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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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. We are deeply indebted to "The Press Scimitar 11 which has given excellent cooperation by publishing a quarter page knmm as "The. Scout Press Sci~i tar 11 once each week. This page is vlidely read by Scouts and Scouters and is of tremendous help to the Council in keeping troops informed of ac:.. tivi ties. tt The Evening Appeal" and "The Commercial Appeal" have also cooperated splendidly by giving neas stories and ~e are especially indebted to "The Eve11ing A:Jpeal 11 for its splendid cooperation during the National Council Meeting. · We are indebted to Mr. C.

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. 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 ** * GA 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: Troop Troop ·Troop Troop '!Toop Troop Troop 18 - A Group of Ci tiz.ens 22 - Lions Club 24 - Wes tmin$ ter Presbyterian Church 28 - St, John's Methodist Church 46 - A Group of Citizens 72 - Bartlett Baptist Church 73 - Lake Cormorant Consolidated School The 4 negro troops and.their sponsors are as follows: ,. 108 - Manassas High School Troop 109 - Congregational Church Troop 110 - Greater Gilfield Baptist Church Troop 111 - St. Jude Baptist Church Tl"'oop Eight troops failed to reJ~egister this year so they were dropped from the Council's record. 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. 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. Twenty-five Scouts held the crowd back during the Southern .Archery Tournament. 10. Distributed posters for Memphis Community Fund, One hundred Scouts distributed 10,000 envelopes of literature during the drive. 11, Distributed posters and Eagle Scouts served as personal guides to the National Staff during the National Convention of the Boy Scouts of Page 5 REPORT OF CIVIC RELATIONS Cm!1MITTEE (Continued) America. 12. Packed and delivere.d baskets for the Good.fellows. 13. Aided the Mayor's Relief Committee by working in the depot sorti~g clothes. 14 •. Put on Flag Demonstration at the Oi--pheum Theater on the Foui·th of J:uly. 15. Served as pages during the Rotary International Convention. 16. Led Armistice Day Parade with approximately 500 Scouts in line. 17. Again served as messengers for the Community Fund, distributing thousands of pieces of literature. 18. Distributed posters for Junior Chamber of Conmerce for charity football game between Southwestern and Spring Hill. 19. :Boy Scout Drum and Bugle Corps marched in Spirit of Christmas Parade. The boys are more than anxious to render service of any kind regardless of inconvenience to themselves, and we can only recommend to our successors that they use their efforts toward finding work of the proper kind for the boys to do.

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.

CHICKASAW COUNCIL, B. S. A. 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. We are deeply indebted to "The Press Scimitar11 which has given excellent cooperation by publishing a quarter page knmm as "The. Scout Press Sci~i tar11 once each week.

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 •. CHICKASAW COUNCIL, B. S. A. 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. 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(~.

The plumbing in the headquarters building was completely installed during t he 1931 season. For the improvement .of Kia Kima. I recommend: l. That the mess hall be reroofed and rescreened as it is in ve-ry bad cond.i ti on • 2. That all the lodges be repaired as to floors and screens. 3. That the fence around the camp proper be re~aired as the cows end pigs belonging to :Sill Sneed roam the camp at will • • 4. That tile handicraft s!1op also be repaired and more benches be installed. 5. That six blankets be purchased for t he Celll!> next year. 6. That one concrete tennis court be built. 7. That a flat bottom boat with cable and pulleys attached be used for the transportation of visitors across t~e river. This will eliminate the possibility of canoes overturning in mid-stream. 8.

Dr. Lester H. Shields v:as by no r.ieans the best doctor t hat we have had a.no. sol:1e trouo le v1as had \7i t :i. him durin(; the early part of the season. T'.aiz, ho\vever, \las stra.i.::htened out and he performed his d·.ities with regularity d.-.:1rinb the rest oi the season. Alvan Tate, director of drama.tics, put on th e best campfire ]?ro~·rams and enterta ir.ments t hat we have had in camp for t ile past three years. Spencer Bell, ca.up ~uarteroaster and bugler, ~erforraed his duties like a veteran and hi'B work iTas I!l.ore t i.ian satisfactory. Bob Carter, mess sergeant, was a very willinc; \'iorker. I believe thc; t he is better ii tted for ot i1er work in camp t !:an he is for the jo·o of mess sergeant. Bob Walls, director of \7ater front, nae responsible for the best season of water activitie s t :1e camp has had in the last three years. Hore b oys were taut;ht to swim and core life savine; av1ards were given this year than befor e. Otis Tucker, Andrew Wray and Fritz Schultz, tribe l eaders, were by no means t he strongest we have ever had but they cooperated to the f·ullest and enjoyed a very successf·tll seaaon as leaders of t .1e Pamlees, Sioux and Iroquois Tribes. I recommend t hat t ile entire staff of t he 19Sl CaLip ·season be returned for the season of 1932. I believe that :Bill Bellarey will be much oetter as mess sergeant as he is fa.-Uliar with all kinds of food and can save us money thro~n t his knowledge. \ Attached pl ease find copies of t :O.e trial balance, inventory, :!;)ro:,;ram, erable"1 re~uirements, menus , used Z'P thi"J°i/. ·- il~::::f Camp Director j Erui:iIO:aY O? s T03E .:aoc?ir "JILLA.RD E.

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. Cities 10,000 Population and Over Towns 2,500 to 10,000 Villages Under 2,500 Open Country Population Scout Total Scout Total Scout Scout Name of Each Units Scouts Income No. Populat'n Units Scouts Income No. Populat'n Units Scouts Income Populat'n Units Scouts Income _, --- -- --- --------- /l>~~_(l.~<) 0 ...; Q./'\"'•'V '-' " J.s3131: ?otf l '-/ 1'j_ ~ 9 31,, :is 9 \J. ~ 0 0 0 C) :1 / \J J 13"'<-J...rX I *Negroes *Negroes *Negroes '.

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 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.

For 1933 we recomme nd: 1. That Scouts continue the good work of former years. 2. That Scouts be urged to be irrmunize d against srrall pox and tYPhoid fever before going to camo each year unless this matter has already been attended to. 3.

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.

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.

A large part of the work of this committee is to decide in :>hich activity Scouts will be nermitted to take :part. This is very necessary in order to prevent the movement from being exploited for private or selfish motives. We have had to refuse rrany requests for the services of Scouting during this year and rrany good turns '.1ere done which are not included in this report. .Among the princirial services rendered are the following: 1. Served in Cotton Carnival~ (a) Ushers in Grand Stand (b) Parade with masks {c) Torch bearers in parade (d) Put on Boston Tea Party (e) Pages at Hotel Peabody (f) Drum and Bugle Cor-9s in parade (g) Sea Scouts as Washington's Soldiers (h) Scout float in parade 2.

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.

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.

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.

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. ' 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 * * * * 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. Respectfully submitted, Page 26. TROOP ORGANIZATION COMMITT~ ~ By Pt1e1r:. n§atM [7 Chairman CHICKASAW COuNClL, :B. S. A. AIDIDAL MEETING, DECEMBER 15, 1932 *·· * ... * REPORT OF SCOU! 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.
