready to serve when called on. and as long as such men as these are members of the EXeau.t.ive :Board, scouting is going to be a $UCcess in the city of Memph~s. However, instead of merely the :EXecu.tive Board being interested in scout• ing and being willing to give their time to it, some way should be devised the entire Chickasaw Cow1cil. to interest not only the EXeco.tive Board been very beneficial. out Kamp Kia Kima needs sorneOAe in authority at the head 'of camp. someone who can preserve discipline at all times and properly direct the camp both from a recreational and tiriancial standpoint, someone who will be present at all times, and I feel t.hat after having operated Ka.rap Kia Kioa from Memphis for two years, that the Exec'lltive is the proper person to clirect the activities of Kia Kirna. This has been tried in most of the Cou.11cils over the country r:!lld has proven very successful. scouting in M~mphis 1:'1111" not. suf:fier from the 1;:.xecu~ive being at .K8'11p Kia Kima, i'or during the summer months there is li·ttle at l'Jemphis to demand his special attention, and the routine of the of::ice cou.ld be successfully handled by the office eta.ff. I therefore heartily recorm1end that the .i;;xecu.tive be made the Qa."llp Director with full power to operate Kamp Kia Kima. The council is now conducting a Scout Leaders•. Training School. It is highly important that tl;te men who are to be Scoutmasters: or Scout r.eaders should be trained in scouting• and while this Training School is somewhat of ~m expense to the council.,. it is very desirable and I heartil~r recommend 'that it be made a part of eueh yeart s program. and that the men who a.re ~>coutmastera and have never taken this training be required to take the course. and that those desiring to. be scoutmasters be asked to · telte this training before assuming charge of a troop. 'l1hree stores. in the city o;f Memphis; namely, the Netv :Brys, Phil .A.,,. Halle, and J. Goldsmith and sons. are hendling scout supplies, ur1iforms, imd equipment. an.ct. their cooperation with scout Headquarters has been very good. l!he New :srys, during the year 1927, put· on one of the best :;scouting exhibit ions that I .have seen in a long time, and I bdieve was of such nature as to be ·very beneficial to scouting. They further presented the Chickasaw c01..meil with 5,000 scout blotters. which were very acceptable. and have been of great use to us in advertising the scout movement in this city. The three stores f'u.rt;h.er cooperated with Headquarters during the .AJJ.niversary week by the use of display windows. and by putting ::aoy scout stickers in the .outgoing mail. The New Br,;ys used 12.500; Phil A. Halle, i.ooo; and J. Goldsmith and sons, 2,000. 1l'his has been very beneficial to the Council, and has been appreciated very till.ch.

Willard Hays, Mr. Joe Flanagan, Mr. :Ben Coffey and ?.ir. W.F. Heiskell for their splendid work in conducting the scwut Leaders Training School which closed on NoveL1ber 24th a.nd which was the direct cause of securing four new scoutraasters as well as training nine other men for scoutmastership•, Chickasaw Council started scouting among negro boys in the early part of 1928 and this movement has been a.~ unqualified success. The negroes have not only taken keen interest in the work but they have conducted themselves so well that there has been no friction whatsoever between the negro troops and the white troops. ~here has been no objection by white ScoutmBsters or Scouts as to the formation of these two negro troops and in 1929 I suggest that four or more negro troops be organized. In planning the work of the council for 1929 I recommend: l. That two or more Training schools for white leaders be conducted. 2. That at least one Training School for negro leaders bo conducted. 3. That all members of the council report to council Headquarters the names of o.en whom they con-sider to be fit cv.ndid«tcs for scoutrnastership. f· 4. That a lake be built v.t cor.-:p currier. 5. That a reliable means of transportation to camp currier be arranged so that troops will have easy access to the car:'.!P at all times. 6. That at least eight boys representing the council attend the Third International Jwnboree which will be held in Arrowe Park, Eirhenhead, England from July 3Q to August 14th, 1929 at which at least 1,000 1v:cricon scouts are expected to attend. 7. That throUf'Jl educati ono.l publicity and other c.eans Dn• organized effort be made to educate the public at large and especially heads of churches and other institutions, as to the values of scouting, and by so doing to assist in the formation of additional troops. 8. That Sea Scouting be given a proIJ.inent place ~n council activities and a sailboat secured for the use of the Sea scouts. scouting is a vital force in community welfare and is tremendously helpful as a supplenent to the work of the Churches. In conclusion I want to thank each and every one of you gentlemen who have so materially helped in working out the scout prograu and I earnestly request your continued help and support in making scouting available to the boys of the Council area.

Report of Activities comnittee * * * * * * * I feel that my report tonight should deal more with the functioning of the troops and Scout Leaders than it should with the more spectacular services that the boys have rendered during the past year. It has been my pleasure and privilege during the past year to have visited the ID.:1.jO:r.ity of the troops in Chickasaw council, and I feel that it is my duty tp report to this organization the exact conditions that I have found. I find an excellent spirit manifest in all the boys, and in the majority of the scoutmasters an ambition to better serve the troops they are leading. However, for some unknown reason, at the present time there is a great dearth in scout L~aders, and we have at the present time six troops without scoutmasters. This lack of scoutmasters is not due to any fault of the Executive or the Head.qu.artersr staff, but is due to the neglect of the parent institution and its failure to meet-its obligations. We have just completed a Scout Leaders• Training school, and I feel sure that some of these vacalicios will be filled by men who completed this school. It is my sincere belief that hereafter no man should be commissioned as scoutmaster who has not attended one of the scout Leaders' Training Schools, or who will in the near future attend one; and, furthermore, that no institution should be granted the privilege of sponsoring a Boy scout Troop unless they can to the satisfaction of the Troop Qrganhation committee show that they intend to furnish a competent scoutmaster and a qualified Troop committee, and who, in the case of vacancies of a scoutmaster or Troop corrmi tteeman, will fill fro.m their own ranks, with the aid and cooperation of the scout Executive, the positions vacated. To my mind troop permanency is a far greater need than new troop organization. V{hat we need in scouting today is quality, not quanity; efficiency, rather than numerical strength. And, so I say that we should carefully scrutinize each application from an organization for a charter for a Boy Scout Troop. To the majority of you men who are not so familiar with the ]oy scout work, I cannot in the short time I have tonight explain what it means to have an untrained scout Lead.er in charge of boys Who are seeking to adopt the Boy scout program to their own use. As concisely as I can put it, it is this: All untrained leader means dissat~ isfied, restless, and mischevious boys, who in a very short period of time will be lost to the :soy scout program and who will have missed .. the greatest thing that scouting teaches, and a boy twelve years old once lost can never be regained. That is the penalty of untrained leadership, or the absolute lack of leadership. ,And, so I say to you MEMBERS OF EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE l\ ~)'' \ -"\ -y CHICK.AS.AW COUNCIL, :a. s.A.

'I1he time has come for us to supply men who are willing to give l1adership rather than men who have gained for themselves a big name in 'bu.•iness~ This is not a utopian idea 1 btJ,t a cold; practical business 1tateli.lent, and these ideas will be put into force under the new constitution that has been adopted here tonight, and let me ask that you all give 100 percent cooperation i~ putting across this new idea in scouting. I feel sure that under the reports of the various standing committees you will hear of the many meritorious activities the scouts of Memphis have entered into, and so here let me merely name them in the order. in which they came during the year~ and leave to the other gentlemen the privilege of enlarging on this subject: .Anniversay Week Merit Eadge Exposition Placed flags for community Fund and removed same after COlill!IUl.lity Fund Drive Assisted in the office of the Coomunity Fund Ushered at National conference of social Workers at Auditoriuo for one week Ushered for Izaak Walton League Helped Memphis park corm::iission in Halloween celebration Armistice J)ay parade Assisted in unloading cars at "shower" given by the Lighthouse Mission . Distributed posters for Shelby County Tuberculosis society ~oodfellows snnta Claus Club scout Lenders' Round Table Eeing responsible for all of the activities of the council, I Wllllt at this tiue to cor:nend cost heartily the efficient manner in which our Executive has handled the affairs of the council and the splendid spirit that he has developed az;.1ong the leaders m:i.d the scouts in this cor:imuni ty. Nineteen hundred and twenty-eight is gone, the records of that year are written, and now it is tiue for us to turn our eyes towards the possibilities of.1929 to see what outstanding services we can be of during thatyear and what part the scouts a.re going to play in their community. In 1929 scouting will be twenty-one yea.rs old, and in comnemoration of this event there is being held in England sor:ie time in the latter part of the su..'T.ler, a world-wide JaLlboree to which every scout in the united States is invited to attend. The Chickasaw council should be represented at this Jamboree. We were represented by two boys at the last Jamboree, and I feel that we should be represented by two more· at the present Jamboree. The cost of this Jamboree will be about $600.00 per boy, and if we are to be represented by two we should endeavor to secure. by donation enough money to send two boys to England. These two boys may be added to by scouts who wish to pay their own way. If that occasion rises 1 t will be so rJUch the better for· us. These two boys should be .chosen by individual cog;>etition, c:ind of course would go to England only under competent leadership, which, I believe, will be available where the Council itself does not furnish a leader. This is a. r:ia".;ter I feel should be discussed, and I hope1 there will be sor:ie discussion on this :oatte: r. entirely. In closing I would like to SB:il that I believe the entire functioning of the Co'9Dcil is in the best shape that. it has ever been, and I feel sure that there are greater things ahead of us in J.929.

Report of Camp Currier Committee. ~e Camp currier conmi ttee reports that during the past year some progr~ Be ~s been made in the camp, but we do not feel that this camp will ~vor reach the full extent of its usefulness until a lake is built. When this Bite was purchased, the scouts were told that a lake would be built, ond we believe the council is morally bound to build this lake during 1S29 a1 the ca.mp is now four years old and this important feature should not be poatponed any longer. Most of the troops have built cabins on the proposed lake site, and they expect us to build the lake. '!here is now a gravel road from Memphis to the headquarters cabin, thiB being the first year that we have enjoyed a hard surface road all the WIJ¥ to camp. Through the courtesy of W.W. cox, the new supervisor of the rood district in which the camp is located, the northwest road through the oarnp has been graded for the first time. During this year there have been a number of barbecues at the c~np, among which was the Civitan club picnic, under the auspices of Troop 33, which Wes attended by more than one hundred people. Get..irogether Day for the scouts attracted mere than one hundred and fifty boys to camp, the lurgest number that has ever been in camp at any one time. The Fall Contest during the months of October and November was of tremendous interest to the boys. This contest was won by Troop 34, while Troop 40 was second, and Troop 1 wes third. The barbecue for the winners of the 1927 F~l contest, which was won by Troop 11 with Troop 34 second, was well attended, and we expect to have another barbecue for the winners of the 1928 contest in the very near future. The camp has been greatly benefitted by the graveled road which hos been built from the camp entrance to the heedquarters through the efforts of Mr. Walter Lane smith, Chairman of the Finance committee, who raised the money for this work. Without this road it would be impossible to get to camp from the highway during wet weather. A new road started by Senator s.E. Dean, who is a resident of Eudora, has been built from the healiquarters cabin northward to the extreme north end of the camp, thus making it possible for automobiles to reach every part of the camp. On completion of the lnke,· it is planned to connect this road and the northwest road by means of a driveway over the dam so that it will be possible to drive to the entire northern end of the camp. -2- Report of Caup Currier Committee (Continued) For 1929 ';7e recommend: l, That a lake be built. 2. That the council arrange sane Deans of transportation for the boys from the end of the Florida street carline to the ca.op. 3. ~at every effort be rnad.e to bring this camp to the greatest deg:rae of use:t'~1lness for all of the scouts cf Meri!Jhis and especially t.i1cse vine- con.not go to Kar,1]? Kia Kitla. 4, That all troops oe encouraged to build or complete their cabins so that each troop can have its own troop headquarters in camp. Respectively submitted, CAMP CUBRIER COMMI TT.EE BY Ben parker Chairman CHICKASAW COUNCIL, B. S. A. ANNUAL MEETING DEC. 13, 1928. Report of Civic Relations Conmittee The civic Relations Committee reports that during the past year the scouts have been of vast assistance to numerous organlzations in Memphis. During the comnuni ty Fund Drive they placed posters in the windows of the principal stores throughout the downtown district, and also distributed posters to the various churches. They put flag poles in the sidewalks on the principal downtown streets, and then placed American Flags and conmuni ty Fund Flags on these poles. After the Drive they removed these flags and returned them to the community Fund. On several occasions scouts have distributed posters for the Shelby county TUberculosis society. They have also helped the Lighthouse Mission in assembling food for the poor. During the National conference of social Workers Scouts, acted as ushers at each session for one week, and also distributed programs. on Halloween scout troops assisted the Memphis Park Commission in their programs at the various playgrounds. scouts have ':1lso served as ushers for the Izaak Wal ton League, and at a :S. Y.P .• U. meeting at which Governor Horton spoke. For 1929 we recommend thnt scouts do every civic good turn possible, but we also re commend that the scout Executive be authorized to refuse to send scouts to organizations which in his judgement are calling for boys needlessly or who nre using scouts for indoor work which is not liked by the boys. During the year numerous requests have been made for scouts to serve in parades Cllld functions which were commercial entirely, and which this committee has had to refuse. Hence, we recommend that all requests for use of our boys be carefully considered by the committee before approval. Respectfully submitted, CIVIC RELATIONS COMMITTEE BY John T. Morgan Chairman.

ANNUAL ME~ nm DEC. 13 t 1928. -·--......................... ··- Kamp Kia Kima closed its 13th season with the best financial record it has ever hrul., as the ca.mp only had a deficit of $.1.41. 77 for t.h.1 season. At the beginning of the camp, unusi.ially heavy continued ruins i:u. Memphis, as well as in c~, · cause·l the attendance to be very low, only forty-four boys being in camp the first two weaks. In spite of this handicap, the average weeldy ·attencla:ace :i.n ca.mp this season was seventy boys as compared to sixty-six and a halt~ last year, and there was a total of. 211 boys in CaJl!P during the season as compared with 192 last season. $657.43 was spent for equipment this year, which included the price of a complete set of tools for the carpentry shop. This is $247.70 more than was spent for equipment last season. In addition to this, Mra. M· J. Spears donated $100.00 which was used to purchase a new Fairbanks-Morse me z 2 horse power engj.ne for $56. 00, and a new ce.noe for $40. 00. This engine was a constant source of pleasure, as it gave splendid service throughout the season and an abundance of water was always available, which has not been the case in the past due to a faulty engine. The health of the boys was very~good through camp with the exception of five cases of Malaria. The greatest precaution was taken to pre·vent Malaria, and 120 gallons of crude oil were used to spray the stagnai1t water within a radius of one-half m.Ue of ca.mp. This was about twice as much oil as was used last season. The boys _also sprl'lyed the viciui ty of the Girl scout camp as a "good turn", and thoy also conducted a hunt for breed:.l.ng places of mosqu.itoea in the vicinity of the Girl scout comp, the same as th~y did at Kamp Kia Kima. There were on:).y two serious aiJcidents, one boy susta5ning a severe cut in his right knee and another·having his right fore ~rm broken, each accident being caused by a fa.ll while running. we are pa:i.~ticulci.rly proud of the camp's record in preventing infection this sea.con. Each louge was equ.ipped with a bottle of mercurochrome, which the boys used frequently and which was doubtless largely responsible for the lack of jnfection. No boys were sent home.with infected legs or other infections this season. Du.ring this year Kamp Kia Kima has made wonderful prog:;:-ess in building construction, due to the gen•rosity af' Mr. Edward M. Salomon, vho gave $1,500.00 for the construction of a two-story headquarters ledge rr.ade of native stone, and ta nr. Max Goltman, who gave $200. 00 for the construction af' a stone lodge. Kamp Kia Kima now has all stone lodges, a stone hea.dq11.arters lodge, and a stone visitors lodge, The wooden buildings in camp are the mes~ hall, recreation hall, hospital, and the warehouse. The new headquarters was of tremendous help to the camp Director this season, as it is something that has been badly needed for a number of years. -2- Report of Kamp Kia Kima committee continued we recon:mend the following as necessary for the continued progress of Kamp Kia Kima: 1. That a tennis court be built of concrete. 2. That a new recreation hall be built. 3. That plans be n:ad.e to secure a new mess hall within the ne:xt. two years. 4 •. ~ot a shower bath be instaJ.led. so that all boys in camp will have the cpportuni ty for bathing. 5. 1hat a restriction be placed on visitors and the length of their sta.y. 6. That a thoroughly experienced Mess sergeant be employed. A really good Mess sergeant at a salary of $75 •. 00 for the season will not only help in the preparation and selection of the food served, but will save m~ney for the c~. 7. That the woodwork on all lodges be painted green before the new season. 8. That Headquarters building be entirely screened, as there are no screens in it at present. 9. That curtains be purchased for the Reception Room at Headquarters, and that the room be fixed. up as attractively as possible for reception of visitors. 10. That new screen doors be put on eight lodges, a.~d that the remaining eight doors be screened. In screening these doors ond in installing now doors, one-inch mesh chicken wire placAd ov.ar the screen would be of much ass is tanc 1a in preserving the ~ife of the doors as it will prevent boys from pushing holes in the wire when they open the door. Also a wooden piece should be put across these doors on the inside so that the boys will push the door open on the wood insteai of on the wire. 11. That a new Handicraft $hop be built. 12. That a new Hospital be built, and that a latrine be a part of the equip~ent. In the hospital or adjacent to it there should be a shower bath for use of the boys in ca.mp who are not sick. This could be a small room of stone and would not be very expensive. -3- Report of Kao.!;> Kia KirJa coor:iittee continued 13. That at least two fire extiugu:i.shers be purcha.sed, as there iit no fi:re protection in ca.mp with the exception of water. 14. That a Handicrc.ft Expert be secured and placed in charge of the shop 8nd tools for next season, and that more intenstve work be done. 15. That a new latrine be built on the east side of camp. 16.

Report of Inter Racial Activities com:.1ittee . ******* The committee on Inter Racial Activities, composed of Messrs. Bolton Smith, Allen Hughes, Jr., and nyself, was appointed by the President and authorized to organize two colored Boy scout Troops and to see that Scouting was presented in its proper light to the CTembers of the colored race. This committee irNuediately secured the services of J.A. Beauchamp, Assistant Field Director of Inter Racial Activities, acting under Mr. Stanley Harris, Uational Director of Inter Racial Activities, and authorized him to conduct a scant Leaders Training school for negro loaders. This Training School was held at the Booker T. Washington School nnd lasted for one ~eek, and was attended by some fifteen colored leaders. The colored Advisory co:-.mi ttee was then organized consisting of G.P. Hamiltan, Henry c. Daniels, M.s. Stewart, W.E. Foote, ~ind Alonza Locke, after which two troops of colored scouts were organized, one in the central Baptist Church ni1d one in the Centenary Methodist Church. These troops were regtJ.larly inspected 1.-.nd visi tcd by l:lembers of the cor11i ttee and after four r:ionths of successful operation were grlll'lted charters by Chickasaw Council, Boy Scouts of NJerica, with the understanding that they would not purchase uniforms until permission of the council was obtained. Your CoLlrlittee reports that the character of the leadership has been most excellent, that the spirit of cooperation has been good and that the activities of the boys have been excellent and your Committee feels and recoranends that they be authorized to organize four or more other GOlored scout Troops in churches to be selected by the comnittee. Your conmittee further reports that there should be careful supervision by the Committee and that they procure the services of J.A. Eeauchar.:?p at once for another Scout Leaders Training school.

Report of publicity Qomnittee * * * * * * "' YO!.lr Comnittee reports that during 1928 the Memphis pressscimitar has given splendid cooperation by running a one-quarter page known as the 11 scout press-Scimitar" once each week. Th.is page is widely reaA by the scouts, and is of mu.ch assistance to council Head.quarters in keeping all of the scouts informed of the various activities. The Memphis Evening Appeal for the last few months has been giving us a considerable amount of space, and this is also greatly appreciated. During the Merit Badge EXPOsition,the comnercial ,Appeal printed several editorials and notices of this event, and afterwards ran pictures of the three winning booths in the rotogravure section of the pa~ per. The comnercial Appeal was also very good in publishing news of Kamp Kia Kima•s acti·vities during the summer months. The scouts aided the community Fund in securing publicity by putting on two first aid demonstrations on south court street during the community FU.nd Drive. Each of these demonstrations attracted a large crowd and gave considerable help to the publicity campaign of the fund. council Headquarters publishes a bulletin each week, which ·is known as the 11 council Fire". Th.is bulletin is aen t to all of the scoutmasters, Assistant scoutmasters, and Chairmen of the Troop committees. The council has rece:;,1tly purchased a mimeoscope, as well as an addressograph, and in the f·<J.t;u::e it is planned to enlarge the '1 council Fire" so that it may be of more use to the scoutmasters and othe:i.~s to whom it is sent. For the coming year we recomnend that especial efforts be made to secure additional space in the newspapers and that editorials, news items, and other publicity features be used as often as possible. We believe that news articles which are educational to the general public as to the value of scouting should be used as often as possible,as we find that the majority of the people of Memphis do not know the true aims and ideals of scouting. we also recon:mend that the council members assist scout Headquarters in securing publicity and also in using publicity as a help toward the education of the public~ Respectfully submitted, PUBLICITY OOMMITrEE. :SY Edward M. Salomon Chairman. ..Qfil.Q!μSAW COUNCIL, :B. S. A. ANNO.AL MEETING DEC. 13. 1928. Report of Reading Committee Your comnittee reports that there is a considerable interest in :BOYS' LIFE, the official magazine of the ]oy scouts of America and that a number of troops have taken adt·antage of the offer of one-half price when fifty percent of the troop subscribes for the magazine at the time the troop is registered., This magazine is of especial interest to boys, and it is being rapidly improved. several of our boys are deeply interested in aviation and quite a number of them are becoming interested. A special Aviation Department has been created in BOYS' LIFE and this will doubtless be of much interest to many Memphis scouts. Last year the books sent to Kamp Kia Kima were not all. interesting subjects to boys, and this yeHr the selection was more carefully ma.de so that the books were of interest to the scouts in camp and they were very widely read. Also a large nurnber of Merit Badge pamphlets were available in camp and these were used extensively. In the bulletin issued by iteadquarters and known as 11 The Council Fire" attention has been called to various subjects and items in BOYS' LIFE with the idea of encouraging our boys to read as it is a proven fact that information gathered from the printed page is more readily absorbed by a boy than any other method of teaching. Jor 1929 we recommend that all boys be encouraged to read BOYS' LIFE as well as good books. We suggest that book lists of selected books be furnished them and that the Council's Reading Cammi ttee cooperate with the school libraries as well as the public li braries in an endeavor to promote worth while reading, We also recommend that camp libraries be established at both Kamp Kia Kfr·,a and Camp currier, with a number of good books owned by the camp in addition to the books which are supplied by the Cossitt Library. .Any member of tho council having a surplus of books will greatly benefit these camps by donating to them. we would also appreciate the donation of magazines for Camp currier, as they would be very useful, especially on rainy days, We suggest to the incoming president that in appointing the next Reading committee due regard be given to the appointment of persons especially interested in Training, Camping, court of Honor and publicity and that one member be appointed to represent the schools and one the libraries. Respectfully submitted READING COMMITI'EE By Bolton Smith Chairman. QHIOKASAW COUNCIL, :B. S. A. ANNUAL MEETING DEC. 13, 1928. Report of Training Comnittee. * * * * * * Your comnittee reports that only one school for training Scout Leaders was conducted by the council this year, but this school was very success~ul. Fourteen men took the Minimum course of the Five-Year Training Program. Of these men three are now serving as scoutmasters; two are now serving as Assistant scoutmasters j two are now serving as Chairmen of Troop comnittees; and, three are prospective Scoutmasters for new troops·. These men were . very enthusiastic over the training, and the attendance at the school was exceptional. your Committee also conducted a Training School for Negro scout Leaders under the direction of J. A. Beauchamp, Assistant to Mr. Stanley A· Harris, National Director of Inter-Racial Activities. At this school a number of boys as well as men were trained, and it has. been the means of insuring the permanency of the two negro troops which were formed during the year. For 1929 we urge that Chickasaw council make every effort to secure additional scout Leaders, and when these leaders have been found to conduct sufficient training schools to train these men properly, as we do not believe troop:; will be permanent unless led by trained leaders. we request the Dfumber.~i of the council to advise us whenever a candidate for Scoutmaste.rship is available, so that we may get in touch with him and arrange a training school for his benefit. We recommend that another training school for negroes be conducted in the near future l;Uld that at this scb.ooi sufficient negro leaders are trained to take care of the number of troops which are authorized by the council at this meeting. we believe J. A· Beauchamp can be secured to conduct this school, and that it will be the means of promoting the work among negro boys. Respectfully subnitted, TRAINING COMMITTEE. BY Allen Hughes 1 Jr. Chairman. CHICKASAW COUNCIL, B. $, A. ANNUAL ME1J!JTING DEC. 13, 1928. Report of Troop organization committee * * * * ... * * * ******** There were three troops organized during 1928. They are as follows : Troop NO. 55 (Sea Scout) Troop No. 27 Troop No. 38 Idlewild Presbyterian Church Decatur street Christian Church Larmar Heights Pres. Church There were two troops formed of negro boys as follows: Troop NO. 100 Troop No. 101 Centenary Methodist Church central Eaptist Church For 1929, we recommend that at least fifteen new troops be formed among white boys and as many colored troops as is deemed advisable by the President of the council. However, we recommend that the institution furnish its own leadership when organizing a new troop and that the leaders appointed by the institution receive training before being allowed to take charge Of the troop. We believe there is a great deal better chance for troop permanency if the scoutmaster has received the training required in the Minimum course of the "Five Year Training Program" and believe that if this policy is followed. the troops which are established in 1929 will continue on a sound basis instead of dying gradually as is the case when lead by untrained men. 'lb.ere are eight churches who have indicated that they desire a scout Troop but organization has not been attempted on account of lack of leadership. We urge the Council to do everything possible to secure scout leaders as scouting cannot progress unless leaders are available. Respectfully submitted, TROOP ORGANIZATION COMMITTEE. :SY M. E. Finch Qhairm.an CH!C~W COUNCit, B. S• A. ANNUAL MEETING - DECEMBER 13, 1928. Report of scout Executive *"!*"'**** Chickasaw council now has 44 troops of white boys and 2 troops of negro boys with a total enrollment of 1,137 scouts. These boys are receiving the benefit of splendid training from their scoutmasters and are d9ing very fine work. The Memphis Rotary Club, under the leadership of :'r. Seddon Allen, president and Mr. George V. Klimes, General Chairman of the Rotary Committee, sponsored the first Merit Badge Exposition in Memphis and in Region 5. This was the most outstanding event in the history of Memphis scouting• The Memphis Rotary Club offered $165.00 in prizes and the West H.all of the Auditorium was used to house 37 booths in which the troops demonstrated and exhibited the various Merit Badge subjects. }~ore than.11,0CO p~ople attended the Exposition including the Regional Executive and scout Executives from five councils. Chickasaw council has received a fine amount of publicity from this event, as Mr. iiarold w. Lewman, Regional Executive, has sent programs an.a other data regarding the Exposition to all of the councils in the Region in an endeavor to stimlilate them to similar activities. Due to the generosity of the Rotary. club hundreds of free tickets were distributed so that all boys in Memphis might have the opportunity of seeing the EJCposi ti on. T.i.lorefore, the Exposition lost about $500.00, which the Rotary Club paid. We are deeply indebted to the Rotarians for this splendid cooperation in showing the public what scouts can do and I want to thank Mr. Allen and Mr. Klimes for their untiring efforts which made the Exposition such a wonderful success. Ka.mp Kia Kima closed its most successful year in 1928 and this in spitlt of obstacles caused by high water at the beginning of the camping season which materially lessened the attendance during the first two weeks. Through the generosity of Mr. Edward M. Salomon, Kia Kima now has a beautiful two story Headquarters Lodge built of native stone. This building has been needed for a number of years and we are tremendously indebted to Mr. Salomon for it, as it is one of the finest buildings I have ever seen in a scout Camp. Dr. Max Goltman donated a fine stone lodge to the camp and this is deeply appreciated, as it completes the buildings necessary to house all of the boys in stone lodges. During the year our scouts have rendered aid to many civic enterprises and their good turns have been appreciated by the numerous organizations which have been helped. The boys have done splendid work and have always responded when called on to aid the community Fund Drive, Shelby county TUberculosis society and others. -2- R~ort of !cout Executive C~ Currier is becoming increasingly valuable to our scouts but I do not believe it will ever reach the fullest extent of its usefulness until a lake is built. When this carap was purchased. the boys were promised a lake and the majority of the troops• ca.bins are built near the proposed lake site. It seems to me that ov.r council is morally bound to build a lake in 1929, especially as thls project has been in view for over four years. Your Executive has had loyal and unselfish support, as well as sound advice from President John E. Roberts, as he has been untiring in his efforts to aid the Dow:icil to progress, I want to take this opportunity to thank him for his excellent support and help. I also want to thank Commissioner Ross A. Mathews and ;~ssistant commissioner Allen Hughes, Jr. for their splendid cooperation, as they have devoted their time freely and gladly in helping to handle the problems of the council. They have at all times worked with your Executive and have done everything they could to build scouting in Me!T.$)his. It has been a pleasure to work with the members of the Advisory Board, for these gentlemen have not only l)een willing and ready to serve when called on, but have continuall~' woi:k~d for the betterment of the council in trying to assist your Executive in any and a.11 undertakings. I sincerely hope tha.t in 1929 a large m .. u:1ber of the council Members will take an active part in helping our boys to become men of character trained for citizenship, Memphis has three official outfitters, namely, The New Bry•s, J. Goldsmith & sons co. and Phil A. Halle. These firms have cooperated whenever possible, the New Bryt s through Mr. Edward M. Salomon, having given especially fine assistance to the council in furni.sh5.ng space for the National council Exhibit of scout Equipment and also furnishing the services of Rotan-Tonka, the Ojibway Indian, who spent the month of March working with Girl and Boy scouts and other civic bodies. ci.:ticl><:.suw council• s area; which is Shelby county, Tennessee and Desoto county, Mississippi, has a population of about 303,QOO and of this number approximately 12,000 are boys of scout age, that is from 12 to 15 inclusive. 32% of the population is negro, therefore, there are a.bout 8,000 white boys and 4,COO negro boys who are eligible for scouting. This is the real challenge to our council, especially as there are 58 churches in Memphis alone which have never sponsored a scout troop. We should have at least 15 new troops and 3QO new scouts and let me urge that the council exert every effort to secure this increase during the year 1929. This can be done if men can be found to lead the boys so I recommend that Training Schools for scout Leaders be conducted by the council at least twice each year, as trained leadership means troop permanency, Troops organized without trained leaders are seldom pdrma:nent and troop mortality can largely be traced to the lack of trained scoutmasters. RJl.:POHT OF SCUUT lWClYrIVE 12-31-27. The Chickasaw council now has Forty-six (46) active troops. and has a total enrollment of 1171 scouts. 1hree troons in the C0u11cil are now wi thou.t scoutuasters, but I hope that within ~ few weeks t11er;,e tr.oops wil 1 all have scou trnasters. All of the troops ~e very active at the present time. ';he Ef:.ficiency Contest, :fo:r which r~r. tf Ohn '11 • Morgan o£fered a. loving cup •. has pro:ven a great aid in determining the ~mount of real scou.ting each troop· is doing. and while the ];fficiency Contest is far from perfect and has its bad points., I would say that tald.ng it, all in all it has been a . very beneficial idea, but it will need some r2'iical chnu,g:es to pro'\l'e successful during the coming yev.r. The boys always like something new. ~.nd, therefo\. e. it will necessarily tf>L":e s(L;e study to determine its su.ccessor.

He h:s been lllltiring in his efforts to serve the Coundl, o.nd has always been willing to --lend a helping hand to everyone. His advice has alw~··s been sound, nnd his energy unlimited. I also want ·to thank Cornnissioner .Tchn E. Roberts and Deputy Con:rmissioner. s .Allen Hu hes, 'l'l:1or::ias Hu.,'ii.es &nd \'iilla.rd Hays :for their splendid cooperat: ton. They have given unselfishly of their time and. have beco;',,e r1;reat assets ·of the Chickasaw Council, and it is only because of such ::en as t."ese that -2- the Executive has single-handed been able to handle the problems of the council. On the other hand, the work of the Execu.tive :soard of the Council has been very beneficial. These men have alw~s been willing and ready to serve when called on. and as long as such men as these are members of the EXeau.t.ive :Board, scouting is going to be a $UCcess in the city of Memph~s. However, instead of merely the :EXecu.tive Board being interested in scout• ing and being willing to give their time to it, some way should be devised to interest not only the EXeco.tive Board out the entire Chickasaw Cow1cil. Kamp Kia Kima needs sorneOAe in authority at the head 'of camp. someone who can preserve discipline at all times and properly direct the camp both from a recreational and tiriancial standpoint, someone who will be present at all times, and I feel t.hat after having operated Ka.rap Kia Kioa from Memphis for two years, that the Exec'lltive is the proper person to clirect the activities of Kia Kirna. This has been tried in most of the Cou.11cils over the country r:!lld has proven very successful. scouting in M~mphis 1:'1111" not. suf:fier from the 1;:.xecu~ive being at .K8'11p Kia Kima, i'or during the summer months there is li·ttle at l'Jemphis to demand his special attention, and the routine of the of::ice cou.ld be successfully handled by the office eta.ff. I therefore heartily recorm1end that the .i;;xecu.tive be made the Qa."llp Director with full power to operate Kamp Kia Kima. The council is now conducting a Scout Leaders•. Training School. It is highly important that tl;te men who are to be Scoutmasters: or Scout r.eaders should be trained in scouting• and while this Training School is somewhat of ~m expense to the council.,. it is very desirable and I heartil~r recommend 'that it be made a part of eueh yeart s program. and that the men who a.re ~>coutmastera and have never taken this training be required to take the course. and that those desiring to. be scoutmasters be asked to · telte this training before assuming charge of a troop. 'l1hree stores. in the city o;f Memphis; namely, the Netv :Brys, Phil .A.,,. Halle, and J. Goldsmith and sons. are hendling scout supplies, ur1iforms, imd equipment. an.ct. their cooperation with scout Headquarters has been very good. l!he New :srys, during the year 1927, put· on one of the best :;scouting exhibit ions that I .have seen in a long time, and I bdieve was of such nature as to be ·very beneficial to scouting. They further presented the Chickasaw c01..meil with 5,000 scout blotters. which were very acceptable. and have been of great use to us in advertising the scout movement in this city. The three stores f'u.rt;h.er cooperated with Headquarters during the .AJJ.niversary week by the use of display windows. and by putting ::aoy scout stickers in the .outgoing mail. The New Br,;ys used 12.500; Phil A. Halle, i.ooo; and J. Goldsmith and sons, 2,000. 1l'his has been very beneficial to the Council, and has been appreciated very till.ch.

Willard Hays, Mr. Joe Flanagan, Mr. :Ben Coffey and ?.ir. W.F. Heiskell for their splendid work in conducting the scwut Leaders Training School which closed on NoveL1ber 24th a.nd which was the direct cause of securing four new scoutraasters as well as training nine other men for scoutmastership•, Chickasaw Council started scouting among negro boys in the early part of 1928 and this movement has been a.~ unqualified success. The negroes have not only taken keen interest in the work but they have conducted themselves so well that there has been no friction whatsoever between the negro troops and the white troops. ~here has been no objection by white ScoutmBsters or Scouts as to the formation of these two negro troops and in 1929 I suggest that four or more negro troops be organized. In planning the work of the council for 1929 I recommend: l. That two or more Training schools for white leaders be conducted. 2. That at least one Training School for negro leaders bo conducted. 3. That all members of the council report to council Headquarters the names of o.en whom they con-sider to be fit cv.ndid«tcs for scoutrnastership. 4. That a lake be built v.t cor.-:p currier. 5. That a reliable means of transportation to camp currier be arranged so that troops will have easy access to the car:'.!P at all times. 6. That at least eight boys representing the council attend the Third International Jwnboree which will be held in Arrowe Park, Eirhenhead, England from July 3Q to August 14th, 1929 at which at least 1,000 1v:cricon scouts are expected to attend. 7. That throUf'Jl educati ono.l publicity and other c.eans Dn• organized effort be made to educate the public at large and especially heads of churches and other institutions, as to the values of scouting, and by so doing to assist in the formation of additional troops. 8. That Sea Scouting be given a proIJ.inent place ~n council activities and a sailboat secured for the use of the Sea scouts. scouting is a vital force in community welfare and is tremendously helpful as a supplenent to the work of the Churches. In conclusion I want to thank each and every one of you gentlemen who have so materially helped in working out the scout prograu and I earnestly request your continued help and support in making scouting available to the boys of the Council area.

I have been in personal con tact with practically every troop in our Council during the year and as a whole I would say that the troops have adequate leadership, but in some instances I have found the scoutmaster s are sadly in need of training such as could be given at a scoutleader s' training school and I am of the opinion that a scoutleader s• training school should be held as soon as possible after this meeting for the purpose of further educating the scoutmaster s. At the present time we are in no particular need of scoutmaster s, but we could use advantageou sly Assistant scoutmaster s and District commissioners, as the commission er's staff now only has about four men that can be depended on to serve when called upon. During the past year, we have adopted a new plan for the commissioner• s staff which, with the small staff we have had,.has worked out very proficientl y but has, of course, suffered from lack of man power. I feel that the commission er's staff should be composed of no less than ten men and could very well utilize fifteen, and I would recommend that an appeal be ma.de to the lwicheon clubs to send at least one man to the next scoutleader st training school with the view of having him become a D~strict Commissione r. The off ice of Deputy Commissioner has been efficiently filled this year by Allen Hughes, Jr., but he has tendered his resignation , thus leaving a very i~ortant vacancy, and I feel that careful consideratio n should be given to the man who is to occupy this position as he is not only the Deputy com:nissione r, but is an ex-officio member of every standing committee and should necessarily be a man trained in the technique of scouting and in the spirit of the organizatio n. A city-wide rally tournament was inaugurated in October of this · year and will come to a close in December at which time the winning troops of each league will meet in a big rally to which all who are interested in scouting are cordially invitedA This rally tournament has been a huge success and h~s. I believe, increased the efficiency of each individual troop at least 5C%, as it has given the boys a broader outlook on scouting and has given them an insight into the activities and training of other troops of the city. It has brought 'to the scoutmaster new ideas and ideals and has page 1. �REPORT OF ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE (Continued) certainly served a very Useful purpose. However, I am of the opinion that this tournament should not be an annual affair but semi-annual , and if possible, the Merit Badge Exposition of 1928 should be repeated in 1930, as I believe this was the most spectacular event Chickasaw council ever advocated. There have been numerous other activities of the individual troops, but these activities have been fully discussed in other reports and I see no need of going into them at this time. Chickasaw council had one :r;epresenta tive at the world Jamboree held in Birkenhead., En.gland, when it should have had several, but I believe that our failure to have more than one scout attend was possibly due to the lack of education on the part of the parents of our scouts, and this education cannot be had with the present limited budget of the Council, but if it were possible to increase the bul.get of the publicity committee, I believe that we would find ourselves amply repaid by the increased interest on the pa.rt of the families of the scouts.· In general, I wou.ld say that the troops are in the best condition that they have eve.r been but that there is still room for improvement.

'l~·~l' )J, . * *** REPO RT OF CAMP CU-RR I ER C 0 MM I T T E E I During the past year camp Currier has been used very much more than in any previou s year of its history , despite the fact that only one special day, the Saturday followin g the close of the Memphis public schools last June, was made a big day for all scouts. During the summer vacation only four days passed without scouts being at camp. Jf The total scout-da y attendan ce for the year was 1,941, more than wice as large as any previou s record, indicati ng that the normal use of this wildern ess camp attracts more scouts than can be secured even when extraord inary inducem ents are used to increase the attendan ce. The total of other visitors was 874. j ' 1 The Committee is very gratefu l to Mrs. Elizabe th B. currier for the splendid financi al help that she has given us this year. Mrs. Currier has donated $600.00 for the use of the camp and this money has been of tremendous help in carrying on the many activiti es of the camp. Without it the program would have been serious ly handicap ped and we deeply appreci ate her splendid generos ity. This year the camp has suffered no damage from fire or otherwis e; its use as an asylum for wild life is better respecte d and is becoming popular with the local community; and the only serious persona l injury during the year was an acciden tal lick inflicte d in play that resulted in a cut on the head which did not go through the scalp. The scout was given immedia te First Aid treatmen t and suffered no ill effects . In 1928 cabin-b uilding had practic ally come to a standsti ll., whereas in 1929 two cabins whose constru ction had been lagging were complete d, four new ones have been begun and finished , two others have been started, and the felling of trees for.cabi n materia l has been commenced by four troops. There are now eight complete d cabins on the camp, owned by Troops 5, 16, 19, 25, 29, 33, 34, and 41. The program of the year at Camp currier has aroused more interest than ever before as is evidence d by the larger number of scouts particip ating in camp activiti es. This should warrant a more portenti ous schedule for the coming year. That is, more activiti es should be encourag ed outside of th~ work in constru cting cabins and making other improvem ents. It is the plan of the camp directo r to increase the scope of these activiti es as fast as the boys can be lead to take up all lines of real backwoods pursuit s.

AlOOAL MEETING, DECEW3ER 12, 1929. * *** REPORT OF INTER-RACIAL ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE your comnittee is indeed pro'\.'.d of the work accomplished with negro boys this year. 1928 was the first year that the privileges of scouting were given to these boys by Chickasaw Council, two troops being organized during that year. In 1929, four troops were organized so that the council now has six troops which are doing splendid work. The Executive Board has authorized four additional troops and these are now in process of organization. '.Lhe population of Chickasaw council area is 32% negro and your committee feels it unwise to withhold scout training from so large a number of human beings whose character development it is not only our duty to encourage but to our very distinct interest as well. We are very proud of the re cord these boys have ma.de and also of the fact that there has never been the slightest conflict between negro scouts and white scouts here or elsewhere in the sou1\l!.. your committee believes training is essential for the negro man to become a scoutmaster and we recomnend that in 1930 training schools for them be given due emphasis and that we give our negro leaders all the help we can. Respectfully submitted., INTER-RACIAL ACTIVITIES COMMITI'EE page 12,. �CHICKA_Q.AW COUNCIL, ]. S. A• .ANNU.b.L MEE TING, DECEEBER 12, 1929 ** ** REPORT 0 F I.A.MP KIA KIMA COMMITTEE The attendance at Kamp Kia Kimat s 14th season was a disappointment, as only 180 boys attended. the camp as compared to 211 in 1928. This lack of attendance caused the ca1,1p to lose i>1oney, the deficiency being $432. 72. This was taken care of through funds provided by the Memphis cornmuni ty Fund. F:very effort was made to conserve our money and we spent only $541.79 for equipment in 1929 as compared to $65.7. 43 spent in 1928. The camp now has a splendid stone hospital which :was completed before the beginning of the camping season this year and which was used for the first time this season. This hospital was built accord.in~ to plans drawn by Dr. J. c • .Ayres, a member of the ca.aping QorrLnittee who has worked long and faithfully for the advancemE;n t of Kamp Kia Kima. The hospital overlooks the river front and is very advantageously located. :rt is screened thoroughly, has running water and a shower bath~ The hospitai was equipped with two hospital beds, the gift of the Gartley-Ramsay ·Hospital, an e:xainination table, the gift of the ]aptist Hospital through Mr. George D. Sheats, Superintendent, and a centrifuge, donated by Mr. Ed. Mercere of Gwinner Mercere' co. This building has long been needed at camp and we are deeply indebted to the gentlemen who have worked so faithfully to build and equip this splendid addition to our camp. The health of the camp was very good throughout the season with the exception of a few cases of malaria. The camp doctor feels certain that all malaria was brought to camp as all boys havi~g the disease had been treat~ ed for it before their arrival at camp. Four· times during the season boys oil·ed all the old stumps, sloughs, and standing water within the radius of one-half a mile of the camp, which was a very efficient method of preventing mosquitos. There were only two accidents of any importance, one boy being bitten by a snake and one staff member being injured in a fall. Kamp Kia Kima is provided with Antivenin, which is the only known specific for snake poison, and this prevented any injurious effect to the boy who was bitten by the copperhead, as the camp doctor administered this medicine immediately after the accident. A tennis court was built at carup this year and this provided one of the. most popular activities in ca.mp. It was constantly used by the boys and they derived much pleasure from it. The camp headquarters which was given to Chickasaw Council through the generosity of Mr. Edward M. Salomon last year, proved of tremendous help to the director and all the boys in camp, as it provided a place for the library, a reception room for visitors and adequate space for the director• s office, the camp bank, and the camp commissary, page 13. �REP ORT OF KAMP KIA KINJA COMMITTEE ,(Cont inued ) mende d by The counc il ·this year u~ed the new ratin g plan recom well as the as receiv ed Natio nal ~ead 0uarters. and below we give tht: ·ratin gs cts: us subje names of the judg·e s who coritp iled.. the datr. on t~e vario C.A.MP SITE •..•• .•.•.• •••.• •.••• ••••• ••• (Exce llent) E· »Dals trom ..

This magazine is of tremendous interest to boys and it has been materially improved and developed during the past year. The books received at Kamp Kia Kima this season were by far superior to a.ny library which the camp has enjoyed in the past. The cossitt Library has been of much help to us in arranging the selection of these books and we want to thank them for their splendid cooperation. under the new registration plan for scouters, all adult leaders connected in any capacity with the scout movement will pay a registration fee of $1. 00 per year and will receive the magazine 11 SCOUTING" after the council Charter is renewed in 1930. This should be of material help in assisting the leaders of the Council to keep informed of the progress and development of the movement. our council members will not receive "SCOUTING" until July 1, 1930 unless they desire to pay a registration fee of $1.00 for the year ending June 30, 1930. we recommend: l. That each council member send one dollar to the scout Executive to be used in registering himself as a scouter and so receive the magazine from now until July l, 1930. 2. That in 1930 the Reading committee exerts every effort to make 11 EOYS LIFE" available to all boys and especially scouts and that the committee makes definite plans toward this end. 3.

S C0 U T This is the first report of the sea Scout comnittee as your committee was authorized by the new constitution that went into effect January 1, 1929. we believe sea scouting is one of the best means of holding the older boy in the Scout movement, as the sea scout program is built for older boys, that is from fifteen years of age and above. Chickasaw council now has two ships of sea Scouts, the $. s. Sv Kia Kima and the s.s.s. Decatur. We believe Memphis offers splendid opportunities for sea Scouting but that it will be necessary for the council to have a boat before sea scouting will ever approach the efficiency it should have. Numerous efforts have been made to secure a boat and w~. Edward M. salomon has generously agreei to pay the freight and overhauling charges on a boat whenever the council can secure one from the Navy Department. .A. number of efforts have been made to get a suitable boat but on account of _the poor condition of all the boats available they have been rejected. are still working to secure a boat we feel it will be of mu.ch help towards the training, of our older boys and in keeping them active in scouting. we as For 1930 we recommend: 1. That a boat at least thirty feet long be secured for use of sea scouts under the direction and control of the Council through the Scout Executive. 2. That at least $500.00 be provided in the Coun·cn budget for Sea Scouting. 3. That at least two additional sea scout troops be organized and that additional ships be formed whenever facilities are available.

A• .ANNUAL MEET ING, DECEMBER 12 I 19~9. * *** REPORT OF TROOP ORGA~IZATION COMMITTE E your Committee reports that during the year ep.ding December l, 1929 there were ten troops of white boys and four troops of negro boys organized. Chickasaw Council now has fifty-one troops of white boys and six troops of negro boys, a total of fifty-seven troops. This is a gain of 23.9% 1 inasmuch as the Council had only forty-six troops last year, forty-four of which were wh~te and two colored. The .white troops organized this year are as follows: Troop 15 - Bellevue :Baptist Church Troop 3? • Springdale Methodist Church Troop 39 - First United Lutheran Church Troop 41 - Hernando, Mississippi Troop 42 - .Eastern Heigh.ts Baptist Church Troop 44 - Olive ]ranch, Mississippi Troop 48 - Southside Methodist Church Troop 53 - National Avenue Baptist Church Troop 57 - Horn Lake, Mississippi Troop 59 - Capleville Baptist Church The four negro troops organized are as follows: Troop 102 - Metropolitan Baptist Church Troop 103 - Mount Olive Q. M. E· Church Troop 104 - Mount Pisgah c. M. E· Church Troop 105 - Gospel Temple :Baptist Church Your committee is glad to report that steady progress has been made in organizing troops in the Baptist Churches of Memphis. In 1928 there were only two troops sponsored by :Baptist Churches in the council ~rea, but at the close of this year we have eight troops sponsored by Baptist Churches, four page 2~.· �REPORT OF TROOP' ORGANIZATION COMMITTEE (Continued) of wnich were organized this. year, and two troops being transferred from the sponsorship of other institution s to :Baptist Churches. we are ma.king every effort to organize troops in some of the larger Baptist Churches which have never sponsored troops and we feel confident that in another year the percentage of Baptist Churches sponsoring troops will compare favorably with the other denominatio ns. In addition to the white troops above mentioned, troops have been organized in two·negro ~aptist Churches, making a total of three negro ~roops in Baptist Churchesf your comtnittee is proud of this record and we recommend that continual effort be put on the organizatio n of troops in Baptist Churches in 1930. We are ·also glad to report that the number. of troops outside of Memphis proper has· been increased from eight in 1928 to thirteen in 1929. we recommend that the Troop organizatio n comnittee makes especial efforts in 1930 to extend the privileges of scouting to the boys in the council Area outside of Memphis. · For 1930 ·we recommend that at least ten new troops be organized for wnite·boys and that new troops be organized for colored boys whenever in the judgment of the president of the council and the Executive Board the colored institution s are capable of supporting scout troops. Respectfull y submitted, TROOP ORG,ANIZ.ATION COMMITTEE (JOtkdc.. BY page 24. mJJi:J Chairman · �CHICKASAW COUNCIL, :B. S. A. ANNUAL l1iEETING, DECEMBER 12, 1929. * * ** R E P 0 R T 0 F S CO UT E XE.CU T I V E On December 1, 1929, Chickasaw council had fifty-one troops of white boys ai1d six troops of negro boys, a total of fifty-seven troops as compared to forty-four troops of white boys and two troops of negro boys last year, a net gain of eleven troops or 23.90fa. This is the largest number of active troops our council has ever had and if present plans are carried out we should easily have seventy troops by the end of 1930, a most encouraging outlook for our future growth. In 1928 only two of our troops were sponsored by :Baptist Churches, but this year, through the efforts bf M;r. Jack Gates, six additional churches have sponsored troops and we now have eight troops in :Baptist Churches • . It has been our policy to organize new troops with the minimum number. of eight boys and let them· gradually increase rather than to attempt to start with a large number of boys. This has proven a very satisfactory policy in that it has insured troop permanency. However, it has somewhat retarded our growth in numbers. we now have 1,238 scouts as compared to 1,137 last year, a gain of .Bfb. The national average of scouts per troop is 21.2 while our average is 21.7, so even though our gain in numbers has been small we are still somewhat better than the average. In 1930 our average of scouts per troop should be materially increased, for recruiting is constantly going on and the new troops organized this year will soon be recruited up to the average number. our troops are enjoying splendid leadership and every troop has an active adult leader directing its program. Two troops are being led by adult Assistant Scoutmasters who are carrying on during the absence from the city of the scoutmasters; one troop is being led by an Assistant Scoutmaster who will shortly be commissioned as scoutmaster and one troop is being led by a member of the Troop cormnittee (who was formerly scoutmaster), until a new scoutmaster can be secured. The remaining !ifty-three troops have scoutrilasters in charge. From this it will be seen that every troop is enjoying good leadership and I want to take this opportunity to express to the scoutmasters and the Assistant scoutmasters of Chickasaw council my sincere appreciation of their splendid help and cooperation in all the activities of the Council during the past year. This year our scouts have been extremely active in community service and they have done numerous civic good turns which are well worthy of mention. Their biggest job was the distribution of fifty thousand cards giving directions for the control of mosquito breeding. ]]Very troop in MeII!Phis was needed for this work which was under the direction of Dr, L· M. Graves of the Department of Health. our boys did this job and did it well. During the meeting of the American Bar Association, scouts served as pages. Through the courtesy of professor R· L· Jones, each scout page was released from school page 25. �REPORT OF SCOUT EXECUTIVE (continued) for the day he served. During the first week of the meeting ten boys were on duty each day and for the second week thirty boys were used each day, so that more than two hundred scouts from the different troops in Memphis helped in this good turn. our boys have also done many other forms of civic service in distributing posters for the Shelby Council Anti-Tuberculosis society, helping the community Fund, directing traffic at the Dedication of the I'tfu.nicipal Airport, controlling the crowds during the Spirit of Christmas parade, as well as numerous other good turns which required .but a few boys. I feel sure every man in the council is proud of this record of service to the community. The camp program has been very successful and more boys have had the benefit of learning nature's secrets through living in the great out-ofdoors tha.~ ever before. At Kamp Kia Kima the attendance was slightly smaller than last year but the boys thoroughly enjoyad themselves. At Camp currier the attendance was niore than doubled and the boys are ming this camp in increasing numbers. Our two camps are of tremendous benefit to our boys and we should feel proud of our camp equipment. The greatest need we have in our camping program is swimming facilities at car:ip currier. A lake is badly needed but until such a time as funds are available for its construction I feel sure we should provide some sort of swimming pool for the boys. This feature will attract hundreds of boys and will give the camp a tremendous added attraction. Our indoor program ho.s also been tremendously successful, as the inter-troop rally tournrunent which has been running for about three months has been the means of helping many troops to learn their weaknesses in scouting technique and has brought them to a much higher standard of efficiency. These rallies have been splendidly handled by commissioner Mathews and the District commissioners and have been the source of tremendous interest among the boys. Early in 1930 we plan to have the finals of the tournament at the Auditoriura and this should be a big event in the new year. We are .indebted to the "Memphis EVening Appeal" for the silver loving cup which will be awarded to the winner. The council is indebted to Commissioner Ross .A.. Mathews, Mr. Willard Hays, Mr. William G. Hall, Mr. Allen Hughes, Jr., Mr. :sen :s. Coffey, Mr. Joe Flanagan, and ~~. Harry Myers for the splendid work they did in the training school for scoutleaders, as the school wns of mu.ch help to the men who took the training. The council is also indebted. to far. :Ben Coffey for his splendid w9:r;k in leading a specialization course in First Aid. · ScaQting among negro boys is progressing slowly but surely. In 1929 four troops of negro boys were organized so that we now have six troops in the council. The Executive Board has authorized the addition of four more troops ond these are now being organized. I am glad to say there has been no objection to the use of the scout program by the negro boys by any of our white Scoutleaders or scouts and there has not been the slightest friction between white and negro scouts. At the Inter-National Jamboree which was held in :Birkenhead, England, our council was represented by scout William Robert Neill, Jr. we page 26. �REPORT OF SCOUT EXECUTIVE (Continued) planned to have patrol to attend this Jamboree but owing to our financial situation only one boy was able to go and he had to pay his own expenses. Through the splendid work of our officers and the Executive Board as well as the wembers of the various comr::d.tt~es, our council has made considerable progress during the past year~ a.."'1.d. I want to take this opportunity to express to these gentlemen my deep and sincere appreciatio n for the splendid cooperation and help that they have given me in everything that has been done. Many demands have been· ma.de for time that some of our r!lembers could ill afford to give, l.llld I want to thank you all for the thought you have given, sacrifices you have made, and the real work that has been done that the council r.Jight give to our boys every opportunity to becorrie better citizens through the L1anifold ad.vantages Of Scouting. In planning the work of the COJ.ncil for 1930 I recomnend: vi. That special emphasis be placed on the training of leaders and that two training schools for wh.ite leaders and one for negro leaders be conducted., That a lake be built at camp Currier. I feel confident that attendance will more than double when swinoing facilities are available at the camp and I believe a lake will stimulate not only the boys but will create i~creased interest in scouting araong the parents and the supporting constituenc y of the council. That oore boys be recruited in our various troops and that fifteen new troops be organized. 4. That a budget of $20,000.00 for council operation be made available. Our council has been handicapped for a number of years through lack of f1111ds and in discussir;.g our budget with national officers I find they are unanir.iously agreed that $20,000.00 is the mininum budget required for real progress in a council the size of ours. That we have a i:1eri t badge exposition si::1ilar to the one held in cor~di tion will pernit. 1928 provided our financial That we r.'.laintain high sta;.1dards in all events involved in scouting technique and especially in the award of merit badges. This r:-iay result in a fewer nusber of i:,eri t badges being taken but will improve and build up the quality of scouting among our boys. 7. That Sea Sco-~ting be given a higher place in the Council's activities a;.id that a boat be provided for the use of our sea scout Ships. 8. That we give the advantages of the scout program to negro boys whenever and wherever troops can be organized under proper leadership and supervision . page 27. �REPORT OF SCOUT EXECUTIVE (Continued) 9. 10.

With rare presence of mind, J~aes awakened his sister, improvised a _rope of sheets from the bed, and with great difficulty lowered her from the second story to the ground in safety, even though his clothes were in flames. After the girl was on the ground Ja,i:les jumped, but in effecting the rescue he had been so severely burned that he died in the Baptist Hospital a few hours later. This boy lived scouting and his training was of much help to him throughout the tragedy according to his own statement to a newspaper reporter after he reached the hospital. we feel that all honor is due James Hopper for his splendid act and we are now trying to secure a posthumous award of the Honor Medal for life saving. we feel this glorious deed in which a scout thought of others before hir.iself is one of the finest acts of heroism in the history of Chickasaw council.

A. ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER ;12, 1929. * * * * '• ~ : REPORT OF ACTIVITIES C 0 M M I T T E E Again I feel that my report for the year of 1929 should deal with the activities and the spirit of -the 'adult- leaders of the Chickasaw council, for without this unselfish service scouting would of a necessity fail, as the success of the whole program is founded on the efficient leadership of our scout leaders. I have been in personal con tact with practically every troop in our Council during the year and as a whole I would say that the troops have adequate leadership, but in some instances I have found the scoutmasters are sadly in need of training such as could be given at a scoutleaders' training school and I am of the opinion that a scoutleaders• training school should be held as soon as possible after this meeting for the purpose of further educating the scoutmasters. At the present time we are in no particular need of scoutmasters, but we could use advantageously Assistant scoutmasters and District commissioners, as the commissioner's staff now only has about four men that can be depended on to serve when called upon. During the past year, we have adopted a new plan for the commissioner• s staff which, with the small staff we have had,.has worked out very proficiently but has, of course, suffered from lack of man power. I feel that the commissioner's staff should be composed of no less than ten men and could very well utilize fifteen, and I would recommend that an appeal be ma.de to the lwicheon clubs to send at least one man to the next scoutleaderst training school with the view of having him become a D~strict Commissioner. The off ice of Deputy Commissioner has been efficiently filled this year by Allen Hughes, Jr., but he has tendered his resignation, thus leaving a very i~ortant vacancy, and I feel that careful consideration should be given to the man who is to occupy this position as he is not only the Deputy com:nissioner, but is an ex-officio member of every standing committee and should necessarily be a man trained in the technique of scouting and in the spirit of the organization. A city-wide rally tournament was inaugurated in October of this · year and will come to a close in December at which time the winning troops of each league will meet in a big rally to which all who are interested in scouting are cordially invitedA This rally tournament has been a huge success and h~s. I believe, increased the efficiency of each individual troop at least 5C%, as it has given the boys a broader outlook on scouting and has given them an insight into the activities and training of other troops of the city. It has brought 'to the scoutmaster new ideas and ideals and has page 1. REPORT OF ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE (Continued) certainly served a very Useful purpose. However, I am of the opinion that this tournament should not be an annual affair but semi-annual, and if possible, the Merit Badge Exposition of 1928 should be repeated in 1930, as I believe this was the most spectacular event Chickasaw council ever advocated. There have been numerous other activities of the individual troops, but these activities have been fully discussed in other reports and I see no need of going into them at this time. Chickasaw council had one :r;epresentative at the world Jamboree held in Birkenhead., En.gland, when it should have had several, but I believe that our failure to have more than one scout attend was possibly due to the lack of education on the part of the parents of our scouts, and this education cannot be had with the present limited budget of the Council, but if it were possible to increase the bul.get of the publicity committee, I believe that we would find ourselves amply repaid by the increased interest on the pa.rt of the families of the scouts.· In general, I wou.ld say that the troops are in the best condition that they have eve.r been but that there is still room for improvement.

OF CAMP CU-RR I ER C 0 M M I T T E E I During the past year camp Currier has been used very much more than in any previous year of its history, despite the fact that only one special day, the Saturday following the close of the Memphis public schools last June, was made a big day for all scouts. During the summer vacation only four days passed without scouts being at camp. Jf The total scout-day attendance for the year was 1,941, more than wice as large as any previous record, indicating that the normal use of this wilderness camp attracts more scouts than can be secured even when extraordinary inducements are used to increase the attendance. The total of other visitors was 874. The Committee is very grateful to Mrs. Elizabeth B. currier for 1 the splendid financial help that she has given us this year. Mrs. Currier j has donated $600.00 for the use of the camp and this money has been of tre' mendous help in carrying on the many activities of the camp. Without it the program would have been seriously handicapped and we deeply appreciate her splendid generosity. This year the camp has suffered no damage from fire or otherwise; its use as an asylum for wild life is better respected and is becoming popular with the local community; and the only serious personal injury during the year was an accidental lick inflicted in play that resulted in a cut on the head which did not go through the scalp. The scout was given immediate First Aid treatment and suffered no ill effects. In 1928 cabin-building had practically come to a standstill., whereas in 1929 two cabins whose construction had been lagging were completed, four new ones have been begun and finished, two others have been started, and the felling of trees for.cabin material has been commenced by four troops. There are now eight completed cabins on the camp, owned by Troops 5, 16, 19, 25, 29, 33, 34, and 41. The program of the year at Camp currier has aroused more interest than ever before as is evidenced by the larger number of scouts participating in camp activities. This should warrant a more portentious schedule for the coming year. That is, more activities should be encouraged outside of th~ work in constructing cabins and making other improvements. It is the plan of the camp director to increase the scope of these activities as fast as the boys can be lead to take up all lines of real backwoods pursuits. As reco~~~-~-~c;l in. th&·G&mf»-G.ommittee__~p.~t of 1928, a truck has been purehas-ed-wnfoh is capable of carrying conifortably--t'w-en-ty.,.five boys to camp.

REPORT OF CAMP CURRIER COMMIT1IEE (Continued) item which has been of material help is the fact that there is a hard-surface road all the way up to and around the oval at camp headquarters. This has enabled many people to go to camp who otherwise would not have attempted it. Recommendations for 1930 are as follows: ~of a lake or at least. .-a---swfiiiilli~g ~~()1;-., ~.:., _______ .--·· ... ·' .,/_,,-· 2. The digging of two wells, in the remote sections of the camp so that troops will be supplied with drinking water without having to come to headquarters for it. 3. A shower bath should be installed with all boys given the privilege of its use. 4. A substantial fence should be built entirely around the camp in order to prevent the property from being overrun with the stock of neighboring people. (' 5. All troops not having cabins should be encour~ged to build a cabin during 1930 so that each troop can have its own head.quarters in camp. Respectfully submitted, CAMP CURRIER COMMITTEE page 4.

REPORT OF CIVIC RELATIONS COMMITTEE (Continued) we want particularly to call attention to the splendid work the boys did in the distribution of fifty thousand cards for the City Health Department. This required every troop in the city to particip~te and was one of the biggest civic good turns in the history of the Council. Also the boys received rm.ch praise for the work done as PB.i%es during the meeting of the Bar association. · For 1930 we recommend that scouts do every civic good turn they can and that these bo;ws be taught in word and deed that 11 scouting is a spirit which entering into a boy creates a desire for self-irr;>rovement, elevating his thoughts, purifying his purposes and ennobling him with the in$piration of service above self. n Respectfully su:bmitted, CIVIC RELATIONS COMMITTEE page 6.

AlOOAL MEETING, DECEW3ER 12, 1929. * * * * REPORT OF INTER-RACIAL ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE your comnittee is indeed pro'\.'.d of the work accomplished with negro boys this year. 1928 was the first year that the privileges of scouting were given to these boys by Chickasaw Council, two troops being organized during that year. In 1929, four troops were organized so that the council now has six troops which are doing splendid work. The Executive Board has authorized four additional troops and these are now in process of organization. '.Lhe population of Chickasaw council area is 32% negro and your committee feels it unwise to withhold scout training from so large a number of human beings whose character development it is not only our duty to encourage but to our very distinct interest as well. We are very proud of the re cord these boys have ma.de and also of the fact that there has never been the slightest conflict between negro scouts and white scouts here or elsewhere in the sou1\l!.. your committee believes training is essential for the negro man to become a scoutmaster and we recomnend that in 1930 training schools for them be given due emphasis and that we give our negro leaders all the help we can.

This lack of attendance caused the ca1,1p to lose i>1oney, the deficiency being $432. 72. This was taken care of through funds provided by the Memphis cornmuni ty Fund. F:very effort was made to conserve our money and we spent only $541.79 for equipment in 1929 as compared to $65.7. 43 spent in 1928. The camp now has a splendid stone hospital which :was completed before the beginning of the camping season this year and which was used for the first time this season. This hospital was built accord.in~ to plans drawn by Dr. J. c • .Ayres, a member of the ca.aping QorrLnittee who has worked long and faithfully for the advancemE;n t of Kamp Kia Kima. The hospital overlooks the river front and is very advantageously located. :rt is screened thoroughly, has running water and a shower bath~ The hospitai was equipped with two hospital beds, the gift of the Gartley-Ramsay ·Hospital, an e:xainination table, the gift of the ]aptist Hospital through Mr. George D. Sheats, Superintendent, and a centrifuge, donated by Mr. Ed. Mercere of Gwinner Mercere' co. This building has long been needed at camp and we are deeply indebted to the gentlemen who have worked so faithfully to build and equip this splendid addition to our camp. The health of the camp was very good throughout the season with the exception of a few cases of malaria. The camp doctor feels certain that all malaria was brought to camp as all boys havi~g the disease had been treat~ ed for it before their arrival at camp. Four· times during the season boys oil·ed all the old stumps, sloughs, and standing water within the radius of one-half a mile of the camp, which was a very efficient method of preventing mosquitos. There were only two accidents of any importance, one boy being bitten by a snake and one staff member being injured in a fall. Kamp Kia Kima is provided with Antivenin, which is the only known specific for snake poison, and this prevented any injurious effect to the boy who was bitten by the copperhead, as the camp doctor administered this medicine immediately after the accident. A tennis court was built at carup this year and this provided one of the. most popular activities in ca.mp. It was constantly used by the boys and they derived much pleasure from it. The camp headquarters which was given to Chickasaw Council through the generosity of Mr. Edward M. Salomon last year, proved of tremendous help to the director and all the boys in camp, as it provided a place for the library, a reception room for visitors and adequate space for the director• s office, the camp bank, and the camp commissary, page 13.

The Memphis Evening Appeal has also splendidly cooperated by giving us news stories and also in donating a cup for the Inter-Troop Rally contest. This cup has been of much interest to the scouts, has stimulated activities very materially, and we want to thank the Evening Appeal for their generosity and help. The commercial Appeal has cooperated with Headquarters to some extent in that they have given us some news stories and also put pictures of carrv activities at Kamp Kia Kima in the Rotogravure Section of the Sunday paper. Headquarters has published weekly a publication known as THE CO'IB~CIL FIRfu, and this is of much help to all of the troops inasmuch as it enables the Executive to express to the scoutmasters the activities planned for the council. 'lhis publication at prE•sEmt is sent only to scoutmasters, Assistant scoutmasters, Chairmen of Troop committees and Chairmen of standing comrnittees. . scouts have aided the comm.mi ty FUnd by putting on scouting demonstrations and first aid as publicity stunts during the spring campaign, This attracted quite a good deal of favorable comment from the people who witnessed these events. For the year 1930, we recommend: 1. That special efforts be made to secure additional space in newspapers and that editorials, news i terns and other publicity features be used whenever possible, 2, That the circulation of 11THE COUNCIL FIRE" be enlarged to take in the pastors of all the churches and other institutions sponsoring scout troops as well as all council members, Merit Badge counselors and other adult leaders assisting in the work of the council. 3. That more money be made available in the 1S2io budget for publicity. page 17. I 1 BEFORT OF PUELI CI TY COMMITT:E]L.(_Con tinued) 4.

A • .ANNUAL MEETING, DECEL:BER 12, 1929. * * * * REPORT OF READING COMMITTEJll your committee reports there has been a considerable increase in the interest manifested by the scouts in 11 EOYS LIFE", the official magazine of the Eoy scouts of A~erica and that a number of troops have taken advantage of the offer of this magazine at one dollar per year when 5C% of the tro0p subscribes at the time of the troop registration. This magazine is of tremendous interest to boys and it has been materially improved and developed during the past year. The books received at Kamp Kia Kima this season were by far superior to a.ny library which the camp has enjoyed in the past. The cossitt Library has been of much help to us in arranging the selection of these books and we want to thank them for their splendid cooperation. under the new registration plan for scouters, all adult leaders connected in any capacity with the scout movement will pay a registration fee of $1. 00 per year and will receive the magazine 11 SCOUTING" after the council Charter is renewed in 1930. This should be of material help in assisting the leaders of the Council to keep informed of the progress and development of the movement. our council members will not receive "SCOUTING" until July 1, 1930 unless they desire to pay a registration fee of $1.00 for the year ending June 30, 1930. we recommend: l. That each council member send one dollar to the scout Executive to be used in registering himself as a scouter and so receive the magazine from now until July l, 1930. 2. That in 1930 the Reading committee exerts every effort to make 11 EOYS LIFE" available to all boys and especially scouts and that the committee makes definite plans toward this end. 3. That any member of the council having a surplus of good books donate them for the library at camp currier which is gradually growing though at present extremely small. Respectfully submitted, READING COMMITTEE REPORT CHICK.AS.AW COUNCIL; ] • S. .A. • .ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 12, 1929. * * * * OF SE.A. S C 0 U T C 0 MM I T TE E. This is the first report of the sea Scout comnittee as your committee was authorized by the new constitution that went into effect January 1, 1929. we believe sea scouting is one of the best means of holding the older boy in the Scout movement, as the sea scout program is built for older boys, that is from fifteen years of age and above. Chickasaw council now has two ships of sea Scouts, the $. s. Sv Kia Kima and the s.s.s. Decatur. We believe Memphis offers splendid opportunities for sea Scouting but that it will be necessary for the council to have a boat before sea scouting will ever approach the efficiency it should have. Numerous efforts have been made to secure a boat and w~. Edward M. salomon has generously agreei to pay the freight and overhauling charges on a boat whenever the council can secure one from the Navy Department. .A. number of efforts have been made to get a suitable boat but on account of _the poor condition of all the boats available they have been rejected. we are still working to secure a boat as we feel it will be of mu.ch help towards the training, of our older boys and in keeping them active in scouting. For 1930 we recommend: 1. That a boat at least thirty feet long be secured for use of sea scouts under the direction and control of the Council through the Scout Executive. 2. That at least $500.00 be provided in the Coun·cn budget for Sea Scouting. 3. That at least two additional sea scout troops be organized and that additional ships be formed whenever facilities are available.

A • .ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 12, 1929. * * * * REPQRT O F TR.AINI NG COMMITTEE The Training comrni ttee reports that during the year 1929 there has been a great emphasis put on training of our scoutleaders, as we feel that training is extremely important if the boys are to receive the full benefits of Sc.outing from the leaders. The Minimum course of the Five Year Training Program was given to twenty-one men and seventeen of these men completed the course and received t:1eir certificates. This was a very splendid course and was of material help to tho men who attended. commissioner Ross A. Mathews acted as Scoutmaster for the Training School, assisted by Willard E· Hays, Assistant scoutmaster, District commissioner William. G. Hall as scribe, Deputy Commissioner Allen Hughes, Jr., senior Patrol Leader, and Ben ]arry Coffey, Jr., scoutmaster of Troop 1, Joe FlaI1agan, scoutmaster of Troop 3, and Arnold Houston, scoutmaster of Troop 50, as Patrol Leaders. rr.ti.ese men did splendid work in their respective places and the Coui1cil is indebted to them for their help. We are also indebted to the y. M. c. A. for their courtesy in allowing us their fti.cilities as well as a room for a meeting place for the school. The Y. M. c • .A. has always been of much help to us in conducting our training schools. Under the leadership of scoutmaster ]en Coffey of Troop 1, a First Aid course was conducted with twelve scou tleaders and seven scouts enrolled. Nine of the scou tleaders received certificates and three scouts were t.Wardod cards by the American Red cross. This course is a Specialization Course and also applies on the Five Year Training Program for scoutleaders. Mr. Coffey is due special recognition from the council for his work in these and other training courses, as he has done especially well and has been of tremendous help in the entire training program. Scoutmaster Ben Coffey is now conducting a Specialization course in ]ird study and also in Astronomy. These courses will be of much help to our scoutleaders, as these courses will also apply on the Five Year Training program. The corrraittee has also conducted a training course for negro Scoutleaders which was directed by J. A. Beauchamp, Assistant to Mr. Stanley A. Harris, National Director of Inter-Racial Activities. Thirty-four men attended this course at various times and seventeen men received eight hours or more of training. This was of much help to the negro leaders, as they are extremely interested and desired all the help they could receive. J. A. Beauchamp is very efficie~t in his work with negro leaders and in conducting the training school. page 21. REPORT OF TRAINING COMMITTEE (Continued) For 1930 we recomr~end that training schools be conducted for scoutleaders and that Specialization Courses be given, as· we feel that this will continue the good work which has been done during the past year. Trained leadership mea.~s efficient scoutmasters and we therefore urge that emphasis be placed on the training program for the 1930 activities. Respectfully submitted, TB.A.IN ING COMMITTEE BY page 22. CHICKASAW COUHCIL, B. S. A • .ANNUAL MEET ING, DECEMBER 12 I 19~9. * * * * REPORT OF TROOP ORGA~IZATION COMMITTEE your Committee reports that during the year ep.ding December l, 1929 there were ten troops of white boys and four troops of negro boys organized. Chickasaw Council now has fifty-one troops of white boys and six troops of negro boys, a total of fifty-seven troops. This is a gain of 23.9% 1 inasmuch as the Council had only forty-six troops last year, forty-four of which were wh~te and two colored. The .white troops organized this year are as follows: Troop 15 - Bellevue :Baptist Church Troop 3? • Springdale Methodist Church Troop 39 - First United Lutheran Church Troop 41 - Hernando, Mississippi Troop 42 - .Eastern Heigh.ts Baptist Church Troop 44 - Olive ]ranch, Mississippi Troop 48 - Southside Methodist Church Troop 53 - National Avenue Baptist Church Troop 57 - Horn Lake, Mississippi Troop 59 - Capleville Baptist Church The four negro troops organized are as follows: Troop 102 - Metropolitan Baptist Church Troop 103 - Mount Olive Q. M. E· Church Troop 104 - Mount Pisgah c. M. E· Church Troop 105 - Gospel Temple :Baptist Church Your committee is glad to report that steady progress has been made in organizing troops in the Baptist Churches of Memphis. In 1928 there were only two troops sponsored by :Baptist Churches in the council ~rea, but at the close of this year we have eight troops sponsored by Baptist Churches, four page 2~.· REPORT OF TROOP' ORGANIZATION COMMITTEE (Continued) of wnich were organized this. year, and two troops being transferred from the sponsorship of other institutions to :Baptist Churches. we are ma.king every effort to organize troops in some of the larger Baptist Churches which have never sponsored troops and we feel confident that in another year the percentage of Baptist Churches sponsoring troops will compare favorably with the other denominations. In addition to the white troops above mentioned, troops have been organized in two·negro ~aptist Churches, making a total of three negro ~roops in Baptist Churchesf your comtnittee is proud of this record and we recommend that continual effort be put on the organization of troops in Baptist Churches in 1930. We are ·also glad to report that the number. of troops outside of Memphis proper has· been increased from eight in 1928 to thirteen in 1929. we recommend that the Troop organization comnittee makes especial efforts in 1930 to extend the privileges of scouting to the boys in the council Area outside of Memphis. · For 1930 ·we recommend that at least ten new troops be organized for wnite·boys and that new troops be organized for colored boys whenever in the judgment of the president of the council and the Executive Board the colored institutions are capable of supporting scout troops. Respectfully submitted, TROOP ORG,ANIZ.ATION COMMITTEE BY Otkdc. mJJi:J (J . Chairman · page 24. CHICKASAW COUNCIL, :B. S. A. ANNUAL l1iEETING, DECEMBER 12, 1929. * * * * R E P 0 R T 0 F S CO UT E XE.CU T I V E On December 1, 1929, Chickasaw council had fifty-one troops of white boys ai1d six troops of negro boys, a total of fifty-seven troops as compared to forty-four troops of white boys and two troops of negro boys last year, a net gain of eleven troops or 23.90fa. This is the largest number of active troops our council has ever had and if present plans are carried out we should easily have seventy troops by the end of 1930, a most encouraging outlook for our future growth. In 1928 only two of our troops were sponsored by :Baptist Churches, but this year, through the efforts bf M;r. Jack Gates, six additional churches have sponsored troops and we now have eight troops in :Baptist Churches • . It has been our policy to organize new troops with the minimum number. of eight boys and let them· gradually increase rather than to attempt to start with a large number of boys. This has proven a very satisfactory policy in that it has insured troop permanency. However, it has somewhat retarded our growth in numbers. we now have 1,238 scouts as compared to 1,137 last year, a gain of .Bfb. The national average of scouts per troop is 21.2 while our average is 21.7, so even though our gain in numbers has been small we are still somewhat better than the average. In 1930 our average of scouts per troop should be materially increased, for recruiting is constantly going on and the new troops organized this year will soon be recruited up to the average number. our troops are enjoying splendid leadership and every troop has an active adult leader directing its program. Two troops are being led by adult Assistant Scoutmasters who are carrying on during the absence from the city of the scoutmasters; one troop is being led by an Assistant Scoutmaster who will shortly be commissioned as scoutmaster and one troop is being led by a member of the Troop cormnittee (who was formerly scoutmaster), until a new scoutmaster can be secured. The remaining !ifty-three troops have scoutrilasters in charge. From this it will be seen that every troop is enjoying good leadership and I want to take this opportunity to express to the scoutmasters and the Assistant scoutmasters of Chickasaw council my sincere appreciation of their splendid help and cooperation in all the activities of the Council during the past year. This year our scouts have been extremely active in community service and they have done numerous civic good turns which are well worthy of mention. Their biggest job was the distribution of fifty thousand cards giving directions for the control of mosquito breeding. ]]Very troop in MeII!Phis was needed for this work which was under the direction of Dr, L· M. Graves of the Department of Health. our boys did this job and did it well. During the meeting of the American Bar Association, scouts served as pages. Through the courtesy of professor R· L· Jones, each scout page was released from school page 25. REPORT OF SCOUT EXECUTIVE (continued) for the day he served. During the first week of the meeting ten boys were on duty each day and for the second week thirty boys were used each day, so that more than two hundred scouts from the different troops in Memphis helped in this good turn. our boys have also done many other forms of civic service in distributing posters for the Shelby Council Anti-Tuberculosis society, helping the community Fund, directing traffic at the Dedication of the I'tfu.nicipal Airport, controlling the crowds during the Spirit of Christmas parade, as well as numerous other good turns which required .but a few boys. I feel sure every man in the council is proud of this record of service to the community. The camp program has been very successful and more boys have had the benefit of learning nature's secrets through living in the great out-ofdoors tha.~ ever before. At Kamp Kia Kima the attendance was slightly smaller than last year but the boys thoroughly enjoyad themselves. At Camp currier the attendance was niore than doubled and the boys are ming this camp in increasing numbers. Our two camps are of tremendous benefit to our boys and we should feel proud of our camp equipment. The greatest need we have in our camping program is swimming facilities at car:ip currier. A lake is badly needed but until such a time as funds are available for its construction I feel sure we should provide some sort of swimming pool for the boys. This feature will attract hundreds of boys and will give the camp a tremendous added attraction. Our indoor program ho.s also been tremendously successful, as the inter-troop rally tournrunent which has been running for about three months has been the means of helping many troops to learn their weaknesses in scouting technique and has brought them to a much higher standard of efficiency. These rallies have been splendidly handled by commissioner Mathews and the District commissioners and have been the source of tremendous interest among the boys. Early in 1930 we plan to have the finals of the tournament at the Auditoriura and this should be a big event in the new year. We are .indebted to the "Memphis EVening Appeal" for the silver loving cup which will be awarded to the winner. The council is indebted to Commissioner Ross .A.. Mathews, Mr. Willard Hays, Mr. William G. Hall, Mr. Allen Hughes, Jr., Mr. :sen :s. Coffey, Mr. Joe Flanagan, and ~~. Harry Myers for the splendid work they did in the training school for scoutleaders, as the school wns of mu.ch help to the men who took the training. The council is also indebted. to far. :Ben Coffey for his splendid w9:r;k in leading a specialization course in First Aid. · ScaQting among negro boys is progressing slowly but surely. In 1929 four troops of negro boys were organized so that we now have six troops in the council. The Executive Board has authorized the addition of four more troops ond these are now being organized. I am glad to say there has been no objection to the use of the scout program by the negro boys by any of our white Scoutleaders or scouts and there has not been the slightest friction between white and negro scouts. At the Inter-National Jamboree which was held in :Birkenhead, England, our council was represented by scout William Robert Neill, Jr. we page 26. REPORT OF SCOUT EXECUTIVE (Continued) planned to have patrol to attend this Jamboree but owing to our financial situation only one boy was able to go and he had to pay his own expenses. Through the splendid work of our officers and the Executive Board as well as the wembers of the various comr::d.tt~es, our council has made considerable progress during the past year~ a.."'1.d. I want to take this opportunity to express to these gentlemen my deep and sincere appreciation for the splendid cooperation and help that they have given me in everything that has been done. Many demands have been· ma.de for time that some of our r!lembers could ill afford to give, l.llld I want to thank you all for the thought you have given, sacrifices you have made, and the real work that has been done that the council r.Jight give to our boys every opportunity to becorrie better citizens through the L1anifold ad.vantages Of Scouting. vi. 4. 7. In planning the work of the COJ.ncil for 1930 I recomnend: That special emphasis be placed on the training of leaders and that two training schools for wh.ite leaders and one for negro leaders be conducted., That a lake be built at camp Currier. I feel confident that attendance will more than double when swinoing facilities are available at the camp and I believe a lake will stimulate not only the boys but will create i~creased interest in scouting araong the parents and the supporting constituency of the council. That oore boys be recruited in our various troops and that fifteen new troops be organized. That a budget of $20,000.00 for council operation be made available. Our council has been handicapped for a number of years through lack of f1111ds and in discussir;.g our budget with national officers I find they are unanir.iously agreed that $20,000.00 is the mininum budget required for real progress in a council the size of ours. That we have a i:1eri t badge exposition si::1ilar to the one held in 1928 provided our financial cor~di tion will pernit. That we r.'.laintain high sta;.1dards in all events involved in scouting technique and especially in the award of merit badges. This r:-iay result in a fewer nusber of i:,eri t badges being taken but will improve and build up the quality of scouting among our boys. That Sea Sco-~ting be given a higher place in the Council's activities a;.id that a boat be provided for the use of our sea scout Ships. 8. That we give the advantages of the scout program to negro boys whenever and wherever troops can be organized under proper leadership and supervision. page 27. REPORT OF SCOUT EXECUTIVE (Continued) 9. Thnt every effort be oode through educational publicity and other ~.<eons to educe: te the public at large and especially the heads of churches and other institutions which i:U.ght sponsor scout troops, as to the values of scout training. 10. That all r:i.e•;:ibers of the council rJDke a sustained effort to secure r.1011 whor.1 they consider fit candidates for positions of leadership in troops and on the council. scouting is a vital force in our corx.mni ty and is trew.endously helpful as a supple1:1e11t to the work of the churches. With the support of our Council l1ieubers and other scoutleaders, there is no doubt but what we will go forw-':1I'd in 1930, and I earnestly ask your continued cooperation in 'Jaking scou tL1g available to the boys of the council .Area. page 28.

While travelling through your city, rrw car was struck by another. The windshield broke, cutting me badly. A young man descended from a street car and rendered first aid. Had it not been for him I am sure I would have lost considerable blood. He bound my cuts as well as an experienced doctor. He sa:ys he learned first aid in the Scouts. I offered him. sev.eral d.ollars which he politely refused. The young man was a big, husky young chap and is a fine example of Scout training. Let me take this opportunity of heartily endorsing the Boy Scout movement. It is raising the boys of .America in the ideals of public service. It is a wonderful organization. Very truly yours, L. c. Morrels, Ohio. Cleve~~ **** *** ** ************************ * **** Life Scout Eill Dellarrw of Troop l rendered the service mentioned in the above letter. He gave first aid as his Daily Good Turn and did not report the., accident to his Scoutmaster or to Scout Headquarters.

A. ANlIDAL MEETING, D3JCEMBER 5, 1930 **** REPORT OF .ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE The Activities Committee is proud of the work which has been accomplished during the past year. We feel that the Council is indeed. fortunate in having such a splendid group of men who are actively serving with the troops. Every troop has a Scoutmaster and a large majority of them have one or more Assistant Scoutmasters. This has resulted in the boys participating very actively in all Cou;.1cil activities. The Inter-Troop Rally Tournament which ran for ~b,ut three months in 1929 and 30 has proved a tremendous success. In this to ment the troops are divided up into leagues, each league having an In ian name. The rallies are run on schedule and each rally contains a number of Scouting events such as Inspection, O'Gracy Drill, First Aid, Fire by Flint and Steel, Semaphore Signalling, Knot Tying, and Morse Signalling. Participation of troops in these rallies has resulted in an increased stimulation in the technique of Scouting and we feel that much good has resulted from these rallies. Another Inter-Troop Ra.lly Tournament will start on December 12th and will run well into the new year. The Activities Committee has had a great deal of help from a splendid group of men who are serving as District Commissioners and as referees for rallies. All the leagues in the Inter-Troop Rally Tournament with one exception are supervised by District Corrmissioners. We now have a Commissioner, a Deputy Commissioner, and eight District Commissioners actively working with the troops, whereas, last year had only one or two men who could be counted on to serve in the capacity of a District Comrnissioner"i. wo We feel that the general condition of the troops of Chickasaw Council is good. There aro some troops who are weak in Scouting technique and they consequently need nm.ch help from Headquarters and from the District Commissioners. Je therefore recommend that every effort be made. to continue to secui·e efficient men to serve as District Com.~issioners and that the Council follow up the plan of Intor-Troop Rallies from year to year. Respectfully submitted, ACTIVITIES COMMITT.EE Page 1. �CHICY:...1\.SAW COlniTCIL, :S. So Ao ANNUAL MEETJN'J:.1..J)ECEMBE.R 5. 1930 **** R E_.P 0 R T 0 F Your Conuni ttee Fur the past year the camp :ln1.1.omuch as there has been e;i·outer interest than ever CAMP CURRIE R C 0 MM I T T E E is proud of the splendid record of Camp Currier. has undoubtedly had the ber.t year in its history more bttllding of cabins, larger attendance, and before. As of December 1st, there are 15 complete cabins on the camp as compared to 8 cabins which were complete on December l~ 1929. These completed cabins are owned by Troops 5, 8, 15, 16, 19, 25, 27, 29, 33, 34, 40, 41 1 49, 50, and the Kelley Cabin which is owned by the Council.. Last year thore were only 5 cabins in course of constructio n, whereas, on this date we have 9 cabins on which the troops are buildingo 6 of these caoins were Gtarted this year. Troops 6, 7, 9, 11, 13, 32, 38, 43, and 66 are working on cabins at the present time. All of these cabins, with the exception of Troops 9, 11, and 13 were started in 1930. We are very ple?-sed at the unuaual amount of building which has taken place in camp, especially in view of the depressed financial conditions which have existed for the last six 01· eight months. The equipment of the camp on December 1, 1930, therefo're, is the Headquarter s Cabin with pUinp house and garage, the old Burrows Cabin with stable and cistern, the Lone Stable and cistern, and the new Kelley Cabin and cistern, all of these being owned by the Council, together with 14 troop cabins complete and in use, and the 9 troop cabins in course of constructio n. Plans for the cabins of Troops 21 and 56 have been approved and these troops will undoUbtedly start work in t.he near futureo gre~test single improvement to the camp during the year was The the constructio n o;J~a swimming pool 60 feet wide and 120 feet long and 6! feet deep. It was dug in a valley near the central part of the ca1"1p and has the appearance of a natural pool rather than an artificial swimming pool. There is a continuous flow of spring water wi1ich results in its being kept unusually pure. Particular attention has been given to the prevention of accidents and there has not been a single accident during this year. 175 Black Bass Fingerlings were put in the stream which feeds the pool and good fishing should result within the next few years~ The attendance at camp has been the largest in its history due, we believe, principally to the swimming facilities provided by the pool. In 1930 there was a total.of 3,564 Scout days as compared to 1,941 last year, an increase of 83.6% in the nuinber of Scout dayso In 1930 1,327 people visited the c~p as compared with 874 ih 1929 or an increase of 51.8%0 One of the most important steps toward the welfare of the future of the camp was the starting of the Camp Currier lake Fund, which plan was originated by Mrs. Elizabeth B. Currier of Geneva, Switzerland . Mrs. Currier donated $300.00 toward this fund and it is the plan to keep it in the savings bank and add to it whenever donations are received. This fund has for its �REPORT OF CAMP CURRIER COMMITTEE (Continued) purpose the building of a dam across one of the valleys in the northwestern part of the camp. When this dam is constructed there will be a body of water formed of approximately 25 acreso We believe that this fund will continue to grow and we wish to express our deep appreciation to Mrs. Currier for the idea and also for her gonerosi ty in starting it. We are also indebted to Mrs •. Currier for many donations which she .has given to the camp from time to time, as her generosity has resulted in tremendous improvements of the car.1p. The problem of transportation has been solved to a large extent by making the program and attractions of the camp so alluring that the boys find wa;ys of their own to travel back and forth. Eternal vigilance and the presence of so many Scouts and visitors has reduced poaching so that it is no longer a serious menace and the people in the comraunity around the ca.~p have recognized the importance of this caDp preserve and have given it their ooral support and protection. Lack of wells to supply drinking water is one of the most desperate needs of the canp. Troops which are cnr.1ping at the northern end of ca.inp have approximately a mile to travel in order to get drinking watero Therefore, we recornr:i.end that at least two wells be constructed during 1931 so that troops may be supplied with drinking water without having to go to Headquarters for it. We also recoL~Jend that a substantial fence be built entirely around the cm~p and that the cooperation·of the neighbors owni~g adjoining land be secured~lding this fence. We further recor.~~end that all troops shall be encouraged to build cabins during 1931 so that eac:':l troop rJ.a.y have its own hone in the woods. We also recor~nend that every effort be r.18.de to secure the building of the dam so that our long hoped for lake may become a reality. Respectfully subnitted, CAMP CURRIER COMMITTEE :Sy£J.

They have done their work gladly, efficiently, and ~ith the true spirit of Scouting. Ever;y~ member of the Council should be proud of the record our boys have made. Some of their activities are as follows: 1. Distributed sixty thousand cards giving directions for the control of mosquito breeding for the Department of Health. This required all the troops in Mcmp:1is and was the largest single undertalci~g our Scouts have ever participated in. 2. Distributed posters for the h1em9his Community Flmd. 3. Packed and delivered baskets for the Good Fellows two days. 4. Eight Eagle Scouts served as pages to Governor Henry H. Horton on his visit to ?viemohis. 5. Four troops served as ushers at the Ellis Audi torium during the celebration of the return of the tvrn Confederate battle flag'S. 6.

Our Merit Eadge Counselors in Public Health have required Scouts to go to tho Department of noalth for inforw~tion and instruction before passing tht: Merit Bad{~e for Public Heal th. This has proved a soured of much help to the boys and. through them to the comrrnmity. We are particulady proud of the splendid work the bo;ys did in distributin::; the sixt3r thousand cu,rds for the Department of Health. T'.ais civic good turn required all the troops in the city in order that it could be done quickly and efficiently. .According to Dr. L. M.

DECEMBER 5, 1930 **** REPORT OF HEALTH AND SAFETY C 0 M M I T T :El E The Health and Safety Committee is glad to report that an exceptional record has been made by Scouts who attended Camp Currier, Kamp Kia Kirna., and Camp Daniels. There were no serious accidents at any of these camps and not a single boy was sent home on account of injuries received at camp. Not only were there no serious injuries but there was practically no sickness and no Scout was confined to a hospital for more than three days during the year. Three or four boys at Kamp Kia Kima suffered from malaria which we are confident they brought with them to camp from their homes. However, they responded very quickly to the treatment administered by Dr. George Burkle, Camp Physician, and were soon able to enjoy all the pleasure of camp, Many of our Scouts are cooperating in safety work by directing - traffic at the. various schools and in escorting safely across the streets the children who are going to school. This is not done as a Scouting activity but simply as a· help to the school authorities and the Chamber of Commerce. Our Scouts have added to the safety of many large gatherings of people by holding back the crow~s from the line of march of parades, etc. We feel that the boys have done much along this line. Jµ :our opinion, one of the greatest things they did during the year towards: protecting the health of tl1e entire city was the distribution of 60,000 cards. giving instruction on the prevention of mosquito breeding. Attached to, .tb'.is card was a post card directed to the Board of Health so that in.alt the homes in Memphis the people had information as to what to do to control mosquitoes and in the event t:hey were unable to handle it themselves;· 'they had the post card which they could send to the Board of Health and t~ereby receive immediate assistance from the city. These cards came back to the Board of Health throughout the mosquito season and were of much ass'i'stance in locating breeding places of mosquitoes. For 1931 we reconu'!lend that Scouts continue in their good work this year. have as they Respectfully submitted, HEALTH AND SAFETY COMMITTEE By ...' · ' . .~. fn L~ ~hf Chairman �CHICK.AS.AW CO'L":N'CIL, B.

ANNUAL MEETING, DECEhJ3ER 5, 1930 * * "' * BEFORT OF INTER-RACL\L ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE Your Committee is ~lad to report that during.this year two new . troops of negro boys have been ori;a.n:i.zed.. We now have eight active troops • ... !• For t11e first time in ·the ·history of the ·CoUn:c11 a camp known as Camp Daniels was conducted for the benefit of negro boys. The site of the camp was in the northeastern section of Douglass Park, permission to use this ground being granted by the City Park.Commissio n. The camp was started on August 12th and cloBed on AUG11st. 17th with eighteen boys repr~' senting five churches in attendance. This camp site is very.good as it is close to Wolf River and the boys had plenty of sw'imming. Two of our white Scoutmasters, Mr. Ben B. Coffey of Troop l and Mr. c. c. Brown, Jr.~ of Troop 38, visited the camp and gave instruction in Bird Study and First Aid. The boys thoroughly enjoyed their camp which was under the direction of J. A. Beau.champ, Assistant to Mr. Stanley A. Harris, National Director of InterRacial Activities. This camp was financed entirely by the institutions of colored people who are sponsoring Scout troops and did not cost Chickasaw Council one cent. In our opinion thin is a big step forward and we recommend another camp be held for the colored boys next year. Negro men are taking great interest in Scout training as is evidenced by the fact that 74 men attended the training schools conducted by the Council during this year. For 1931 we recorr.mend: l. That all First Class negro Scouts be permitted to wear the official uniform, as with Richmond, Va.• Hot Springs and Fort Smith, Ark., and many other Southern cities. 2. That the Council permit the organization of additional Scout troops other than the ten now authorized by the Executive 'Board. We feel there should be no restriction on the number of troops where full support a..."ld cooperation from a sponsoring institution is assured and the Scoutmaster has attended the necessary course of instruction.

Therefo re, ':le had to spend $1,057.7 0 for various kinds of equipme nt as co~yared to $541.79 in 1929.

There were 231.Merit Badges awarded to 143 Scouts. Two Senior and ten Junior Red Cross Life Saving certificates were awarded. For 1931 we recommend that every effort be ma.de to secure an even larGer attendance, as we feel that the attendance at camp is of tremendous benefit to the boys and throU&-11 them to the troop and to Scouting as a whole. Troops who camp are usually permanent troops and we want to lay especial stress on 8etting a larGer nTu~ber of boys to go to camp. We further recommend that funds be made ~vailable for the repairs whic~ are u.rsently needed at can~. M9.ny of the roofs of the lodges leak badly. The Mess Hall should be rescreened and there are several lo"dc;es which need new screens on them.

AN.I.iJU.AL l!JEETING, D:iliC:iiJMBER 5, 1930 **** \ REPORT OF OUTFITTERS COMMITTEE The various memb~rs of the Committee have inspected the stock of Scout supplies carried by the three Scout Outfitters; namely, The New Bry's, J. Goldsmith and Sons, and Phil A. Ho.lle, and found that they were adequate • .Also, the members of the Committee have found that Scout equipment is being displayed by the Outfitters to better advantage than in the past and that the throe stores are cooparating by giving publicity in their windows and in the stores by displaying Scout equipment. ' \ Ono of the most notable features of this display was the wonderful log cabin built by The New Bry 1s for the use of Scouts. This cabin was constructed on the second floor of the store, adjacent to the department w~ich sells Scout equipment. It is an ideal meeting place for Scouts and contains mn.ny objects of interest including a bulletin board, stuffed animals, snakeskins, horns, etc. It is of much interest to the boys and we feel that T,he New Bry 1 s and Mr. ~dWQrd M. Salomon are due especial credit for their splendid cooperation in constructing this building. It is one of the most unique displays ue have ever had the pleasure of seeing and ~e believe it has been a source of much help to Scouting. At various times during the year the question of allowing the negro boy to use the official Scout uniform has been called to our attention. On the recommendation of Mr. Stanley A. Ho.rria, National Director of Inter-&l.cial Ac ti vi ties, vrn have permitted the negro boys to purchase the Chieftain Camping uniform sold b~r Sears-Roebuck and Company. However, we do not believe this uniform has appealed to the boys and we do not believe it has been used to a very great extent. For 1931 we recommend that the Committee inspect the Outfitters at least quarterly to ascertain the amount of supplies carried, the displays made in tha stores of these su-pplies, and the displays made in the windows of each store. We also recommend that the Committee request each Outfitter to displa¥ a full window of Scout sup~lies and equipment at least once· each quarter. We also recorrnnend that the Outfitters be r~quired by the Corrnnittee to display their goods in the store in a conspicuous place and not have Scout equipment stored away out of sig.,.11.t of boys who come in to purc!lase.

Our Comnittee has been ha~dicapped through. the entire lack of funds, no money being allowed in the·budget to take care of Sea Scout activities. Numerous efforts have been made to secure a boat, but unfortunately, they have all been unsuccessful. The Council has dropped four troops of Scouts during the year 1930, two of which were Sea Scout Ships. We a·~e not proud of this record, but until such time as money is available for this program we do not see how it can be pushed to a very successful conclusion. One Sea Scout Ship has been organized during the year, the s.s.s. Bonita at the Galloway Memorial Methodist Church. 'l'hese boys also wanted a boat and when they discovered there was no money available from the Council for it they got busy and are now working on a 25 foot motor launch, the keel of which ~as laid in the Athletic Building at the Fair Grounds on October 28th. We are proud of the initiative shown by this ship under the leadership of Skipper C. B. Kennedy and we expect to cooperate with him in every way towards the completion of this boat. For 1931 we recommend: ..... 1. '!'hat at least $500.00 be provided in the Council budget for Sea Scouting. 2. That a boat at least 30 feot long be secured for the use.of Sea Scouts under the direction and control of the Council through the Scout Executive. 3. That additional Sea Scout troops be organized wherever practical and that the Sea Scout program be made available to as many of our older Scouts as possible.

We feel very proud of this, as there is no doubt in our mind that training of Scout Leaders is the keynote of successful troops. The Minimum Course of the 5 Year Training Program was given in~/ the spring to a class of 34 men, 20 of whom were awarded certificates. Immediately following this course the Approved Course was put on with 21 members, lS of whom received cert'ifieates. In the fall the Minimum Course was again given to our leaders with 32 members ta.~ing this training. In these two courses a total of 87 white leaders was given instruction in Scouting and they have been a very great benefit to these men. We are greatly indebted to the experienced Scout Leaders who have served as officers in these various .training schools: Messrs. Ross A. Ma.thews and R. G. Walls, Sr., have served as Scoutmasters of the schools; Messrs. George Klepper and L. R. Taylor were the Assistant Scoutmasters; Mr. Willard E. Hays was the Scribe; Mr. W. Gordon Morris was Senior Patrol Leader; and Mr. :Sen Coffey, Jr., Scoutmaster of Troop l, Mr. Joe Flanagan, Scoutmaster of Troop 3, Mr. Howard Pritchard, Scoutmaster of Troop 5, Mr. C. C. Brown, Jr., Scoutmaster of Troop 38, and Mr. James Fentress, then District Commissioner, served as Patrol Leaders. Messrs. Coffey and Flanagan have served in all three of the schools which were conducted. We are deeply indebted to the volunteer leaders who did such splendid work in giving freely of their time and effort toward helping the men who have not ·had as great experience in Scouting as they have. The Y. M. C. A. has cooperated with and assisted us tremendously by giving the use of a room in which to hold our training sessions. We deep~ ly appreciate their help and their splendid spirit of cooperation. The negro leaders of the Council have also been given training under the leadership of J. A. Beauchamp, Assistant to Mr. Stanley A. Harris, National Director of Inter-Racial Activities. In the Training School in the spring 28 members composed the class, while the fall course had 46 members, a total of 74 negro leaders who received training during the year. This is a large step in the right direction and we feel it will mean much to the negro Scout troops of this Council. For 1931 we recommend that cont.inued emphasis be placed on. the training of Sco~t Leaders, also that Specialization Courses in First Aid and other subjects be given whenever practical.

During 1930 the Cou_,.1cil dropped five troops, h10 of which were Sea Scout Ships.

Wlien the time for reregistration came arou.11d all but one of the boys had been discharged from tho Sanitarium as cured and there were no boys, therefore, available to rer.egister the troop. Some of those boys have since joined other troops in the city, which is very pleasing to us. For 1931 we recommend that as many new troops be organized as the :mxecutive Board thinks is wise in view of the financial situation.

Our average as shown by the four reports of the Bureau is 58.5. The nearest average to us is that of Tullahoma, Tennessee, which has 56.0. Chickasaw Council is far in advance of the larger Councils of the Region, its nearest competitors being Birmingham with 53.5, Nashville 49.5, Little Rock 48.3, and New Orleans 45.0. In arriving at the figures above quoted, the Statistical Bureau takes in consideration the net gain in troops, the net number of dropped troops, new troops, lapsed troops, net gain. in Scouts, net dropped Scouts, new Scouts, Tenderfoot Scouts, First Class Scouts, and the ratio between Tenderfoot and First Class. Scouts have shoun a marked improvement in advancement this year, as last year only 65 boys won their First Class badges as compared to 114 this year, an increase of 6o%. In 1929, 746 merit badges were awarded by the Court of Honor, whereas, this year 1,150 were a~arded, an increase of 54.2%. 1929 shows only 8 boys attaining the ran...~ of Ea~le Scout; whoroas, this year we have 12 boys who have been awarded their Eagie Badges, by the The camping record of the Council is excellent, as will be noted below: figui~es CaIJ1P Attendance December 1 1 1930 December 1, 1929 Camp Currier, 3,564 Scout Days Kamp Kia Kima., 736 Scout Weeks Kamp Kia Kima, 269 Scouts 1,941 Scout Days 562 Scout Weeks 180 Scouts Gain 1,623 days or 83.6% 174 weeks or 30.9% 89 Scouts or 49.4% The large attendance at Camp Currier is due ma.inly, I believe, Page 23. �REPORT OF SCOUT EXi::iCUTIVE (Continue d) to the fact that a swimming pool ~w.s construct ed which e;ave the boys an opportunity to swim uithout having to go off the carr:p. The pool proved a tremendou s attractio n. I feel sure that as soon as a dam is built and a lake formed at Camp Currier the additiona l attractio ns of boating, fishing, and swimming will double the present number 9f boy days. I At Camp Currier we now have 15 complete cabins owned by various troops and 9 cabins in course of construct ion, ~horeas, on the first of December lo.st year we had only 8 complete cabins nith 5 others in course of const1~uction. The Carr:p Currier Lnkc Fund was started this year by Mrs. Elizabeth B. Currier of Geneva, Switzerla nd. Mrs. Currier donated $300.00 to the Fund and as additiona l contribut ions are received th.ey will be added to the Fund until suf'ficien t money is available to build the dam. The Council is indeed indebted to W~s. Currier for her splzndid idea and the many generous donations . At Kanrp Kia Kinn we had the pleasure of 1:w.v ing 56 boys from the St. Francis Valley Council with headquar ters at Blythevi lle, .i'.\.rkr.msas. We are glad to have had them with us and hope they ~vill return next year • .A.t both Ca.mp Currier and Kanp ICia !Cima the attendn.nc e has been by lonG odds the greatest in the history of the Cotincil. This is very encoura-:;ing , as I believe that troops who crurrp get the most out of Scouting and that they are as a uhole more permanent than troops who do not periodically eet in the great outdoors. The first negro Scout CD.mp ever held in Chiclr..asnw Council was conducted this year. It lasted but 5 days but was the beginning of v1hat should be a. permo.nent c.:trr:ping proQ~r:.::.m for ne~o Scouts. Next year I feel sure it will last at least 2 weeks. It undoubted ly helped not only the negro boys but the neg:ro men who attended. T'.ais year has also seen the greatest number of Sco.ut Leaders trained in the history of the Council. We used tho outline of the 5 Year Progressi ve Training Program approved by the National Council. We have had two Minimum Courses and one Approved Course for our r1hi t~ Scout Leaders and two Minimum Courses for tl1e negro Scout Leaders. The Coundl is greatly indebted to the followin~:; Scout Leadors who served in the Tri:.dning Courses: Messrs. Ross .A. Mathews and R. G. Walls, Sr., Scoutmas ters; Messrs. George Klepper and L. R. Taylor, Assistant Scoutmas ters; Mr. W. E. Hays, Scribe; Messrs. Ben B. Coffey, Jr., Joe Flanagan, Howard Pritchard , James Fentress, and C. C. Brown, Jr., Patrol Leaders, Messrs.

Harris, National Director of Inter-Rac ial Activ- ities. I am indeed glad to report that every troop in the Council is led by an efficient Scoutmas ter • . Page 24. no~ �BEPORT OF SCOUT EXECUTIVE (Cont,~nued) T'nis year has seen a IrlD.rked improvement i~\ the Scout Leaders Round Table, the average attendance beinc-; about 60 Scout Load'ers. The Council is indebted to Mr. Walter Gray uho has so splendidly coope~ated throughout the year by preparint~ and se1"Vin:; without cost to the Council ~ splendid meal for the Round Table once each month. Mr. Grey does not receiv6, one cent of profit but through his interest in Scouting donates the tremendous amount of work necessary to :r:r.ake the Round Table a success. For the last 5 years Chickasaw Council has been tremendously handicapped by the lack of funds. This year our budget is $11,910.00 to cover the opsrations of 70 troops. In 1921, the Council budcet ~as $12,053.00 with only 18 troops on tho roll. The lack of ample finance retards the development of the Council, but in view of the existing financial situation throuehout the cotmtry I feel we have made splendid pro 1:;ress with the money available. Chickas~w Council could not have made the splendid record it has for this year had not the Officers and the Executive Board, the Council Members, the Members of the various Committees, Merit Bad,se Counselors, Scoutmasters and Assist~nt Scout:mo.sters cooperated at all times. Many demands for time have been made on so::ie of our Scouters .that the.y could ill afford to __ gtv:e, out they have helped whenever and 'rlherever they. could and I uant to ta1~e this opportunity to ·th~n..~ them for the thought they have given, the sacrifices they have made and the real 11ork that has been done that our Council mi(~11.t .. give to_our boys every op?ortunity to become better citizens through the nnnifold advantaees of Scouting. Without the help and cooporation of these gentlemen we would be far from the leading Council .in Region 5. In planning the work of tl1e Cou:acil fo~ 1931 I recommend: \ 1, That especial emphasis be placed on the trairting of leaders and that at least four trn.b.ing schools be conducted. 2. That a lake be built at Camp Currier. I feel th~ building of the dar:: and the formation of a lake from it uill be the greatest stimulus we could have at caup, as it will create a greater interest o.none; the boys and also among the supporting constituency of the Council. 3. That more boys be recrui tod in our troops and that 15 new troops be orc;anized. 4. That we have a Merit Badge Exi~osition similar to the one held in 1928 whenever financial conditions will permit. 5. That ~e r:Jaintain hish standards in all events involved in Scouting technique and especially in the award of merit badges. 6, That Sea ScoutinG be encouraGed and a boat be provided for the use of our Sea Scouts. 7. That we give the advantaJs of the Scouting program to ne&To boys whenever and i7herever troops can be or~anized with i:iroper leadership and supervision. Page 25. \ �RElPOil.T OF SCOUT EXECU'I'IVE (Continued) 8.

B. S. A. ANlIDAL MEETING, D3JCEMBER 5, 1930 * * * * REPORT OF .ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE The Activities Committee is proud of the work which has been accomplished during the past year. We feel that the Council is indeed. fortunate in having such a splendid group of men who are actively serving with the troops. Every troop has a Scoutmaster and a large majority of them have one or more Assistant Scoutmasters. This has resulted in the boys participating very actively in all Cou;.1cil activities. The Inter-Troop Rally Tournament which ran for ~b,ut three months in 1929 and 30 has proved a tremendous success. In this to ment the troops are divided up into leagues, each league having an In ian name. The rallies are run on schedule and each rally contains a number of Scouting events such as Inspection, O'Gracy Drill, First Aid, Fire by Flint and Steel, Semaphore Signalling, Knot Tying, and Morse Signalling. Participation of troops in these rallies has resulted in an increased stimulation in the technique of Scouting and we feel that much good has resulted from these rallies. Another Inter-Troop Ra.lly Tournament will start on December 12th and will run well into the new year. The Activities Committee has had a great deal of help from a splendid group of men who are serving as District Commissioners and as referees for rallies. All the leagues in the Inter-Troop Rally Tournament with one exception are supervised by District Corrmissioners. We now have a Commissioner, a Deputy Commissioner, and eight District Commissioners actively working with the troops, whereas, last year wo had only one or two men who could be counted on to serve in the capacity of a District Comrnissioner"i. We feel that the general condition of the troops of Chickasaw Council is good. There aro some troops who are weak in Scouting technique and they consequently need nm.ch help from Headquarters and from the District Commissioners. Je therefore recommend that every effort be made. to continue to secui·e efficient men to serve as District Com.~issioners and that the Council follow up the plan of Intor-Troop Rallies from year to year. Respectfully submitted, ACTIVITIES COMMITT.EE Page 1. CHICY:...1\.SAW COlniTCIL, :S. So Ao ANNUAL MEETJN'J:.1 .. J)ECEMBE.R 5. 1930 * * * * R E_.P 0 R T 0 F CAMP CURRIER C 0 M M I T T E E Your Conuni ttee is proud of the splendid record of Camp Currier. Fur the past year the camp has undoubtedly had the ber.t year in its history :ln1.1.omuch as there has been more bttllding of cabins, larger attendance, and e;i·outer interest than ever before. As of December 1st, there are 15 complete cabins on the camp as compared to 8 cabins which were complete on December l~ 1929. These completed cabins are owned by Troops 5, 8, 15, 16, 19, 25, 27, 29, 33, 34, 40, 41 1 49, 50, and the Kelley Cabin which is owned by the Council.. Last year thore were only 5 cabins in course of construction, whereas, on this date we have 9 cabins on which the troops are buildingo 6 of these caoins were Gtarted this year. Troops 6, 7, 9, 11, 13, 32, 38, 43, and 66 are working on cabins at the present time. All of these cabins, with the exception of Troops 9, 11, and 13 were started in 1930. We are very ple?-sed at the unuaual amount of building which has taken place in camp, especially in view of the depressed financial conditions which have existed for the last six 01· eight months. The equipment of the camp on December 1, 1930, therefo're, is the Headquarters Cabin with pUinp house and garage, the old Burrows Cabin with stable and cistern, the Lone Stable and cistern, and the new Kelley Cabin and cistern, all of these being owned by the Council, together with 14 troop cabins complete and in use, and the 9 troop cabins in course of construction. Plans for the cabins of Troops 21 and 56 have been approved and these troops will undoUbtedly start work in t.he near futureo The gre~test single improvement to the camp during the year was the construction o;J~a swimming pool 60 feet wide and 120 feet long and 6! feet deep. It was dug in a valley near the central part of the ca1"1p and has the appearance of a natural pool rather than an artificial swimming pool. There is a continuous flow of spring water wi1ich results in its being kept unusually pure. Particular attention has been given to the prevention of accidents and there has not been a single accident during this year. 175 Black Bass Fingerlings were put in the stream which feeds the pool and good fishing should result within the next few years~ The attendance at camp has been the largest in its history due, we believe, principally to the swimming facilities provided by the pool. In 1930 there was a total.of 3,564 Scout days as compared to 1,941 last year, an increase of 83.6% in the nuinber of Scout dayso In 1930 1,327 people visited the c~p as compared with 874 ih 1929 or an increase of 51.8%0 One of the most important steps toward the welfare of the future of the camp was the starting of the Camp Currier lake Fund, which plan was originated by Mrs. Elizabeth B. Currier of Geneva, Switzerland. Mrs. Currier donated $300.00 toward this fund and it is the plan to keep it in the savings bank and add to it whenever donations are received. This fund has for its REPORT OF CAMP CURRIER COMMITTEE (Continued) purpose the building of a dam across one of the valleys in the northwestern part of the camp. When this dam is constructed there will be a body of water formed of approximately 25 acreso We believe that this fund will continue to grow and we wish to express our deep appreciation to Mrs. Currier for the idea and also for her gonerosi ty in starting it. We are also indebted to Mrs •. Currier for many donations which she .has given to the camp from time to time, as her generosity has resulted in tremendous improvements of the car.1p. The problem of transportation has been solved to a large extent by making the program and attractions of the camp so alluring that the boys find wa;ys of their own to travel back and forth. Eternal vigilance and the presence of so many Scouts and visitors has reduced poaching so that it is no longer a serious menace and the people in the comraunity around the ca.~p have recognized the importance of this caDp preserve and have given it their ooral support and protection. Lack of wells to supply drinking water is one of the most desperate needs of the canp. Troops which are cnr.1ping at the northern end of ca.inp have approximately a mile to travel in order to get drinking watero Therefore, we recornr:i.end that at least two wells be constructed during 1931 so that troops may be supplied with drinking water without having to go to Headquarters for it. We also recoL~Jend that a substantial fence be built entirely around the cm~p and that the cooperation·of the neighbors owni~g adjoining land be secured~lding this fence. We further recor.~~end that all troops shall be encouraged to build cabins during 1931 so that eac:':l troop rJ.a.y have its own hone in the woods. We also recor~nend that every effort be r.18.de to secure the building of the dam so that our long hoped for lake may become a reality. Respectfully subnitted, CAMP CURRIER COMMITTEE :Sy£J. Page 3.

They have done their work gladly, efficiently, and ~ith the true spirit of Scouting. Ever;y~ member of the Council should be proud of the record our boys have made. Some of their activities are as follows: 1. Distributed sixty thousand cards giving directions for the control of mosquito breeding for the Department of Health. This required all the troops in Mcmp:1is and was the largest single undertalci~g our Scouts have ever participated in. 2. Distributed posters for the h1em9his Community Flmd. 3.

This has proved a soured of much help to the boys and. through them to the comrrnmity. We are particulady proud of the splendid work the bo;ys did in distributin::; the sixt3r thousand cu,rds for the Department of Health. T'.ais civic good turn required all the troops in the city in order that it could be done quickly and efficiently. .According to Dr. L. M.

CHICKASAW COUNCIL. B. S. A. Al'll:n:JAL MEETING. DECEMBER 5, 1930 * * * * REPORT OF HEALTH AND SAFETY C 0 M M I T T :El E The Health and Safety Committee is glad to report that an exceptional record has been made by Scouts who attended Camp Currier, Kamp Kia Kirna., and Camp Daniels. There were no serious accidents at any of these camps and not a single boy was sent home on account of injuries received at camp. Not only were there no serious injuries but there was practically no sickness and no Scout was confined to a hospital for more than three days during the year. Three or four boys at Kamp Kia Kima suffered from malaria which we are confident they brought with them to camp from their homes. However, they responded very quickly to the treatment administered by Dr. George Burkle, Camp Physician, and were soon able to enjoy all the pleasure of camp, Many of our Scouts are cooperating in safety work by directing - traffic at the. various schools and in escorting safely across the streets the children who are going to school. This is not done as a Scouting activity but simply as a· help to the school authorities and the Chamber of Commerce. ... · ' Our Scouts have added to the safety of many large gatherings of people by holding back the crow~s from the line of march of parades, etc. We feel that the boys have done much along this line. Jμ :our opinion, one of the greatest things they did during the year towards: protecting the health of tl1e entire city was the distribution of 60,000 cards. giving instruction on the prevention of mosquito breeding. Attached to, .tb'.is card was a post card directed to the Board of Health so that in.alt the homes in Memphis the people had information as to what to do to control mosquitoes and in the event t:hey were unable to handle it themselves;· 'they had the post card which they could send to the Board of Health and t~ereby receive immediate assistance from the city. These cards came back to the Board of Health throughout the mosquito season and were of much ass'i'stance in locating breeding places of mosquitoes. For 1931 we reconu'!lend that Scouts continue in their good work as they have this year. Respectfully submitted, HEALTH AND SAFETY COMMITTEE By ~hf.~. fn L~ Chairman ' . CHICK.AS.AW CO'L":N'CIL, B. S. A. ANNUAL MEETING, DECEhJ3ER 5, 1930 * * "' * BEFORT OF INTER-RACL\L ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE Your Committee is ~lad to report that during.this year two new . troops of negro boys have been ori;a.n:i.zed.. We now have eight active troops • ... !• For t11e first time in ·the ·history of the ·CoUn:c11 a camp known as Camp Daniels was conducted for the benefit of negro boys. The site of the camp was in the northeastern section of Douglass Park, permission to use this ground being granted by the City Park.Commission. The camp was started on August 12th and cloBed on AUG11st. 17th with eighteen boys repr~' senting five churches in attendance. This camp site is very.good as it is close to Wolf River and the boys had plenty of sw'imming. Two of our white Scoutmasters, Mr. Ben B. Coffey of Troop l and Mr. c. c. Brown, Jr.~ of Troop 38, visited the camp and gave instruction in Bird Study and First Aid. The boys thoroughly enjoyed their camp which was under the direction of J. A. Beau.champ, Assistant to Mr. Stanley A. Harris, National Director of InterRacial Activities. This camp was financed entirely by the institutions of colored people who are sponsoring Scout troops and did not cost Chickasaw Council one cent. In our opinion thin is a big step forward and we recommend another camp be held for the colored boys next year. Negro men are taking great interest in Scout training as is evidenced by the fact that 74 men attended the training schools conducted by the Council during this year. For 1931 we recorr.mend: l. That all First Class negro Scouts be permitted to wear the official uniform, as with Richmond, Va.• Hot Springs and Fort Smith, Ark., and many other Southern cities. 2. That the Council permit the organization of additional Scout troops other than the ten now authorized by the Executive 'Board. We feel there should be no restriction on the number of troops where full support a..."ld cooperation from a sponsoring institution is assured and the Scoutmaster has attended the necessary course of instruction. Respectfully submitted, INTER-RACIAL ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE . Page 11 CHICKASAW COUNCIL. B. s. A. Am!!JAL ICETING, DZCEMBER 5, 1930 l(c * l(c * REPORT OF KAMP KIA KIMA COMMITTEE The attendance a.t Kamp Xia Kiroa for its 15th season was the larcest in the history of the camp, 269 boys having attended as compared to 180 in 1929. This is an incroa.se of 49.4%~ The average \7ee1dy attendance at camp uas 73 boys as co~arod to 56 boys in 1929. The increase was caused partially by the fact that the St. Francis Valley Council, with headquarters at ~lytheville, Ark., sent some of their boys to our.ca.mp this year, The large attendance naturally increased the number of boy weeks.and no had 736 boy weeks as compared to 562 in 1929 or o.n increase of 30. 9%.·- We are very gla.d to have had such a large attendance and to have had the 56 boys from the St. Francis Valley Council who camped with us, for the the St. them to The St. Francis Valley Council paid Chickasaw Council $175.00 privilege of its boys attending ·ID.imp Kia Xinia.. ~e cordially invite Francis Valley to camp '7ith us again in 1931, as we are glad for use the facilities of Kia Kima.. The large number of boys required additional equipr.ient in the way of dishes, cutlery, and mattresses. Therefore, ':le had to spend $1,057.70 for various kinds of equipment as co~yared to $541.79 in 1929. The heal th of the camp vms excellent throug.;.1.out the season wi fa only a very few cases of mo.la.ria which the co.op doctor feels sure were brou::;ht to camp by the boys. ill standini::; vmter, st~s, sloug...11s, etc., within a radius of a half r.rl.le of tho cam_;;i •<ere oiled thorou&hly twice during the sEJa~on and there were -practically no r.10squitoes. This was lar ~ely due to the extre416ly dry weather which provn.iled t~1roughout the cany;iing season. Every effort \7as r:iado to hold the· cost of the ~ to tho minir.:mo but even with the r:aost careful supervision the co.r.:ip lost $215.97 duriw; the ten weeks of its operation, this deficit being made up by funds provided by the Meqphis Cor.nuni ty Fund • .Another tennis court ·,ms built this season and was inclosed with wire. The t~o tennis courts ?rovided a great deal of pleasure for the boys and they were constantly used all throu::;h the year • . Through the efforts of our President, Mr. Edward M. Salomon, a C&:."J? library ·>las starte·d and we nou have a.bout a hundred books O\med by the ca.1"1p whic~ were donated throuGh Mr. Salor:ion. We wish to express our appreciation to the Cossitt Library for their splendid cooperation in sendinc to the ca:;:p about five hundre·d books which were thorou;.~ly enjoyed by the boys. Each year the.Cossitt Library cooperates with the car:rp. in furnishin~ a ~ood library and it is a source of much pl0asure to our boys. Page 12. ~ORT OF KAMP lUA l{IMA COMMITTEE (Continued) There were no serious accidents at cw'.1p this year and the heal th of the boys was exceptionally good. iVe believe that a boy is safer in car:ip than he is on the streets of Me~10his. . ~ The advancement program was better this year than last, three Scouts advancing from Tenderfoot to Second Class, twelve from Second Class to First Class, and three.to Ea~le. There were 231.Merit Badges awarded to 143 Scouts. Two Senior and ten Junior Red Cross Life Saving certificates were awarded. For 1931 we recommend that every effort be ma.de to secure an even larGer attendance, as we feel that the attendance at camp is of tremendous benefit to the boys and throU&-11 them to the troop and to Scouting as a whole. Troops who camp are usually permanent troops and we want to lay especial stress on 8etting a larGer nTu~ber of boys to go to camp. We further recommend that funds be made ~vailable for the repairs whic~ are u.rsently needed at can~. M9.ny of the roofs of the lodges leak badly. The Mess Hall should be rescreened and there are several lo"dc;es which need new screens on them. These iter.:ls do not show up on a casual inspection of the camp but they are desperately needed and should be attended to with the least possible delay.

AN.I.iJU.AL l!JEETING, D:iliC:iiJMBER 5, 1930 * * * * \ REPORT OF OUTFITTERS COMMITTEE The various memb~rs of the Committee have inspected the stock of Scout supplies carried by the three Scout Outfitters; namely, The New Bry's, J. Goldsmith and Sons, and Phil A. Ho.lle, and found that they were adequate • .Also, the members of the Committee have found that Scout equipment is being displayed by the Outfitters to better advantage than in the past and that the throe stores are cooparating by giving publicity in their windows and in \ the stores by displaying Scout equipment. ' Ono of the most notable features of this display was the wonderful log cabin built by The New Bry 1s for the use of Scouts. This cabin was constructed on the second floor of the store, adjacent to the department w~ich sells Scout equipment. It is an ideal meeting place for Scouts and contains mn.ny objects of interest including a bulletin board, stuffed animals, snakeskins, horns, etc. It is of much interest to the boys and we feel that T,he New Bry 1s and Mr. ~dWQrd M. Salomon are due especial credit for their splendid cooperation in constructing this building. It is one of the most unique displays ue have ever had the pleasure of seeing and ~e believe it has been a source of much help to Scouting. At various times during the year the question of allowing the negro boy to use the official Scout uniform has been called to our attention. On the recommendation of Mr. Stanley A. Ho.rria, National Director of Inter-&l.cial Ac ti vi ties, vrn have permitted the negro boys to purchase the Chieftain Camping uniform sold b~r Sears-Roebuck and Company. However, we do not believe this uniform has appealed to the boys and we do not believe it has been used to a very great extent. For 1931 we recommend that the Committee inspect the Outfitters at least quarterly to ascertain the amount of supplies carried, the displays made in tha stores of these su-pplies, and the displays made in the windows of each store. We also recommend that the Committee request each Outfitter to displa¥ a full window of Scout sup~lies and equipment at least once· each quarter. We also recorrnnend that the Outfitters be r~quired by the Corrnnittee to display their goods in the store in a conspicuous place and not have Scout equipment stored away out of sig.,.11.t of boys who come in to purc!lase.

The Council has published in the Council office a little paper known as· 11 The Council Fire. 11 This paper is of ouch help to the troops, .as it enables the Executive to.explain to the Scoutr.1£1.sters the activities planned for the Council, the cnr.1ps, etc. For the greater part of the year 11 The Council Fire" was sent only to Scoutr.1asters, Assistant Scout1:ia.sters, and Chairr.len of Troop Cotu~ittees, but for tne last two oonths, it was sent to all Meubers of the Council ond Merit '.Badge Counselors as well. For the year 1931 we recoLu:iend: 1. That special efforts be oa.de to secure additional space in newspapers and that editorials, news iteos, and other publicity features be used as fr.eely as pO$sible, 2. That as soon as funds a.re available the circulation of 11 The Council Fire 11 be enlarged to take ;i,.n all the pastors of the churches and the institutions sponsoring Scout troops and also that all ner.1bers of the Troop Cor.ni ttees be sent this 1i ttle paper. 3.

A • .ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 5, 1930 * * * * REPORT OF SEA S C 0 U T C 0 M M I T T E E Your Committee feels that Sea Scouting is one of the best means of holding the older boys in the Scout movement as a Sea Scout program is built for the use of older boys. Our Comnittee has been ha~dicapped through. the entire lack of funds, no money being allowed in the·budget to take care of Sea Scout activities. Numerous efforts have been made to secure a boat, but unfortunately, they have all been unsuccessful. The Council has dropped four troops of Scouts during the year 1930, two of which were Sea Scout Ships. We a·~e not proud of this record, but until such time as money is available for this program we do not see how it can be pushed to a very successful conclusion. One Sea Scout Ship has been organized during the year, the s.s.s. Bonita at the Galloway Memorial Methodist Church. 'l'hese boys also wanted a boat and when they discovered there was no money available from the Council for it they got busy and are now working on a 25 foot motor launch, the keel of which ~as laid in the Athletic Building at the Fair Grounds on October 28th. We are proud of the initiative shown by this ship under the leadership of Skipper C. B. Kennedy and we expect to cooperate with him in every way towards the completion of this boat. For 1931 we recommend: ..... 1. '!'hat at least $500.00 be provided in the Council budget for Sea Scouting. 2. That a boat at least 30 feot long be secured for the use.of Sea Scouts under the direction and control of the Council through the Scout Executive. 3. That additional Sea Scout troops be organized wherever practical and that the Sea Scout program be made available to as many of our older Scouts as possible. Respectfully submitted, Page 18. CHICKASA\V COUNCIL, B. S • .A • .ANNUAL MEETING, DECEW~ER 5. 1930 * * * * REPORT OF TRAINING COMMITTEE It is our privilege to report that du.ring the year 1930 gTeater ell!Phasis has been placed on training of Scout Lead~rs than at any time du.ring the history of the Oouncil. We feel very proud of this, as there is no doubt in our mind that training of Scout Leaders is the keynote of successful troops. The Minimum Course of the 5 Year Training Program was given in~/ the spring to a class of 34 men, 20 of whom were awarded certificates. Immediately following this course the Approved Course was put on with 21 members, lS of whom received cert'ifieates. In the fall the Minimum Course was again given to our leaders with 32 members ta.~ing this training. In these two courses a total of 87 white leaders was given instruction in Scouting and they have been a very great benefit to these men. We are greatly indebted to the experienced Scout Leaders who have served as officers in these various .training schools: Messrs. Ross A. Ma.thews and R. G. Walls, Sr., have served as Scoutmasters of the schools; Messrs. George Klepper and L. R. Taylor were the Assistant Scoutmasters; Mr. Willard E. Hays was the Scribe; Mr. W. Gordon Morris was Senior Patrol Leader; and Mr. :Sen Coffey, Jr., Scoutmaster of Troop l, Mr. Joe Flanagan, Scoutmaster of Troop 3, Mr. Howard Pritchard, Scoutmaster of Troop 5, Mr. C. C. Brown, Jr., Scoutmaster of Troop 38, and Mr. James Fentress, then District Commissioner, served as Patrol Leaders. Messrs. Coffey and Flanagan have served in all three of the schools which were conducted. We are deeply indebted to the volunteer leaders who did such splendid work in giving freely of their time and effort toward helping the men who have not ·had as great experience in Scouting as they have. The Y. M. C. A. has cooperated with and assisted us tremendously by giving the use of a room in which to hold our training sessions. We deep~ ly appreciate their help and their splendid spirit of cooperation. The negro leaders of the Council have also been given training under the leadership of J. A. Beauchamp, Assistant to Mr. Stanley A. Harris, National Director of Inter-Racial Activities. In the Training School in the spring 28 members composed the class, while the fall course had 46 members, a total of 74 negro leaders who received training during the year. This is a large step in the right direction and we feel it will mean much to the negro Scout troops of this Council. For 1931 we recommend that cont.inued emphasis be placed on. the training of Sco~t Leaders, also that Specialization Courses in First Aid and other subjects be given whenever practical. The Council is now in position to conduct its own First Aid Courses under the au.spices of the American Red Page 19 REPORT OF TBAINING COMMITTEE (Continued) Cross inasmuch as Scoutmaster Ben Coffey of Troop 1, Scoutmaster W.

During 1930 the Cou_,.1cil dropped five troops, h10 of which were Sea Scout Ships. The troops dropped were as follows: 17 - Oakville Sanitarium 28 - St. John's Methodist Church Page 21 REPORT OF TROOP OB.G.AlTIZ.ATIOW COMMITTZZ (Continued) 35 - Group of Citizens 55 - Idlewild Presbyterian Church 58 - \Vhite Station School The reason for Troop 17 being dropped was that this troop ~as composed entirely of boys v1ho had tuberculosis and were confined to the Oa1:ville Sanitarium. Wlien the time for reregistration came arou.11d all but one of the boys had been discharged from tho Sanitarium as cured and there were no boys, therefore, available to rer.egister the troop. Some of those boys have since joined other troops in the city, which is very pleasing to us. For 1931 we recommend that as many new troops be organized as the :mxecutive Board thinks is wise in view of the financial situation. We further recommend t!i.at negro churches be given the right to organize troops whenever they can demonstrate their fitness to sponsor a troop. We arc proud of the record of the Council growth of this yea:r and we feel sure it will continue to enlarge.

A • .ANNUAL ME3TilTG DEC:3::M33R 5, 1930 I * * * * REPORT OF SCOUT EXECUTIVE It is rey- pleasw.~e to report that Chickusaw Council has had the banner year of its history. during 1930. The Council has the largest. number of troops, the largest number of Scouts, the greatest number of merit badges have been awarded, o.nd the attendance at the.two camps has far surpassed anything on record. Below are figures for the fiscal year ending December 1, 1920 as compared to December 1, 1929. December 1, 1930 70 ~roops 1,504 Scouts December 1 1 1929 57 Troops 1,238 Scouts Gain 13 Troops or 22.8% 266 Scouts or 21.5% The Statistical Bureau of the National Council issues quarterly a Local Council Index for growth and development. It is rey- privilege to report that Chickasaw Council, partially on account of the splendid growth in troops and Scouts, has the highest average among the 40 Councils in Region 5, which comprises the States of Tennessee, .Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama. Our average as shown by the four reports of the Bureau is 58.5. The nearest average to us is that of Tullahoma, Tennessee, which has 56.0. Chickasaw Council is far in advance of the larger Councils of the Region, its nearest competitors being Birmingham with 53.5, Nashville 49.5, Little Rock 48.3, and New Orleans 45.0. In arriving at the figures above quoted, the Statistical Bureau takes in consideration the net gain in troops, the net number of dropped troops, new troops, lapsed troops, net gain. in Scouts, net dropped Scouts, new Scouts, Tenderfoot Scouts, First Class Scouts, and the ratio between Tenderfoot and First Class. Scouts have shoun a marked improvement in advancement this year, as last year only 65 boys won their First Class badges as compared to 114 this year, an increase of 6o%. In 1929, 746 merit badges were awarded by the Court of Honor, whereas, this year 1,150 were a~arded, an increase of 54.2%. 1929 shows only 8 boys attaining the ran...~ of Ea~le Scout; whoroas, this year we have 12 boys who have been awarded their Eagie Badges, The camping record of the Council is excellent, as will be noted by the figui~es below: December 1 1 1930 Camp Currier, 3,564 Scout Days Kamp Kia Kima., 736 Scout Weeks Kamp Kia Kima, 269 Scouts CaIJ1P Attendance December 1, 1929 1,941 Scout Days 562 Scout Weeks 180 Scouts Gain 1,623 days or 83.6% 174 weeks or 30.9% 89 Scouts or 49.4% The large attendance at Camp Currier is due ma.inly, I believe, Page 23. REPORT OF SCOUT EXi::iCUTIVE (Continued) to the fact that a swimming pool ~w.s constructed which e;ave the boys an opportunity to swim uithout having to go off the carr:p. The pool proved a tremendous attraction. I feel sure that as soon as a dam is built and a lake formed at Camp Currier the additional attractions of boating, fishing, and swimming will double the present number 9f boy days. I At Camp Currier we now have 15 complete cabins owned by various troops and 9 cabins in course of construction, ~horeas, on the first of December lo.st year we had only 8 complete cabins nith 5 others in course of const1~uction. The Carr:p Currier Lnkc Fund was started this year by Mrs. Elizabeth B. Currier of Geneva, Switzerland. Mrs. Currier donated $300.00 to the Fund and as additional contributions are received th.ey will be added to the Fund until suf'ficient money is available to build the dam. The Council is indeed indebted to W~s. Currier for her splzndid idea and the many generous donations. At Kanrp Kia Kinn we had the pleasure of 1:w.v ing 56 boys from the St. Francis Valley Council with headquarters at Blytheville, .i'.\.rkr.msas. We are glad to have had them with us and hope they ~vill return next year • .A.t both Ca.mp Currier and Kanp ICia !Cima the attendn.nce has been by lonG odds the greatest in the history of the Cotincil. This is very encoura-:; ing, as I believe that troops who crurrp get the most out of Scouting and that they are as a uhole more permanent than troops who do not periodically eet in the great outdoors. The first negro Scout CD.mp ever held in Chiclr..asnw Council was conducted this year. It lasted but 5 days but was the beginning of v1hat should be a. permo.nent c.:trr:ping proQ~r:.::.m for ne~o Scouts. Next year I feel sure it will last at least 2 weeks. It undoubtedly helped not only the negro boys but the neg:ro men who attended. T'.ais year has also seen the greatest number of Sco.ut Leaders trained in the history of the Council. We used tho outline of the 5 Year Progressive Training Program approved by the National Council. We have had two Minimum Courses and one Approved Course for our r1hi t~ Scout Leaders and two Minimum Courses for tl1e negro Scout Leaders. The Coundl is greatly indebted to the followin~:; Scout Leadors who served in the Tri:.dning Courses: Messrs. Ross .A. Mathews and R. G. Walls, Sr., Scoutmasters; Messrs. George Klepper and L. R. Taylor, Assistant Scoutmasters; Mr. W. E. Hays, Scribe; Messrs. Ben B. Coffey, Jr., Joe Flanagan, Howard Pritchard, James Fentress, and C. C. Brown, Jr., Patrol Leaders, Messrs. Coffey and Flanagan served in a+l three of the schools for w::iite Scout Leaders. The negro training courses were conducted by J, A. Beauchan;p, Assist~~t to Mr. Stanley A. Harris, National Director of Inter-Racial Activities. I am indeed glad to report that every troop in the Council no~ is led by an efficient Scoutmaster • . Page 24. BEPORT OF SCOUT EXECUTIVE (Cont,~nued) T'nis year has seen a IrlD.rked improvement i~\ the Scout Leaders Round Table, the average attendance beinc-; about 60 Scout Load'ers. The Council is indebted to Mr. Walter Gray uho has so splendidly coope~ated throughout the year by preparint~ and se1"Vin:; without cost to the Council ~ splendid meal for the Round Table once each month. Mr. Grey does not receiv6, one cent of profit but through his interest in Scouting donates the tremendous amount of work necessary to :r:r.ake the Round Table a success. For the last 5 years Chickasaw Council has been tremendously handicapped by the lack of funds. This year our budget is $11,910.00 to cover the opsrations of 70 troops. In 1921, the Council budcet ~as $12,053.00 with only 18 troops on tho roll. The lack of ample finance retards the development of the Council, but in view of the existing financial situation throuehout the cotmtry I feel we have made splendid pro1:;ress with the money available. Chickas~w Council could not have made the splendid record it has for this year had not the Officers and the Executive Board, the Council Members, the Members of the various Committees, Merit Bad,se Counselors, Scoutmasters and Assist~nt Scout:mo.sters cooperated at all times. Many demands for time have been made on so::ie of our Scouters .that the.y could ill afford to __ gtv:e, out they have helped whenever and 'rlherever they. could and I uant to ta1~e this opportunity to ·th~n..~ them for the thought they have given, the sacrifices they have made and the real 11ork that has been done that our Council mi(~1. .. 1.t give to_our boys every op?ortunity to become better citizens through the nnnifold advantaees of Scouting. Without the help and cooporation of these gentlemen we would be far from the leading Council .in Region 5. 1, 2. 3. 4. 5. 6, 7. In planning the work of tl1e Cou:acil fo~ 1931 I recommend: \ That especial emphasis be placed on the trairting of leaders and that at least four trn.b.ing schools be conducted. That a lake be built at Camp Currier. I feel th~ building of the dar:: and the formation of a lake from it uill be the greatest stimulus we could have at caup, as it will create a greater interest o.none; the boys and also among the supporting constituency of the Council. That more boys be recrui tod in our troops and that 15 new troops be orc;anized. That we have a Merit Badge Exi~osition similar to the one held in 1928 whenever financial conditions will permit. That ~e r:Jaintain hish standards in all events involved in Scouting technique and especially in the award of merit badges. That Sea ScoutinG be encouraGed and a boat be provided for the use of our Sea Scouts. That we give the advantaJs of the Scouting program to ne&To boys whenever and i7herever troops can be or~anized with i:iroper leadership and supervision. Page 25. \ RElPOil.T OF SCOUT EXECU'I'IVE (Continued) 8. That every effort be r.:iade throu,ji educational publicity and other i-;:ieo.ns to educate the :publ~c at lar:;e and especially the heads of .churches and other institutions as to the values of Scout training. Scouting is a vital force in our community and is tremendously helpful as a supplement to the work of \our churches. With the continued S'\JlJport of our Council Members and other Scout Leaders there is no doubt but that Cl1iclmsaw Council uill continue to pro8l"ess in 1931. I earnestly ask your continued loyal cooperation in making· Scouting available to the boys in the Council .Area.

There has long been a wide-spread desire for accurate data of this kind, but particularly since the inception of the Local Council Index. The information for which the following tabulation provides will constitute the basic data for'Such studies. If 1930 Census figures for your territory are not yet available to you, they may be secured from the Statistical Bureau of the Boy Scouts of America.

There has long been a wide-spread desire for accurate data of this kind, but particularly since the inception of the Local Council Index. The information for which the following tabulation provides will constitute the basic data for'Such studies. If 1930 Census figures for your territory are not yet available to you, they may be secured from the Statistical Bureau of the Boy Scouts of America.

ANNUAL MEZTI1'1'J., DECEMB.E.TI 10, 1931 * "' * * REPORT OF ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE The Activities Committee has succeeded this year in organizing itself to uhere it could function with a marked degree of effi._ciency in that we divided the Scouting area into eight divisions.and assigned one member of the Committee to each Division. Over half of these divisions the Deputy Scout Commissioner has had charge and the Commissioner has had charge of the other four divisions~ This has worked for better cooperation and has to m.Y mind increased the efficiency of the various troops and has made it possible for the Scout office to know at all times the condition and strength of each troop in the Council and has thus enabled the Scout Executive to concentrate his efforts to building up and increasing the morale of t~oops that needed a helping hand. I am extremely pleased to report to you that every member of the Activities Committee has been very active and has given unselfishly of his time and energy toward the building up of a Scout organization that will be second to none. The Activities Committee has formed a luncheon club which meets every Friday at Lowenstein's dining room for a round. table discussion and this in itself has been a great help not only to your Commissioner but to the Executive and his Assistant and has developed a very clo.se personal relation between all of the members of this committee. The Activities Committee also promoted with a. vien of better fellowship a Golf Tournament for all Scouters which considering this was the first year of an activity of this kind has been highly successful and we hope to make this a yearly event. This year we have had some very fine Inter-Troop Rallies which terminated with the best Final Rally in the history of the Council. The finals 11ere held at the Fair Grounds uith about 2,000 people in attendance. The Jamboree held at Camp Currie1· was the largest activity ever undertaken by the Council as 825 Scouts representing 44 troops were in camp for three days. The Activities of last year were so nearly parallel to this with the exception of the above that I will not attempt to go into tnem specifically except to say that this year I believe has marked the finest year that the Scout organization of this city has ever seen and I want to take this opportunity of thanking each and every member of my committee who has been so loyal and so pain-staking. Respectfully submitted, ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE :Sy d 'l{J' a.1~ , ~/;:/ Chairman Page 1. �CHICKASAW COUNCIL, B. S. A. ANNUAL ?&JETING. DECEMBER 10, 1931 **** REPORT 0 F CAMP CURRIER COMMITTEE Your Corrnnittee is happy to report another splendid year at this, our all-yGar camp. In point of troop cabin construction, and in Scout attendance as r1ell as outside attendance, this has been our best year. \Ve have haa_ visitors from many states besides our own and they all express much admiration and interest in what is being accomplished there. The chief activity at camp this year ·\7as the Jamboree held on May 24th. There i7ere 825 Scouts in attendance and they and their parents and friends made a total of some 2,000 people. The Scouts went into camp in cabins and tents on Friday afternoon, May 23rd. The rally started early Saturday morning with cam.fl inspection. After that throughout the day one Scout event folloved another without intermission and with clock;_like precision. Saturday afternoon some troops returned home. Others elected to stay over Saturday night and returned home Sunday afternoon. Those who stayed over and many visitors from Memphis and surrounding country were inspired by a most delightful address delivered on Sunday afternoon by Dr. T. K. Young of Memphis. The tent in which Dr. Young spoke 11as loaned us by :or. J. Mack Jenkins. Rev, J. H. Shea held mass for the Catholic Scouts on Sunday morning. Your Committee feels the Jamboree should be an annual affair at Camp cw.~rier. The attendance this year and the interest shown indicate that no other place available is so nell suited for such an event. There is ample space for the running off of numerous events simultaneously, and there is adequate parking space for visitors~ cars. Lack of running water is a drauback but that 1,7as solved most satisfactorily by our Scout Executive and his assistants. The chief objective of your committee this year has been the building of a dam to impound nater for a lake to give the boys swimming, boating and fishing. This has been in contemplation since the purchase of the carrrp site some five years ago. Camp Cm~rier ts best friend, rv:rs. Elizabeth Currier, had seen ho11 vital the need 'Uas. Several years ago she sent the Council an initial gift of $100.00, to be kept apart and used for this purpose only. From time to time she had added to that fund until in the early surrmer it amounted to $700. 00. The time seemed so propitious for getting the dam built cheaply that we decided to see just ho\7 far 11e could go 'iii th the fund rJe had. Mr. Marlnrell of our Committee m:i.de a survey of the site and reported that a dam 25 feet in height would impound about 25 acres of ~ater. The cost of such a dam rms prohibitive so he ;ms requested to find out just hm1 much dam could be built for the money ue had, keeping in mind the thought that we could raise the dam higher whenever we could get additional funds for that purpose. After considerable dickering rrith contractors and dirt movers, big and little, i7e found ~1e could build. a dam 14 feet high that would impound some 12 acres for something over :1hat our fimd amounted to. So \7e decided to go al'lead with this project. It has nm1 been completed to a height of 14 feet. The valleys leading to it have been cleared of trees and debris of all.sorts. An overflow has been provided both at bottom of dam as well as 0 Page 2. �fu."""PORT OF CAMP C'tJRRIER COMMITTEE (Continue d) at top. It has been built according to S})ecifica tions prepared by our J!ln,gineer Me;nber, Mr. t!ia.rlnwll, and has been so planned that it can be added to. It is fully paid for. We offer it for your approval. Should some friend ·;iant to give us more funds ·;1e can enlarge the dam at any time to a height of 25 feet. Last year the Isaac Walton League gave us 175 Black Bass Fingerlings for our small Si7irrrming pool. This pool '.7ill nor1 become a part of the nerr lake. This summer the League gave us another lot of 125 Fingerlin gs. As soon as ti1e lake fills up 11e 1;1ill get from the "Department of Fisheries of the National Government enough Bass, Crappie, Bream and Gogle ~ye Perch to stock it completel y. In a fe'\7 years "ire \7ill have excellent fishing for the boys. In the meantime they \7ill have boating and Si7imrning. The building of troop cabins at carrrp has kept pace ~ith other developmen ts. La.st year at this time your Comrni ttee reported 15. complete troop cabins as follovIS: Troops 5, 8, 15, 16, 19, 25, 27, 29, 33, 34, 40, 41, 49, 50, and 68. This year -r.1e report 20 complete cabins, the 15 listed above and the follouing : Troops 24, 26, 32, 38, arid 69, i1hich nere built this year. 8 others are nearly complete, i.e., Troops 7, 9, 11, 13, 27, 43, 48 and 67, and logs are hauled for 2 more. As time goes on the cabins being built are better and better. By that ~e do not mean that they a~e oore costly or more elaborate . But they are more attractiv e, better built and arranged and better suited to the requireme nts of troops. We hope that every troop in Chick.a.sari Council not no~ having a cabin at Camp Currier ~ill begin plans for such a cabin. Nothing a troop committee can do uill make for better Scouting than such a cabin where the Scoutmas ter and his boys can spend r:eek-ends and holidays in comfort out in the woods. The problem of transport ation to and from camp has about solved itself. When a troop gets a cabin built on a site of its own selection it seems alilays to manage some way to get dm1n t11ere and back. We rarely have the matter discussed any more. The road to Currier is excellent . With so much activity in camp we rarely hear of poaching any more. The Scouts police it as no one else could. They protect the wild life themselves and are equally zealous to see that no outsider c~isturbs it. Lack of an adequate ·.1ater supply is still a drauback. Our ';l'ell at headquar ters is fine and the pressure tank a success. But it is still necessary that the boys carry water to the cabins for drinking and cooking. We have had tentative surveys m.de for a i;vater supply but for the present its cost is beyond our capacity to meet. Based on a survey made by the Shelby County Departmen t of Health under the direction of Dr. Graves, latrines are being built at strategic points about the camp for the convenien ce of the campers. The troops are, as far as possible, grouped in such a uay that several can build cooperati ve latrines at small cost to each. We urge that Scoutmas ters get in touch uith our Ca.op Director and help solve this problem to the end that camp ~7ill meet the strictest requireme nts of sanitatio n. We recommend as the chief objective at camp next year the building of a tight fence around the entire cai:i!p property. At present ue are uorried Page 3. �REPORT OF C.A11P CURRIER COMMITTEE (Continued) constantly by stray stock. This stock must be kept away from the lake and its draining area. Mr. i'lalter Lane S:r.ii th advises us this uill cost about $425. 00 for a fence built 'i7i th 2611 hog nire at the bottom and 2 strands of barbed ~ire above. T.here have been during the year 7,160 Scout days spent at ca:ip as cor.tpared to 3,564 last year, an increase of 3,596 days or 100.9%. There rave been 3,046 visitors as compared to 1,327 last year, an increase of 1,719 Visitors or 129%. The number of visitors is increasing all the time. We encourage them and Mr. and ~~s. ~wers I!Bke them ~elcorne. ~e keep a register · of these visitors. At Camp The collection is relics or sinilar to the donor in a Headquarters ~e are developing a museur:i. and trophy room. already of considerable interest. If ahy one has Indian objects ue uill be glad to have them and uill give credit register kept for that purpose. During the Jamboree the cornerstone of the Block Lodge was laid and dedicated to Rabbi Harcy \7. Ettelson. The lodge nas started by Senator Dean and is being built in memory of Ike Block Hhose liberal contribution made the ?urchase of Cal!!P Currier possible. It is for the purpose of furnishing a place for Scouters to rr.eet and to stay overnight. Kitchen arrangements nill be provided. We are going to need help on this from all Scouters who can handle an axe or saw. We feel ~e rrould be remiss if we did not, in the report, mention the splendid cooperation v1e have had at all times frol:l Camp Director Harry Myers. He has carried out our instructions in a spirit of good Scouting. He is endeavoring to make the camp a refuge for wild life, a place to study the trees and plants native to this section and so far as it is possible to do so he is instructing the Scouts in these things. It has been a pleasure to Hork With him. It is useless to tell you that Executive Gordon Morris has cooperated ~ith us fully at all times. He has been untiring in his efforts to carry out our plans at camp. But for his cheerful help our job would not have been the pleasant one ~e have found it. In conclusion your camp chairman wants to thank his fella~ committeemen for their excellent cooperation. They have been ready at all times to do any job assigned them. And they have done their jobs uell. Charlie McCabe has contacted the .troops in their activities. Kenneth Mark:;rell has engineored the dam. Senator Dean has seen to roads, bridges and cabins. Mr. Cox has graded the camp roads excellently, Dr. Wallace has seen to camp sanitation and kindred problems. Your chairman has assigned the work and has had little to do himself. It has been a delight to work with these gentlemen. Respectfully submitted, CAMP CURRIER COMMITTEE f) Page 4. �CHICKASAW COUNCIL, B. S. A. ANNUAL MEETING. DECEMBER 10, 1931 "' "' "' REPORT OF CIVIC ... RELATIONS COMMITTEE As in the past the Civic Relations Corrmittee can take pride in the wey the Scouts of Chickasaw Council have rallied to every demand for their services in connection with civic activity. A large portion of the activity of this Civic Relations Committee is to decide in which activities the Scouts will be permitted to take part. This is necessary in order to prevent the movement from being exploited for private or selfish motives. Many requests for service of Scouts are refused each year, and many good turns are done which uould make too long a list for this report. Among the principal services rendered are the follouing: 1. Forty troops distributed 25,000 blotters for the Shelby County Tuberculosis Society in the residential section of Memphis. Also placed p·os ters in the uindows of the dovm-town section regarding the Annual Sale of Ohristma.s Seals. 2. Eight Scouts served as pages at the Convention of the Tennessee Manufacturers Association. 3. Served as pages at meeting of the dealers of the Oakland Motor Car Company. 4. Boy Scouts Drum and Bugle Corps took part in the parade during the Cotton Carnival. 5. Acted ushers at Memorial Exercises for heroes of World War held in 01rerton Park and sponsored by the American Legion. 6. .Acted as ushers at the circus put on by the Memphis Park Commission at the Fair Grounds. 7. Distributed sixty thousand cards giving directions for the control of mosquito breeding for the Department of Health. This is the third year the Scouts of Memphis have rendered this service to the Health Department. 8. Thirty Scouts acted as pages at the Peabody Hotel during the National Convention of the National Exchange Club. Sixty-five Scouts served as ushers and messengers at the .Auditorium during 11 .Aviation Night in Dixie" which ~as sponsored by the National Exchange Club. 9.

The financial statement below shows the position. as of December 1st. At that time there were miscellaneous accounts payable of $254.94, but the Community Fund. owed Chickasaw Council a balance of $1,717.50 for November and December. The statement of the Camp Currier Lake Fund shows that although the a.8m is complete, all the expenses are paid and nothing is still due. The statement of the Improvement and Development Fund shows a decrease in receipts over recent years, but there is enough money to take care of the very necessary fence around the camp and other incidental needs.

Last year the boys slept on the ground. Exclusive of this expense the camp made a net profit of $1.21 although the boys paid only $4.00 each. · The first Court of Honor for colored boys was held at this camp with Mr. C. T.

We had one of the best camps we have ever had, due largely to the fact that we had such an excellent staff of young men.

The Mess Hall was well managed and the boys were served three well-balanced meals a day. The St. Francis Valley and Crowley Ridge Councils were invited to camp with us agai~ this year. Thirty-eight boys from these Councils attended. All Scoutmasters of Chickasaw Council were invited to spend one week in camp free of charge. Fourteen accepted and reported a good time, We believe these visits will be of great benefit in influencing them to urge the boys of their troops to attend camp next season. We spent $1,132.09 for equipment. However, $343.73 of this amount was spent in putting good composition shingle roofs on the lodges. These roofs will last for years. The sanitation and health were excellent. Regular inspections were made. to see that there w~re no breeding places for mosquitoes. There were no .serious accidents. All camp programs were carefully planned for each day and week so that every boy entering had an opportunity to ~ke part in the activities. We feel that special mention should be made of the excellent manner in which this was done, The Advancement Program was better than last year. The following awards were made: 260 Merit Badges, 148 Emblems, 2 Senior Red Cross Certificates, 6 J'linior Red Cross Certificates, and 7 Life Saving Merit Badges. 9 Scouts were advanced to First Class, 8 to Second Class, 9 to Star, 1 to Eagle, and 4 to Palms. 9 boys were taught to swim, page 15, �P..EPORT OF Yi.AMP KIA 'KIMa.

One af the finest pieces of publicity the Council has ever enjoyed the distribution by the Forest Hill tairy through its President, Mr. Raymond Skinner, of 1,500 Boy Scout Calendars, 45 x 22 inches. These calendars were placed in every school room in Mem:yhis so that the boys are constantly reminded of Scouting whenever they look for the date in school. We feel the Council is deeply indebted to Mr. Skinner for his wonderful contribution and to Prof. R. L. Jones for permission to place the calendars in the school rooms. This is the only calendar which Prof. Jones permitted to be placed in the schools. Unquestionably this will furnish throughout the year some of the best publicity nhich could be attained. i78.S In May the National Council, Boy Scouts of America, met in Memphis. This was the largest meeting of the Uational Council in some years and from reports ~hich we have received, the splendid hospitality extended by the mem. bers of Chickasaw Council served as some of the best publicity which we could have gotten.. Scout Leaders from all over the country i;vere in Memphis for this meeting and they uere deeply impressed uith the spirit of the men and boys i7ho se:rrved as their hosts. 1'b.e Council publication knoiln as "The Council Fire" has been sent regularly to all the troop leaders and Council Members. This has been a very effective publication in advising troops of proposed activities of the Council, advising the Scoutmasters of changes, etc. The negro troops have oeen kept advised by another publication of the Council knoun as 11 The Chieftain" ~hich has been carried on largely through the efforts of Mr. Bolton Smith and to Hhom we are deeply indebted for help in making this paper possible.

REPORT OF READIN G CO.MMIT TEE Your Committee on Reading reports that there has been an increased interest in the reading of better books by the Scouts of various troops and it is a pleasure to report that the number of boys seeking the Merit Badge in Reading is showing a gradual increase. One of the requirement s to pass the Reading N~rit Badge Tests is that the Scout be a subscriber to a magazine for Scouts and a strict adherence to this requirement shows that the boys have an interest in "Boys 1 Life" and "Scouting." The Cossi tt Library followed its usual custom of loaning a collection of books for use at Kamp Kia Kima during the season and the use of these books thoroughly demonstrate s the value of good books in the camp. There is a noticeable improvement in the respect the Scouts have for books and the expense resulting from damage to books used at the·camp is gradually being reduced each year. The Cossitt Library loan collection supplements the regular permanent library of Kamp Kia Kima started through the efforts of Mr. Edward M. Salomon while P1~esident of Chickasaw Council. Your Committee recommends:l. That the Reading Committee of 1932 compile a reading list of for Scout reading, this list to serve espe·cially as a basis books approved the Merit _Badge. for of reading 2. That Scoutmaster s encourage reading from such a list. That Scouts be encouraged to build permanent collections of books at both Kamp Kia Kima and Camp Currier. 3. That the Reading Committee be given supervision of the organization of the permanent libraries at these camps. 4. Respectfull y submitted, READING COMMITTEE Page 21. �CHICKASAW COUNCIL, B. _S. A. ANNUAL MEETING, DECEM:aER 10, 1931 **** REPORT OF SEA SCOUT COMMITTEE Your committee is still enthusiastic over the possibilities offered the older boys in remaining under the beneficial direction and leadership after the youthful days have passed. Sea Scouting is built for older boys. Our committee is still hopelessly drifting as a ship without a rudder for the lack of funds - no money ever having been allotted in the budget to finance our activities. As water sports and interest increase it is a mistake to pass the opportunity this branch of Scouting offers to serve. So it is urgently requested that due consideration be given to availing this committee at least $500.00 to function. The interest is so keen that the crew of the S.S.S. Bonita sponsored by the Galloway Memorial Methodist Church under the direction of Skipper c. B. Kennedy has found ~ way and has obtained a 30-f oot cutter from the Navy Department at Nia.re Island, California. This initiative and d.eterminattxm should be appreciated by the Council to the point of supporting finanqially this interest. For 1932 we recommend: 1. That at least $500.00 be provided in the Council budget for Sea Scouting. 2, That other boats at least 30 feet long be secured for the use of Sea Scouts under the direction and control of the Council and Sea Scout Committee. 3. That additional Sea Scout troops be organized wherever practical and that the Sea Scout program be m::i.de available to as many of our older Scouts as possible. Respectfully submitted.

ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 10, · 1931 **** REPORT OF TRAINING COMMITTEE We are pleased to report that the splendid work of last year 1 s Training Committee and their co-workers is evident in the marked improvement in the general leadership of Scout troops. It is our privilege to assist in the realization of some of the recommendations of the 1930 Committee in that we were able to offer a Saoutmster ts Specialization Course in First Aid to a class of 32 men, 18 of 'l'ihom received certificates, In July a Troop Camping Specialization Course was held at Camp Currier with a membership of 18 and all were awarded certificates. Both of these courses count in the Five Year Program ~lan. Immediately following the Camping Course, a Patrol Leaders Training Course was held at Camp Currier with an attendance of ten Patrol Leaders from five troops of the Council. Ue are indebted to the Scout Leaders and Council Members both National and Local, who gave their time and experience in serving as instructors and officors for these schools and training courses. Mr. Charles F. · Smith, of the National Council, conducted the Troop Camping Specialization Course at Camp Currier with MT. Ross A. M9.thews, Commissioner, as Assistant Scoutmaster. Nil'. Ben Coffey, Jr., District Commissioner, served as Patrol Leader of one Patrol, assisted by Mr. E. K. Leach, Scoutmaster of Troop 14, and Mr. R. Von Steinen, Scoutmaster of Troop 68 •. Mr. C. C. Brown, Scoutmaster of Troop 38, served as Patrol Leader of the second Patrol, assisted by Mr. P. A. Clayton, Scoutmaster of Troop 32. The First Aid School was held under the Leadership of Mr. W. Gordon Morris, Scout Executive, and Mr. Ben Coffey, Jr., District Commissioner, with the very able assistance of Dr. Robert Paine, Chairman of the Troop Committee of Troop 26. Mr. Ben Coffey, Jr., served as instructor for the Patrol Leaders Training School held at Camp Currier. The Y. M. c. A. has been very generous in their cooperation, and furnished the room in which we held our indoor schools. They ca.me through this year as always and their assistance is gratefully appreciated. While this Committee deserves no credit for the very commendable work accomplished in the following schools it does feel that such effort on the part of the Scoutmasters should be brought to the attention of the Council at large; that the Scoutmasters be applauded and their efforts wherever possible encouraged. Mr. W. J. Barfield, Scoutmaster of Troop 27, conducted a Troop First Aid School and 11 boys from the troop completed the course. Mr. J, W. Brust, Scoutmaster of Troop 21, recently opened a similar school to his troop on November 7th and this school is still in session. For 1932 we recommend that special attention be given both the Page 23, �REPORT OF TRAINING COMMITTEE (Continued) Minimum and Approved Scoutmaster's Training Course,. that another First Aid Course be offered for the benefit of the new Scoutmasters and such of the older Scoutmasters as feel they will derive good from the courses, We would also like to recommend, if suf'ficiant membership can be enrolled to justify it, a Standard Training Course for Scoutnasters, as this portion of the Five Year Program Plan has never been offered in Chickasaw Council.

They were Troops 39, 42, 43, 44, 60, 62, 63 and 66. Some of these troops are in process of reorganization and we hope to have them again in good standing in the near future. We have seven live prosp~cti:i now under able to close up in the next few mont~s. w~y that we ought to be We have found more difficulty in reregistering troops this year than ever before, as many boys have been unable to pay their registration fee of 50~. While the Council shows a net growth of only three troops this year as cor~ared to last year we feel that this is a good showing under the existing circumstances and we are not the least bit discouraged. For 1932 we recommend that we get as many new troops to be organized as foe Executive Board thinks it wise for us to do. We further recommend that the Troop Organization Comnittee, as well as members of the Executive Board, visit all of the troops as often as possible during the coming year and that more attention be given to our troops that are already organized than ever before, Respectfully submitted, TROOP ORGANIZATION COMMITTEE e-ffl1r:Chairman ~at4 Page 25. �CHICKASAW COUNCIL, B. S. A. ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 10, 1931 **** REP ORT 0 F "'S C 0 U T E XE C UT I V E It is my pleasure to report that Chickasaw Council has had the best year of its history during 1931. This is particularly true in the wonderful record of advancement as shown by the Court of Honor report. 1,780 Merit Badges were awarded as compared to 1,150 in 1930 or an increase of 54.8%, In 1929 only 746 Merit :Badges were awarded; the number of badges awarded this year is more than double that awarded in 1929. In fact, the Court this year awarded almost as many badges as were awarded in both 1929 and 1930. Last year 114 Scouts were advanced to First Class rank as compared to 217 this year 1 an increase of 90.3~. Throughout the various ranks and awards made by the Cou:;.·t of Honor, there is a marked increase with the smallest percentage of increase being 32.5%. The won&erful work of the Scouts without any stimulation from efficiency contests or other means is proof that the Scouting done t~is year is the best in the Council's history. The Council now .has 73 troops as compared to 70 last year and 1,530 boys as co1rrpared to 1,504 last year. Insofar as numerical gain is concerned not a g~eat deal of progress has been made, but I believe we have done very well considering tho fact that throughout the south practically every council shows a loss in membership as compared to last year due largely, I think, to conditions which have made it very difficult for many boys to secure their registration fee of 50¢. We have a number of troops in process of organization anQ I am confident 1932 will shown a real gain in number of troops and Scouts, Our camp program this year has been especially fine as will be noted from the figures below: Dec. 1, 1930 Camp Currier Ka.mp Kia ICima Camp Daniels 3,564 Scout Days 736 Scout Weeks 108 Scout Days Doc. 1, 1931 7,160 Scout Days - Gain 3,596 Days, 100.9% 639 Scout Weeks - Loss 97 Weeks or 10.4% 304 Scout Days - Gain 196 Days, 182.4% The remarkable growth in attendance at Camp Currier and the real use to n'hich this camp is being put by our boys is something everyone interested in Scouting can be proud of. Even though Kamp Kia Kim.a showed a loss in attendance this year, it was one of the best years we have ever had as the camp had a wonderful program and for the first time finished the season 1:7ith a profit ($23. 66). Camp Daniels for the colored Scouts showed a remark.able increase in attendance and I feel that next year th6.,s camp will be on an even better basis and uill have a greater increase over the record attendance of this y0ar. One of the biggest forward steps the Council has ever taken v1as the building of the dam at Camp Currier. For years our Scouts and Scouters have looked foruard to the building of the dam which would make boating, swimming Page 26, �Z (Continu ed) ~XECUTIV REPORT OF... SCOU~ ..-. .. \ and fishing availab le at this camp. Through the generos ity .of Mrs. JJlizabe th B. Currier of Geneva.', $\dtzerl and, it nas possible to build this dam. It is no\1 complete d and has already impounded about two acres of ~7ater. It will be a question of only a few mont~s until there should be apJroxir nately ten or tTielve acres of '\later in the la:~e. The uater no\7 in the lake has been impounded within the past t~o months. Undoubt edly Mrs. Currier 's wonderf ul gift to the boys of this Council ~ill mean the enlargem ent of the activiti es of the ca1l'p and afford pleasur e of the finest kind to our Scouts as well as the generati o'myet to come. Mrs. Currier has done many wonderf ul things for the camp but none has been of greater service to the .Council than the gift of funds for this dam. We are all indebted to her for it. At Camp Currier there are now 20 complete cabins, 5 of which were bu.ilt this year. There are 10 others in course of constru ction and Which will doubtles s be finished during 1932. I feel this is especia lly good work on the :9art of the troops when the economic situatio n is consider ed, There is no doubt that when the basin of the lake has been complet ely filled a great roo.ny more troops will build cabins ~t the camp, as the lack of swimming, boatin3 a~d fishing has been one of the ~eatest drawbac ks to Camp Currier in the past. This year the first Camp Currier Jambore e was held. It was such a wonderf ul success that it will doubtles s become an annual event. 825 boys from 44 troops were in camp during tbis Jamboree which started on Friday afternoo n and ended on Sund.B.y afternoo n. We are especia lly indebted to Mr. Noah Henline who conceive d the idea for this Jambore e and to the many firms in Memp:':1is who so generou sly donated the trucks to transpo rt the boys to carrrp. There we:i. e 105 vehicle s required to move the 825 boys. They carried out the Jambore a proi:;ram with enthusia sm and precisio n and I believe every boy who attended is looking forward to the next Jambore e. 1 C:1icf-.asaw Council was signally honored this year by the Nationa l Council of the Boy Scouts 6f America holding its Annual Meeting in Memphis on May 5th and 6th. This was one of the most outstand ing events in the history of Scouting , as it cormnemoratBd the 21st Anniver sary of the Scout Movement in Ame"-·ica. Scoiiters from all over the United States were in attendan ce and there uore 517 Sctmter s register ed as co!I!Pared to 363 Scouters who we;.·e register ed at the meeting in New York last year. We have had many letters of commendation for the wa:y w~icn our Council did its part in making this meeting a success and many letters of thanks for the courtesy and hospita lity extended . An especia lly fine complim ent was paid to the Scouts who were on duty as pages by Mr. G. Barrett Rich, Chairman of the Nationa l Committee on Badges, AWa.rds and Scout Requirem ents. Mr. Rich inspecte d our boys very carefully, praised them highly, and stated that he could not find anything wrong with their appearan ce and that they were a distinc t credit to our Council . The Scouters of Chickasaw Council certainl y did a fine job in entertai ning the delegate s to this meeting and I want to take this occasion to express to them my thanks for their wonderf ul coopera tion. Through the courtesy of Mr. Raymond Skinner , Preside nt of the Forest Hill Dairy, a Boy Scout Calenda r, 45 by 22 inches in size, has been placed in all the school rooms in Memphis. This is by long odds the finest publicity the Council has ever receive~ and we are deeply indebted to Mr. Skinner for it. Page 27. �REPORT OF SCOUT 3XECUTIVE (Continued) It is a policy of the National Council to extend the area of strong city Co"tL•cils to include the city's trado area. Through the efforts of the Regional :Jxecutive, Mr. Harold W. Lewman, Chickasaw Council's Executive Boai·d after a long and careful consideration has passed a resolution whereby it will extend the p~esent Council territory to take in 15 counties in Western Arkansas, 2 in Southeastern Missouri, and 8 in Western Tennessee, a total of 25 counties. Vihen this extension is completed it wil 1 afford the present Council the o~portunity to give leadership to Scouts throughout the trade terri. tory and ue look forward to the consW!lrr'.ation of t11is plan during 1932. Tnis year has seen a marked improvement in the Scout Leaders Round Table \1::licl1 is doing a fine piece of work in helping our Scouters. The Council is indebted to Mr. :7alter Gray who has so splendidly cooperated throughout the year by preparing and serving uithout cost to the Council the meals for the Round Table once each month. Mr. Gray donates the tremendous amount of work necessary to malte the Round Table a success and we certainly appreciate it. Our Scouts have done the largest aroo1lnt that they have ever done and I want especially to good turns they have rendered to the community as Civic Relations Committee. Training of this kind future citizens. of civic service this year call your attention to the shown by the report of the is of great benefit to our As a part of a very ambitious program our Council planned to or~an­ ize rUl·al Scout troops in the Council teri~i tory adjacent to Memghis. With t11is in mind two conmittees were ap·pointed, one for Shelby County, Tenn., Mr. L::. A, Harrold, Chair:m9.n, and one for DeSoto County, Miss., Mr. S. E. Dean, Chairman. On account of adverse economic conditions, only two troops ~ere organized by this department, Troop 72 at Bartlett in Shelby County and Troop 73 at Lake Cormorant in DeSoto County. For the above reason no detailed reports will be made by these committees. For a number of years our Council has been tremendously handicapped by the lack of sufficient funa.s. This yeo:r our budget is $10, 102. 91 to cover the ope~·ations of 73 troops. Ten years ago the budget Has $12,052.00 with only 18 troops in the Council. The lack of aJ!l9le finances retards development but in view of existing financial conditions throughout the country I feel ~e have made splendid pro~ress. Our National Officials tell me that at least $20,000.00 should be available each year for the proper operation of ~ the Council. Sea Scouting is a program for the older boys and marked progress has been made in it this year. Dr. Louis Leroy has generously taken the members of the s. S. S. Bonita on many cruises during the year and it is his fine generosity in carrying the boys on his boat on the Mississippi River that has helped to make our Sea Scouting \1hat it is today. I deeply appreciate the work Dr. Leroy nas done and the assistance he has given. A 30 foot ~hale boat has been secured from the Navy Department at the Mare Island, Calif,, Navy Yard. Tnis boat was shipped ~ithout cost of transportation from Mare Island, Calif., by steamer tbrough the Panama Canal to New Orleans and then through the courtesy of the Federal Barge Line was transported up the river to Memphis. Mr. Glen Holloway of Natchez, Miss., arranged for this transpor. tation ~hich ue all deeplY appreciate. Page 28. �REPORT OF SCOUT EXllCUTIVE (Continued) Chickasaw Council could not have made the splendid record it has for this year had not the Officers and Members of the Executive Board, the Council Members, the Membe:i:s of the various committees, Merit Badge Counselors, and Sco1,ltmasters and Assistant Scoutmaster s cooperated at all times. Many demands for time have been made on some of our Scouters that they could ill afford to give but they have helped whenever and wherever they could. I want to take this opportunity to thank them for the time tbey have given, the sacrifices they have made and the real work that has been done that our Council might give to our boys every opportunity to become better citizens through the manifold advantages of Scouting. Without the help and cooperation of these gentlemen we could not have made the splendid record as evidenced by the reports of our standing commit tees and the achievement s of the troops. I also want to thank Mr. Harold W. Lewman, Regional Executive, and Mr. J. V. Dabbs, Deputy Regional Executive, for their help during the year. In planning the work of the Council .for 1932 I recommend: 1. That especial emphasis be placed on the training of leaders of troops. 2. That plans be laid to increale the number of troops and Scouts whenever funds are available to take care of the expense. 3. That another Jamboree be held at Camp Currier. 4. That the Sea Scout program be enlarged and more ships organized. 5. That evefy troop not now having a cabin at Camp Currier be encouraged to build one~ 6. That we maintain our high standards in all events involved in Scouting technique and especially in the award of the Merit :Badges. 7. That we have another Merit Badge Exposition similar to the one held in 1928 whenever financial conditions will permit. 8. That we give the advantages of Scouting to negro boys whenever and wherever troops can be org;anized ni th proper leadership and supervision . 9. That every effort be made through additional publicity and other means to educate the public at large and especially the heads of eh1;p;'ches and other institution s as to the value of Scout training. Scouting is a vital force in our community • . lt sup-plements the ;10!'1...c of the home, of the church and of the school. It is a character building and citizenship training program and is of prime importance in times of financial stress as well as in times of prosperity. Our boys need this training and with the continued support of our Council Members and the other Scout Leaders there is no doubt but what Chickasap Council will continue to progress in 1932. I earnestly ask your continued loyal cooperation and help to make Scouting available to all boys in the Council area. Respectfull y submitted, Yf.~kvhl(~.

ANNUAL MEZTI1'1'J., DECEMB.E.TI 10, 1931 * "' * * REPORT OF ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE The Activities Committee has succeeded this year in organizing itself to uhere it could function with a marked degree of effi._ciency in that we divided the Scouting area into eight divisions.and assigned one member of the Committee to each Division. Over half of these divisions the Deputy Scout Commissioner has had charge and the Commissioner has had charge of the other four divisions~ This has worked for better cooperation and has to m.Y mind increased the efficiency of the various troops and has made it possible for the Scout office to know at all times the condition and strength of each troop in the Council and has thus enabled the Scout Executive to concentrate his efforts to building up and increasing the morale of t~oops that needed a helping hand. I am extremely pleased to report to you that every member of the Activities Committee has been very active and has given unselfishly of his time and energy toward the building up of a Scout organization that will be second to none. The Activities Committee has formed a luncheon club which meets every Friday at Lowenstein's dining room for a round. table discussion and this in itself has been a great help not only to your Commissioner but to the Executive and his Assistant and has developed a very clo.se personal relation between all of the members of this committee. The Activities Committee also promoted with a. vien of better fellowship a Golf Tournament for all Scouters which considering this was the first year of an activity of this kind has been highly successful and we hope to make this a yearly event. This year we have had some very fine Inter-Troop Rallies which terminated with the best Final Rally in the history of the Council. The finals 11ere held at the Fair Grounds uith about 2,000 people in attendance. The Jamboree held at Camp Currie1· was the largest activity ever undertaken by the Council as 825 Scouts representing 44 troops were in camp for three days. The Activities of last year were so nearly parallel to this with the exception of the above that I will not attempt to go into tnem specifically except to say that this year I believe has marked the finest year that the Scout organization of this city has ever seen and I want to take this opportunity of thanking each and every member of my committee who has been so loyal and so pain-staking. Respectfully submitted, ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE :Sy d 1~ 'l{J' a. , ~/;:/ Chairman Page 1. CHICKASAW COUNCIL, B. S. A. ANNUAL ?&JETING. DECEMBER 10, 1931 * * * * REPORT 0 F CAMP CURRIER COMMITTEE Your Corrnnittee is happy to report another splendid year at this, our all-yGar camp. In point of troop cabin construction, and in Scout attendance as r1ell as outside attendance, this has been our best year. \Ve have haa_ visitors from many states besides our own and they all express much admiration and interest in what is being accomplished there. The chief activity at camp this year ·\7as the Jamboree held on May 24th. There i7ere 825 Scouts in attendance and they and their parents and friends made a total of some 2,000 people. The Scouts went into camp in cabins and tents on Friday afternoon, May 23rd. The rally started early Saturday morning with cam.fl inspection. After that throughout the day one Scout event folloved another without intermission and with clock;_like precision. Saturday afternoon some troops returned home. Others elected to stay over Saturday night and returned home Sunday afternoon. Those who stayed over and many visitors from Memphis and surrounding country were inspired by a most delightful address delivered on Sunday afternoon by Dr. T. K. Young of Memphis. The tent in which Dr. Young spoke 11as loaned us by :or. J. Mack Jenkins. Rev, J. H. Shea held mass for the Catholic Scouts on Sunday morning. Your Committee feels the Jamboree should be an annual affair at Camp cw.~rier. The attendance this year and the interest shown indicate that no other place available is so nell suited for such an event. There is ample space for the running off of numerous events simultaneously, and there is adequate parking space for visitors~ cars. Lack of running water is a drauback but that 1,7as solved most satisfactorily by our Scout Executive and his assistants. The chief objective of your committee this year has been the building of a dam to impound nater for a lake to give the boys swimming, boating and fishing. This has been in contemplation since the purchase of the carrrp site some five years ago. Camp Cm~rier ts best friend, rv:rs. Elizabeth Currier, had seen ho11 vital the need 'Uas. Several years ago she sent the Council an initial gift of $100.00, to be kept apart and used for this purpose only. From time to time she had added to that fund until in the early surrmer it amounted to $700. 00. The time seemed so propitious for getting the dam built cheaply that we decided to see just ho\7 far 11e could go 'iii th the fund rJe had. Mr. Marlnrell of our Committee m:i.de a survey of the site and reported that a dam 25 feet in height would impound about 25 acres of ~ater. The cost of such a dam rms prohibitive so he ;ms requested to find out just hm1 much dam could be built for the money ue had, keeping in mind the thought that we could raise the dam higher whenever we could get additional funds for that purpose. After considerable dickering rrith contractors and dirt movers, big and little, i7e found ~1e could build. a dam 14 feet high that would impound some 12 acres for something over 0:1hat our fimd amounted to. So \7e decided to go al'lead with this project. It has nm1 been completed to a height of 14 feet. The valleys leading to it have been cleared of trees and debris of all.sorts. An overflow has been provided both at bottom of dam as well as Page 2. fu."""PORT OF CAMP C'tJRRIER COMMITTEE (Continued) at top. It has been built according to S})ecifications prepared by our J!ln, gineer Me;nber, Mr. t!ia.rlnwll, and has been so planned that it can be added to. It is fully paid for. We offer it for your approval. Should some friend ·;iant to give us more funds ·;1e can enlarge the dam at any time to a height of 25 feet. Last year the Isaac Walton League gave us 175 Black Bass Fingerlings for our small Si7irrrming pool. This pool '.7ill nor1 become a part of the nerr lake. This summer the League gave us another lot of 125 Fingerlings. As soon as ti1e lake fills up 11e 1;1ill get from the "Department of Fisheries of the National Government enough Bass, Crappie, Bream and Gogle ~ye Perch to stock it completely. In a fe'\7 years "ire \7ill have excellent fishing for the boys. In the meantime they \7ill have boating and Si7imrning. The building of troop cabins at carrrp has kept pace ~ith other developments. La.st year at this time your Comrni ttee reported 15. complete troop cabins as follovIS: Troops 5, 8, 15, 16, 19, 25, 27, 29, 33, 34, 40, 41, 49, 50, and 68. This year -r.1e report 20 complete cabins, the 15 listed above and the follouing: Troops 24, 26, 32, 38, arid 69, i1hich nere built this year. 8 others are nearly complete, i.e., Troops 7, 9, 11, 13, 27, 43, 48 and 67, and logs are hauled for 2 more. As time goes on the cabins being built are better and better. By that ~e do not mean that they a~e oore costly or more elaborate. But they are more attractive, better built and arranged and better suited to the requirements of troops. We hope that every troop in Chick.a.sari Council not no~ having a cabin at Camp Currier ~ill begin plans for such a cabin. Nothing a troop committee can do uill make for better Scouting than such a cabin where the Scoutmaster and his boys can spend r:eek-ends and holidays in comfort out in the woods. The problem of transportation to and from camp has about solved itself. When a troop gets a cabin built on a site of its own selection it seems alilays to manage some way to get dm1n t11ere and back. We rarely have the matter discussed any more. The road to Currier is excellent. With so much activity in camp we rarely hear of poaching any more. The Scouts police it as no one else could. They protect the wild life themselves and are equally zealous to see that no outsider c~isturbs it. Lack of an adequate ·.1ater supply is still a drauback. Our ';l'ell at headquarters is fine and the pressure tank a success. But it is still necessary that the boys carry water to the cabins for drinking and cooking. We have had tentative surveys m.de for a i;vater supply but for the present its cost is beyond our capacity to meet. Based on a survey made by the Shelby County Department of Health under the direction of Dr. Graves, latrines are being built at strategic points about the camp for the convenience of the campers. The troops are, as far as possible, grouped in such a uay that several can build cooperative latrines at small cost to each. We urge that Scoutmasters get in touch uith our Ca.op Director and help solve this problem to the end that camp ~7ill meet the strictest requirements of sanitation. We recommend as the chief objective at camp next year the building of a tight fence around the entire cai:i!p property. At present ue are uorried Page 3. REPORT OF C.A11P CURRIER COMMITTEE (Continued) constantly by stray stock. This stock must be kept away from the lake and its draining area. Mr. i'lalter Lane S:r.ii th advises us this uill cost about $425. 00 for a fence built 'i7i th 2611 hog nire at the bottom and 2 strands of barbed ~ire above. T.here have been during the year 7,160 Scout days spent at ca:ip as cor.tpared to 3,564 last year, an increase of 3,596 days or 100.9%. There rave been 3,046 visitors as compared to 1,327 last year, an increase of 1,719 Visitors or 129%. The number of visitors is increasing all the time. We encourage them and Mr. and ~~s. ~wers I!Bke them ~elcorne. ~e keep a register of these visitors. · At Camp Headquarters ~e are developing a museur:i. and trophy room. The collection is already of considerable interest. If ahy one has Indian relics or sinilar objects ue uill be glad to have them and uill give credit to the donor in a register kept for that purpose. During the Jamboree the cornerstone of the Block Lodge was laid and dedicated to Rabbi Harcy \7. Ettelson. The lodge nas started by Senator Dean and is being built in memory of Ike Block Hhose liberal contribution made the ?urchase of Cal!!P Currier possible. It is for the purpose of furnishing a place for Scouters to rr.eet and to stay overnight. Kitchen arrangements nill be provided. We are going to need help on this from all Scouters who can handle an axe or saw. We feel ~e rrould be remiss if we did not, in the report, mention the splendid cooperation v1e have had at all times frol:l Camp Director Harry Myers. He has carried out our instructions in a spirit of good Scouting. He is endeavoring to make the camp a refuge for wild life, a place to study the trees and plants native to this section and so far as it is possible to do so he is instructing the Scouts in these things. It has been a pleasure to Hork With him. It is useless to tell you that Executive Gordon Morris has cooperated ~ith us fully at all times. He has been untiring in his efforts to carry out our plans at camp. But for his cheerful help our job would not have been the pleasant one ~e have found it. In conclusion your camp chairman wants to thank his fella~ committeemen for their excellent cooperation. They have been ready at all times to do any job assigned them. And they have done their jobs uell. Charlie McCabe has contacted the . troops in their activities. Kenneth Mark:;rell has engineored the dam. Senator Dean has seen to roads, bridges and cabins. Mr. Cox has graded the camp roads excellently, Dr. Wallace has seen to camp sanitation and kindred problems. Your chairman has assigned the work and has had little to do himself. It has been a delight to work with these gentlemen. Respectfully submitted, CAMP CURRIER COMMITTEE f) Page 4. CHICKASAW COUNCIL, B. S. A. ANNUAL MEETING. DECEMBER 10, 1931 "' "' "' ... REPORT OF CIVIC RELATIONS COMMITTEE As in the past the Civic Relations Corrmittee can take pride in the wey the Scouts of Chickasaw Council have rallied to every demand for their services in connection with civic activity. A large portion of the activity of this Civic Relations Committee is to decide in which activities the Scouts will be permitted to take part. This is necessary in order to prevent the movement from being exploited for private or selfish motives. Many requests for service of Scouts are refused each year, and many good turns are done which uould make too long a list for this report. Among the principal services rendered are the follouing: 1. Forty troops distributed 25,000 blotters for the Shelby County Tuberculosis Society in the residential section of Memphis.

The Court of Honor in s 1J.bmi tting to you the above report for the year ending recember l, 1931, as compared to a year ago, is very proud of tnis record. It is by far the best year from a Merit Badge standpoint that ue nave ever had in this Council and the Scouts have done a much better ~1ob in learning these Merit Badges ;1~1ich is entirely due to the splendid work of our Scoutmasters, Assistant Scoutmasters and those who have done the examining of these Scouts to the point where the Court has been able to pass them. This outstanding uork of these men is wonderful and we cannot give r.co much praise to them. · The work that was cl.one by the Court of Honor at Kamp Kia Kima this summer also comes in for a great deal of praise. The Court of Honor nishes that all those connected with the various troops \7ould just analyze the different Merit Badges that have been passed and then figure out ho\7 much better they are going to do this next year, Uc believe that they can and ue assure them that any assistance that can be rendered by the Court of Honor we will gladly do.

The financial statement below shows the position. as of December 1st. At that time there were miscellaneous accounts payable of $254.94, but the Community Fund. owed Chickasaw Council a balance of $1,717.50 for November and December. The statement of the Camp Currier Lake Fund shows that although the a.8m is complete, all the expenses are paid and nothing is still due. The statement of the Improvement and Development Fund shows a decrease in receipts over recent years, but there is enough money to take care of the very necessary fence around the camp and other incidental needs.

ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER.10, 1931 * * * * REPORT OF REALTH AND SAFETY COMMITTEE The Health and Safety Committee is pleased to report a good year, not only insofar as the health of Scouts themselves is concerned but also as regards the activities of Scouts in helping to promote the health of the public generally. There were no serious injuries and no serious cases of illness at Camp Currier, Kamp Xia Kima or Camp Daniels. Your Committee was instrumental in havibg a genel'al sanitary survey made of Kamp Kia Kima. by a trained inspector from the Memphis Health '.pepartmenf, No serious defects were found in the.sanitation of the camp and a favorable report was made by' the inspector. Also a survey was made at Camp Currier by the Sanitary Engineer of the Health Department and a plan is being worked out to be recommended. for the loci:+~.ion and arrangement of new cabins, which will facilitate the adoption of a convenient and safe water supply and sewerage disposal system as tre camp €,TOWS. . : ' The Scouts have cooperated in safety work and health promotion activities as in,previous years. Cooperating with the Health Department, a card v;as placed in practically every home in Memphis bearing instructions on the prevention of mosquito breeding. The card also has a detachable post card addressed to the Health Depa~tment on which the Health Department can be notified by people who are troubled with mosquitoes which they cannot con. t.rol. These post cards enable the Health Department to dispatch a trained inspector immediately to the site of trouble. The cards came in all through the mos qui to season and contribut.ed muqp to th~ success of the seasons control activities •. In connection with this work the Scouts also assisted in programs . in the city schools where educational work in mosquito and malaria control r,neasures nere featured. In cooperation with the Shelby County Tuberculosis Society Scouts 4istributed throughout the city25,,.000 health blotters and 1, 100 health posters. This literature contained information relative to the prevention of tuberculosis, The Secretary of the Tuberculosis Society was warm in her praise of the .. ~ffective way in which this work was done. For 1932 we recommend: 1. That Scouts continue the good wor~ of former years. 2, That Scouts be urged to be imnru.n~~ed a,gp.inst smallpox and tYPhoid fever before going to camp each year~ untesi;i this matter has already ~een attended to. })!lge 12• ,, REPORT OF HEALTH .AND SAFETY COMMITTEE (Continued) 3.

There were 38 Scouts in attendance, which was 20 more than last year. The Council purchased 43 folding cots costi:q.g $91.38, so that every Scout had a comfortable bed. Last year the boys slept on the ground. Exclusive of this expense the camp made a net profit of $1.21 although the boys paid only $4.00 each. · The first Court of Honor for colored boys was held at this camp with Mr. C. T. McCabe serving as Chairman. Seven Scouts were advanced to First Class and five Scouts to Second Class. Mr. McCabe declared himself well pleased ~ith the intelligence and Scoutlike appearance of those comi~g before the Court. J. A. Hays, Principal of :M9.nassas High School, served ~s Camp Director with J. A. Beauchamp as assistant. C. C, Brown, Ben B. Coffey, Jr., and W. Gordon Morris served as instructors, During 1931 the following badges were awarded: 9 First Class, 16 Second Class and 44 Merit Badges. We now have 12 troops. The number which the Council has authorized is 15. We recommend that all limitations on the number of troops be withdrawn, being fully convinced that Gordon Morris and the Committee on Inter& 9.cial Activities may be trusted not to go too fast. · Respectfully submitted, INTER-RACIAL ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE page 14, CHICKASAW COUNCIL, B. S. A. ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 10, 1931 * * * * REPORT OF KAMP KIA KIMA COMMITTEE Your Camp Co~ittee wishes to submit the following report for the 1931 camp season at Kamp Kia Kirn.a.. We had one of the best camps we have ever had, due largely to the fact that we had such an excellent staff of young men. From the Chief down, every man was deeply interested in camp and did his full duty to make it a success. We did not have a$ many boys as last year. The following comparison shows the decre~~e.: Year Attendance Weekly Average Boy Weeks 1930 269 73 736 1931 232 64 639 In spite of this decrease, by conservative buying and good management on the part of the staff, we were able to show a net profit of $23.66 for the year. The Mess Hall was well managed and the boys were served three well-balanced meals a day. The St. Francis Valley and Crowley Ridge Councils were invited to camp with us agai~ this year. Thirty-eight boys from these Councils attended. All Scoutmasters of Chickasaw Council were invited to spend one week in camp free of charge. Fourteen accepted and reported a good time, We believe these visits will be of great benefit in influencing them to urge the boys of their troops to attend camp next season. We spent $1,132.09 for equipment. However, $343.73 of this amount was spent in putting good composition shingle roofs on the lodges. These roofs will last for years. The sanitation and health were excellent. Regular inspections were made. to see that there w~re no breeding places for mosquitoes. There were no .serious accidents. All camp programs were carefully planned for each day and week so that every boy entering had an opportunity to ~ke part in the activities. We feel that special mention should be made of the excellent manner in which this was done, The Advancement Program was better than last year. The following awards were made: 260 Merit Badges, 148 Emblems, 2 Senior Red Cross Certificates, 6 J'linior Red Cross Certificates, and 7 Life Saving Merit Badges. 9 Scouts were advanced to First Class, 8 to Second Class, 9 to Star, 1 to Eagle, and 4 to Palms. 9 boys were taught to swim, page 15, P..EPORT OF Yi.AMP KIA 'KIMa. COMMITfl.1E:rll (Continued) The camp library was much en,joyed by the boys, iVe owe our thanks to Mr. J. F. Myles, who made us a second donation this year, and to Cassi tt Library for sending 350 books. Your Committee owes its thanks to Dr. Wm. Johnston and Mr. Herbert Dangherty of Hardy who rendered valuable assistance to camp. Too, we think mention should be made of the faithful work of Bill Sneed, the care-taker, from year to year. For 1932 we have the following recommendations; 1. That every effort be made to increase the attencance. 2. That we have regular visiting days for ladies. 3, That we plan definitely to repair the Mess Hall aμd all screens on the lodges before camp opens. 4. Tnat the fencing be repaired to prevent stock roaming about the grounds. 5. That the Handicraft Shop be repaired and more benches installed. We submit Profit and Loss Statement from the auditors, Messrs. G. A, Watson & Company showing the disbursements for the season.

One af the finest pieces of publicity the Council has ever enjoyed i78.S the distribution by the Forest Hill tairy through its President, Mr. Raymond Skinner, of 1,500 Boy Scout Calendars, 45 x 22 inches. These calendars were placed in every school room in Mem:yhis so that the boys are constantly reminded of Scouting whenever they look for the date in school. We feel the Council is deeply indebted to Mr. Skinner for his wonderful contribution and to Prof. R. L. Jones for permission to place the calendars in the school rooms. This is the only calendar which Prof. Jones permitted to be placed in the schools. Unquestionably this will furnish throughout the year some of the best publicity nhich could be attained. In May the National Council, Boy Scouts of America, met in Memphis. This was the largest meeting of the Uational Council in some years and from reports ~hich we have received, the splendid hospitality extended by the mem- . bers of Chickasaw Council served as some of the best publicity which we could have gotten.. Scout Leaders from all over the country i;vere in Memphis for this meeting and they uere deeply impressed uith the spirit of the men and boys i7ho se:rrved as their hosts. 1'b.e Council publication knoiln as "The Council Fire" has been sent regularly to all the troop leaders and Council Members. This has been a very effective publication in advising troops of proposed activities of the Council, advising the Scoutmasters of changes, etc. The negro troops have oeen kept advised by another publication of the Council knoun as 11 The Chieftain" ~hich has been carried on largely through the efforts of Mr. Bolton Smith and to Hhom we are deeply indebted for help in making this paper possible.

REPORT OF READING CO.MMITTEE Your Committee on Reading reports that there has been an increased interest in the reading of better books by the Scouts of various troops and it is a pleasure to report that the number of boys seeking the Merit Badge in Reading is showing a gradual increase. One of the requirements to pass the Reading N~rit Badge Tests is that the Scout be a subscriber to a magazine for Scouts and a strict adherence to this requirement shows that the boys have an interest in "Boys 1 Life" and "Scouting." The Cossi tt Library followed its usual custom of loaning a collection of books for use at Kamp Kia Kima during the season and the use of these books thoroughly demonstrates the value of good books in the camp. There is a noticeable improvement in the respect the Scouts have for books and the expense resulting from damage to books used at the·camp is gradually being reduced each year. The Cossitt Library loan collection supplements the regular permanent library of Kamp Kia Kima started through the efforts of Mr. Edward M. Salomon while P1~esident of Chickasaw Council. Your Committee recommends:- l. That the Reading Committee of 1932 compile a reading list of approved books for Scout reading, this list to serve espe·cially as a basis of reading for the Merit _Badge. 2. That Scoutmasters encourage reading from such a list. 3. That Scouts be encouraged to build permanent collections of books at both Kamp Kia Kima and Camp Currier. 4. That the Reading Committee be given supervision of the organization of the permanent libraries at these camps. Respectfully submitted, READING COMMITTEE Page 21. CHICKASAW COUNCIL, B. _S. A. ANNUAL MEETING, DECEM:aER 10, 1931 * * * * REPORT OF SEA SCOUT COMMITTEE Your committee is still enthusiastic over the possibilities offered the older boys in remaining under the beneficial direction and leadership after the youthful days have passed. Sea Scouting is built for older boys. Our committee is still hopelessly drifting as a ship without a rudder for the lack of funds - no money ever having been allotted in the budget to finance our activities. As water sports and interest increase it is a mistake to pass the opportunity this branch of Scouting offers to serve. So it is urgently requested that due consideration be given to availing this committee at least $500.00 to function. The interest is so keen that the crew of the S.S.S. Bonita sponsored by the Galloway Memorial Methodist Church under the direction of Skipper c. B. Kennedy has found ~ way and has obtained a 30-f oot cutter from the Navy Department at Nia.re Island, California. This initiative and d.eterminattxm should be appreciated by the Council to the point of supporting finanqially this interest. For 1932 we recommend: 1. That at least $500.00 be provided in the Council budget for Sea Scouting. 2, That other boats at least 30 feet long be secured for the use of Sea Scouts under the direction and control of the Council and Sea Scout Committee. 3. That additional Sea Scout troops be organized wherever practical and that the Sea Scout program be m::i.de available to as many of our older Scouts as possible. Respectfully submitted. Page 22 •.

ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 10, · 1931 * * * * REPORT OF TRAINING COMMITTEE We are pleased to report that the splendid work of last year 1 s Training Committee and their co-workers is evident in the marked improvement in the general leadership of Scout troops. It is our privilege to assist in the realization of some of the recommendations of the 1930 Committee in that we were able to offer a Saoutmster ts Specialization Course in First Aid to a class of 32 men, 18 of 'l'ihom received certificates, In July a Troop Camping Specialization Course was held at Camp Currier with a membership of 18 and all were awarded certificates. Both of these courses count in the Five Year Program ~lan. Immediately following the Camping Course, a Patrol Leaders Training Course was held at Camp Currier with an attendance of ten Patrol Leaders from five troops of the Council. Ue are indebted to the Scout Leaders and Council Members both National and Local, who gave their time and experience in serving as instructors and officors for these schools and training courses. Mr. Charles F. · Smith, of the National Council, conducted the Troop Camping Specialization Course at Camp Currier with MT. Ross A. M9.thews, Commissioner, as Assistant Scoutmaster. Nil'.

Brown, Scoutmaster of Troop 38, served as Patrol Leader of the second Patrol, assisted by Mr. P. A. Clayton, Scoutmaster of Troop 32. The First Aid School was held under the Leadership of Mr. W. Gordon Morris, Scout Executive, and Mr. Ben Coffey, Jr., District Commissioner, with the very able assistance of Dr. Robert Paine, Chairman of the Troop Committee of Troop 26. Mr. Ben Coffey, Jr., served as instructor for the Patrol Leaders Training School held at Camp Currier. The Y. M. c. A. has been very generous in their cooperation, and furnished the room in which we held our indoor schools. They ca.me through this year as always and their assistance is gratefully appreciated. While this Committee deserves no credit for the very commendable work accomplished in the following schools it does feel that such effort on the part of the Scoutmasters should be brought to the attention of the Council at large; that the Scoutmasters be applauded and their efforts wherever possible encouraged. Mr. W. J. Barfield, Scoutmaster of Troop 27, conducted a Troop First Aid School and 11 boys from the troop completed the course. Mr. J, W. Brust, Scoutmaster of Troop 21, recently opened a similar school to his troop on November 7th and this school is still in session. For 1932 we recommend that special attention be given both the Page 23, REPORT OF TRAINING COMMITTEE (Continued) Minimum and Approved Scoutmaster's Training Course,. that another First Aid Course be offered for the benefit of the new Scoutmasters and such of the older Scoutmasters as feel they will derive good from the courses, We would also like to recommend, if suf'ficiant membership can be enrolled to justify it, a Standard Training Course for Scoutnasters, as this portion of the Five Year Program Plan has never been offered in Chickasaw Council. Respectfully submitted, TRAINING COMMITTEE Page 24, CHICKASAfv COUNCIL, B. S. A. li.IDTUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 10, 1931 * * * * ~EP0:1T OF T :;1 0 0 P 0 a G A N I Z A T I 0 N COMMITTEE Your Committee reports that during the year ending Deeember 1, 1931, there were 7 troops of white Scouts and 4 troops of negro Scouts organized. The Council ~ow has 61 troops of white Scouts and 12 troops of negro Scouts, a total of 73 troops.· ~e 7 white troopS organized this year and their sponsors are as follows: from 66. have Troop 18 - A Group of Ci tiz.ens Troop 22 - Lions Club ·Troop 24 - Wes tmin$ ter Presbyterian Church Troop 28 - St, John's Methodist Church '!Toop 46 - A Group of Citizens Troop 72 - Bartlett Baptist Church Troop 73 - Lake Cormorant Consolidated School The 4 negro troops and.their sponsors are as follows: ,. Tl"'oop 108 - Manassas High School Troop 109 - Congregational Church Troop 110 - Greater Gilfield Baptist Church Troop 111 - St. Jude Baptist Church Eight troops failed to reJ~egister this year so they were dropped the Council's record. They were Troops 39, 42, 43, 44, 60, 62, 63 and Some of these troops are in process of reorganization and we hope to them again in good standing in the near future. We have seven live prosp~cti:i now under w~y that we ought to be able to close up in the next few mont~s. We have found more difficulty in reregistering troops this year than ever before, as many boys have been unable to pay their registration fee of 50~. While the Council shows a net growth of only three troops this year as cor~ared to last year we feel that this is a good showing under the existing circumstances and we are not the least bit discouraged. For 1932 we recommend that we get as many new troops to be organized as foe Executive Board thinks it wise for us to do. We further recommend that the Troop Organization Comnittee, as well as members of the Executive Board, visit all of the troops as often as possible during the coming year and that more attention be given to our troops that are already organized than ever before, Respectfully submitted, TROOP ORGANIZATION COMMITTEE e-ffl1r: ~ at4 Chairman Page 25. CHICKASAW COUNCIL, B. S. A. ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 10, 1931 * * * * REP ORT 0 F "'S C 0 U T E X E C U T I V E It is my pleasure to report that Chickasaw Council has had the best year of its history during 1931. This is particularly true in the wonderful record of advancement as shown by the Court of Honor report. 1,780 Merit Badges were awarded as compared to 1,150 in 1930 or an increase of 54.8%, In 1929 only 746 Merit :Badges were awarded; the number of badges awarded this year is more than double that awarded in 1929. In fact, the Court this year awarded almost as many badges as were awarded in both 1929 and 1930. Last year 114 Scouts were advanced to First Class rank as compared to 217 this year 1 an increase of 90.3~. Throughout the various ranks and awards made by the Cou:;.·t of Honor, there is a marked increase with the smallest percentage of increase being 32.5%. The won&erful work of the Scouts without any stimulation from efficiency contests or other means is proof that the Scouting done t~is year is the best in the Council's history. The Council now .has 73 troops as compared to 70 last year and 1,530 boys as co1rrpared to 1,504 last year. Insofar as numerical gain is concerned not a g~eat deal of progress has been made, but I believe we have done very well considering tho fact that throughout the south practically every council shows a loss in membership as compared to last year due largely, I think, to conditions which have made it very difficult for many boys to secure their registration fee of 50¢. We have a number of troops in process of organization anQ I am confident 1932 will shown a real gain in number of troops and Scouts, Our camp program this year has been especially fine as will be noted from the figures below: Camp Currier Ka.mp Kia ICima Camp Daniels Dec. 1, 1930 3,564 Scout Days 736 Scout Weeks 108 Scout Days Doc. 1, 1931 7,160 Scout Days - Gain 3,596 Days, 100.9% 639 Scout Weeks - Loss 97 Weeks or 10.4% 304 Scout Days - Gain 196 Days, 182.4% The remarkable growth in attendance at Camp Currier and the real use to n'hich this camp is being put by our boys is something everyone interested in Scouting can be proud of. Even though Kamp Kia Kim.a showed a loss in attendance this year, it was one of the best years we have ever had as the camp had a wonderful program and for the first time finished the season 1:7ith a profit ($23. 66). Camp Daniels for the colored Scouts showed a remark.able increase in attendance and I feel that next year th6.,s camp will be on an even better basis and uill have a greater increase over the record attendance of this y0ar. One of the biggest forward steps the Council has ever taken v1as the building of the dam at Camp Currier. For years our Scouts and Scouters have looked foruard to the building of the dam which would make boating, swimming Page 26, REPORT OF SCOU~ ~XECUTIVZ (Continued) ... .. ..-. \ and fishing available at this camp. Through the generosity .of Mrs. JJlizabeth B. Currier of Geneva.', $\dtzerland, it nas possible to build this dam. It is no\1 completed and has already impounded about two acres of ~7ater. It will be a question of only a few mont~s until there should be apJroxirnately ten or tTielve acres of '\later in the la:~e. The uater no\7 in the lake has been impounded within the past t~o months. Undoubtedly Mrs. Currier's wonderful gift to the boys of this Council ~ill mean the enlargement of the activities of the ca1l'p and afford pleasure of the finest kind to our Scouts as well as the generatio'myet to come. Mrs. Currier has done many wonderful things for the camp but none has been of greater service to the .Council than the gift of funds for this dam. We are all indebted to her for it. At Camp Currier there are now 20 complete cabins, 5 of which were bu.ilt this year. There are 10 others in course of construction and Which will doubtless be finished during 1932. I feel this is especially good work on the :9art of the troops when the economic situation is considered, There is no doubt that when the basin of the lake has been completely filled a great roo.ny more troops will build cabins ~t the camp, as the lack of swimming, boatin3 a~d fishing has been one of the ~eatest drawbacks to Camp Currier in the past. This year the first Camp Currier Jamboree was held. It was such a wonderful success that it will doubtless become an annual event. 825 boys from 44 troops were in camp during tbis Jamboree which started on Friday afternoon and ended on Sund.B.y afternoon. We are especially indebted to Mr. Noah Henline who conceived the idea for this Jamboree and to the many firms in Memp:':1is who so generously donated the trucks to transport the boys to carrrp. There we:i.1 e 105 vehicles required to move the 825 boys. They carried out the Jamborea proi:;ram with enthusiasm and precision and I believe every boy who attended is looking forward to the next Jamboree. C:1icf-.asaw Council was signally honored this year by the National Council of the Boy Scouts 6f America holding its Annual Meeting in Memphis on May 5th and 6th. This was one of the most outstanding events in the history of Scouting, as it cormnemoratBd the 21st Anniversary of the Scout Movement in Ame"-·ica. Scoiiters from all over the United States were in attendance and there uore 517 Sctmters registered as co!I!Pared to 363 Scouters who we;.·e registered at the meeting in New York last year. We have had many letters of commendation for the wa:y w~icn our Council did its part in making this meeting a success and many letters of thanks for the courtesy and hospitality extended. An especially fine compliment was paid to the Scouts who were on duty as pages by Mr. G. Barrett Rich, Chairman of the National Committee on Badges, AWa.rds and Scout Requirements. Mr. Rich inspected our boys very carefully, praised them highly, and stated that he could not find anything wrong with their appearance and that they were a distinct credit to our Council. The Scouters of Chickasaw Council certainly did a fine job in entertaining the delegates to this meeting and I want to take this occasion to express to them my thanks for their wonderful cooperation. Through the courtesy of Mr. Raymond Skinner, President of the Forest Hill Dairy, a Boy Scout Calendar, 45 by 22 inches in size, has been placed in all the school rooms in Memphis. This is by long odds the finest publicity the Council has ever receive~ and we are deeply indebted to Mr. Skinner for it. Page 27. REPORT OF SCOUT 3XECUTIVE (Continued) It is a policy of the National Council to extend the area of strong city Co"tL•cils to include the city's trado area. Through the efforts of the Regional :Jxecutive, Mr. Harold W. Lewman, Chickasaw Council's Executive Boai·d after a long and careful consideration has passed a resolution whereby it will extend the p~esent Council territory to take in 15 counties in Western Arkansas, 2 in Southeastern Missouri, and 8 in Western Tennessee, a total of 25 counties. Vihen this extension is completed it wil 1 afford the present Council the o~portunity to give leadership to Scouts throughout the trade terri- . tory and ue look forward to the consW!lrr'.ation of t11is plan during 1932. Tnis year has seen a marked improvement in the Scout Leaders Round Table \1::licl1 is doing a fine piece of work in helping our Scouters. The Council is indebted to Mr. :7alter Gray who has so splendidly cooperated throughout the year by preparing and serving uithout cost to the Council the meals for the Round Table once each month. Mr. Gray donates the tremendous amount of work necessary to malte the Round Table a success and we certainly appreciate it. Our Scouts have done the largest aroo1lnt of civic service this year that they have ever done and I want especially to call your attention to the good turns they have rendered to the community as shown by the report of the Civic Relations Committee. Training of this kind is of great benefit to our future citizens. As a part of a very ambitious program our Council planned to or~anize rUl·al Scout troops in the Council teri~i tory adjacent to Memghis. With t11is in mind two conmittees were ap·pointed, one for Shelby County, Tenn., Mr. L::. A, Harrold, Chair:m9.n, and one for DeSoto County, Miss., Mr. S. E. Dean, Chairman. On account of adverse economic conditions, only two troops ~ere organized by this department, Troop 72 at Bartlett in Shelby County and Troop 73 at Lake Cormorant in DeSoto County. For the above reason no detailed reports will be made by these committees. For a number of years our Council has been tremendously handicapped by the lack of sufficient funa.s. This yeo:r our budget is $10, 102. 91 to cover the ope~·ations of 73 troops. Ten years ago the budget Has $12,052.00 with only 18 troops in the Council. The lack of aJ!l9le finances retards development but in view of existing financial conditions throughout the country I feel ~e have made splendid pro~ress. Our National Officials tell me that at least $20,000.00 should be available each year for the proper operation of the Council. ~ Sea Scouting is a program for the older boys and marked progress has been made in it this year. Dr. Louis Leroy has generously taken the members of the s. S. S. Bonita on many cruises during the year and it is his fine generosity in carrying the boys on his boat on the Mississippi River that has helped to make our Sea Scouting \1hat it is today. I deeply appreciate the work Dr. Leroy nas done and the assistance he has given. A 30 foot ~hale boat has been secured from the Navy Department at the Mare Island, Calif,, Navy Yard. Tnis boat was shipped ~ithout cost of transportation from Mare Island, Calif., by steamer tbrough the Panama Canal to New Orleans and then through the courtesy of the Federal Barge Line was transported up the river to Memphis. Mr. Glen Holloway of Natchez, Miss., arranged for this transpor- . tation ~hich ue all deeplY appreciate. Page 28. REPORT OF SCOUT EXllCUTIVE (Continued) Chickasaw Council could not have made the splendid record it has for this year had not the Officers and Members of the Executive Board, the Council Members, the Membe:i:s of the various committees, Merit Badge Counselors, and Sco1,ltmasters and Assistant Scoutmasters cooperated at all times. Many demands for time have been made on some of our Scouters that they could ill afford to give but they have helped whenever and wherever they could. I want to take this opportunity to thank them for the time tbey have given, the sacrifices they have made and the real work that has been done that our Council might give to our boys every opportunity to become better citizens through the manifold advantages of Scouting. Without the help and cooperation of these gentlemen we could not have made the splendid record as evidenced by the reports of our standing commit tees and the achievements of the troops. I also want to thank Mr. Harold W. Lewman, Regional Executive, and Mr. J. V. Dabbs, Deputy Regional Executive, for their help during the year. In planning the work of the Council .for 1932 I recommend: 1. That especial emphasis be placed on the training of leaders of troops. 2. That plans be laid to increale the number of troops and Scouts whenever funds are available to take care of the expense. 3. That another Jamboree be held at Camp Currier. 4. That the Sea Scout program be enlarged and more ships organized. 5. That evefy troop not now having a cabin at Camp Currier be encouraged to build one~ 6. That we maintain our high standards in all events involved in Scouting technique and especially in the award of the Merit :Badges. 7. That we have another Merit Badge Exposition similar to the one held in 1928 whenever financial conditions will permit. 8. That we give the advantages of Scouting to negro boys whenever and wherever troops can be org;anized ni th proper leadership and supervision. 9. That every effort be made through additional publicity and other means to educate the public at large and especially the heads of eh1;p;'ches and other institutions as to the value of Scout training. Scouting is a vital force in our community •. lt sup-plements the ;10!'1...c of the home, of the church and of the school. It is a character building and citizenship training program and is of prime importance in times of financial stress as well as in times of prosperity. Our boys need this training and with the continued support of our Council Members and the other Scout Leaders there is no doubt but what Chickasap Council will continue to progress in 1932. I earnestly ask your continued loyal cooperation and help to make Scouting available to all boys in the Council area. Respectfully submitted, Yf.~kvhl(~.

All communities under 10,000 population are classified as Rural in harmony with the practice of the Institute of Social and Religious Research. · Annual Reports from each Council on the distribution of its Scouts according to the distribution of its population fs necessary in order that it may be kept under its proper classification and that a correct coefficient of adjustment may be calculated for it. These data are also important for determining effects of the Council's service to its "field" as shown by changes in Troop and Scout membership in proportion to the distribution of its population. These data are of fundamental value to the Council checking its own results and in planning its program of work and its budget. Towns 2,500 to 10,000 Villages Under 2,500 Open Country Total Scout No. Populat'n Units Scouts Income Total Scout No. Populat'n Units Scouts Income Scout Populat'n Units Scouts Income Cities 10,000 Population and Over Population of Each Name /l>~~_(l.~<) :1 \J _, ...; Q./'\"'•'V '-' " / Scout Units --- J.s3131: ?otf J Scouts Income l '-/ 1'j_ ~ -- --- 13"'<-J...rX -- ---- --31,, :is \J. ~ 9 9 I *Negroes Mexicans lridians Chinese Japanese Total Non-White '.

In the next two groups "Towns 2,500 to 10,000" and "Villages Under 2,500," simply indicate the number of such towns in your territory, their combined population· and the other requested information for the group as a whole. In the last group, "Open Country," include all of the remainder of your territory not covered in the three previous groups. Scout Units should include Troops, Farm or Home Patrols, Lone Scout Tribes, and Sea Scout Ships. Scouts includes all boys enrolled in the Scout Units just mentioned and all Lone Scouts. Income refers to the amount contributed to the Council operating budget by the particular city or group of communities as the Ca1le may be. The income data indicating the distribution of the sources of your operating income will make possible a study of Council financing, which should 'prove exceedingly helpful to all Councils. RACE DISTRIBUTION *Negroes Mexicans Indians Chinese Japanese Total Non-White A large factor in many Council areas is that of race. We desire to take this into consideration in calculating "densities" wherever it is of sufficient weight in the judgment of the Council to affect the results of its work. If the proportion of Negroes, Mexicans, Indians, Chinese or Japanese in your territory is a handicap to the extension of Scouting, enter the number of the race involved in its proper place on the Table above. *DO NOT ENTER ANY RACE FIGURES IF YOU DO NOT CONSIDER THEM A HANDICAP TO S.COUTING IN YOUR TERRITORY.

All communities under 10,000 population are classified as Rural in harmony with the practice of the Institute of Social and Religious Research. · Annual Reports from each Council on the distribution of its Scouts according to the distribution of its population fs necessary in order that it may be kept under its proper classification and that a correct coefficient of adjustment may be calculated for it. These data are also important for determining effects of the Council's service to its "field" as shown by changes in Troop and Scout membership in proportion to the distribution of its population. These data are of fundamental value to the Council checking its own results and in planning its program of work and its budget.

In the last group, "Open Country," include all of the remainder of your territory not I covered in the three previous groups. Scout Units should include Troops, Farm or Home Patrols, Lone Scout Tribes, and Sea Scout Ships. Scouts includes all boys enrolled in the Scout Units just mentioned and all Lone Scouts. Income refers to the amount contributed to the Council operating budget by the particular city or group of communities as the Ca1le may be. The income data indicating the distribution of the sources of your operating income will make possible a study of Council financing, which should 'prove exceedingly helpful to all Councils. RACE DISTRIBUTION A large factor in many Council areas is that of race. We desire to take this into consideration in calculating "densities" wherever it is of sufficient weight in the judgment of the Council to affect the results of its work. *Negroes If the proportion of Negroes, Mexicans, Indians, Chinese or Japanese in your territory is a Mexicans handicap to the extension of Scouting, enter the number of the race involved in its proper place Indians on the Table above.

This year, as for the past two·, the Council is conducting a series of Inter-Troop Rallies to select from the troops of the city the best rally troop. At this rally last year, Troop 1 was the winner in a very heated contest with Troops 3, 13, 19, 26, 27, 37, and 38. The Annual Jamboree at Camp Currier held in May was probably the most successful activity the Council ever had, 973 Scouts taking part and well over a thousand adults attending. This Jamboree started under the most adverse conditions, it being a rainy cold day t:ie first day of the Jamboree, and the troops are to be especially commended for the efficient and workmanlike ID3.nner in which they erected their camps and handled themselves. The Activities Comrni ttee has continued its luncheon club which meets every Friday at Lo11enstein's for a round table discussion and this has proven one of the most worth'.7hile projects the committee has ever attempted. Making this, my final reuort as Commissioner, I desire to thank those men rrho have served on this ;o::mi ttee with me for t!J.eir whole-hearted and unselfish cooperation, they having given unselfishly of their time toward the promotion of better Scouting and I could ma.ke no better recommendation to the new Conmissioner than that he appoint these same men to serve with him on his cowmissioners staff. Respectfully submitted, ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE :By ._a,z~~~ Chairrrlan Page 1. �CHICKASAW COTJNCIL. B. s. A• .ANNUAL MEETING, DECEM3.ER 15, 1932 ** ** REPORT 0 F CAMP CURRIER C 0 MM I T T E E We are pleased to re:9ort that for the year ending December 1, 1932, has had the most successful yeai· in its history. During this Currier Camp 9, 18'7 Scout days s-,)ent at caffi9 as comuared to 7, 160 days in uere foere year of 2,027 or 28.31. Also we had the pleasure of having increase an 1931, to 3,046 in 1931, an increase of 282 visitors or compared 3,328 visitors as in telling of the sustained interest Scouts volumes These figures speak camp. and Scouters have in our 9%. Mrs. Elizabeth B. Currier has donated $200.00 to the camp this year which money is to be kept in trust until such time as sufficient funds are available to raise the height of the dam. It is due to Mrs. Currier's generosity that we have the dam on the carno. The dam i1as built in 1931 at a cost of ap:siroximately $700. 00 and is no;7 a height of 14 feet. Mrs. Currier plans to raise the dam to a height of 25 feet \7hich wi 11 impound about 25 acres of ':1ater instead of ap-proximately 10 acres which we no\7 have. We are greatl3r indebted to Mrs. Currier for the \7onderful things she has done to make the camp such a delightful ~lace for our boys to enjoy. The Jamboree held April 29th, 30th and M9.,y ls t '.7aS the largest and most successful we have ever had. There "mre 973 Scouts in camp for this event and doubtless many more ·.10uld have come but for the fact that it rained practically the entire first day of the Jamboree. In spite of difficulties caused by the weather the Scouts '9i tched their tents or opened up their cabins and made themselves comfortable 'Ji th the finest display of Scouting technique' we have ever seen. We believe t~is Jamboree should be an annual event. In spite of the present financial depression cabin building has ma.de splendid progress during t:1is year. Last year there were 20 troops nho had completed cabins on the caffi9, t~ese being Troops No. 5, 8 1 15, 16, 19, 24, 25, 26, 29, 32, 33, 34, 38, 40, 41, 49, 50, 67, 68, and 69. During t~'l:i.s fiscal year ue are pleased to state that six more cabins have been finished by the follo'.-:ing troops: Nos. 7, 11, 13, 27, 37, and 48. Only four cabins remain unfinished and the fifth has just been begun. Troops 3 and 14 have practically completed their cabins but their finishing touches were not put on in ti~e to be included as completed cabins in this report. We are very proud of the work the troops have done in cabin building this year in spite of adverse conditions. Latrines after the plan of the Shelby County Departme~t of Health have "been built to accommodate the following troops: Nos. 5, 8,. 117 13, 16~ 19, 24, 25, 26, 27, 29, 32, 34, 37, 38, 40, 41, 48, 49, 50, 68, and 69. With all the activity and increased attendance at ca.nip there has been a singular freedom from accident and illness. Thousands of s;7irrming hours resulted in no mishaps, noboC.y needing assistance except two nho failed in passing tests and were helped to shore by assistant life guards. This Page 2. �REPO::CT OF CA~.1P CURRIE''- COWHTT:SZ (Continued) record '.1as largely due to ~1reventive :::easuros. The only injury ·.1orth recording suffered by any Scout at Camp Currier ims ca.used by a Scout falling out of a tree and breaking his nrrr, this 1:;.fter he had been re:rpea tedly r:arned to stay out of the tall trees. E'lis year has ·;ti tnessed the co::iplete es t<.:.blishment of t1.1e lake so that -.-1e feel it is safe from destruction by hi'.¢1 ·.mter. Several times during the summer the lake level '.·1as r.dsed above the norrrol outlet but the surplus water ··.m.s easily hnndled \7ithout resortin;g to the or:1ergency pipe under the dam. The dam is noi7 in splendid condition a!ld is completely covered rli th Bermuda grass 11hic~1 protects it in case of overflo".7. This grass ·.ms donated to the en.mp by 111!'. E. A. Smith of the Camp Currier Cammi ttco. J.1.nother "9leasing fact is tl1at the beautiful clearness of the water has been maintained even follo·:Ting the heaviest rains. This d-:mbtless is because almost none of the drainage basin is cultivated and it ·.1i 11 continue to be in this condition because this area is ormed and controlled b;i• us • .A splendid start has been made in stocking the lake ·,-,i th game fish this yenr. The first consignment of fish put into the lake ;ms 300 rainbo11 trout from the Tonnossoe State Hatchery near N.'.lshvi lle follor1ing '.7hich about a thousand black bass fin,gerlings ·.wre donated to the camp by the Izaac 1.70.lton League of !1iem:9his from the Rainbo'.-: Ln.kc at Overton park; after i7hich a!r'._)roxirrntcly 3, 600 perch of several species »iere obtained from the borro'.7 pi ts along the Mississippi levee by i;>ermission of t:-ie Mississip"?i Game and Fish Commis• sion and ·out into the lake. All of tl18se fish Here put into the ·.1nter in a very s:nort space of time, About t\70 ·;reeks after the perch ·.-rcre put in a thousand bream from the United States Fish Hatchery at rr'u:pclo ·.:ere put into the lake togefoer i7ith 40 black bass fir:.:a:e:i:-lings, the gift of Prof. Evern Jones of Hernando, Mississippi. It is contemplated that more fish ·aill be added from time to time and that the lake •:rill aL;:iys be completely stocked ·17ith fish. One of the principal and most im;iortant improvements rm.de at the co.mp durin2; the past year 0,1as a nen fence made of barbed r;ire and hog \1ire all around the reservation. This iffi?rovoment was rnade by funds raised by Nir. Walter Lane Smith, Chairnnn of the Councills Finance Committee. The fence has greatly hel~od inasmuch as it keeps all stock off the camp and makes it possi0le to keep the ~round in a much more sanitary condition as r1e 11 as keeping poachers and dogs off the property. Another excellent -project this year 110.s the planting of native trees and ornamental shrubs according to the plans ilrn\7n by Mr. :rave Renfrm1 of the Memp:1is Pnrk Commission i7i th a vier1 to rounding out the beauty of the ca;T!P in a way that '.Jill harmonize \nth the natural 'iioods that already covers most of the pro·perty. Completion of this project could not be expected in one year but due to the generosity of Mrs,, M. M. Betts of the Mem1):his Art Academy a large number of al thea bushes -..ere planted on the drive leading from the entrance to the headquarters. Other don:..itions of various shrubs have also been received and planted from various friends of the camp. In planning for Camp Currier for 1933 we recommend t..11.e follo,-:-ing: 1. That t:'le principal camp roads be covered ;1i th gravel so that Page 3. �REPORT OF CAMP CURRIE~t COM1V.ITTEE (Continued) all cabins may be reached in 2. available ~et ~eather. That the camp water supply be enlarged so that the camp. ~7ater throug.~out 3. The ceiling of t~e u~stairs 11ill be rooms of tn0 Ben S.

It's a big imoroverrent over the last year from a Merit Badge standpoint. Some of the Merit Badges that the Scouts have taken show a little decrease but in the wbole on the ones that have a 'Jig bearing on Scouting, we feel that they have done a very, very eood job and in the doing of this good job we would want to express our very sincere tharJ{s to the splendid work which has been done by ScoutIIB.ster s, Asst. Scoutmaster s and the many Scouters who have done the examining of the Scouts before they reach the Court of Honor for final passage, and we would want to lay great stress on this outstanding wor~ that these splendid men have done on the Merit Badge work. We would also want to -9raise the work which was done this last summer at Kamp Kia Kima, for it was a splendid work and the chairman particularl y wants to thank the men who have been so active on the Court of Honor this past year, Wit~out them we could not have functioned. That you might know how much improved our Merit Badge work has been, the Chairman would just like to say that a few years ago it was a very easy matter for one Court to examine the boys in a very short tirre each Court of Honor meeting. In the past year it has been necessary practically ever-~ Court of Honor meeting to hold three courts to take care of the boys. You can appreciate the work that these men have been doin~ because our Merit Badge examination s run from 80 to 100 each night. There are a few Merit Badges that I would like to call your attention to on uhich our boys have nade a splendid record this year and very important Merit Badges they are: Bird Study, Carpentry, Civics, Cookin;g, First Aid, Forestry, Handicraft, Life Saving, Pioneering, S\1imming. There is one Merit Badge that our Scouts have inrproved on a little but I hope the next year that foey will sho'7 a very marked improvement and that is the Merit Badge Safety, a thing that every citizen needs to give a little thou,ght to every day from the reports ne see in t:.1e pa."?er on the loss of life, and the Court of Honor also rrishes that all those ~ho are connected ~ith various troops uill give serious analysis to these Merit Badges and let's next year shou even a better record than we have made this year, and we would ~ant you to knoi1 that \7C stand ready at all time> to assist you in any way that qe can.

DECEMBER 15, 1932 **** REPORT 0 F CUBBIU G COMMIT TEE On recommenda tion of the Executive Board of the Council a Cub Charter rras a:pplied for and received from National Headquarter s in March, 1932. Earlier in the year one group o!: about 40 boys - ages 10 to 12 had organized themselves into what t~ey called a pack and were meeting Friday nights without any fixed pro{St"am or authorized leaders. This group \18.S reorganized , supplied i:1itn Cub Handbooks, a Cubmaster, three First Class Scouts as Den Leaders, and a Pack Cormnittee according to the plan of the National Council. This group of leade~s later attended a special training course under the direction of Dr. H. w. Hurt from National Headquarter s and the or~anization is now knoVTn as Pack ffel, sponsored by the Idlenild Presbyterian Church. The Cub Corrmittee has had considerabl e difficulty in the proper reorfP,nizat ion of this one group which was started before trained leadership was available or the program carefully studied. We recomnend that any church, or other s~onsoring organizatio n, wishing to organize a Pack, first apply to Scout Headquarter s, confer with the Cub Comnittee, and have the pro6I'8.Jll well in mind before starting. The program is entirely different from Scouting; much of it is in the :pioneer or n try out" stage. Therefore, we believe the Cub Movement, altho~gh eventually a wonderful aid to Scouting and an actual necessity in dev~loping more and better Scouts, should be built up gradually and ~ith great care.

DEC1JMBZrt 15, 1932 * • * "' REPORT 0 F INT1iR-R.ACIA L C 0 MM I T T E E We regret to report that Scouting among colored boys has been at a low ebb during the yea:r ending December 1. 1932. On December 1st of last year we had 12 troops of colored boys and 161 Scouts. This year we have but 8 troops and 105 Scouts, a net loss for the year of 4 troo~s and 56 Scouts. This is a serious loss to the Council and "ile earnestly recommend that continuous endeavors be ma.de to stem the loss of Scouts and troops. We do not like to rna~e comparisons between white and negro troops but we think it well for all Scouters to kno« that only 5 ~hite troops were dropped during the year from the total of 67 white troops on the Council's rolls, a loss of 7.4% as comnared to the loss of 33.3~ among the colored troops. Ue fullyrealize that economic conditions havo a great deal to do uith the failure of negro troops and Scouts to reregister but at the same time we believe a sustained effort on the uart of the negro leaders and the Council can do much to1ra.rd koeping these b~ys in Scouting. We believe Scouting among colored boys was never needed as badly as at the present time \7he~ we are passing tDrough ~ financial depression which has severely affected our unemployment sit'Uation. With approximately 36% of the population of Shelby County being negroes there is a. vast field for Scouting to do a tremendous amount of good and ~e have the opportunity to do it. Ue strongly recommend that ne~ troops be organized just as rapidly as competent leadership can be found and trained and financial conditions wilI permit. Below is a comparison of the ITork done by colored Scouts during 1932 as compared to 1931: 1932 1931 Second Class Badr:;es Awarded First Class Badges Aiicll'ded Merit Bads~s Awarded Star Badges Awarded 16 9 44 0 11 8 52 3 There ·.1ere 8 Cowts of Honor beld for colored "l:loys during the year. One of the ~rincipal reasons for t~e loss of colored Scouts is their failure to advance beyond the Tenderfoot Rank a.~d we urge that emphasis be placed on advancement during 1933. \7e also recornme:1.d that more stress be placed on camping and other out-door activities durir..g the coming year. The third annual surrmer ca"ttp, k:J.o\7Il as Camp Daniels, was conducted from Au,~u.st 22nd to August 29th of tbis year under the direction of J. A.

We recommend this :9olicy be continued next year. During the past season for the first time we had a party of Scouts and Scouters to repair canoes at the end of camo. Several canoes were recanvased and nine canoes in all were put in condition to t~rn the water next spring. 1.le believe t:,is is a good policy inasmucn as it allows the paint to dry during the winter months and we believe uill result in longer wear in the canoes. For 1933 we recommend the following: 1. That every effort be made to secure a larger attendance of 2. That the mess hall be rescrecned. 3. That a nen double 4.

It is a pleasure to re-9ort that the number of b_oys awarded the Merit Badge in Reading has sho~n a slight increase this year over last. One of the requirements to pass the Reading Merit Badge is that a Scout be a subscriber to a magazine for Scouts and a strict adherence to this requirement shows that. the boys have a keen interest in "Eoys 1 Life:ft. T'4e Cossitt Library followed its usual eustom of loaning~ ·collection of books to Kamp Kia Kima this season and tbe use of these books thoroughly demonstrates the value. of good books in the ci;i.mp. There is a decided improvement in the care the boys are taking of the books-sent to Kamp Kia Kima and this year the darrage to them v:as very slight and there were no books lost. T~1is ssieaks well ·for the· boys,,. training in the care of bpoks .at ca~. The Reading Committee would like to see every Scout in Chickasaw Council a subscriber to the splendid magazine "Boys 1 Life 11 • In times of economic stress it is difficult for many boys to subscripe to a magazine but since "Boys t Life 11 has ':)een reductJd to 75¢ per year when ten or more Scouts subs'crFle at the time of their troop regist:?:"ation, we feel that every Scoutmaster and Committeeman should strain a point to secure the necessary money to make "Boys t Lif en available to every boy in the troop. Your Committee recommends: 1. That in 1933 emphasis be placod on the securing of a greater number of readers of ":Soys t Life" in Chickasaw Co".mcil and that definite steps be made to increase the numoer of subscribers by the Reading Committee. 2. That a reading list of ap~roved books for Scout use be compiled and 'that this list be used as a basis of reading for the Reading Merit Eadge. 3, That Scoutmasters encourage reading from such a list. That Scouts and Scouters be enco1JTaged to build a permanent Kamp Kia Kima and Camp Currier. both library at 4. 5.

ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 15, 1932 **•* ·REPORT OF TRAINING Your Committee is pleased to re~ort COMMITTEE that the work accomplished this year. while small in volume, has been thorough, and this is due entirely to the capable leadership we have been fortunate in securing for these training schools. We are deeply grateful to the Scout Leaders and Council Members both National and Local who gave freely of their time and experience in serving as instructors and officers for these schools and training courses. Dr. H. W. Hurt, Directo~ of Research for the National Council, conducted a school for leaders in the cub packs for 19 menbers. ten of whom received their certificates. In the spring the Miniutuip Course of the Five Year Program was conducted far 52 members of. the Local Counyil, 36 of thes~ men. receiving certificates, Mr. Perry Pipkin, Scoutmaster .of Troop 34, .served as. the very capable Scoutmaster of this· school, most ably ~~sisted by Mr. c.

Delaney, Scoutmaster of l, and H. R. Schwarzkopf, Scoutmaster of 26. as Patrol Leaders. , Late this fall this same c·ourse was offered again, due to the large number of new Scoutmasters in the Council, under the following leaders. Dr. Howard Curl, District Corrmissioner, as· Scoutmaster; Mr. c. H. Church, Scout.master of 48, as Assistant Scoutmas~er; Mr. Joe Flanagan, Scoutmaster of 3, as Senior Patrol Leader; and Messrs. Miller Johnson, Scoutrmster of 8, Wightman Hughes, Scoutmaster of 5, Jack Bondurant, Scoutmaster of 74, and Guy Boyer, Scoutmaster of ?, served as Patrol Leaders to a school of 54 men. The exact number to receive certificates has not been determined at this writing. This school went immediately into the work of the Approved Course with Mr. Fraser .Estes, Scoutmaster of 13, replacing Mr. Boyer as Patrol Leader. This school is now in session with an attendance of 53. The colored Scoutnasters of the Council held a training school under the leadership of J. A. :Beauchamp, Assistant to Mr. Stanley A. Harris, National Director of Inter-Racial Activities, with an attendance of 30 men, 17 of whom received a certificate. Your Comnit tee wishes to advise that .the reason certificates are not awarded to these schools 100% is due almost entirely to the inability of the men to meet the requirements of the course in the m tter of time in attendance, a certain number of hours attendance being required in each school. To our retiring President, Mr. C. T. McCabe, your Corrmittee owes a multitude of thanks and its sincere appreciation for his assistance in securing space in the Shrine Building for these schoels and for his never-failPage 24. �!lilPORT OF TRAINING COMMIT'r.cS (Continued) ing personal support. ' Our recommendations for 1933 are:. 1. That the present school be held intact a.nd additional :recruits be added and the Council hold its first school of the Standard Course of the Five Year Program.

ANNUAL MEETING, DECEM.B.ER 15 I 1932 **** RIPO RT OF TROO P COMM ITTEE ORGA VIZA TI.QN Your Committee reports that during the year ending December 1, 1932, there were 6 troops of white Scouts and no troops of colored Scouts organize d. These 6 troops and their sponsor ing institut ions are as follows: Troop Troop Troop Troop Troop Troop 35 Highlan d Heigpts Presbyt erian Church 42 St. John's Episcop al Church 51 Rebecca Memorial Methodi st Church 55 Parlavay Methodi st Church 58 McLemore Ave. Presbyt erian Church 74 Peabody Civic Club The Council now has 62 troops of white Scouts and 8 troops of colored Scouts, a total of 70 troops. Iast year on December 1st we had 61 white troops and 12 colored troops, or a total of 73 troops, hemce we have a net loss of 3 troops during the year ending December 1, 1932. Last year the Council had 1,530 Scouts, whereas this year we have 1,511 Scouts, a net loss of 19 Scouts. The heavies t losses have been among the negro troops- -last year there were 161 colored Scouts while we now have but 105, a net loss of 56 Scouts. During the year there were 9 troops which failed to reregis ter and were dropped from the Council ls rolls. Five of these troops were Nos. 10, 18, 22, 51 and 61 composed of white boys~ and the remainin g four troops were Nos. 104, 106, 107 and 110 composed of colored boys. This last year has been a most difficu lt one in which to secure reregis trations . In our opinion the Council has never had to face such dif- ficultie s in getting leadersh ip and in keeping troops register ed and functioning as we have encount ered during the past twelve months. Economic conditions are reflecte d in our membership very quickly , and numbers of our Scouts ~nd Scouters are unable to pay their registra tion fees. However, we are not the least bit discoura ged about the future growth of the Council , for we feel certain the coming year will see gains instead of losses in our ranks. For 1933 we strongly recommend and urge that every effort be made by the Troop Organiz ation Committee, the Executiv e Board and the Council to carry through to the fullest extent the 10 Year Program of the Nationa l Council which begins·o n January 1, 1933. We believe the 10 Year Program to be one of the most outstand ing forward steps the Movement has ever taken and that we should carry out our part of this Program to the very best of our ability.

In spite of Page 27 �REPORT O'.F SCOUT EXECUTIVE (Continued) pression through which :we are passing, cabi·!l· building has increased at the camp and this makes it possible for troops to use Camp Currier more and more. The second annual Jamboree at the ca.mp was the largest ~e have ever had with 973 Scouts in camp as co!lr9ared to 825 last year. I want to thank Mr. Ra.ymond Skinner. President 'of the Forest Hill Dairy, for his courtesy in loaning his Courtesy Wagon to our various troops to go to Camp Currier. Without his help many of our boys would not have been able to go to the camp this year. This Courtesy Wagon is always fl.ll'nished free of charge and has made nany trips to Camp Currier. Ka.mp Kia Kima had a very successful ·season although the attendance was smaller than last year. In spite of this fact the camp was a financial SllCcess sho~ing a net profit of $13.20 at the end of the ten weeks of operation as compared to $23. 66 in 1931. We were very happy to have u-i th us 37 boys from surrounding councils and I hope these boys will retm:n next year. There is a vital need to secure a larger nwnber of boys to attend Kamp Kia Kima but I feel confident as soon as business conditions return to anything like normal ue will have a narked increase in attendance at camp. The Council has shovm a slight loss in troops and Scouts. For the year. ending December 1, 1931, .re had 73 troops and 1, 530 Scouts, whereas this year \7e have 70 troops and 1,511 Scouts. This year has been a most difficult one in which to secure troop reregistra tions and Scouter reregisttations as financial conditions have· nade it hard for number.s of our men and boys to spare the money for reregistration~ I feel that. during the coming year conditions '.7illirnprove and that ~·1e '1'7ill show a_ very substan.tial gain in both troops and Scouts. One of the most difficult situations we have h~d to meet has been in dealing ui th the negro troops. our heavies't losses have 'been among colored boys. Last year we had 12 negro troops. whereas t.his year we have but 8. Plans have been ta.ken to remedy this situation and I believe in a short time conditions wi 11 be materially improved.

This year, as for the past two·, the Council is conducting a series of Inter-Troop Rallies to select from the troops of the city the best rally troop. At this rally last year, Troop 1 was the winner in a very heated contest with Troops 3, 13, 19, 26, 27, 37, and 38. The Annual Jamboree at Camp Currier held in May was probably the most successful activity the Council ever had, 973 Scouts taking part and well over a thousand adults attending. This Jamboree started under the most adverse conditions, it being a rainy cold day t:ie first day of the Jamboree, and the troops are to be especially commended for the efficient and workmanlike ID3.nner in which they erected their camps and handled themselves. The Activities Comrni ttee has continued its luncheon club which meets every Friday at Lo11enstein's for a round table discussion and this has proven one of the most worth'.7hile projects the committee has ever attempted. Making this, my final reuort as Commissioner, I desire to thank those men rrho have served on this ;o::mi ttee with me for t!J.eir whole-hearted and unselfish cooperation, they having given unselfishly of their time toward the promotion of better Scouting and I could ma.ke no better recommendation to the new Conmissioner than that he appoint these same men to serve with him on his cowmissioners staff. Respectfully submitted, ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE :By ._a,z~~~ Chairrrlan Page 1. l CHICKASAW COTJNCIL. B. s. A • .ANNUAL MEETING, DECEM3.ER 15, 1932 * * * * REPORT 0 F CAMP CURRIER C 0 M M I T T E E We are pleased to re:9ort that for the year ending December 1, 1932, Camp Currier has had the most successful yeai· in its history. During this year foere uere 9, 18'7 Scout days s-,)ent at caffi9 as comuared to 7, 160 days in 1931, an increase of 2,027 or 28.31. Also we had the pleasure of having 3,328 visitors as compared to 3,046 in 1931, an increase of 282 visitors or 9%. These figures speak volumes in telling of the sustained interest Scouts and Scouters have in our camp. Mrs. Elizabeth B. Currier has donated $200.00 to the camp this year which money is to be kept in trust until such time as sufficient funds are available to raise the height of the dam. It is due to Mrs. Currier's generosity that we have the dam on the carno. The dam i1as built in 1931 at a cost of ap:siroximately $700. 00 and is no;7 a height of 14 feet. Mrs. Currier plans to raise the dam to a height of 25 feet \7hich wi 11 impound about 25 acres of ':1ater instead of ap-proximately 10 acres which we no\7 have. We are greatl3r indebted to Mrs. Currier for the \7onderful things she has done to make the camp such a delightful ~lace for our boys to enjoy. The Jamboree held April 29th, 30th and M9.,y ls t '.7aS the largest and most successful we have ever had. There "mre 973 Scouts in camp for this event and doubtless many more ·.10uld have come but for the fact that it rained practically the entire first day of the Jamboree. In spite of difficulties caused by the weather the Scouts '9i tched their tents or opened up their cabins and made themselves comfortable 'Ji th the finest display of Scouting technique' we have ever seen. We believe t~is Jamboree should be an annual event. In spite of the present financial depression cabin building has ma.de splendid progress during t:1is year. Last year there were 20 troops nho had completed cabins on the caffi9, t~ese being Troops No. 5, 8 1 15, 16, 19, 24, 25, 26, 29, 32, 33, 34, 38, 40, 41, 49, 50, 67, 68, and 69. During t~'l:i.s fiscal year ue are pleased to state that six more cabins have been finished by the follo'.-:ing troops: Nos. 7, 11, 13, 27, 37, and 48. Only four cabins remain unfinished and the fifth has just been begun. Troops 3 and 14 have practically completed their cabins but their finishing touches were not put on in ti~e to be included as completed cabins in this report. We are very proud of the work the troops have done in cabin building this year in spite of adverse conditions. Latrines after the plan of the Shelby County Departme~t of Health have "been built to accommodate the following troops: Nos. 5, 8,. 117 13, 16~ 19, 24, 25, 26, 27, 29, 32, 34, 37, 38, 40, 41, 48, 49, 50, 68, and 69. With all the activity and increased attendance at ca.nip there has been a singular freedom from accident and illness. Thousands of s;7irrming hours resulted in no mishaps, noboC.y needing assistance except two nho failed in passing tests and were helped to shore by assistant life guards. This Page 2. REPO::CT OF CA~.1P CURRIE''- COWHTT:SZ (Continued) record '.1as largely due to ~1reventive :::easuros. The only injury ·.1orth recording suffered by any Scout at Camp Currier ims ca.used by a Scout falling out of a tree and breaking his nrrr, this 1:;.fter he had been re:rpea tedly r:arned to stay out of the tall trees. E'lis year has ·;ti tnessed the co::iplete es t<.:.blishment of t1.1e lake so that -.-1e feel it is safe from destruction by hi'.¢1 ·.mter. Several times during the summer the lake level '.·1as r.dsed above the norrrol outlet but the surplus water ··.m.s easily hnndled \7ithout resortin;g to the or:1ergency pipe under the dam. The dam is noi7 in splendid condition a!ld is completely covered rli th Bermuda grass 11hic~1 protects it in case of overflo".7. This grass ·.ms donated to the en.mp by 111!'. E. A. Smith of the Camp Currier Cammi ttco. J.1.nother "9leasing fact is tl1at the beautiful clearness of the water has been maintained even follo·:Ting the heaviest rains. This d-:mbtless is because almost none of the drainage basin is cultivated and it ·.1i 11 continue to be in this condition because this area is ormed and controlled b;i• us • .A splendid start has been made in stocking the lake ·,-,i th game fish this yenr. The first consignment of fish put into the lake ;ms 300 rainbo11 trout from the Tonnossoe State Hatchery near N.'.lshvi lle follor1ing '.7hich about a thousand black bass fin,gerlings ·.wre donated to the camp by the Izaac 1.70.lton League of !1iem:9his from the Rainbo'.-: Ln.kc at Overton park; after i7hich a!r'._)roxirrntcly 3, 600 perch of several species »iere obtained from the borro'.7 pi ts along the Mississippi levee by i;>ermission of t:-ie Mississip"?i Game and Fish Commis• sion and ·out into the lake. All of tl18se fish Here put into the ·.1nter in a very s:nort space of time, About t\70 ·;reeks after the perch ·.-rcre put in a thousand bream from the United States Fish Hatchery at rr'u:pclo ·.:ere put into the lake togefoer i7ith 40 black bass fir:.:a:e:i:-lings, the gift of Prof. Evern Jones of Hernando, Mississippi. It is contemplated that more fish ·aill be added from time to time and that the lake •:rill aL;:iys be completely stocked ·17ith fish. One of the principal and most im;iortant improvements rm.de at the co.mp durin2; the past year 0,1as a nen fence made of barbed r;ire and hog \1ire all around the reservation. This iffi?rovoment was rnade by funds raised by Nir. Walter Lane Smith, Chairnnn of the Councills Finance Committee. The fence has greatly hel~od inasmuch as it keeps all stock off the camp and makes it possi0le to keep the ~round in a much more sanitary condition as r1e 11 as keeping poachers and dogs off the property. Another excellent -project this year 110.s the planting of native trees and ornamental shrubs according to the plans ilrn\7n by Mr. :rave Renfrm1 of the Memp:1is Pnrk Commission i7i th a vier1 to rounding out the beauty of the ca;T!P in a way that '.Jill harmonize \nth the natural 'iioods that already covers most of the pro·perty. Completion of this project could not be expected in one year but due to the generosity of Mrs,, M. M. Betts of the Mem1):his Art Academy a large number of al thea bushes -..ere planted on the drive leading from the entrance to the headquarters. Other don:..itions of various shrubs have also been received and planted from various friends of the camp. In planning for Camp Currier for 1933 we recommend t..11.e follo,-:-ing: 1. That t:'le principal camp roads be covered ;1i th gravel so that Page 3. REPORT OF CAMP CURRIE~t COM1V.ITTEE (Continued) all cabins may be reached in ~et ~eather. 2. That the camp water supply be enlarged so that ~7ater 11ill be available throug.~out the camp. 3. The ceiling of t~e u~stairs rooms of tn0 Ben S.

It's a big imoroverrent over the last year from a Merit Badge standpoint. Some of the Merit Badges that the Scouts have taken show a little decrease but in the wbole on the ones that have a 'Jig bearing on Scouting, we feel that they have done a very, very eood job and in the doing of this good job we would want to express our very sincere tharJ{s to the splendid work which has been done by ScoutIIB.sters, Asst. Scoutmasters and the many Scouters who have done the examining of the Scouts before they reach the Court of Honor for final passage, and we would want to lay great stress on this outstanding wor~ that these splendid men have done on the Merit Badge work. We would also want to -9raise the work which was done this last summer at Kamp Kia Kima, for it was a splendid work and the chairman particularly wants to thank the men who have been so active on the Court of Honor this past year, Wit~out them we could not have functioned. That you might know how much improved our Merit Badge work has been, the Chairman would just like to say that a few years ago it was a very easy matter for one Court to examine the boys in a very short tirre each Court of Honor meeting. In the past year it has been necessary practically ever-~ Court of Honor meeting to hold three courts to take care of the boys. You can appreciate the work that these men have been doin~ because our Merit Badge examinations run from 80 to 100 each night. There are a few Merit Badges that I would like to call your attention to on uhich our boys have nade a splendid record this year and very important Merit Badges they are: Bird Study, Carpentry, Civics, Cookin;g, First Aid, Forestry, Handicraft, Life Saving, Pioneering, S\1imming. There is one Merit Badge that our Scouts have inrproved on a little but I hope the next year that foey will sho'7 a very marked improvement and that is the Merit Badge Safety, a thing that every citizen needs to give a little thou,ght to every day from the reports ne see in t:.1e pa."?er on the loss of life, and the Court of Honor also rrishes that all those ~ho are connected ~ith various troops uill give serious analysis to these Merit Badges and let's next year shou even a better record than we have made this year, and we would ~ant you to knoi1 that \7C stand ready at all time> to assist you in any way that qe can.

ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 15, 1932 * * * * REPORT 0 F CUBBIUG COMMITTEE On recommendation of the Executive Board of the Council a Cub Charter rras a:pplied for and received from National Headquarters in March, 1932. Earlier in the year one group o!: about 40 boys - ages 10 to 12 - had organized themselves into what t~ey called a pack and were meeting Friday nights without any fixed pro{St"am or authorized leaders. This group \18.S reorganized, supplied i:1itn Cub Handbooks, a Cubmaster, three First Class Scouts as Den Leaders, and a Pack Cormnittee according to the plan of the National Council. This group of leade~s later attended a special training course under the direction of Dr. H. w. Hurt from National Headquarters and the or~anization is now knoVTn as Pack ffel, sponsored by the Idlenild Presbyterian Church. The Cub Corrmittee has had considerable difficulty in the proper reorfP,nization of this one group which was started before trained leadership was available or the program carefully studied. We recomnend that any church, or other s~onsoring organization, wishing to organize a Pack, first apply to Scout Headquarters, confer with the Cub Comnittee, and have the pro6I'8.Jll well in mind before starting. The program is entirely different from Scouting; much of it is in the :pioneer or n try out" stage. Therefore, we believe the Cub Movement, altho~ gh eventually a wonderful aid to Scouting and an actual necessity in dev~loping more and better Scouts, should be built up gradually and ~ith great care.

AN1TIJAL ME:3::TI:TG, T'EC~-<::r.Sill 15, · 1932 * * * * The Health and Safety Committee is pleased to report a good year, not only insofar as the health of Scouts themselves is concerned but also the activities of Scouts in heloing to i,iromote the health of the public generally. There were no serious injuries and no serious cases of illness at Camu Currier, Kamp Kia Kina, or Ca:119 Daniels. The only injury worth mentioning was on.e 'broken arm sustained by a Scout who fell out of a tree at Camp Currier, and the only case of illness v1as that of a boy who ate too mu.c'.1 food out of a ~)OX sent to him at Karen Kia Zima wi:iich resulted in a case of nettle rash. .2ot~1 of these cases responded very well to treatment and no permanent ill effects resulted. Your committee was instrumental in having a general sanitary survey of Kamp Kia Kim by a trained inspector of the Mem.J:1is Health Department. The camp was found to be in good condition and a favorable reuort was made by the inspector. :7e wisn to commend the Camp Currier Cora:nittee for the work which has been done toward sanitation at the camp t:-ds year in the b 1.ii lding of latrines for the various troops. The Scouts have done a ~'e~t deal of good work for the Shelby Cou..~ty Tuberculosis Society in clistri'l:!utin:~ blotters and posters whenever called on to do so by the Society. For 1933 we recommend: 1. That Scouts continue the good work of former years. 2. That Scouts be urged to be irrmunized against srrall pox and tYPhoid fever before going to camo each year unless this matter has already been attended to. 3. That consideration be given to health progTarrs at general or troop meetings once eacb year. Respectfully submitted, H.JaLTH Alff) SAFETY COMMITTEE Bv " Chairman Page 13. CHICKASAW COUNCIL. B. S. A. ANNUAL M1!:3THrG. DEC1JMBZrt 15, 1932 * • * "' REPORT 0 F INT1iR-R.ACIAL C 0 M M I T T E E We regret to report that Scouting among colored boys has been at a low ebb during the yea:r ending December 1. 1932. On December 1st of last year we had 12 troops of colored boys and 161 Scouts. This year we have but 8 troops and 105 Scouts, a net loss for the year of 4 troo~s and 56 Scouts. This is a serious loss to the Council and "ile earnestly recommend that continuous endeavors be ma.de to stem the loss of Scouts and troops. We do not like to rna~e comparisons between white and negro troops but we think it well for all Scouters to kno« that only 5 ~hite troops were dropped during the year from the total of 67 white troops on the Council's rolls, a loss of 7.4% as comnared to the loss of 33.3~ among the colored troops. Ue fullyrealize that economic conditions havo a great deal to do uith the failure of negro troops and Scouts to reregister but at the same time we believe a sustained effort on the uart of the negro leaders and the Council can do much to1ra.rd koeping these b~ys in Scouting. We believe Scouting among colored boys was never needed as badly as at the present time \7he~ we are passing tDrough ~ financial depression which has severely affected our unemployment sit'Uation. With approximately 36% of the population of Shelby County being negroes there is a. vast field for Scouting to do a tremendous amount of good and ~e have the opportunity to do it. Ue strongly recommend that ne~ troops be organized just as rapidly as competent leadership can be found and trained and financial conditions wilI permit. Below is a comparison of the ITork done by colored Scouts during 1932 as compared to 1931: Second Class Badr:;es Awarded First Class Badges Aiicll'ded Merit Bads~s Awarded Star Badges Awarded 1931 1932 16 9 44 0 11 8 52 3 There ·.1ere 8 Cowts of Honor beld for colored "l:loys during the year. One of the ~rincipal reasons for t~e loss of colored Scouts is their failure to advance beyond the Tenderfoot Rank a.~d we urge that emphasis be placed on advancement during 1933. \7e also recornme:1.d that more stress be placed on camping and other out-door activities durir..g the coming year. The third annual surrmer ca"ttp, k:J.o\7Il as Camp Daniels, was conducted from Au,~u.st 22nd to August 29th of tbis year under the direction of J. A.

As recommended in last year's camp report we inaugurated a policy of having visitors days on wednesday and Saturday afternoon and all day Sundays and found that this was muc~'- better than having visitors coming into camp all during the week. We recommend this :9olicy be continued next year. During the past season for the first time we had a party of Scouts and Scouters to repair canoes at the end of camo. Several canoes were recanvased and nine canoes in all were put in condition to t~rn the water next spring. 1.le believe t:,is is a good policy inasmucn as it allows the paint to dry during the winter months and we believe uill result in longer wear in the canoes. For 1933 we recommend the following: 1. That every effort be made to secure a larger attendance of Scouts. 2. That the mess hall be rescrecned. 3. That a nen double ave~ range for the kitchen be purchased. 4. That a new gasoline ensine for the pump be purchased. 5. That a concrete cesspool be built in place of the wooden one no\1 in use. 6. That as much equipment for the handicraft shop be secured as finances i7i 11 permit. Respectfully submitted,.· KAMP KIA KINiA COMMITTEE By Chairrran Page 17, CHICKASAW COUNCIL. B. S. A.

RZPORT 0 F P U B L I C I T Y C 0 M U I T T E E The Publicity Committee repo~ts that during the fiscal year ending Decem"Jer 1, 1932, "The Press SciF.1itar" has given excellent cooperation by running a quarter page known as 11 The Scout P1·ess Sci mi tar" once each week. This pa3e is widely read by Sco1J.ts and Scouters and it is of tremendous help to Headquarters in that it keeps t~e troops, boys a~d officials informed of Council activities. We appreciate the cooperation shown by this paper and its reporters and officials and feel that it has been of much assistance to the C ounc i 1. "The Evening .Appealn has also cooperated by g1v1ng the Counci 1 much ne·.1s space and stories as well as a colunm conducted by one of its reporters in which many items of interest to the Scouts appear weekly. 11 The Evening Appeal 11 also has a cup which is the coveted goal of all troops in the Inter-Troop Rally Tournament. \Ve wish to thank 11 The Evening Appeal11 for its help. 11 The Coranercial Appeal" has given us a number of news stories and much needed publicity in the Cotton Carnival as well as during other periods of the year. We thank them also. The Council has published a little paper known as 11 The Council Fire 11 • It is of much help to the troops as it enables the Executive to expl. ain to the Scoutmasters the planned actiYities, etc. This paper is sent to all of the Council as well as the officials. There is a publication known as "The Chieftain11 through which the news of troops and activities of the negro troops is sent to troops, officials, and Council Members. The Inter-Troop Rally Tournament held at Ellis Auditorium in February 1932 drew quite a crowd ap,""_ served to draw attention to Scouting. T'.ae use of Scouts in the Cotton Carnival and l7as:1ington Bi-Centennial Celebration served to give additional publicity to Scouts and Scouting. One of the most effective uses of Scouts during the past year was the distribution by uniformed Scouts of 17,018 coin boxes for the Mayor's Unem~loyment Relief Fund. For the ensuing year we recommend: That special efforts be n:ade to secure additional space in the newspapers and that editorials, ne~s stories and other publicity features be used as freely as possible. page 19.

ANNUAL MEZTIWG, DECEMBER 15, 1932 * * * ·* REPORT OF R E A D I N __ G c _o M M I TT E E Your Comnitte·e on Reading reports that there has bei:m an increas_ed interest in the reading of better books on the pa.rt of Scouts of 'various troops. It is a pleasure to re-9ort that the number of b_oys awarded the Merit Badge in Reading has sho~n a slight increase this year over last. One of the requirements to pass the Reading Merit Badge is that a Scout be a subscriber to a magazine for Scouts and a strict adherence to this requirement shows that. the boys have a keen interest in "Eoys 1 Life:ft. T'4e Cossitt Library followed its usual eustom of loaning~ ·collection of books to Kamp Kia Kima this season and tbe use of these books thoroughly demonstrates the value. of good books in the ci;i.mp. There is a decided improvement in the care the boys are taking of the books-sent to Kamp Kia Kima and this year the darrage to them v:as very slight and there were no books lost. T~1is ssieaks well ·for the· boys,,. training in the care of bpoks .at ca~. The Reading Committee would like to see every Scout in Chickasaw Council a subscriber to the splendid magazine "Boys 1 Life11 • In times of economic stress it is difficult for many boys to subscripe to a magazine but since "Boys t Life11 has ':)een reductJd to 75¢ per year when ten or more Scouts subs'crFle at the time of their troop regist:?:"ation, we feel that every Scoutmaster and Committeeman should strain a point to secure the necessary money to make "Boys t Lif en available to every boy in the troop. Your Committee recommends: 1. That in 1933 emphasis be placod on the securing of a greater number of readers of ":Soys t Life" in Chickasaw Co".mcil and that definite steps be made to increase the numoer of subscribers by the Reading Committee. 2. That a reading list of ap~roved books for Scout use be compiled and 'that this list be used as a basis of reading for the Reading Merit Eadge. 3, That Scoutmasters encourage reading from such a list. 4. That Scouts and Scouters be enco1JTaged to build a permanent library at both Kamp Kia Kima and Camp Currier. 5.

ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 15, 1932 * * • * ·REPORT OF TRAINING COMMITTEE Your Committee is pleased to re~ort that the work accomplished this year. while small in volume, has been thorough, and this is due entirely to the capable leadership we have been fortunate in securing for these training schools. We are deeply grateful to the Scout Leaders and Council Members both National and Local who gave freely of their time and experience in serving as instructors and officers for these schools and training courses. Dr. H. W. Hurt, Directo~ of Research for the National Council, conducted a school for leaders in the cub packs for 19 menbers. ten of whom received their certificates. In the spring the Miniutuip Course of the Five Year Program was conducted far 52 members of. the Local Counyil, 36 of thes~ men. receiving c e r t i f icates, Mr. Perry Pipkin, Scoutmaster .of Troop 34, .served as. the very capable Scoutmaster of this· school, most ably ~~sisted by Mr. c. H. Church, Scoutnaster of Troop 48, as Assistant Scoutmaster, and Me.ssrs •. R. Von Steinen, Scoutmaster of 68, Gerald Capers, Scoutmaster of 19, E. !{. Leach, Scoutmaster of 14, H. L. Delaney, Scoutmaster of l, and H. R. Schwarzkopf, Scoutmaster of 26. as Patrol Leaders. , Late this fall this same c·ourse was offered again, due to the large number of new Scoutmasters in the Council, under the following leaders. Dr. Howard Curl, District Corrmissioner, as· Scoutmaster; Mr. c. H. Church, Scout- .master of 48, as Assistant Scoutmas~er; Mr. Joe Flanagan, Scoutmaster of 3, as Senior Patrol Leader; and Messrs. Miller Johnson, Scoutrmster of 8, Wightman Hughes, Scoutmaster of 5, Jack Bondurant, Scoutmaster of 74, and Guy Boyer, Scoutmaster of ?, served as Patrol Leaders to a school of 54 men. The exact number to receive certificates has not been determined at this writing. This school went immediately into the work of the Approved Course with Mr. Fraser .Estes, Scoutmaster of 13, replacing Mr. Boyer as Patrol Leader. This school is now in session with an attendance of 53. The colored Scoutnasters of the Council held a training school under the leadership of J. A. :Beauchamp, Assistant to Mr. Stanley A. Harris, National Director of Inter-Racial Activities, with an attendance of 30 men, 17 of whom received a certificate. Your Comnit tee wishes to advise that .the reason certificates are not awarded to these schools 100% is due almost entirely to the inability of the men to meet the requirements of the course in the m tter of time in attendance, a certain number of hours attendance being required in each school. To our retiring President, Mr. C. T. McCabe, your Corrmittee owes a multitude of thanks and its sincere appreciation for his assistance in securing space in the Shrine Building for these schoels and for his never-fail- Page 24. !lilPORT OF TRAINING COMMIT'r.cS (Continued) ing personal support.

ANNUAL MEETING, DECEM.B.ER 15 I 1932 * * * * RIPORT OF TROOP ORGAVIZATI.QN COMMITTEE Your Committee reports that during the year ending December 1, 1932, there were 6 troops of white Scouts and no troops of colored Scouts organized. These 6 troops and their sponsoring institutions are as follows: Troop 35 Troop 42 Troop 51 Troop 55 Troop 58 Troop 74 Highland Heigpts Presbyterian Church St. John's Episcopal Church Rebecca Memorial Methodist Church Parlavay Methodist Church McLemore Ave. Presbyterian Church Peabody Civic Club The Council now has 62 troops of white Scouts and 8 troops of colored Scouts, a total of 70 troops. Iast year on December 1st we had 61 white troops and 12 colored troops, or a total of 73 troops, hemce we have a net loss of 3 troops during the year ending December 1, 1932. Last year the Council had 1,530 Scouts, whereas this year we have 1,511 Scouts, a net loss of 19 Scouts. The heaviest losses have been among the negro troops--last year there were 161 colored Scouts while we now have but 105, a net loss of 56 Scouts. During the year there were 9 troops which failed to reregister and were dropped from the Councills rolls. Five of these troops were Nos. 10, 18, 22, 51 and 61 composed of white boys~ and the remaining four troops were Nos. 104, 106, 107 and 110 composed of colored boys. This last year has been a most difficult one in which to secure reregistrations. In our opinion the Council has never had to face such difficulties in getting leadership and in keeping troops registered and functioning as we have encountered during the past twelve months. Economic conditions are reflected in our membership very quickly, and numbers of our Scouts ~nd Scouters are unable to pay their registration fees. However, we are not the least bit discouraged about the future growth of the Council, for we feel certain the coming year will see gains instead of losses in our ranks. For 1933 we strongly recommend and urge that every effort be made by the Troop Organization Committee, the Executive Board and the Council to carry through to the fullest extent the 10 Year Program of the National Council which begins·on January 1, 1933. We believe the 10 Year Program to be one of the most outstanding forward steps the Movement has ever taken and that we should carry out our part of this Program to the very best of our ability.

EXECUTIVE Chickasaw Council has had a very good year during 1932. The Court of Honor has set a Council record in the number of Merit :Badges awarded, the camping program has been carried out splendidly, more Scouts have won their Eagle Badge than in any other year, and more Scouters· are actively working with troops than in any time in the history of the Council. To appreciate the splendid work the boys are doing in winning Merit ~dges .it is necessary to compare the work of the last three years: .. Merit Badges Awarded for Year Ending December 1, 1932 11 11 11 tt 11 11 December l, ·1931 - 2, 114 1,780 1,150 tt 11 11 t1 t1 · n ·December 1, 1930 - . Fro~ . .this it wi 11 be seen that the· \70rk of the Court of Honor has almost been .. , -doubled during the past three years, This is an especially fine -piece of· Ylork and t:1ere.is every indication that it will continue to grow next year• This has been the most difficult year in the history of the Council so far as finances a.re concerned and but for· the generoiis help of the Scouters who contributed to the :Emergency Fund the Council woula not have been able to S)lrv:i.ve financially, Even nith this help ue have not been able to pay our quota to, the National Council atnounting to $350. 00. This is a very bad si tuation and I hope 1 t can be remedied vTI. thin the very near future. }l:ad we not been able to borrow money· from some of our snecial accounts' ne would not have been able to have kept the Council bills paid. As it ·i's, we have not as yet (Decembe~ 12th) received our November allotment from the Memohis Community Fund, an4, r1e. therefor.a have not paid our Novem'ber ·bills. Other than these bills and the amo'Wlt d~ the National Council, our Council 1s free of debt. Tfiere ha'.s been a 'vast improvement at Camp Currier during this year. Throu,~1 the good work of Mri. Walter Lane Smith, Chairtran t>f the Finance Committee, funds were made available to build a wire fence co~letely aro~nd the property and thus pr.otect it from stock which in the past has roamed freely over. the camp. This is one of the biggest i~rovements we have ever had at .ca.mp. The lake which nas .built lo.st year throug..11 the generosity of Mrs~ Elizabeth E. Currier is beautifully clear and has been well stocked with fish. This year N~s. Currier has very generously given $200.00 to be added to the Camp Currier Lake Fund which has for its obj€ctive the raising of the dam from 14 feet to a height of 2.5 feet. This ;1ould impound about 25 acres of -.w.ter as compared to the ten acres we nou have. 17e certainly appreciate Mrs. Currier•s splendid generosity and the uonderful contributions she has made to the camp. For the year ending December 1, 1930, there were 3,564 Scout days .. spent at Camp Currier and the following ye.ar there nere 7,150 days while for the year ending December 1, 1932, there \1ere 9,187 Scout days spent on the ca~. This is truly a remarkable increase in attendance and attests to the populari tY of the camp \vhich is constantly increasing. In spite of the de- Page 27 REPORT O'.F SCOUT EXECUTIVE (Continued) pression through which :we are passing, cabi·!l· building has increased at the camp and this makes it possible for troops to use Camp Currier more and more. The second annual Jamboree at the ca.mp was the largest ~e have ever had with 973 Scouts in camp as co!lr9ared to 825 last year. I want to thank Mr. Ra.ymond Skinner. President 'of the Forest Hill Dairy, for his courtesy in loaning his Courtesy Wagon to our various troops to go to Camp Currier. Without his help many of our boys would not have been able to go to the camp this year. This Courtesy Wagon is always fl.ll'nished free of charge and has made nany trips to Camp Currier. Ka.mp Kia Kima had a very successful ·season although the attendance was smaller than last year. In spite of this fact the camp was a financial SllCcess sho~ing a net profit of $13.20 at the end of the ten weeks of operation as compared to $23. 66 in 1931. We were very happy to have u-i th us 37 boys from surrounding councils and I hope these boys will retm:n next year. There is a vital need to secure a larger nwnber of boys to attend Kamp Kia Kima but I feel confident as soon as business conditions return to anything like normal ue will have a narked increase in attendance at camp. The Council has shovm a slight loss in troops and Scouts. For the year. ending December 1, 1931, .re had 73 troops and 1, 530 Scouts, whereas this year \7e have 70 troops and 1,511 Scouts. This year has been a most difficult one in which to secure troop reregistra tions and Scouter reregisttations as financial conditions have· nade it hard for number.s of our men and boys to spare the money for reregistration~ I feel that. during the coming year conditions '.7illirnprove and that ~·1e '1'7ill show a_ very substan.tial gain in both troops and Scouts. One of the most difficult situations we have h~d to meet has been in dealing ui th the negro troops. our heavies't losses have 'been among colored boys. Last year we had 12 negro troops. whereas t.his year we have but 8. Plans have been ta.ken to remedy this situation and I believe in a short time conditions wi 11 be materially improved. I am deeply indebted to Mr. Walter .L. ~ay who has so splendidly cooperated throughout the. year by preparing; and serving without cost . to the Council all the meals for the Scout Leaders Round Table -,1hic:h has met once each month. Mr. Grayrs services to the Council are tremendously valuable as there is no doubt but what his splendid \1ork has built ~ the lfound Table to where it is of much value to the Scouters of the Council. Our Sea Scouts have been remarkably active and I want to invite your attention to the report of the Sea Scout Committee. They have certainly done a fine job this year. I certainly appreciate Dr. Leroy's kindness in allowing the Sea Scouts to use his boat for their training. · Cubbing was started this year vii th one pack sponsored· by the Idlewild Presbyterian Church. 1'his is a splend:i,d program for young boys and I expect it to develop.a good deal in 1933. · As usual, the Scouts have done sone very fine Community Good Turns and I \1ould like to call your attention to the Civic Relations Committee Renort. The Council. is proud of the work our boys have done. I nant to than:tc the ne\1Spapers for the publicity they have given Scouting activities during the past year, especially the Press Scimitar which page 28. REPORT OF SCOUT EXECUTIVE (Continued) has eiven a quarter-page of Scout news every week. This -publicity has been of much benefit to the Council. Chickasaw Cou.~cil could not have made the splendid record it has for this. year had not the officers and members of the Executive Board, the Council Members, Merit Badge Counselors, District Commissioners, Scoutmasters, .Assistant Scoutmasters and Troop CoirJ!Ilitteemen cooperated at all times. I particularly want to thank the Office~s and Members of the Standing Committees for their especially fine Tiork. Many demands ha.ve been made on some of our Scouters for time that they could ill afford to give, but they have· all helped whenever and wherever they could. I wi;:int to take this opportunity to than.1< each and every man who has worked \7ith the Council this year for the sacrifices they have made and the real work they have done that our Council might give to our boys every op~9ortuni ty to become better citizens through the advantages of Scouting, I am especially indebted to our President, N.r. C. T. McCabe, who has so unselfishly given of his splendid ability throu&-~out the year in planning and working for the betterment of the Council. It has been a real pleasure to work ni th him. ' In planning the '.1ork of the Council for 1933 I recommend: 1. That every effort be made touard getting the Ten Year Program established and that plans be carefully laid to increase the number of troops and Scouters just as rapidly as funds are available to take care of the ex~ense. Several ships of Sea Scouts should be included in this council growth as '7ell as several Cub Packs. 2. That \7e have another Merit Badge Exposition if financial conditions wi 11 permit. 3. That ~e continue to train our leaders and give them the benefit of more knmiledge of Scouting. 4. That another Jamboree be held at Camp Currier. 5. That ear],y plans be made to secure a larger attendance at Kamp Kia Kima so that a larger percent of our boys will have the benefit of this camp. 6. That increased emphasis be laid on Scouting for negro boys and that 11e organize new troops whenever the proper leadership and supervision can be secured. 7, That we encourage every troop to build a cabin at Ca~ Currier if they do not now ?ossess one. 8. That the Council secures funds ;1ith which to pay the 1932 quota due the National Council. g, That every effort be made th'.rough additional "9ublicity and other means to educate the public .at large and especially the heads of churches and other institutions as to the val~e of Scout training.

A • .ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 5, 1933 **** R E P 0 R T OF ACTIVI TIES COMITT EE I . The Inter-Troop Rally Tournament started in the fall of 1932 culminated in the rally finals held February 10, 1933, Anniversary Week, when nine district champions battled for the rally championshi p and a leg on The Evening Appeal Cup. Troop 15 of the Bellevue Baptist Church won, scoring 365 points, followed by Troop 19 '1i th 362 points, Troop 4 \7i th 350 points and Troops 48, 21, 38, 68, 13 and 37, Troop 8 uon the President's Banner for the non-contend ing troop with the best appearance in a review which opened the rally. Field .Commissione r Bob Taylor was in charge and was assisted in refereein~ and scoring by District Commissione rs Curl, Eliot, \Vatson, :Blair, Scherer, Stephens, Wilkerson, and Scouters Heiskell, :Blanton, Bradley, Sher~1ood, Hughes, Haney, and by Drs. W. R. Blue. and Robert Paine. The third an~l CaII!P Currier Jamboree :1as held May 5th, 6th and 7th '.7ith 1, 175 Scout.a of 40 troops present and approximate ly a thousand adults attending. Competitive events included Camping, Morse and Semaphore Signalling, Water Boiling, Tent Pitching, Knot Tying, Forestry, and Wall Scaling. For the first time, night signalling, using the Morse Code 11ith flashlights , was made an event. The troops as a rule made an excellent showing in camping, there being 8 first places and 5 second places auarded. Troop 19 i1as first '1ith 210 points and Troops 4 and 38 tied for second place i7i th 186 points. The commission ers' staff "\7as ass istoa. in conducting the events by Scouter Noah Henline and Messrs. Lloyd Ramsey, M. p, Gilliland, Charles Glascock, Dolph Clark, and Nugent Browder. Invaluable assistance, especially in -preparing for the arrival of the troops, nns given Camp Director Hays by Scouters Sprott, Wilkers on and Embury while Executive Morris o.nd a corps of helpers operated the canteen. For the first time since 1928 no rally tournan'l.ent involving a fixed schedule of inter-troop rallies i7as organized this fall. Lack of interest by troop leaders, especially in the last year, and probably due to increased demands on their time occasioned by general conditions, caused the committee to attempt to de-errq;>hasize inter-troop rally competition . The troops in each district uill meet in a district rally to be held January 12th, 13th, 19th, or 20th as the case may be. Each troop being scored on an efficiency basis, the eight highest troops '.7ill compete for the city championshi p at the big 11 rally finals 11 to be held some night in Anniversary i7eek, Feb. 8-14. In addition, all troops are being urged to try for the design.a ti on of 11 s. tand.ard rally troop 11 by making a certain minimum score in each event. Some troops have been, at their option, rallying other troops in preparation for these district rallies. The number of troops rallying has been even smaller than last yeo.r and \7e hope that more ;-lill do so in the next feu \7eeks. Despite the committee's uillingness to leave the troops freer to follo'\7 their m1n programs, most of the members are firm believers in inter-troop rallies and re comment them as ·.1onderful aids in maintaining attendance, use of the uniform, skill in certain Scouting subjects and the interest of the older Scouts. As a general rule our good rally troops have best supported community good turns and other Council projects. page 1. �REPORT OF ACTIVI'l'!ES COMMITTEE (Continued) Shortly after the Camp C"\ll"rier Jamboree the various districts were reorganized on more of a neighborhoo d or community basis than.on a rally basis. Eleven districts were formed in place of the eight former districts, with from three to eight (generally five) troops in a district. Work on this district organizatio n has proceeded up to the present. While the commissioner has had from two to four districts to look after personally throt:1g!lout the year, .we are now happy to report that with the recent imposition of double duty on two of our veteran referees, every district has an active district commissione r who contacts the troops for O"\ll" Executive's office and encourages and ~ssists the troop leaders where possible. In May twelve troops were without Scoutma.s ters and several troops had been dropped. Now only t\70 troops are \7ithout Scoutmaster s, while Troops 51, 53, and 64 have been reorganized and 71 is being reformed. Field Comnissione r Bob Taylor has been of invaluable assistance in reorganizin g and strengtheni ng troops. A brief report form for recording visits of the -comnission ers (nade at least monthly) is in use and vie can state that every troop in Memphis has been visited during the last month by its comnissione r. With the capable staff below, this important contact and supervision will be faithfully carried on and should result in a more closely knit Council and better troops. ·On behalf of myself personally and the Council I want to thank these men for their faithful and unselfish cooperation .

In order to allow our staff more time with their districts, we have organized a separate staff of rally referees composed of experienced young men whom I i1ish to thank again at this time.

In leadership replacements and strengthening of troops, many older Scouts were called on and I wish particularly to thank Scoutmasters Joe Flanagan (Troop 3), Curt it Luck (Troop 46) and Guy Boyer (Troop 7) and Ass is tan ts Cleburne Grace (3), RuSBell Zierman and Alan Dixon (46), and Leslie Young (1), I have been able to visit every troop in Memphis at least once during this past year and have been .fortunate enough to recrui.t several Scoutmasters and other leaders. Because of this contact I would like to close with several recommendations. Seventeen troops had a change in Scoutmasters during the year. Our present staff should do much to reduce this excessive turn-over during the next year and also the time between changes. A large part of the unsettled conditions were with recently formed troops. I believe written applications. for the formation of new troops should be made and leaders recruited by thi? respective institutions who have been Scouters previously or must have attended training courses. If approval is granted, the new troop should be formally installed. Very short training or inspirational courses are needed for our troop committeemen and representatives of institutions. More Sea Scout Ships are needed if Scoutmasters would cooperate by persuading older Scouts who are about to drop out of regular Scout activities, to become Sea Tho need of an additional paid worker or workers if we are to adeSco~ts. quately serve our present enrollment has been very apparent. And our present number of troops could be easily doubled. It has been a pleasure to work with our Scoutmastera, Commissioners and others and we look forward to much progress in 1934. Respectfully submitted, ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE :By page 3. �CHICKASAW COUNCIL, B. S. A. ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 5, 1933 **** I COMMITTEE CURRIER CAMP ===============~======================== Your Commit tee begs to report a very satisfactory yea:r at Camp Currier. We suffered the loss, however, of our Camp Director, Harry Myers, who had a very serious illness during the early spring. After a long st8¥ here he finally went to Colorado and a few weeks ago was back here on a little visit. We feel that the Committee, the boys, and the camp have lost a wonderful man. He became Camp Director soon after the property was bought and continued with it without interruption until his illness. I am sure the entire Council joins with Us in wishing Harry a speedy recovery. REPORT OF When Mr. Myers became ill, fortunately ~7e had Willard Hays, a trained we sent inmediately to Currier and he has been there continuously \1hom camper, ever .since. Willard has taken unto himself a wife and the appearance of headquarters with that feminine touch is most satisfactory. During the past spring our deep well went out of commission. After getting all the expert advice possible, we finally decided to sink another well close by the old one. This has been completed and is giving us an excellent stream of water. In time it is going to be necessary to get another engine, as the old one is about worn out, but for the present at least we are getting by in a very satisfactory manner with the o1d equipment. During the year we have done some planting of flowering shrubs of one sort and another. The$e have been given us by various friends and we are still in need, particularly of crepe myrtle. We hope that some friend or friends of the Council will give us a number of plants of this shrub. It is our desire to out line the road leading from the entrance to headquarters with this beautiful plant. ·The Scout troop of the School for the Deaf and Blind at Stanton, Va., gave us rhododendrum plants which are growing very satisfactorily on one of the north hills. A troop of Scouts at Roanoke, Va., gave us some chinquapins. A friend at Lynchburg, Va., gave us some more chinquapins and a friend at The Park Commission, through Mr, Yorkto~7Il, Va., gave us some Scotch broom. Renfrow, gave us valuable directions about the planting of shrubs and also gave us a number of plants. It is our desire to transplant a lot of dogwood from the interior woods to the outer edges. We contemplate doing a good deal of that this winter. The lake has proved a most popular place during the year for boating and fishing. Mrs. Currier has contributed $200. 00 for the raising of the dam, which we expect eventually to do. It is due to Mrs. Currier's splendid generosity that we have the lake at Car!'.P, as she furnished all of the money for the building of the darn which impounds the water in the lake. The lake is a constant source of pleasure to our Scouts and they certainly enjoy the fishing and boating which it affords. page 4, �REPORT OF CAMP CURRIER COMMITTEE (Continued) The Jamboree was held at' Camp on May 5th, 6th and 7th 1 and was even larger than the one the year before, 1,175 scouts attending as. compared to 973 in 1932. We hope that the Council will see fit to have all future Jamborees at camp and if possible other tYPes of Scout activities in which adults and visitors are interested. We are glad to, report we have had no acci_dents at Camp of any consequence, Let's hope that we can keep up _this good record. Vle are indebted to Mrs. Charles A. Barton, mother of Eagle Scout 1 Charles :Barton, for the gift of three large wall tents, about 16 1 x 20 in size, which are valuable additions to the camp. Theywill be of tremendous service during. the Jamborees and other activities. We have had the camp road from headquarter s due north on the eastern side re-graded. We have a contract for gravelling of the worst part of this road and we hope to have it finished.wi thin the next few weeks • . Those of us who have been to camp during rainy weather know how exceedingly important and necessary this is. We are glad to report that the camp is free of debt, as it has been our constant policy to have no work done unless the funds available therefor were at hand. We have no special requests for general improvement s next year. We feel the camp is going along very satisfactor ily as it is and it is our idea that steady improvement is the best policy for the camp for the years to come. Respectfull y submitted, CAMP CUBRIER COMMITTEE c-( I _ Page 5. �CHICKASAW COUNCIL. B. S.

It has been a splendid job that they b,ave done. Not only is our Council indebted to these men, but are the· citizens of Memphis. At the _s~e. time, we want also to express our deep gratitude to our Counselors .whose work it has been to examine each boy in his particular Merit :Badge as to his. knowledge 'of that particular subject and whether he kno~s enough about i~ to pass the requirements. Their services can really not be apPreciated by those who are not familiar with Merit Badge work, but those who are can appreciate what it means to examine between two and three thousand boys per year on any one of the9~ particular Merit Badges and some of them have two and three that they examine on. We '7ould also like to compliment those who had charge of the Merit Badge work at Kamp Kia Kima this year. Their Court of Honor up there did a very outstanding job. The thing that is particularly satisfying to the Court of Honor this year is the large number of boys who have acquired the Safety Merit Badges. We dwelt some on that particular Merit Badge last year and we certainly want to thank the Scoutmasters for the energy they put in their boys on this particular Merit Badge. We would also call your attention to the large number of different Merit Badges a Scout can take during his Scouting years. i7e feel that this year has been an improvement over last year; not so much, but still a satisfactory one. Respectfully submitted, COURT OF HONOR page 9-, �CHICKASAW COUNCIL, B. S, A. ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 5, 1933 **** REPORT OF CUBBING COMMITTEE Cubbing in Memphis, as well as in other cities, is still very much in an experimental stage, and is handicapped at present by the lack of trained or experienced leadership. Ue have gained some v~luable experience the past year in Pack l with Worthington Brown as Cubmaster, W. S. Roberts, Jr,, and Charles Metcalf as Assistants. Some twenty of these original Cubs have recently graduated into Scouting and are starting out well. We are now working on the organization of a second pack. which \7ill no doubt be functioning before Christmas. Our plan is to proceed slowly and carefully in attempting to develop the Cub program in this Council. Cubbing is lli2.i Scouting~ but is a Home-Centered program of things to .9:.£, based on natural neighborhood settings, let:!-dership, and play groups (Dens), encouraging boy hobbies and natUral learning - a joy-increasing game in which ~ shares. ' The younger boy, not old enough to be a Scout, is often a problem to Scoutmasters. There is a tendency among Scoutmasters to allow these boys to attend Scout meetings, join in games and hikes, even to organize them in a patrol and give them some of the Scout program preparatory to entering the troop. This may be all right if the boy is within a month or two of his 12th birthday, but this policy with boys 9, 10, and 11, including younger boys acting a~·· mascots, i7ill make trouble later in Scouting. It \7i11 make very diffis.;ai't the organization of a pack and the getting of the best results from the Cub program. This program gives tho tenderfoot tests just before the Cub is 12 and is all tho Scout program ft permits. This is a necessary and good rule. Any church, or other sponsoring organization, feeling the urge to develop, or the necessity for developing, a program for boys, ages 9 to 12, should get in touch \1ith Headquarters 11here they 11ill find inforrmtion relative to the preliminary steps, and can arrange for a conference 11ith this Commi ttoe.

ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 5, 1933 **** REPORT OF FINANC E COMMIT TEE The fiscal year ending December 1, 1933, has been a most critical one so far as the finances of Chickasaw Council are concerned. Due to the failure of the Memphis Community Fund to collect its ~ledges, Chickasaw Council received only $7,047.60 of its allocated budget of.$9,885.3 8. Therefore, the Memphis Community Fund still owes the Council $2, 837. 78. Due to this condition, the Council was in difficulty in meeting its obligations , but by borrowing money from various other Council accounts, we were able to continue operations. At the present time. we owe these accounts as follows: Camp Currier Lake Fund Improvement and Development Fund $200.00 336,00 or a total of $536.00. These two accounts do not have to be repaid immediately, but we owe the National Council $350.00 for the 1932 quota and this should be paid just as soon a.s possible. We were able to pay the 1933 quota but still · owe for the 1932 quota. Due to the financial conditions, the Council Executive Board decided 29, 1933, to resign from the Memphis Community Fund and to conSeptember on campaign. This campaign was hurriedly organized, but under the o~n its duct Mr. A. D. McW:~orter, General Chairman, and Mr. Ed Dalstrom, Coof leadership chairman in charge of general solicitatio ns, the pampaign was conducted for a budget of $14,945.00. Of this amount $11,021.97 was raised. $5,250.92 being in cash. Tnere were 1,819 pledges received during the Campaign. Of the $11,021.97, approxiwate ly $1400.00 was raised by the colored division under the leadership of M. W. Bonner and Dr. C. M. Roulhac. The negroes accepted a quota of $1,500.00 and have practically reached their goal. It is expected when tho final returns .of the proceeds from the football game on Thanksgivin g are received that they will be over the top. We consider this a very outstanding piece of work. Chickasaw Council needs a minimum of $1,000.00 a month in order to operate efficiently . Due to the fact that we have accumulated the above mentioned debts, together with Campaign expenses, we will not have enough money to maintain the budget which had been set up as necessary for the best result in 1934. However, we will have enough to o~erate on in a better fashion than we did in 1933. On account of the Finance Campaign being completed almost at the same time that the Annual Meeting of the Council was scheduled to be h~ld, your Committee did not have time to rrake up detailed statements from the Council records. However, the books of the Council were audited as of October l, 1933, by G. A. Watson and Company. certified public accountants . and were found in order, A copy of this audit is on hand at Council Headquarter s and is open to any Council MeITbers for inspection.

ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 5, 1933 * * ** REPORT OF HEALTH AND SAFETY COMMITTEE Your Cornmittee on Health and Safety is pleased to report that while 1933 has been a very active Scout year, our record from the standpoint of sickness and accidents among Scouts, while engaged in those activities, is splendid. The Scout days credited to our two camps this year, including 1,175 boys in attendance upon the Jamboree at Camp Currier, is well over g.,ooo boy-days. This does not include many thousands of hours of civic work and Scout Good '.t'urns; and yet, in spite of natural hazards of such a large amount of Scout activity, there was only one case of serious sickness and only one serious accident. We have reference to a case of appendicitis returned to Memphis from Kamp Kia Kima. and one case of a broken leg from Camp Currie!'. This Committee claims no credit for any of this remarkable record. Plans for sanitation and the setting up of machinery for protection of boys ~gainst sickness and accidents was the work of previous Health and Safety Committees, and in the carrying out of those plans the credit for the accomplishment of these remarkable results should go to the officers of the Council and the Scouts themselves. Your Committee has no recommendations to make in regard to the routine supervision of health and safety affairs in the Council except to suggest that the Council adopt the plan of periodical examination of all . Scouts -as. recommended by the National Council at its meeting in Kansas City. nespectfully submitted, HEALTH AND SAFETY COMMITTEE Page 12, �CHICKASAW COUNCIL, B. S. A. ANNU'AL MEETING, DECEMBER 5, 1933 **** REPORT OF INTER-RA CIAL COMMITTE E During the year 1933, the work among the colored boys has been improving very much, We are fortunate in having J. A. Beauchamp with us practically all this year, and his work has led to a much keener interest in Scouting. We have a well organi?.ed Sub-Council, composed of negroes who have learned their responsibi'litie s and are doing a very creditable job. Camp Daniels, located in Douglass park, was most excellently conducted during the past summer under the direction of Robert Ratcliffe with Dr. C. M. Roulhac acting as camp :physician. Thirty boys attended this camp for the full time. This camp was organized and put on entirely by the negroes, without calling on our Council for any assistance. Your chairman made a personal inspection during the camp and found everything to be in strictly first class condition. We have recently held a training course for Scout Leaders, conducted by Beauchamp and some of his better trained loaders, which was excellently attended. Also, the neg.roes have undertaken to raise $1,500.00 as their contribu.tion to our Council budget for 1933-34, a.nd of this amount they have turned in cash and pledges of approximately $1,300.00 up to date, which is a most remarkable record. We are proud to report that on December 1, 1933. we have 11 troops and 164 negro Scouts in them as compared to last year when we had 8 troops and 105 Scouts. This is a gain of 3 troops and 59 Scouts over last year and we are glad to note the increase. We hope to secure the services of J. A. Beauchamp as assistant executive in charge of negro work for the coming year. Also, the excellent record made by the negro Scouts has caused the ExecuUve Board of the Council to withdraw all restrictions with regards to the uniforms, and our colored Scouts can now secure full equipment on the same basis as the white Scouts. When we consider that one-third our population is colored, and further consider the small opportunity for character building among them, your chairman is thoroughly convinced that our Scout program among the negroes uill do more to improve our community than anything else we can do.

Committee reports that the 1933 camping season was highly succesaful at Kamp Kia Kima. We had one of the best camps in the history of the Council due to the splendid cooperation of the staff, for each .man on it tried to carry his full share of the camp duties. Everyone on the staff, from the Chief down, was interested in the welfare of the camp and contributed to the successful season. We regret that we did not have as many Scouts in camp as last year. The followirng comparison shows the decrease: Year Attendance Weekly Average Boy Weeks 1932 205 54 540 1933 159 54 432 In spite of this loss in· attendance, by careful management we were able to shou a reasonable margin of profit for the season. We would not have shown any profit had we made the necessary repairs to the catnp, which must be done before another season at Kia Kima. We refer to the screening of the mess hall, the purchase of a new range for the kitchen, repairs to the water system, etc, Also, the saiaries paid the camp staff this year were approximately half of what ~as paid them in 1932, as over $400.00 was cut off of our staff salaries. If our President, Mr. Mc\V.horter, had not furnished some new ovens for the stove, we could not have cooked on it this year. A new stove will cost approxima.tely $225. 00, the screening and other repairs to the mess hall about $200. 00, and other repairs on the camp, including the water system, paint, etc., will require a total of more than the money which we nnde during this camping season. The Century of progress Exposition in Chicago was one reason we did not have a larger attendance, as many boys could not afford to go to the Century of Progress and also to camp. The camp was operated for 8 weeks this yeD:r instead of the usual 10 weeks, which also caused a loss in attendance. This year practically the only repairs ma.de on the camp were a new cess pool of concrete for which our president donated a number of steel rails, so that the cess pool, now being built of concrete and steel, is practically indestructible and should last for many years; a new magneto for the engine; and temporary repairs to the screens. Due to the fact that Mr. Willard E. Hays, who has served as Camp Director for several years, was made Camp Director at Ca.mp Currier, it Has necessary to employ a ·new Camp Director this yea:r. The Cormnittee feels that Mr. Gordon Sprott, who served as Camp Director this season, deserves a world of praise for the efficient manner in which he conducted the camp, and we recommend that he be employed for another year. He was highly popular with the boys and Scouters, and everyone enjoyed himself at camp. At the end of camp, a party of Scouts and Scouters repaired all of Page 14. �REPORT OF KAMP KIA KIMA COMMITTEE (Continued) the canoes in camp, and there are nine canoes ready for the water. There are three others which have been re-canvassed and require only minor repairs and a coat of paint in order to be ready for the water. We believe this is a good polic~r, inasmuch as it allows the paint to dry during the winter months and results in longer wear on the canoes. The advancement program as compared to last year is .as follows: Years Merit Badges Emblems Sr. Red Cross Certificates Jr. Red Cross Certificates Life Saying Merit Badges First Class Second Class Star Life Eagle Palm 1932 264 1933 223 128 129 1 11 12 11 10 0 2 3 4 8 3 9 8 1 2 0 4 4 We believe advancement should be stresaed in 1934 and every effort made to help all eligible Scouts in Kamp to start and continue Merit Badge work in a systematic manner. For 1934, 1. That 111e recommend the following: ev~ry effort bo made to secure a larger attendance of Scouts. · 2. That the mess hall be re-screened, a new floor built in and that new tables be constructed. 3. That a new double oven range for the kitchen be -_purchased, 4, That water pipes be installed in the most advantageous places, so that uater will be available close to every lodge. 5. That as much equipment for the handicraft shop be secured as finances will permit. 6.

ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 5, 1933 **** REPORT OF TRAINING COMMITTEE Your committee is pleased to report that attendance at the courses offered during this year has been very gratifying, and we feel that this is due to the most capable leadership which has been available for these courses and training schools. We as a comrni ttee wish to take this op"9ortunity to express our appreciation and thank the Scout Leaders and Council Members both National and Local for the time and assistance which t.11ey gave so freely in serving as instructors and officers for training schools and courses. We know that a large number of the Scoutmasters and their Assistants have benefited from the teachings and experience of these men. We were fortunate in being in a position to offer for the first time the Standard Course of the Ji'ive Year Program during the early part of this year; this course began on January 31st and ran through April 4th, with an enrollment of eighty-nine men, and forty-seven of these were awarded certificates. This school was conducted at Southwestern University under the very able leadership of Dr. Howard Curl as Scoutmaster, .Dr. T. s. Eliot and N.ir. Roy Ryan as Assistant Scoutmasters, and Messrs. Ben Coffey, Commissioner, Joe Flanagan, Scoutmaster ~roop 3, H. R. SchV1arzkopf, Scoutmaster Troop 26, and E. K. Leach, Scoutmaster Troop 14, serving as Patrol Leaders in this school. Dr. N. R. Atkinson of the Faculty of Southwestern gave freely of his time and ability as Counselor of this school. On May 1st and 2nd, Mr. W. C. Wessell, Assistant National Camping Director, gave the Specialization Course in Troop Camping Instructorship, consisting of one in-door session at the Memphis Power and Light Auditorium and one out-door session at Camp Currier. Fifty-five men attended this course and received considerable benefit from Mr. Wessell's knowledge and experience. On October 16th, 23rd and 30th, a Specialization Course in Troop Program Building was offered at the Memphis Power and Light Company 1 s Audi tori um under the leadership of Mr. C. H. Church, Scoutmaster of Troop 48, as Scoutmaster of the School, assisted by Messrs, R. Von Steinen, Scoutmaster Troop 68, H. T. Butler, Scoutmaster Troop 15, and Miller Johnson, Scoutmaster Troop 8, as patrol Leaders; Mr. :Ben Coffey, Commissioner, and Mr. Gordon Morris, Scout Executive, carried the bulk of the lecturing in this course and made a most creditable job of it. This is the first time such a course has been offered in this Council and thirty-one men enrolled. We might mention that this course was opened to Scoutmasters and their Assistants only, so you may judge from this report that the men we have in charge of Troops are not only capable but always trying to improve their knowledge,. as a good percentage of the troops in the Council were represented in this school. The colored Scoutmasters were offered a College of Scouting at Le Mayne College and forty-seven of these men enrolled for this school. Three were awarded certificates of Leadership and Training, nine certificates for the Approved Course of the Five Year Program, and fifteen certificates for page 22. �REPORT OF TRAINING COMMITTEE (Continued) the Minimum Course of the Five Year Program. These men are taking this work seriously and should be encouraged and helped in every way possible. Scouting, properly trained Scouting, should spread as rapidly as possible with the negro and especially in Chickasaw Council. We now have under ~ay an American Red Cross First Aid School, which consists of eleven sessions; three were held dpring November, three will be held in December, and the Course finished in January and February of 1934. This school is under the leadership of Dr. Howard Curl, Dr. T. S. Eliot and Mr. Gordon Morris, with an attendance of thirty-five S·couters. Certificates to be ami.rdod in this school will be the. Specialization .Certificate in First Aid and the Red Cross Advanced Certificate. Our recommendations for 1934 are: 1. That such specialization course. as possible be offered to assist Scoutmasters in securing their Scoutmaster's Key, as a good many of them lack a specia:lization course ·to complete their re.quirements. 2. That the Standard Course of the Five Year Program be offered again this year, preceded by the Minimum and Approved courses of this Program. 3. That especial emphasis be placed on securing and training men for Scoutmasters prior to the time they are needed. It is our suggestion that these men be sold on the idea of Scouting, trained in: the Council Schools, and seasoned under some finished Scoutmaster in the Council before they are given a troop to ho.ndle. ·Respectfully submitted, TRAINING COMMITTEE ~L By~Y.£~.J~-· Page 23. �CHICK.A.SAW COUNCIL, B. S. A. ANNUAL MEETING,, DECEMBER 5, 1933 **. * Jl. E P 0 R T OF TR 0 0 P ORGA NIZA TJON COMM ITTEE Your Committee reports that during the year ending December 1, 1933, there were three troops of white Scouts and three troops of colored Scouts or. ganized , These six troops and their sponsori ng institut ions are as follows: Troop Troop Troop Troop Troop Troop · Longview Heights Civic Club 22 McLean Blvd. Baptist Church 44 Blessed Sacrame nt Catholic Church 76 First Baptist Church 106 St. John's Baptist Church 113 Lester St. School, Parent-T eacher Assn. 114 The Council now has 59 troops of white Scouts and 11 troops of colored Scouts, a total of 70 troops which is a fair showing for depressi on times. During the year there has been a snall gain in Scouts, which is very encourag ing considering the serious times that we are going through. This comrni ttee has taken the stand during the year that it will be best not to seek to organize ma.ny ··-nt3w··tr:oops but that the committ ee ts time should be spent strength ening and rehabilita ting the old troops and to this end your committ ee has worked and feels that at this time the troops of the Chickasaw Council are in very excellent conditio n and in charge of efficien t Scoutma sters. In view of the splendid response to Chickasaw Council 's drive for funds, the Council is now in fair financia l conditio n and better prepare d to go forward than it has been at any time during the :past few years. However, we recommend for 1934 that we go forward slowly and seek to build for stability rather than for numbers and that no new troop be allowed to enter the Council unless the instit~1tion sponsor ing the t:r:-oop is in thorough accord with the movement and is -prepare d to furnish efficien t 1 trained leaders to guide the destiny of.the troop. We are in thorough accord with the Ten Year Program and ~e hope to go forward in 1934 stronge r than ever. Respect fully submitt ed, TROOP ORGANIZATION COMMITTEE ..... ~ .. Page 24. �CHICKASAW COUNCIL, B. S. A. ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 5, 1933 * * * .. REPORT OF SCOUT EXECUTIVE Chickasaw Council has had a successful year during 1933. In some ways it has been an outstanding year and in others, not so good. The Court of Honor has set a Council record in the number of Merit Badges awarded, the camping progTam has been carried out splendidly, more Scouts have won their Eagle Badges than in any other year, and more Scouters are actively working ~ith iToops than at any time in the history of the organization. In order to fully appreciate the splendid work the Scouts are doing in winning Merit Badges, it is necessary to compare 1933 with previous years. Merit Badges awarded for year ending December 11 11 11 11 11 " December 11 11 11 11 11 11 December 11 11 11 11 " 11 December 1, 1, 1, 1, 1933 1932 1931 1930 - 2,452 2, 114 1, 780 1,150 This is especially gratifying and there is every indication that the Merit Badge progxam will continue to grow. Ca~ Currier held its third annual Jamboree with the largest attendance·, 1, 175 boys, that we have ever had in camp at one time. It is one of the most enjoyable events in the Council year and is growing in popularity with each year. Mr. Harry Myers, who was Camp Director at Camp Currier from 1925 up until this year, was tal{en sick early in the spring, and Mr. Willard E. Hays was appointed Camp Director in his stead. Mr. l'ey"ers did a very fine piece of work at Camp Currier and Mr. Hays is also doing splendidly. The Council is deeply indebted to V~s. Elizabeth B. Currier for her donation of $200.00 for the use of the camp. Mrs. Currier's continued and generous support and the wonderful contrib~tions she has made to the ca.mp make it possible for the camping activities to progress each yea:r. For the past ten years Chickasaw Council has been a member of the Memphis Communtty Fund, but throu.?;h action of. the Executive Board on September 29th, the Council resigned its membership. A campaign for funds was hurriedly organized to raise a budget of $14, 945. 00. Of this amount $11, 021. 97 was ~ubscribed, or 73.8%. Of the $11,021.97 the cash subscriptions amounted to $5,250.92 or 47,6%. In view of the general financial conditions, I feel this 1,7as a very successful campaign, and I want to thank every man and woman who worked in it, for I do appreciate their fine work and splendid cooperation. The colored division of the campaign raised approxirrately $1,385.00 of their quota of $1, 500. 00, to be used for work among negroes, and they will doubtless go over the top before they have finished. I want to take this opportunity to express my sincere appreciation to every person who contributed to the Boy Scout Fund Campaign. This loyal support makes it possible for the council to continue the Scouting program of cha:racter building and citizenship training for another year, page 25, �REPORT OF SCOUT EXECUTIVE (Continued) Because of the Century of Progress, it was decided to reduce the camping season at Ka.mp Kia Kima from ten weeks to eight weeks this yea:r. In spite of this strong competition and the fact that there is a dearth of money among many Scout parents, Kamp Kia Kima had a very successful season and made a mode!'ate profit, Mr. Gordon Sprott, who served as Camp Director, did a very fine job in directing the camp, and I would recommend his appointment for another year. As usual, the Scouts have done some fine community good turns, and I would like to call your attention to some of these which are listed in the report of the Civic Relations Committee. I uant to thank the "Press Scimitar" and 11 The Commercial Appeal11 for the fine publicity which they have given Scouting activities during the past yea:r. Especially do I want to express my appreciation to the 11 Press Scimi tc.~ 11 for the uonderful editorials, about 15 in number, which they published during the financial campaign. Without their help, it would have been a great deal more difficult to raise the amount which was subscribed, On December 1, 1933, the Council had 70 troops and 1,567 Scouts as compared to last year's record of 70 troops and 1, 511 Scouts. It has been difficult to secure troop reregistrations and Scout reregistrations, as financial conditions have made it hard for our Scouts and Sc outers to spare the money. I firmly believe that during the coming year conditions will improve and that we will show a very substantial gain in both troops and Scouts. Sea Scouting reached its highest peak in cruising this year when a number of Scouts of the s. S. s. "Bonita" sailed down the MississipPi to the Gulf. This was by far the most ambitious cruise which has been undertaken by our older boys, and I hope it is a forerunner of a great many more long and short cruises. The Council is indebted to the Memphis Park Commission for again permitting the colored Scouts to hold their camp in Douglass Park. The Park Commission gave us the use of one of the buildings in the Charles Wilson Home, which proved a very splendid camping place. The boys had a wonderful time, and I hope that next yea:r there ~ill be a longer camp, as one week,is not sufficient. Chick.a.saw Council could not have rmde as much progress as it has during these trying times without the fine cooperation and hard work of our Scouters. Many demands have been made on some of them for time that they could ill afford to give, but they have. cheerfully and gladly helped whenever and wherever they could. I want to take this opportunity to thank every man ~vho has tmrked for the Council this year for the sacrifices ma.de and for the real work uhich has b~en done that our Council might give to our boys every opportunity to become better citizens through the advantages of Scouting. I am especially indebted to our President, Mr. A. D. McWhorter, who has so unselfishing and tirelessly given of his splendid ability in planning and v1orking for the betterment of the Council. In planning the work of the Council for 1934 I recommend: pe..ge 26. �REPQRT OF SCOUT EXECUTIVE (Continued) 1. That every effort be made to organize at least ten new troops and to organize them on a basis which will be so funda.~entally sound that the troops will progress and give the boys the true worth of Scouting. That two ships of Sea Scouts and two Cub Packs shall also be organized. 2. That we continue to tI'ain our leaders and give them the benefit of a greater knowledge of Scouting, for without training their task is difficult. 3. That another Jamboree be held at Camp cur·rier. 4. That plans be made to secure a larger attendance at Kamp Kia Kina so that a greater percent of our Scouts rray have the benefit of this camp. 5. That increased emphasis be laid on Scouting for negro boys and that we organize new troops wherever the proper leadership can be secured. 6, That the Council secure funds with which to pay the 1932 quota due the National Council. 7. That every effort be made through additional publicity and other means to educate the public and especially the heads of churches and other institutions as to the value of Scout training~ 8, That an Assistant Executive be employed just as soon as fundS will permit. 9. That J. A. Beauchamp be employed to supervise Scouting among negroes. 10. That we continue to lay emphasis on the fact that Scouting is a game and encourage the continued development of the game in God's great outof-doors. Respectfully submitted, JI.

Cruises, Touring Camps, etc. should be included in the total figures given. Scouts from outsid~ the Council territory, however, should be reported only by the local Council under which. they are registered. Council-Directe d Camping". (Col. 1-10) includes "Registered Troops" and 11 Provisional Troops" camping under· conditions where there is a resident Camp Director provided by the Council for the purpose of coordinating the work of several Troops. This heading also includes camping "Under Other Types of Organization11 (col.9-10) wherein should be listed all camping v1hich does not properly belong under the heading of 11 Registered Troops" or "Provisional Troops". We doubt whether there are at the present time, any Council Camps still opera.ting on a 11 mass basis 11 , but if it should be the case that your Council has not been able to make this transition, please use the columns under this heading and also please indicate, on a separate sheet if necessary, the reason therefor. 11 "Independent Troop Camping" (col. 11-14) refers to Troops camping entirely on their own without a Council officer or representative residing in the caiap to give direction to the prograrn. It is expected that all such Cf.JilpS are supervised more or less closely by the Council Staff, or through Committee service, through approving plans and camp site and maJ;:ing one or more inspection visits. "Provisional Troops under Camp Leaders" - (col. 6-8) are the Troop units organized for the camp period for those Scouts in the Council-Directe d Camp who, for one reason o:r another, are not participating at that particular time in the Camping Program under their ovm Troop leadership as a chartered Troop unit. "Eliminating Duplication 11 : in the summary of year-round camping is difficult because of the failure of so many Troops to give the Local Council all of the facts. However, the local Executive is in position to make a more careful appraisal ofthis than can be done independently by the National Office. Analysis may prove that the number of boys getting no camping experience during the year has a direct relation to Scout tenure. Both numbers and percentage (of total membership) are asked for in the report because such statements are so valuable for your own information as well as for National Council records. Information on numbers of Troop Scouters (Volunteers) is requested in addition to Scouter Weeks for the entire Staff (col. 6-7, Troop and General Staff). A hational combined total on these items should indicate the trend toward realization of our Troop Camping objectives. This report should be made in duplicate,the original being sent direct to the National Office and duplicate copy filed in the local Counc:i,l office. L. L.

For the first time since 1928 no rally tournan'l.ent involving a fixed schedule of inter-troop rallies i7as organized this fall. Lack of interest by troop leaders, especially in the last year, and probably due to increased demands on their time occasioned by general conditions, caused the committee to attempt to de-errq;>hasize inter-troop rally competition. The troops in each district uill meet in a district rally to be held January 12th, 13th, 19th, or 20th as the case may be. Each troop being scored on an efficiency basis, the eight highest troops '.7ill compete for the city championship at the big 11 rally finals 11 to be held some night in Anniversary i7eek, Feb. 8-14. In addition, all troops are being urged to try for the design.a ti on of 11 s. tand.ard rally troop11 by making a certain minimum score in each event. Some troops have been, at their option, rallying other troops in preparation for these district rallies. The number of troops rallying has been even smaller than last yeo.r and \7e hope that more ;-lill do so in the next feu \7eeks. Despite the committee's uillingness to leave the troops freer to follo'\7 their m1n programs, most of the members are firm believers in inter-troop rallies and re comment them as ·.1onderful aids in maintaining attendance, use of the uniform, skill in certain Scouting subjects and the interest of the older Scouts. As a general rule our good rally troops have best supported community good turns and other Council projects. page 1. REPORT OF ACTIVI'l'!ES COMMITTEE (Continued) Shortly after the Camp C"\ll"rier Jamboree the various districts were reorganized on more of a neighborhood or community basis than.on a rally basis. Eleven districts were formed in place of the eight former districts, with from three to eight (generally five) troops in a district. Work on this district organization has proceeded up to the present. While the commissioner has had from two to four districts to look after personally throt:1g!lout the year, .we are now happy to report that with the recent imposition of double duty on two of our veteran referees, every district has an active district commissioner who contacts the troops for O"\ll" Executive's office and encourages and ~ssists the troop leaders where possible. In May twelve troops were without Scoutma.s ters and several troops had been dropped. Now only t\70 troops are \7ithout Scoutmasters, while Troops 51, 53, and 64 have been reorganized and 71 is being reformed. Field Comnissioner Bob Taylor has been of invaluable assistance in reorganizing and strengthening troops. A brief report form for recording visits of the -comnissioners (nade at least monthly) is in use and vie can state that every troop in Memphis has been visited during the last month by its comnissioner. With the capable staff below, this important contact and supervision will be faithfully carried on and should result in a more closely knit Council and better troops. ·On behalf of myself personally and the Council I want to thank these men for their faithful and unselfish cooperation.

In leadership replacements and strengthening of troops, many older Scouts were called on and I wish particularly to thank Scoutmasters Joe Flanagan (Troop 3), Curt it Luck (Troop 46) and Guy Boyer (Troop 7) and Ass is tan ts Cleburne Grace (3), RuSBell Zierman and Alan Dixon (46), and Leslie Young (1), I have been able to visit every troop in Memphis at least once during this past year and have been .fortunate enough to recrui.t several Scoutmasters and other leaders. Because of this contact I would like to close with several recommendations. Seventeen troops had a change in Scoutmasters during the year. Our present staff should do much to reduce this excessive turn-over during the next year and also the time between changes. A large part of the unsettled conditions were with recently formed troops. I believe written applications. for the formation of new troops should be made and leaders recruited by thi? respective institutions who have been Scouters previously or must have attended training courses. If approval is granted, the new troop should be formally installed. Very short training or inspirational courses are needed for our troop committeemen and representatives of institutions. More Sea Scout Ships are needed if Scoutmasters would cooperate by persuading older Scouts who are about to drop out of regular Scout activities, to become Sea Sco~ts. Tho need of an additional paid worker or workers if we are to adequately serve our present enrollment has been very apparent. And our present number of troops could be easily doubled. It has been a pleasure to work with our Scoutmastera, Commissioners and others and we look forward to much progress in 1934. Respectfully submitted, ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE :By page 3. CHICKASAW COUNCIL, B. S. A. ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 5, 1933 * * * * I REPORT OF CAMP CURRIER COMMITTEE ===============~======================== Your Commit tee begs to report a very satisfactory yea:r at Camp Currier. We suffered the loss, however, of our Camp Director, Harry Myers, who had a very serious illness during the early spring. After a long st8¥ here he finally went to Colorado and a few weeks ago was back here on a little visit. We feel that the Committee, the boys, and the camp have lost a wonderful man. He became Camp Director soon after the property was bought and continued with it without interruption until his illness. I am sure the entire Council joins with Us in wishing Harry a speedy recovery. When Mr. Myers became ill, fortunately ~7e had Willard Hays, a trained camper, \1hom we sent inmediately to Currier and he has been there continuously ever .since. Willard has taken unto himself a wife and the appearance of headquarters with that feminine touch is most satisfactory. During the past spring our deep well went out of commission. After getting all the expert advice possible, we finally decided to sink another well close by the old one. This has been completed and is giving us an excellent stream of water. In time it is going to be necessary to get another engine, as the old one is about worn out, but for the present at least we are getting by in a very satisfactory manner with the o1d equipment. During the year we have done some planting of flowering shrubs of one sort and another. The$e have been given us by various friends and we are still in need, particularly of crepe myrtle. We hope that some friend or friends of the Council will give us a number of plants of this shrub. It is our desire to out line the road leading from the entrance to headquarters with this beautiful plant. ·The Scout troop of the School for the Deaf and Blind at Stanton, Va., gave us rhododendrum plants which are growing very satisfactorily on one of the north hills. A troop of Scouts at Roanoke, Va., gave us some chinquapins. A friend at Lynchburg, Va., gave us some more chinquapins and a friend at Yorkto~7Il, Va., gave us some Scotch broom. The Park Commission, through Mr, Renfrow, gave us valuable directions about the planting of shrubs and also gave us a number of plants. It is our desire to transplant a lot of dogwood from the interior woods to the outer edges. We contemplate doing a good deal of that this winter. The lake has proved a most popular place during the year for boating and fishing. Mrs. Currier has contributed $200. 00 for the raising of the dam, which we expect eventually to do. It is due to Mrs. Currier's splendid generosity that we have the lake at Car!'.P, as she furnished all of the money for the building of the darn which impounds the water in the lake. The lake is a constant source of pleasure to our Scouts and they certainly enjoy the fishing and boating which it affords. page 4, REPORT OF CAMP CURRIER COMMITTEE (Continued) The Jamboree was held at' Camp on May 5th, 6th and 7th 1 and was even larger than the one the year before, 1,175 scouts attending as. compared to 973 in 1932. We hope that the Council will see fit to have all future Jamborees at camp and if possible other tYPes of Scout activities in which adults and visitors are interested. We are glad to, report we have had no acci_dents at Camp of any consequence, Let's hope that we can keep up _this good record. Vle are indebted to Mrs. Charles A. Barton, mother of Eagle Scout Charles :Barton, for the gift of three large wall tents, about 16 1 x 20 1 in size, which are valuable additions to the camp. Theywill be of tremendous service during. the Jamborees and other activities. We have had the camp road from headquarters due north on the eastern side re-graded. We have a contract for gravelling of the worst part of this road and we hope to have it finished.within the next few weeks •. Those of us who have been to camp during rainy weather know how exceedingly important and necessary this is. We are glad to report that the camp is free of debt, as it has been our constant policy to have no work done unless the funds available therefor were at hand. We have no special requests for general improvements next year. We feel the camp is going along very satisfactorily as it is and it is our idea that steady improvement is the best policy for the camp for the years to come.

It has been a splendid job that they b,ave done. Not only is our Council indebted to these men, but are the· citizens of Memphis. At the _s~e. time, we want also to express our deep gratitude to our Counselors .whose work it has been to examine each boy in his particular Merit :Badge as to his. knowledge 'of that particular subject and whether he kno~s enough about i~ to pass the requirements. Their services can really not be apPreciated by those who are not familiar with Merit Badge work, but those who are can appreciate what it means to examine between two and three thousand boys per year on any one of the9~ particular Merit Badges and some of them have two and three that they examine on. We '7ould also like to compliment those who had charge of the Merit Badge work at Kamp Kia Kima this year. Their Court of Honor up there did a very outstanding job. The thing that is particularly satisfying to the Court of Honor this year is the large number of boys who have acquired the Safety Merit Badges. We dwelt some on that particular Merit Badge last year and we certainly want to thank the Scoutmasters for the energy they put in their boys on this particular Merit Badge. We would also call your attention to the large number of different Merit Badges a Scout can take during his Scouting years. i7e feel that this year has been an improvement over last year; not so much, but still a satisfactory one. Respectfully submitted, COURT OF HONOR page 9-, CHICKASAW COUNCIL, B. S, A. ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 5, 1933 * * * * REPORT OF CUBBING COMMITTEE Cubbing in Memphis, as well as in other cities, is still very much in an experimental stage, and is handicapped at present by the lack of trained or experienced leadership. Ue have gained some v~luable experience the past year in Pack l with Worthington Brown as Cubmaster, W. S. Roberts, Jr,, and Charles Metcalf as Assistants. Some twenty of these original Cubs have recently graduated into Scouting and are starting out well. We are now working on the organization of a second pack. which \7ill no doubt be functioning before Christmas. Our plan is to proceed slowly and carefully in attempting to develop the Cub program in this Council. Cubbing is lli2.i Scouting~ but is a Home-Centered program of things to .9:.£, based on natural neighborhood settings, let:!-dership, and play groups (Dens), encouraging boy hobbies and natUral learning - a joy-increasing game in which ~ shares. ' The younger boy, not old enough to be a Scout, is often a problem to Scoutmasters. There is a tendency among Scoutmasters to allow these boys to attend Scout meetings, join in games and hikes, even to organize them in a patrol and give them some of the Scout program preparatory to entering the troop. This may be all right if the boy is within a month or two of his 12th birthday, but this policy with boys 9, 10, and 11, including younger boys acting a~·· mascots, i7ill make trouble later in Scouting. It \7i11 make very diffis.;ai't the organization of a pack and the getting of the best results from the Cub program. This program gives tho tenderfoot tests just before the Cub is 12 and is all tho Scout program ft permits. This is a necessary and good rule. Any church, or other sponsoring organization, feeling the urge to develop, or the necessity for developing, a program for boys, ages 9 to 12, should get in touch \1ith Headquarters 11here they 11ill find inforrmtion relative to the preliminary steps, and can arrange for a conference 11ith this Commi ttoe.

ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 5, 1933 * * * * REPORT OF FINANCE COMMITTEE The fiscal year ending December 1, 1933, has been a most critical one so far as the finances of Chickasaw Council are concerned. Due to the failure of the Memphis Community Fund to collect its ~ledges, Chickasaw Council received only $7,047.60 of its allocated budget of.$9,885.38. Therefore, the Memphis Community Fund still owes the Council $2, 837. 78. Due to this condition, the Council was in difficulty in meeting its obligations, but by borrowing money from various other Council accounts, we were able to continue operations. At the present time. we owe these accounts as follows: Camp Currier Lake Fund Improvement and Development Fund $200.00 336,00 or a total of $536.00. These two accounts do not have to be repaid immediately, but we owe the National Council $350.00 for the 1932 quota and this should be paid just as soon a.s possible. We were able to pay the 1933 quota but still owe for the 1932 quota. · Due to the financial conditions, the Council Executive Board decided on September 29, 1933, to resign from the Memphis Community Fund and to conduct its o~n campaign. This campaign was hurriedly organized, but under the leadership of Mr. A. D. McW:~orter, General Chairman, and Mr. Ed Dalstrom, Cochairman in charge of general solicitations, the pampaign was conducted for a budget of $14,945.00. Of this amount $11,021.97 was raised. $5,250.92 being in cash. Tnere were 1,819 pledges received during the Campaign. Of the $11,021.97, approxiwately $1400.00 was raised by the colored division under the leadership of M. W. Bonner and Dr. C. M. Roulhac. The negroes accepted a quota of $1,500.00 and have practically reached their goal. It is expected when tho final returns .of the proceeds from the football game on Thanksgiving are received that they will be over the top. We consider this a very outstanding piece of work. Chickasaw Council needs a minimum of $1,000.00 a month in order to operate efficiently. Due to the fact that we have accumulated the above mentioned debts, together with Campaign expenses, we will not have enough money to maintain the budget which had been set up as necessary for the best result in 1934. However, we will have enough to o~erate on in a better fashion than we did in 1933. On account of the Finance Campaign being completed almost at the same time that the Annual Meeting of the Council was scheduled to be h~ld, your Committee did not have time to rrake up detailed statements from the Council records. However, the books of the Council were audited as of October l, 1933, by G. A. Watson and Company. certified public accountants. and were found in order, A copy of this audit is on hand at Council Headquarters and is open to any Council MeITbers for inspection.

ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 5, 1933 * * * * REPORT OF HEALTH AND SAFETY COMMITTEE Your Cornmittee on Health and Safety is pleased to report that while 1933 has been a very active Scout year, our record from the standpoint of sickness and accidents among Scouts, while engaged in those activities, is splendid. The Scout days credited to our two camps this year, including 1,175 boys in attendance upon the Jamboree at Camp Currier, is well over g.,ooo boy-days. This does not include many thousands of hours of civic work and Scout Good '.t'urns; and yet, in spite of natural hazards of such a large amount of Scout activity, there was only one case of serious sickness and only one serious accident. We have reference to a case of appendicitis returned to Memphis from Kamp Kia Kima. and one case of a broken leg from Camp Currie!'. This Committee claims no credit for any of this remarkable record. Plans for sanitation and the setting up of machinery for protection of boys ~gainst sickness and accidents was the work of previous Health and Safety Committees, and in the carrying out of those plans the credit for the accomplishment of these remarkable results should go to the officers of the Council and the Scouts themselves. Your Committee has no recommendations to make in regard to the routine supervision of health and safety affairs in the Council except to suggest that the Council adopt the plan of periodical examination of all . Scouts -as. recommended by the National Council at its meeting in Kansas City. nespectfully submitted, HEALTH AND SAFETY COMMITTEE Page 12, CHICKASAW COUNCIL, B. S. A. ANNU'AL MEETING, DECEMBER 5, 1933 * * * * REPORT OF INTER-RACIAL COMMITTEE During the year 1933, the work among the colored boys has been improving very much, We are fortunate in having J. A. Beauchamp with us practically all this year, and his work has led to a much keener interest in Scouting. We have a well organi?.ed Sub-Council, composed of negroes who have learned their responsibi'lities and are doing a very creditable job. Camp Daniels, located in Douglass park, was most excellently conducted during the past summer under the direction of Robert Ratcliffe with Dr. C. M. Roulhac acting as camp :physician. Thirty boys attended this camp for the full time. This camp was organized and put on entirely by the negroes, without calling on our Council for any assistance. Your chairman made a personal inspection during the camp and found everything to be in strictly first class condition. We have recently held a training course for Scout Leaders, conducted by Beauchamp and some of his better trained loaders, which was excellently attended. Also, the neg.roes have undertaken to raise $1,500.00 as their contribu.tion to our Council budget for 1933-34, a.nd of this amount they have turned in cash and pledges of approximately $1,300.00 up to date, which is a most remarkable record. We are proud to report that on December 1, 1933. we have 11 troops and 164 negro Scouts in them as compared to last year when we had 8 troops and 105 Scouts. This is a gain of 3 troops and 59 Scouts over last year and we are glad to note the increase. We hope to secure the services of J. A. Beauchamp as assistant executive in charge of negro work for the coming year. Also, the excellent record made by the negro Scouts has caused the ExecuUve Board of the Council to withdraw all restrictions with regards to the uniforms, and our colored Scouts can now secure full equipment on the same basis as the white Scouts. When we consider that one-third our population is colored, and further consider the small opportunity for character building among them, your chairman is thoroughly convinced that our Scout program among the negroes uill do more to improve our community than anything else we can do. Respectfully submitted, INTER-RACIAL COMMITTEE By~~ Chairman Page 13. CMICKASAW COUNCIL, B. S, A. ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 5, 1933 * * "' * REPORT OF KAMP KIA K!MA COMMITTEE The Kamp Kia Kima. Committee reports that the 1933 camping season was highly succesaful at Kamp Kia Kima. We had one of the best camps in the history of the Council due to the splendid cooperation of the staff, for each .man on it tried to carry his full share of the camp duties. Everyone on the staff, from the Chief down, was interested in the welfare of the camp and contributed to the successful season. We regret that we did not have as many Scouts in camp as last year. The followirng comparison shows the decrease: Year Attendance Weekly Average Boy Weeks 1932 205 54 540 1933 159 54 432 In spite of this loss in· attendance, by careful management we were able to shou a reasonable margin of profit for the season. We would not have shown any profit had we made the necessary repairs to the catnp, which must be done before another season at Kia Kima. We refer to the screening of the mess hall, the purchase of a new range for the kitchen, repairs to the water system, etc, Also, the saiaries paid the camp staff this year were approximately half of what ~as paid them in 1932, as over $400.00 was cut off of our staff salaries. If our President, Mr. Mc\V.horter, had not furnished some new ovens for the stove, we could not have cooked on it this year. A new stove will cost approxima.tely $225. 00, the screening and other repairs to the mess hall about $200. 00, and other repairs on the camp, including the water system, paint, etc., will require a total of more than the money which we nnde during this camping season. The Century of progress Exposition in Chicago was one reason we did not have a larger attendance, as many boys could not afford to go to the Century of Progress and also to camp. The camp was operated for 8 weeks this yeD:r instead of the usual 10 weeks, which also caused a loss in attendance. This year practically the only repairs ma.de on the camp were a new cess pool of concrete for which our president donated a number of steel rails, so that the cess pool, now being built of concrete and steel, is practically indestructible and should last for many years; a new magneto for the engine; and temporary repairs to the screens. Due to the fact that Mr. Willard E. Hays, who has served as Camp Director for several years, was made Camp Director at Ca.mp Currier, it Has necessary to employ a ·new Camp Director this yea:r. The Cormnittee feels that Mr. Gordon Sprott, who served as Camp Director this season, deserves a world of praise for the efficient manner in which he conducted the camp, and we recommend that he be employed for another year. He was highly popular with the boys and Scouters, and everyone enjoyed himself at camp. At the end of camp, a party of Scouts and Scouters repaired all of Page 14. REPORT OF KAMP KIA KIMA COMMITTEE (Continued) the canoes in camp, and there are nine canoes ready for the water. There are three others which have been re-canvassed and require only minor repairs and a coat of paint in order to be ready for the water. We believe this is a good polic~r, inasmuch as it allows the paint to dry during the winter months and results in longer wear on the canoes. The advancement program as compared to last year is .as follows: Years 1932 1933 Merit Badges 264 223 Emblems 128 129 Sr. Red Cross Certificates 1 0 Jr. Red Cross Certificates 11 2 Life Saying Merit Badges 12 3 First Class 11 4 Second Class 10 9 Star 8 8 Life 3 1 Eagle 2 0 Palm 4 4 We believe advancement should be stresaed in 1934 and every effort made to help all eligible Scouts in Kamp to start and continue Merit Badge work in a systematic manner. For 1934, 111e recommend the following: 1. That ev~ry effort bo made to secure a larger attendance of Scouts. · 2. That the mess hall be re-screened, a new floor built in and that new tables be constructed. 3. That a new double oven range for the kitchen be -_purchased, 4, That water pipes be installed in the most advantageous places, so that uater will be available close to every lodge. 5. That as much equipment for the handicraft shop be secured as finances will permit. 6. That every Scoutmaster and Council Member avail himself of the opportunity of going to camp for at least one week. Respectfully submitted. KAMP KIA. KIMA COMMITTEE page 15. CRICK.A.SAW COUNCIL. B. S.

We especially wish to commend the permanent exhibit of equipment in the Scout Cabin in the Boys' Department of J. Goldsmith & Sons Co. This display is a constant reminder of Scouting to boys throughout the year and affords fine publicity. We also want to thank Phil A.

ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 5, 1933 * * * * REPORT OF PUBLICITY COMMITTEE The Publicity Connnittee reports that during the fiscal year ending December 1, 1933 11 The press Scimitar" has given fine cooperation by running its qllarter-page known as "The Scout Press Scimitar" once each week. This page is widely read by Scouts, Scouters and the general public, and through 1 ts news the troops, boys and officials get advance not i_ce of Council ac ti vi ties and Headqllarters is thus able to keep in constant touch with the troops. We appreciate the assistance and cooperation of this newspaper in keeping this quarter-page in its paper. 11 The Press Scimitar" aided us greatly in our campaign for funds by the wealth of publicity inserted in its pages and by the splendid spirit contained in the many editorials which appeared in its issues. The editor, Mr. E. J. Meeman, should be given an especial vote of thanks by the Council for his efforts in our behalf. This Committee thanks him very much. "The Commercial Appeal" gave liberally of its space for our news on the campaign and during the past year~ We thank it. "The Evening Appeal", during its operation, assisted u.s in getting news to the various troops and one of its reporters ran a column once a week, telling of various Headquarters news iterrs. as well as troop news. We thank that paper for its assistance. The Counci 1 9ub lishes a bulletin known as "The Council Fire". This is published by.Headquarters and in its pages the news of various Council activities appears. It is edited by our Executive. and the entire Committee thanks Mr. Morris for getting out this paper. For a portion of the year the news to the negro troops went to them through a paper called "The Chieftain". Practically all of the publicity connected with our campaign for funds was written by Mr. Jack Bondurant, Jr., and this comnittee realizes that we are deeply indebted to Mr. Bondurant for this aid. We thank him sincerely. The Scout Parade which was the opening gun of the fund campaign brought over half the Scouts of the city in to a spectacular march down Main Street. Tnousands of people lined the sidewalks and cheered on these Scouts and Scouters. Through the splendid cooperation of Mr. Mc\Vhorter, the street cars were routed off of Ma.in Street during the parade. We thank the Scouts, Scouters, and those who rrade the parade such a success. We thank Christian Brothers College for its assistance in furnishing its band, and we thank the Rec+eation D:3partment of the City for furnishing us with the Girls• ~um and :Bugle Corps for the parade. °' ·-., The Chairman thanks each and every member of his committee. They rendered invaluable assistance throughout the year. Mr. H. H. Barker furrtish- Page 17.

S. S. '!Bonita" is a 30 foot whaleboat equipped with oars and sails, oTmed by Chickasaw Council. T'nis year the Sea Scouts nade their first long cruise in the 11 Bonita11, the trip being from Memphis to the Gulf of Mexico. The 11 Bonita11 rras equipped for cruising with lockors and bunks, mosquito bars and tent awning, ma.leing it usable for living aboard. 'rhe trip was made· to New Orleans, through Lake Pontchartraint.o the Gulf, and through the Gulf to Biloxi nhere the boat stayed for a couple of weeks visiting a number Of the outlying islands. At Biloxi it was met by your chairman \7ith a large schooner, the 11 Mary Margaretn. and the o:pportunity was given the boys to sail and assist in handling a large schooner. The "Bonita" was to\7ed out to Horn Island and returned back under sail to Biloxi. These boys are to be much- complimented on their care. skill and good judgment in having accomplished this trip under own po•:er without any outside assistance and coming through somo quite bad water· and squalls while in Mississippi Sound. No mishap or accident of any sort occurred du.ring the \Vhole trip, 'IThich spealcs extremely well for their discipline and training as ~ell as for their initiative and sound judgment. Especial commend.D.tion is due to Mate John Mccallen who acted as officer in charge. It is to be regretted that during last year no new boats were added to the fleet and it is to be hoped that during the coming year at least 8 new cruising types of canoes may be added to the fleet which would make possible some very enjoyable and beneficial week-end cruises in fleet formation of 10 boats or so which co~ld readily be transported by automobile with but little expense to the upper r_eaches of Wolf River, Loosahatchie River, Hatchie River, and the South Fork of the Forked Deer River, and some longer trips of a week or so on the St. Francis, Whito, and Arkansas Rivers. We have thousands of miles of most interesting canoeing grounds opon for this type of cruising 1n>ich have never been utilized. Wo are especially pleased with the seamanlike manner in which the Sea Scouts have carried out their program of training in life saving. rm.rlin- Page 20. REPORT OF SEA SCOUT COMMITTEE (Continued) spike seamanship, etc. The best evidence of the thoroughness of this training is that in the four years this ship has been organized there has not been a single accident. The Commodore's boat, the "Gobble-Un", has been freely used as a training ship and the boys have derived much pleasure and profit from their cruises on this boat. For the year 1934 we recommend: l. That additional emphasis be placed on sea Scouting as a means of holding our older boys in Scouting. 2. That funds be provided in sufficient quantity to pay for dockage and miscellaneous repairs to the ":Soni ta11 • 3. That at least two new ships of Sea Scouts be organized. 4. That a Flood Relief Station, provided with boats and other equipment be maintained in Memphis, with the purpose in view of rendering service to people in inundated areas in case of highwater. This station to be manned by Sea Scouts whenever necessity arises. The objective of the station would be to save life and render aid whenever called on to do so by the people of the surrounding territory. Respectfully submitted, Chairman Page 21. CHICKASAW COUNCIL, ~. S. A. ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 5, 1933 * * * * REPORT OF TRAINING COMMITTEE Your committee is pleased to report that attendance at the courses offered during this year has been very gratifying, and we feel that this is due to the most capable leadership which has been available for these courses and training schools. We as a comrni ttee wish to take this op"9ortunity to express our appreciation and thank the Scout Leaders and Council Members both National and Local for the time and assistance which t.11ey gave so freely in serving as instructors and officers for training schools and courses. We know that a large number of the Scoutmasters and their Assistants have benefited from the teachings and experience of these men. We were fortunate in being in a position to offer for the first time the Standard Course of the Ji'ive Year Program during the early part of this year; this course began on January 31st and ran through April 4th, with an enrollment of eighty-nine men, and forty-seven of these were awarded certificates. This school was conducted at Southwestern University under the very able leadership of Dr. Howard Curl as Scoutmaster, .Dr. T. s. Eliot and N.ir. Roy Ryan as Assistant Scoutmasters, and Messrs. Ben Coffey, Commissioner, Joe Flanagan, Scoutmaster ~roop 3, H. R. SchV1arzkopf, Scoutmaster Troop 26, and E. K. Leach, Scoutmaster Troop 14, serving as Patrol Leaders in this school. Dr. N. R. Atkinson of the Faculty of Southwestern gave freely of his time and ability as Counselor of this school. On May 1st and 2nd, Mr. W. C. Wessell, Assistant National Camping Director, gave the Specialization Course in Troop Camping Instructorship, consisting of one in-door session at the Memphis Power and Light Auditorium and one out-door session at Camp Currier. Fifty-five men attended this course and received considerable benefit from Mr. Wessell's knowledge and experience. On October 16th, 23rd and 30th, a Specialization Course in Troop Program Building was offered at the Memphis Power and Light Company 1 s Audi tori um under the leadership of Mr. C. H. Church, Scoutmaster of Troop 48, as Scoutmaster of the School, assisted by Messrs, R. Von Steinen, Scoutmaster Troop 68, H. T. Butler, Scoutmaster Troop 15, and Miller Johnson, Scoutmaster Troop 8, as patrol Leaders; Mr. :Ben Coffey, Commissioner, and Mr. Gordon Morris, Scout Executive, carried the bulk of the lecturing in this course and made a most creditable job of it. This is the first time such a course has been offered in this Council and thirty-one men enrolled. We might mention that this course was opened to Scoutmasters and their Assistants only, so you may judge from this report that the men we have in charge of Troops are not only capable but always trying to improve their knowledge,. as a good percentage of the troops in the Council were represented in this school. The colored Scoutmasters were offered a College of Scouting at Le Mayne College and forty-seven of these men enrolled for this school. Three were awarded certificates of Leadership and Training, nine certificates for the Approved Course of the Five Year Program, and fifteen certificates for page 22. REPORT OF TRAINING COMMITTEE (Continued) the Minimum Course of the Five Year Program. These men are taking this work seriously and should be encouraged and helped in every way possible. Scouting, properly trained Scouting, should spread as rapidly as possible with the negro and especially in Chickasaw Council. We now have under ~ay an American Red Cross First Aid School, which consists of eleven sessions; three were held dpring November, three will be held in December, and the Course finished in January and February of 1934. This school is under the leadership of Dr. Howard Curl, Dr. T. S. Eliot and Mr. Gordon Morris, with an attendance of thirty-five S·couters. Certificates to be ami.rdod in this school will be the. Specialization .Certificate in First Aid and the Red Cross Advanced Certificate. Our recommendations for 1934 are: 1. That such specialization course. as possible be offered to assist Scoutmasters in securing their Scoutmaster's Key, as a good many of them lack a specia:lization course ·to complete their re.quirements. 2. That the Standard Course of the Five Year Program be offered again this year, preceded by the Minimum and Approved courses of this Program. 3. That especial emphasis be placed on securing and training men for Scoutmasters prior to the time they are needed. It is our suggestion that these men be sold on the idea of Scouting, trained in: the Council Schools, and seasoned under some finished Scoutmaster in the Council before they are given a troop to ho.ndle. ·Respectfully submitted, TRAINING COMMITTEE By~Y.£~.J~L ~-· Page 23. CHICK.A.SAW COUNCIL, B. S. A. ANNUAL MEETING,, DECEMBER 5, 1933 * * ... * Jl. E P 0 R T O F TR 0 0 P ORGANIZATJON COMMITTEE Your Committee reports that during the year ending December 1, 1933, there were three troops of white Scouts and three troops of colored Scouts or. ganized, These six troops and their sponsoring institutions are as follows: Troop 22 Troop 44 Troop 76 Troop 106 Troop 113 Troop 114 · Longview Heights Civic Club McLean Blvd. Baptist Church Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church First Baptist Church St. John's Baptist Church Lester St. School, Parent-Teacher Assn. The Council now has 59 troops of white Scouts and 11 troops of colored Scouts, a total of 70 troops which is a fair showing for depression times. During the year there has been a snall gain in Scouts, which is very encouraging considering the serious times that we are going through. This comrni ttee has taken the stand during the year that it will be best not to seek to organize ma.ny ··-nt3w··tr:oops but that the committee ts time should be spent strengthening and rehabilitating the old troops and to this end your committee has worked and feels that at this time the troops of the Chickasaw Council are in very excellent condition and in charge of efficient Scoutmasters. In view of the splendid response to Chickasaw Council's drive for funds, the Council is now in fair financial condition and better prepared to go forward than it has been at any time during the :past few years. However, we recommend for 1934 that we go forward slowly and seek to build for stability rather than for numbers and that no new troop be allowed to enter the Council unless the instit~1tion sponsoring the t:r:-oop is in thorough accord with the movement and is -prepared to furnish efficient 1 trained leaders to guide the destiny of.the troop. We are in thorough accord with the Ten Year Program and ~e hope to go forward in 1934 stronger than ever. Respectfully submitted, TROOP ORGANIZATION COMMITTEE ..... ~ .. Page 24. CHICKASAW COUNCIL, B. S. A. ANNUAL MEETING, DECEMBER 5, 1933 * * * ... REPORT OF SCOUT EXECUTIVE Chickasaw Council has had a successful year during 1933. In some ways it has been an outstanding year and in others, not so good. The Court of Honor has set a Council record in the number of Merit Badges awarded, the camping progTam has been carried out splendidly, more Scouts have won their Eagle Badges than in any other year, and more Scouters are actively working ~ith iToops than at any time in the history of the organization. In order to fully appreciate the splendid work the Scouts are doing in winning Merit Badges, it is necessary to compare 1933 with previous years. Merit Badges awarded for year ending December 1, 11 11 11 11 11 " December 1, 11 11 11 11 11 11 December 1, 11 11 11 11 " 11 December 1, 1933 1932 1931 1930 - 2,452 - 2, 114 1, 780 1,150 This is especially gratifying and there is every indication that the Merit Badge progxam will continue to grow. Ca~ Currier held its third annual Jamboree with the largest attendance ·, 1, 175 boys, that we have ever had in camp at one time. It is one of the most enjoyable events in the Council year and is growing in popularity with each year. Mr. Harry Myers, who was Camp Director at Camp Currier from 1925 up until this year, was tal{en sick early in the spring, and Mr. Willard E. Hays was appointed Camp Director in his stead. Mr. l'ey"ers did a very fine piece of work at Camp Currier and Mr. Hays is also doing splendidly. The Council is deeply indebted to V~s. Elizabeth B. Currier for her donation of $200.00 for the use of the camp. Mrs. Currier's continued and generous support and the wonderful contrib~tions she has made to the ca.mp make it possible for the camping activities to progress each yea:r. For the past ten years Chickasaw Council has been a member of the Memphis Communtty Fund, but throu.?;h action of. the Executive Board on September 29th, the Council resigned its membership. A campaign for funds was hurriedly organized to raise a budget of $14, 945. 00. Of this amount $11, 021. 97 was ~ubscribed, or 73.8%. Of the $11,021.97 the cash subscriptions amounted to $5,250.92 or 47,6%. In view of the general financial conditions, I feel this 1,7as a very successful campaign, and I want to thank every man and woman who worked in it, for I do appreciate their fine work and splendid cooperation. The colored division of the campaign raised approxirrately $1,385.00 of their quota of $1, 500. 00, to be used for work among negroes, and they will doubtless go over the top before they have finished. I want to take this opportunity to express my sincere appreciation to every person who contributed to the Boy Scout Fund Campaign. This loyal support makes it possible for the council to continue the Scouting program of cha:racter building and citizenship training for another year, page 25, REPORT OF SCOUT EXECUTIVE (Continued) Because of the Century of Progress, it was decided to reduce the camping season at Ka.mp Kia Kima from ten weeks to eight weeks this yea:r. In spite of this strong competition and the fact that there is a dearth of money among many Scout parents, Kamp Kia Kima had a very successful season and made a mode!'ate profit, Mr. Gordon Sprott, who served as Camp Director, did a very fine job in directing the camp, and I would recommend his appointment for another year. As usual, the Scouts have done some fine community good turns, and I would like to call your attention to some of these which are listed in the report of the Civic Relations Committee. I uant to thank the "Press Scimitar" and 11 The Commercial Appeal11 for the fine publicity which they have given Scouting activities during the past yea:r. Especially do I want to express my appreciation to the 11 Press Scimi tc.~ 11 for the uonderful editorials, about 15 in number, which they published during the financial campaign. Without their help, it would have been a great deal more difficult to raise the amount which was subscribed, On December 1, 1933, the Council had 70 troops and 1,567 Scouts as compared to last year's record of 70 troops and 1, 511 Scouts. It has been difficult to secure troop reregistrations and Scout reregistrations, as financial conditions have made it hard for our Scouts and Sc outers to spare the money. I firmly believe that during the coming year conditions will improve and that we will show a very substantial gain in both troops and Scouts. Sea Scouting reached its highest peak in cruising this year when a number of Scouts of the s. S. s. "Bonita" sailed down the MississipPi to the Gulf. This was by far the most ambitious cruise which has been undertaken by our older boys, and I hope it is a forerunner of a great many more long and short cruises. The Council is indebted to the Memphis Park Commission for again permitting the colored Scouts to hold their camp in Douglass Park. The Park Commission gave us the use of one of the buildings in the Charles Wilson Home, which proved a very splendid camping place. The boys had a wonderful time, and I hope that next yea:r there ~ill be a longer camp, as one week,is not sufficient. Chick.a.saw Council could not have rmde as much progress as it has during these trying times without the fine cooperation and hard work of our Scouters. Many demands have been made on some of them for time that they could ill afford to give, but they have. cheerfully and gladly helped whenever and wherever they could. I want to take this opportunity to thank every man ~vho has tmrked for the Council this year for the sacrifices ma.de and for the real work uhich has b~en done that our Council might give to our boys every opportunity to become better citizens through the advantages of Scouting. I am especially indebted to our President, Mr. A. D. McWhorter, who has so unselfishing and tirelessly given of his splendid ability in planning and v1orking for the betterment of the Council. In planning the work of the Council for 1934 I recommend: pe..ge 26. REPQRT OF SCOUT EXECUTIVE (Continued) 1. That every effort be made to organize at least ten new troops and to organize them on a basis which will be so funda.~entally sound that the troops will progress and give the boys the true worth of Scouting. That two ships of Sea Scouts and two Cub Packs shall also be organized. 2. That we continue to tI'ain our leaders and give them the benefit of a greater knowledge of Scouting, for without training their task is difficult. 3. That another Jamboree be held at Camp cur·rier. 4. That plans be made to secure a larger attendance at Kamp Kia Kina so that a greater percent of our Scouts rray have the benefit of this camp. 5. That increased emphasis be laid on Scouting for negro boys and that we organize new troops wherever the proper leadership can be secured. 6, That the Council secure funds with which to pay the 1932 quota due the National Council. 7. That every effort be made through additional publicity and other means to educate the public and especially the heads of churches and other institutions as to the value of Scout training~ 8, That an Assistant Executive be employed just as soon as fundS will permit. 9. That J. A. Beauchamp be employed to supervise Scouting among negroes. 10. That we continue to lay emphasis on the fact that Scouting is a game and encourage the continued development of the game in God's great outof- doors. Respectfully submitted, JI.

NOTES ON 1955 ANNUAL C.AN!PING REPORT , Before filling .Qgi ~ Camp Report ~' please read the fallowing carefully. These explanations are made so that there may be no possible misunderstanding as to the meaning of the various column headings and as to just ·,0rhat information is desμ:ed. ·As explained in the note above the column headings, Ser, Scout. Cruises, Touring Camps, etc. should be included in the total figures given. Scouts from outsid~ the Council territory, however, should be reported only by the local Council under which. they are registered. 11 Council-Directed Camping". (Col. 1-10) includes "Registered Troops" and 11 Provisional Troops" camping under· conditions where there is a resident Camp Director provided by the Council for the purpose of coordinating the work of several Troops. This heading also includes camping "Under Other Types of Organization11 (col.9-10) wherein should be listed all camping v1hich does not properly belong under the heading of 11 Registered Troops" or "Provisional Troops". We doubt whether there are at the present time, any Council Camps still opera.ting on a 11 mass basis11 , but if it should be the case that your Council has not been able to make this transition, please use the columns under this heading and also please indicate, on a separate sheet if necessary, the reason therefor. "Independent Troop Camping" (col. 11-14) refers to Troops camping entirely on their own without a Council officer or representative residing in the caiap to give direction to the prograrn. It is expected that all such Cf.JilpS are supervised more or less closely by the Council Staff, or through Committee service, through approving plans and camp site and maJ;:ing one or more inspection visits. "Provisional Troops under Camp Leaders" - (col. 6-8) are the Troop units organized for the camp period for those Scouts in the Council-Directed Camp who, for one reason o:r another, are not participating at that particular time in the Camping Program under their ovm Troop leadership as a chartered Troop unit. "Eliminating Duplication11 : in the summary of year-round camping is difficult because of the failure of so many Troops to give the Local Council all of the facts. However, the local Executive is in position to make a more careful appraisal ofthis than can be done independently by the National Office. Analysis may prove that the number of boys getting no camping experience during the year has a direct relation to Scout tenure. Both numbers and percentage (of total membership) are asked for in the report because such statements are so valuable for your own information as well as for National Council records. Information on numbers of Troop Scouters (Volunteers) is requested in addition to Scouter Weeks for the entire Staff (col. 6-7, Troop and General Staff). A hational combined total on these items should indicate the trend toward realization of our Troop Camping objectives. This report should be made in duplicate,the original being sent direct to the National Office and duplicate copy filed in the local Counc:i,l office. LLi'vi:LML L. L.
