Kia Kima Calls You
- To share the joys of Scouting in the woods, ove1·
the hills, and by the sti·ean1s. Swift canoes await
the thrust of your paddle. Otter Creek with its
pagentry of song birds, b eckons to you. Cool, 1'efreshing waters wash the sandy beach, ever ready
to soothe the hiker's sun-burned skin after a journey through the woods and fields. Co1nfortable
lodges a n d wholes01ne
food await tired hungr y
Scouts. Big Brother Leaders stand ready to help
you achieve the greatest
in Scouting. Twilight is
the signal for the campfire and the council ring'neath the starry sky, offers perfect fellowship.
Health, happiness. th e
thrill of life supren1e are
yours for the seeking, and
KIA Kll\IA
CALLS YOU!
�MOTHER AND
DAD
KIA KIMA, under supc1·vision of
a con1n1ission of
the E x e c u t i v e
Co1nmittee of the
Chickasaw Council, is op e rated
as a part of the service to boyhood of lVIemphis.
Scouts only are eligible.
A Camp Officer always leads special hikes.
Swimming and canoeing are in charge of a strong,
fearless swim1ner. Afte1· passing a rigid exainination, and demonstrating ability to care for others
as well as self, a Scout is permitted to use a canoe.
Because of special instruction, it is a rare occasion
when a boy leaves ca1np before mastering the art
of swi1n1ning.
No idle hours at KIA KIMA. Duties are perfol'med with cheer. Camp without responsibilities
would be none at all. Boys who spend their sumn1el's at KIA KilVIA return more desirous of shouldering home obligations.
As popularly conceived, there is no discipline.
There is morale! Penalties are not needed. Rules
are few. Personal responsibility-the basis of good
citizenship- is the guide to conduct.
Parents are welcome at KIA KIMA. By communicating with Scout Headquarters well in advance it is generally possible to arrange for Mother
I
.
�or Father to spend a few days with thei1· Scout.
\Ye are anxious for you to know KIA KE\IA intimately.
A Scout is Reverent. The Sabbath is observed.
Scouts are expected to use Bible or P1'aye1· Book
daily. Inspirational services are conducted each
Sunday. Special speakers are frequently present.
Scouts the1nselves take active pa1t in services.
Buildings are of the lodge type, and accommodate eight Scouts. Five new stone buildings replace
wooden structures. There is a recreation hall, a
la1·g·e n1ess hall, an office building, a hospital, and
a Chief's lodge.
Vegetables and milk are fr01n the Scout farin.
Supplies are purchased in wholesale quantities.
Thus every item on the menu is under control of the
director, and all chance eliminated. \Vater is supplied by two deep wells. Proper disposal is made of
all refuse. Rigid personal inspection is executed
daily. Lodg es are inspected each morning and
awa1·ds given for excellency. A medical office1· is
on the ca1np staff. You may spend inore Jnoney--you
will never get better service. KIA
KIMA has the
best. No spoiling
or catering to individual whims. Just
a c 1 e a n, wholes01ne, active policy:
The l\Iaking
of A1nericans
�KI A
K I 1\I A
Dedicated to the Development of Boyhood and
the Building of Rugged Citizenship. the I· ountain-H€lad of Genero~ity, Courag-e. Resourcefulness, Skill, Knowledge, Hardihood. Hmnor.
Deep Reverence and Leadership
�ACTIV ITY
SCOUTS, if you
do not want to do
one thing, then do
anothe r! Doings
going on all the
time! There are ,
eight c a n o e s .
\\'hen you de1nonstrate your abiJity
as a canoei st to
Sprott, you can ride to your heart's conten t. "Doc"
Hodg·es will always be on the job, and if you don't
know enough to get out of the sun when it's too hot,
or out of the rain when it's too cold, he will fix you
up!
Jack Hale knows eve1·y nook o v e r t h e
whole countr y round. Go with hi1n, if you wish.
Put your pack upon your back, fill the old cantee njust c01ne back with Jack.
Dink at the mess hall will furnish plenty of
grub. Ever know the thrill of startin g out, for no
place in particular, hiking the whole day long? Did
you ever pitch your tent at night, cook your bacon
on a stick, tell a yarn or so, and then stretch out for
ten hours sleep v.:ith a rock for a pillow? Life won't
be worth a song 'till you do!
Chie.f Craig is a regula r bug on nature study.
One tirne. when he was a leader years ago at KIA
KilVIA, he said: "There is a star I've never seen before." Next few days newspa pers comme nted on
the fact that a new star had been discovered! He
knows 'em all!
�,
Roney- he's the stunt inan. Does everything
fl'01n writing poetry to leading cheel's. Last word
in in1agination. Products of his flexible brain will
clima x 1nany a day with a big show in the recreation hall. B1·ing your fiddle and your bow, cornet
01· saxophone- join in the 1nerri1nent when t he
lights ar e low!
Christie \Yray- "He sure knows his onions,"
som eone said the other day. He will be ther e.
Hiker, canoeist, swhnmer, camper- he will have a
fing er in every pie. He's the Bully Wampus
Cha1np!
HONORS
"Council Scouts"- who are they, what are t heywl}.y? Best answer- do your best and find out for
yourself.
"Emblem Scout ." Measure up to the high standards of KIA KI1\1A, and you will be one.
.
"Lodg e Leader."
Work your head
off- loose inspection inaybe win .
You will have a
chance.
Regular Court

the signal for the campfire and the council ring'neath the starry sky, offers perfect fellowship.
Health, happiness. th e
thrill of life supren1e are
yours for the seeking, and
KIA Kll\IA
CALLS YOU!
MOTHER AND
DAD
KIA KIMA, under supc1·vision of
a con1n1ission of
the E x e c u t i v e
Co1nmittee of the
Chickasaw Council, is op e rated
as a part of the service to boyhood of lVIemphis.
Scouts only are eligible.
A Camp Officer always leads special hikes.
Swimming and canoeing are in charge of a strong,
fearless swim1ner. Afte1· passing a rigid exainination, and demonstrating ability to care for others
as well as self, a Scout is permitted to use a canoe.
Because of special instruction, it is a rare occasion
when a boy leaves ca1np before mastering the art
of swi1n1ning.
No idle hours at KIA KIMA. Duties are perfol'med with cheer. Camp without responsibilities
would be none at all. Boys who spend their sumn1el's at KIA KilVIA return more desirous of shouldering home obligations.
As popularly conceived, there is no discipline.
There is morale! Penalties are not needed. Rules
are few. Personal responsibility-the basis of good
citizenship- is the guide to conduct.
Parents are welcome at KIA KIMA. By communicating with Scout Headquarters well in advance it is generally possible to arrange for Mother
I
.
or Father to spend a few days with thei1· Scout.
\Ye are anxious for you to know KIA KE\IA intimately.
A Scout is Reverent. The Sabbath is observed.
Scouts are expected to use Bible or P1'aye1· Book
daily. Inspirational services are conducted each
Sunday. Special speakers are frequently present.
Scouts the1nselves take active pa1t in services.
Buildings are of the lodge type, and accommodate eight Scouts. Five new stone buildings replace
wooden structures. There is a recreation hall, a
la1·g·e n1ess hall, an office building, a hospital, and
a Chief's lodge.
Vegetables and milk are fr01n the Scout farin.
Supplies are purchased in wholesale quantities.
Thus every item on the menu is under control of the
director, and all chance eliminated. \Vater is supplied by two deep wells. Proper disposal is made of
all refuse. Rigid personal inspection is executed
daily. Lodg es are inspected each morning and
awa1·ds given for excellency. A medical office1· is
on the ca1np staff. You may spend inore Jnoney--you
will never get better service. KIA
KIMA has the
best. No spoiling
or catering to individual whims. Just
a c 1 e a n, wholes01ne, active policy:

ACTIV ITY
SCOUTS, if you
do not want to do
one thing, then do
anothe r! Doings
going on all the
time! There are ,
eight c a n o e s .
\\'hen you de1nonstrate your abiJity
as a canoei st to
Sprott, you can ride to your heart's conten t. "Doc"
Hodg·es will always be on the job, and if you don't
know enough to get out of the sun when it's too hot,
or out of the rain when it's too cold, he will fix you
up!
Jack Hale knows eve1·y nook o v e r t h e
whole countr y round. Go with hi1n, if you wish.
Put your pack upon your back, fill the old cantee njust c01ne back with Jack.
Dink at the mess hall will furnish plenty of
grub. Ever know the thrill of startin g out, for no
place in particular, hiking the whole day long? Did
you ever pitch your tent at night, cook your bacon
on a stick, tell a yarn or so, and then stretch out for
ten hours sleep v.:ith a rock for a pillow? Life won't
be worth a song 'till you do!
Chie.f Craig is a regula r bug on nature study.
One tirne. when he was a leader years ago at KIA
KilVIA, he said: "There is a star I've never seen before." Next few days newspa pers comme nted on
the fact that a new star had been discovered! He
knows 'em all!
,
Roney- he's the stunt inan. Does everything
fl'01n writing poetry to leading cheel's. Last word
in in1agination. Products of his flexible brain will
clima x 1nany a day with a big show in the recreation hall. B1·ing your fiddle and your bow, cornet
01· saxophone- join in the 1nerri1nent when t he
lights ar e low!
Christie \Yray- "He sure knows his onions,"
som eone said the other day. He will be ther e.
Hiker, canoeist, swhnmer, camper- he will have a
fing er in every pie. He's the Bully Wampus
Cha1np!
HONORS
"Council Scouts"- who are they, what are t heywl}.y? Best answer- do your best and find out for
yourself.
"Emblem Scout ." Measure up to the high standards of KIA KI1\1A, and you will be one.

1W~~r7i~~1-IE Opening of I<.ia Kima !
\Vhat a joy·ot1s event in· the
lives of our Scot1ts! On Sattirday, Jt1ne 15th, the first
camp fire \vill be lighted and for ten weeks following
' ·Eagle$ Nest' ' wi'II afford the opportunity of living close
to Nature in one of the finest Scout Camps ih America.
F or the second time in the fourteen years of its history
the can1p has been awarded a Class "A" Certificate by
the N at-ionaJ Department of Camping, Boy Scouts of Ameri.c a. This,
the highest award, is given because of tl1e exceptional advant ages, both
in leadership ancl prograrn, which Kia Kima enjo-y·s.
LocatioTI_;,
Chickasaw Council owns the 166 acres of r.u gged woodland in the foothills of the Ozarks three miles from I-lardy, Ark., on \Vhich Kia Kima is
located. The camp is· built on a bluff overlooking the beautiful Soutl1
Fork of Spring River on a site which is ideal for camping, as it is l1igh, \veil
drained and free from mosqt1itoes. Owing to the height of the bluff
there is no danger from high \Vater at any season of the year. Numerous
arrowheads found in the vicinity indicate tl1is spot was used as a permanent
camp by th·e Indians \Vho formerly .inhabited the reg~on.
Leadership
The C·amp Staff for 1929 is composed of outstanding leaders in Scouting
and Camping, and the Cpuncil is very fortunate in having secured such
exceptional leadership.
Will.ard E. Hays, District Co1n·missione1· of Chickasaw Council .and a
veteran in Scouting, will be the Camp Director. H e is a gradt1ate of the
Camp Leaders Training Scl1ool and under his able supervision
the camp sho.u ld have one of the best years in its history.
Joe Dalstrom, Eagle ScoLtt and J amboree Scout of 1924,
\vill be the Assistant Director and \Vill have charge of Scoutcraft and Activities.
J. D. Evans, Resident PJ1ysician, will s:upervise Camp
Sanitation and Health, \.Vith Ed. Peete as his Assistant.
Ed\vin Dalstrom, Jr., who holds a certificate from the
American Red Cross as a Senior Life Saver, \Vill be
Director of Aqua t ic Sports;
·
Jimmy and Johnn:y· HL1ghes and Jimmy Wilson, all
E agle Scouts, \\rill be Tribe Leaders.
The Mess H.all and Kitchen will be t,tnder the supervision of Jack TL1rner .as Mess Sergeant \Vhich in·
st1res splendid food at all times.
Ma.Lirice Butler \\rill be Director of Dramatics and
Camp Fire Entertainment.
Franklin Kimbrough \Vill be Can1p Quartermaster
and Russell Perrv.. \Vill be Cashier .
The staff p ersonnel is exceptional and assures a
wo11derf ul vacation to every Scout \vho goes to Kia
Kim a.

Waiting for ··siuimming" to Blou;.
C-Water Sports
5 ,,·in1ming is the most popular of the many acti\rities of camp life.
The cool , clear \vaters of the South Fork are of just the right temperatu re
to make bathing delightfull y exhilaratin g and the big, sandy beach is
within a stone's throw of Headquart ers.
"E\ ery Scout A Swim·m er" is a Kia Kima slogan of many years standing and each boy is sho\vn ho\v to take care of himself in the \Vater. Every
precaution is taken to insure safety and S\\limming is not permitted except
during the regular S\\l'imming periods \Vhen expert Life Guards are on duty·.
T he ''Buddy S ystem,·· recommend ed b y the National Departmen t of
Camp ing, is used. Scouts are reqL1ired to ente.r the \vater in pairs and to
sta1· close enough to touch each other during the entire time they are in
the \\rater. This is a splendid safety· measure as each boy is constantlj'
on the lool<o1..1t for the welfare of his ''Buddy."
An area in shallow \Vater is roped off for non-s\vim111ers and boys just
learning to S\Vim. These bo-y·s are taught how to S\vim by· Life Guards and
each boy· must demonstra te his ability to swim fifty· yards before being
allo ,,·ecl in deep \vater.
During the summer a number of aquatic n1eets \vill be held and the
Scouts are afforded plenty of opportunit ies to engage in canoe tilting,
water polo, S\Vi111ming races, canoe races, and other events which help
to rnal<.e camping the i<..ieal vacation .

�{;amp GJ-eonors
Boys become proficient in camping
through their O\.\ln efforts and when they
have passed the required tests they are
a\varded the Camp Emblem \\1 hich may
be worn with the regular Scout Unifor1n.
It is an honor to win a K.K.K. Emblem
and every Scout is proLtd to wear it.
The greatest honor to be won at Kia
Kima is to be elected a Council Scout and
receive an lndiar1 name at a CoLtncil Fire
he.Id somewhere ,in the deep woods near
camp. There are no rules by \Vhich this
honor may be obtained- if a Scout does
his best to I ive up to tl1e Scout Oath and
Law, is industrious and a good camper,
he will quickly be elected by his fello,vs
to a place at the campfire of the Council
Scouts.

1W~~r7i~~1-IE Opening of I<.ia Kima !
\Vhat a joy·ot1s event in· the
lives of our Scot1ts! On Sattirday, Jt1ne 15th, the first
camp fire \vill be lighted and for ten weeks following
' ·Eagle$ Nest' ' wi'II afford the opportunity of living close
to Nature in one of the finest Scout Camps ih America.
F or the second time in the fourteen years of its history
the can1p has been awarded a Class "A" Certificate by
the N at-ionaJ Department of Camping, Boy Scouts of Ameri.c a. This,
the highest award, is given because of tl1e exceptional advant ages, both
in leadership ancl prograrn, which Kia Kima enjo-y·s.
LocatioTI_;,
Chickasaw Council owns the 166 acres of r.u gged woodland in the foothills of the Ozarks three miles from I-lardy, Ark., on \Vhich Kia Kima is
located. The camp is· built on a bluff overlooking the beautiful Soutl1
Fork of Spring River on a site which is ideal for camping, as it is l1igh, \veil
drained and free from mosqt1itoes. Owing to the height of the bluff
there is no danger from high \Vater at any season of the year. Numerous
arrowheads found in the vicinity indicate tl1is spot was used as a permanent
camp by th·e Indians \Vho formerly .inhabited the reg~on.
Leadership
The C·amp Staff for 1929 is composed of outstanding leaders in Scouting
and Camping, and the Cpuncil is very fortunate in having secured such
exceptional leadership.
Will.ard E. Hays, District Co1n·missione1· of Chickasaw Council .and a
veteran in Scouting, will be the Camp Director. H e is a gradt1ate of the
Camp Leaders Training Scl1ool and under his able supervision
the camp sho.u ld have one of the best years in its history.
Joe Dalstrom, Eagle ScoLtt and J amboree Scout of 1924,
\vill be the Assistant Director and \Vill have charge of Scoutcraft and Activities.
J. D. Evans, Resident PJ1ysician, will s:upervise Camp
Sanitation and Health, \.Vith Ed. Peete as his Assistant.
Ed\vin Dalstrom, Jr., who holds a certificate from the
American Red Cross as a Senior Life Saver, \Vill be
Director of Aqua t ic Sports;
·
Jimmy and Johnn:y· HL1ghes and Jimmy Wilson, all
E agle Scouts, \\rill be Tribe Leaders.
The Mess H.all and Kitchen will be t,tnder the supervision of Jack TL1rner .as Mess Sergeant \Vhich in·
st1res splendid food at all times.
Ma.Lirice Butler \\rill be Director of Dramatics and
Camp Fire Entertainment.
Franklin Kimbrough \Vill be Can1p Quartermaster
and Russell Perrv.. \Vill be Cashier .
The staff p ersonnel is exceptional and assures a
wo11derf ul vacation to every Scout \vho goes to Kia
Kim a.

Waiting for ··siuimming" to Blou;.
C-Water Sports
5 ,,·in1ming is the most popular of the many acti\rities of camp life.
The cool , clear \vaters of the South Fork are of just the right temperatu re
to make bathing delightfull y exhilaratin g and the big, sandy beach is
within a stone's throw of Headquart ers.
"E\ ery Scout A Swim·m er" is a Kia Kima slogan of many years standing and each boy is sho\vn ho\v to take care of himself in the \Vater. Every
precaution is taken to insure safety and S\\limming is not permitted except
during the regular S\\l'imming periods \Vhen expert Life Guards are on duty·.
T he ''Buddy S ystem,·· recommend ed b y the National Departmen t of
Camp ing, is used. Scouts are reqL1ired to ente.r the \vater in pairs and to
sta1· close enough to touch each other during the entire time they are in
the \\rater. This is a splendid safety· measure as each boy is constantlj'
on the lool<o1..1t for the welfare of his ''Buddy."
An area in shallow \Vater is roped off for non-s\vim111ers and boys just
learning to S\Vim. These bo-y·s are taught how to S\vim by· Life Guards and
each boy· must demonstra te his ability to swim fifty· yards before being
allo ,,·ecl in deep \vater.
During the summer a number of aquatic n1eets \vill be held and the
Scouts are afforded plenty of opportunit ies to engage in canoe tilting,
water polo, S\Vi111ming races, canoe races, and other events which help
to rnal<.e camping the i<..ieal vacation .

Ten splendid canoes are avaUable at al l times

camp activities. Rigid rules govern the use of

{;amp GJ-eonors
Boys become proficient in camping
through their O\.\ln efforts and when they
have passed the required tests they are
a\varded the Camp Emblem \\1 hich may
be worn with the regular Scout Unifor1n.
It is an honor to win a K.K.K. Emblem
and every Scout is proLtd to wear it.
The greatest honor to be won at Kia
Kima is to be elected a Council Scout and
receive an lndiar1 name at a CoLtncil Fire
he.Id somewhere ,in the deep woods near
camp. There are no rules by \Vhich this
honor may be obtained- if a Scout does
his best to I ive up to tl1e Scout Oath and
Law, is industrious and a good camper,
he will quickly be elected by his fello,vs
to a place at the campfire of the Council
Scouts.
GJood
The Camp Menu has been ca ref Lill")'
prepared by 1v1r. R. G. Ramsay of the

In the foothills of the Arkansas Ozarks live 540 acres of scouting adventure 30 weeks of Scouting program packed into one week of boys got summer camp, a place where boys Gods can work on rank advancement over 30 merit badges venture to a 30-mile hiking trip or a 50-mile canoe trip. It's called, Yakima. That's the Indian zone word for nest of the Eagles. Boys Scouts have been capping here since 1916, to work on their Eagle Rock.
Well, in the summer. And this is your invitation to join them and put into practice. The 12 points of the scout law, each day is an experience for the scouts at kinema.
They may be going, ready to attempt a mile swim or finish work on another merit badge. Kaya "kemi is the place for all this and more with a lake and river a shooting range for a rifle shotgun and archery camp fire arena climbing a repelling tower non-denominational chapel trading posts and a newly renovated co-course.
One of those goals.
Voice going, is to help the boy grow in moral strength and character. The "Kiche a camp staff is composed of experienced scouting professionals who make it their job to give each boy scout the best summer camping experience they can that includes teaching swimming to those scouts, who have a master those skills yet instructing merit badges during the day, providing entertainment and night and making sure the troop travels on a... Well, in stump.
There are three distinct camping experiences at "guatema camp Osage camp Cherokee and Ozark venture Base Camp Osage provides three meals a day, in a screened in dining all for troops who would rather spend their time working on other areas of their scouting skills.
The dining hall staff takes care of the food and clean up afterwards.
Camp Cherokee provides the groceries for a complete meal three times a day, for the scouts themselves to cook by patrol or troop method scouts could to practice, they're cooking and clean up skills.
Campos age, as the South Fork of the spring river running through its Northwest perimeter here, scouts can swim fish boat canoe and enjoy all the pleasures of cool water on a hot summer day camp. Cherokee is placed around John a cooper lake with all the same water sports along with fishing piers and boat docks each calf has their own water safety staff, so both water fronts can be opened at the same time each week during summer camp, season an honor troop is selected amongst all the troops attending that we honor troops have to show scout spirit good will complete a service project and have good attendance record to all activities and so on.
One of the choices of Kaya KEM is camp site number 13. Al Canon It's a special camp site for special needs. We are very afraid they're accessible for wheelchairs, and closer to the restaurant facilities and it makes it really helpful because they have electrical outlets, here and we have one young man that needs to sleep with oxygen at night time, and that's a little bit... So it would be, if we were just out in the woods somewhere and didn't have that kind of accessibility. So it's a good camp site. And I was strongly encourage any troop who does have special needs, that this would be the kind of place they wanna come to that. The second goal of boycotts is participating citizenship from the flag raising following breakfast to senior patrol leaders meeting as to service projects for the honor troop to vespers to the flag lowering after dinner scouts are reminded of their duty to God, in country.
George Lambert We usually prevent a scout from play in, and fire, but this is a constructive effort here where they were working in fire to the change a piece of metal in from its original source. Something that they have in their mind they wanna make it, you can see it in their face. Bristol inch piece of Rod and any year old can take the option and we at in this teenage and with one hand, they can, they can shake that mental where A they didn't realize how plastic or metal, with the come... We properly heat in.
So I don't know that at a pretty close.
One of the other popular things they do in addition to metal work is the mouth throwing and that's a thing they look forward to each day. It's one of the skills you use back in the fair days is similar to horseshoes and it's just a competition and there is skill in a little hand... A coordination and if it's a lot of fun especially is, you've seen those people breaking out the cards they Nicolson! There, and I see it's so... Oh, good deal.
They have some of the truths that come back to second and just to throw the pot I don't mean to get a... It wouldn't be summer camp without singing camp fires camp fire skins games, contests, friendly true competition a water "meanest-able and a water festival, a big part of Boy Scout summer camp is earning marry badges to get closer to either ran her over. 30. different merits are offered scouts can average earning five merit badges in one week for younger scouts. There is the pioneering program designed to give them a fast start, in the tender for second class and first class ranks hard, they can get most of the requirements done for more than just one rank. This gives them a big boost towards advancing in a race all in just one week.
The waterfront also provide the chance to earn the Boy Scouts of America lifeguard certificate and the mile swim, patch. Not an opportunity that comes along, often high. A cement is one of the oldest yet, recently renovated and expanded Coat courses of any Boy Scout camp.
Robert Allen Basically, what is supposed to do is teach teamwork, and leadership, and communication skills, to the boys where they would give them an element and their objective is to get through it.
And I hopefully by the end of the week there's a better feeling of camaraderie, and stuff like that.
How do you go about developing that team work and communication at when you give them an element? There are different ways for instance, every group is different. You might have one boy who's quiet and then... And stand out, this woman. I wanna get them by.
So, basically, what we can do is like making that guy on that's a good trade. You have one guy who he taught to me I ate or wants to take up all the time. And can you, err, we like to Andre or whatever. So then everybody else has to take over the stepson. The goals of project code are to build leadership self-esteem decision-making trust and teamwork. This is accomplished by progressing through a series of increasingly physical and mentally challenging exercises that require teamwork and cooperation to complete, we start out with the vertical play Pan, which is just a series of obstacles, as you move up and you go into the multi-in Traverse which is the ropes that hang down and you move from rope to rope along that cable and then you go into the Gap step, which is four foot two platforms on the floor for the part, and you step from one of the other, when you go into the one wire high attention to verse which is just a single cable and you hold on to rope and get from one into the other, I believe that's 25-foot long or something like that, and then you go into the sky walk which is the loop it, you go from like the lip and there are four of them out there, and that's probably... I believe the skywalk... Is probably the most narrating a fan that we have. It is open to Scouts 13 years or older, but any scout can get a taste of cold in the afternoon during summer camp.
If canoeing is bad or your liking cache offers a 50-mile canoe trip on the 11 point river in southern Missouri first of all, just the physical challenge of canoeing, that are, they're out, they have to carry their own water and stuff like that, everything they need for the trip.
Walter Hoehn I carry dehydrated food. And during the course of that trip, they do several different fun activities they're saying a 0 foot spring.
It's kind of a interesting... It's called Blue hole is a round Spring about 50 foot in diameter. I guess they... So, in that it's about 30 degrees just about the freeze it's really cold and there's also a case usually end up doing is blocking on that trip. So, there's several... And I sit on the way, a region up there in the week, they start off by coming down here, and learning the horses night that they'll take the horse to rush you down and settle it up by their self, that the claim the style had a feed the horses and know how to take care of a horse and how to kinda see some of the sicknesses when the horse gets sick and how to be able to take care of it if they need to. Are you gonna do a good job, it's really good.
Alex Person They've got great instructors and it puts a new twist when they've never done anything like this before, and inspire somebody. I really don't like the CAM want to do it more and more.
We want to maintain that interest, but we also want to develop the older scouts in the vestments way provides more leadership skills or surges. And the ring he kills as they have already.
It also gives them an opportunity to better the slate and the really gives them to about thing to do in the out of doors that were counting that year, the each camp site of GMA in both camps, Osage and camp Cherokee have outdoor latrines equip in a community sink in a cold water shower. In addition, the 23-cap sites of both camps within walking distance of restrooms complete with hot showers and flush toilets.
Or just thank you that you brought us up here today and that we would be to some of your word and to listen to what you want us to do. If I lost you pressure snapped him. And so I got... Ken Kimble Is a non-denominational organization, but at the same time, we all believe in one prime being and one God and they'll be able to come up here and they'll probably read some scripture or just speak about the principles of scouting and how that relates to the supreme being and the belief in an after-life.Vespers are held each week of summer camp at the non-denomination will go lightly. All based chapel as scouts are encouraged at all times to practice their faith in their own fashion.
Elaine boys go on America join the adventure for Cosimo.

So, So I tattooed on A... What are you doing the summer in the mountains of Northern episode within the set. But in diverse landscape, lie an extra ordinary in an experience.
We are located in Hardy, Arkansas, which is about the and-a-half hours north west of Memphis can state and we're in the food hall on Oakmont, which gives us a lot of different... My geography and to port entering place like this and we... You got a beautiful life. You got a river dates on like in you, or the way you gonna grow in you feel various types of "Harty want find wells in your country, and it's just a place that bottom and get lost in God's world, and you go in more, it's a beautiful place, it's a chance to get out of town and out in the woods and then the oars in the mountains for a week, a week at a time and just have a great time and spend time with your friends and your truth and your control and concentrate on scale.
I came a Scout Reservation on property has two very distinct camping experiences.
The first one is called Camp page, which main characteristic of that camp is at the scouts eat in a dining hall.
And that gives me a little bit more opportunity to spend time working on merit badge classes. It's really designed for troops that do a lot of high adventure activities and the office in like a little bit of a break during the summer.
Their water is actually on the South Fork River, which is kind of interesting that many camps have water funds on its... Our other camp camp Cherokee is very exclusive, because the scouts, and that can practice the patrol method and cooking.
They took all the one-off practice launching dinner.
And if you're really looking for your true you build on their patrol experience and the portal scale in Camp Charity we've been on the traditions is 19-60 it, we believe that counts or camp believe in supporting our council can rest them also the great program, the available camp a good TA around the genitals, to get married, but you to get the adventure of coming up here to the mountains from the flatland, of the Delta where we're Fontaine program both for the uh, younger cops coming into the truth. And for the older custom II out on the climbing too they have a new track program in Los plating intern and these things are field will the Vos, and that man Ronald come up or... Well there's all different sorts of programs are available for staff of different ages.
We have a Trail Blazer, program, which design specifically the boys had just enter the scouting program and the skills that they learn fundamental skills that they will need to become a first class cat with the probable program is for brand new boys in vocal program. They're usually going into the six-gun they've done very little with their trips, and we work on tender second class and first class requirement, and it's giving them a taste of the skills that they're going to be perfecting and they get in Voices.
The boys seemed to be enjoying themselves. We haven't closed to board them so they have a lot of fun and I learn about their life at a T, and I let her take care.
We'll go to a... And I, over. Like they learn about cooking.
A lot of different skills, just a little bit about everything that they will eventually be perfecting than our second and third year program is called Our Adventure Quest, programs, so that includes recourse. A water skiing program or climbing school, which is a climbing program that we offer as well, as the golf Atacama is a great place to come to whether you're in the market for the first year, scouts who are just starting on their skills second or third year campers that are looking for a little bit more adventure for your older scout don't really wanting a high Advent your experience centrally located and accessible, not only to the south but throughout the Midwest as well. The adventure provided a track groups from over 1000 miles away while the programs and dedicated staff bring them back year after year.
So Marianne, here Kaesong life-saving caning growing small boat sailing to be a lifeguard to be, say mile swim the 50 mile or foot astronomy nature space elation Environmental Science, the other geology left town amphibian study mammal study it and "Willman agent weather for is try to on water conservation, faster leather works pottery wood carving camping cooking India law or entering pier wariness survival back back in emergency preparedness, the first day, archery rifle shooting not on shooting personal fitness athletic board of animal veterinarian in enforcement ship water scene, Motor boating and climbing.
So, can accomplish more than just any marriage. What they come here to do is to learn different scanning skills, but what they do is go home with a bill sense of accomplishment in themselves and working with their body living in the outdoors to week in all different types of invites. Sound a little bit more comfortable and some a little bit left comfortable to add to the town.
This is probably the perfect opportunity at Katia to advance on an accelerated pace of your new scale.
The chance "petipa off 10 de-foot second class, first class requirements all within the same week and accomplished quite a bit. They offer Marie vegans here for the older scouts that you probably don't have the opportunity to work on on an ongoing or regular Baines.
Of course, the camp sites are a traditional scout camp site with a two-man law camp, which in the U-
Sally a right thing. Because you can say if you're a comes having background and it's the same experience. So your grandfather Buena... The facilities here are top-notch, and just improved from year-to-year cacao new buildings, new activity areas, new high adventure programs.
The construction and improvement is just ongoing and seems to get better every year that we come that I've been telling her some shoes on 19, so I see improve Al. Yes, we have a great, great guiding Hall facility in Hana, commentary checker charge. But the staff is the well-trained very ready to have a very large number stance of comment to each other. Boys. The facilities aren't really appropriate to the program that we're trying to run in our co.So you, they are led by the kind of kids that they have leading to stay always disciplining peer for the program, and they all know are committed to a pass play program. All the stuff to come here.
So the program is good in the fluid because the staff is it peer? We're real proud of the fact that we're able to draw on best cuts that the chicken house, based out of Memphis, to offer as well, as our international staff members and staff members from all across the country and they have a tendency to really get into the program and care about it, offices work always in communication with on it, 'cause they really get involved in the scouts and build relationships where I'm gonna kind of need that. They can keep up with them for years to come.
We usually have three to four staff trainings in Memphis, prior to coming to Giacomo at the scouts that are going to be staff members. Get the camp, they check in a week early, and we spent a whole week not only cleaning out the camp or getting ready for summer, but spend Coles hours training to make sure that their teaching skills are really where they need to be, that they understand the aims and goals of the Boy Scout Program, and really spend a lot of time talking about customer service and knowing what's important about the scout and the scout master. Because we wanna come back year after year just education staff as to do traditions carry to overcome back apart, from the original old contestant on the early 1900 we watched staff, and to grow and become very strong. And get a... Come back to you after year.
Nothing that's... We all enjoy about the co-at a young man to start out, 15 years old on staff and still I went to LA 20, and the things that the college did a test per...
I think that the Chief Council here at "chikuma has really combined the tradition of the traditional Boys Scout camping experience, with the...
I enter the future, and I think that those two things together on what Maine to in addition to the Maria Ange opportunities that we have for first and second year campers we offer a high adventure program, which is really highlighted by a program that we call 'project Co-And cop stands for challenging outdoor personal experience and the press Project COPE is to build self-confidence teamwork, leadership, if you got communication skills, problem solving skill for individuals as well as groups. And what they do is they'll come to this course and spend the whole week there either in morning or afternoon session and they come together as individuals from all different types of troops, and the idea is that at the end of the week, they come together as one big grill the way that they do that is by presenting different mind games and challenges for them on the first couple of days that eventually get them on to cable systems that are about two feet off the ground. Different challenges like putting a tire over a giant "Helicon or passing teammates through a portal, which is a tire suspended in some trees.
And as the group progresses and the communication skill is built eventually they pin themselves to spend in our cables 40 feet in the air holding each other with climbing reps.And the idea is that by the end of the week, the boys felt challenged, and he's had some personal development, he also made a lot of friends and learn how to work with a variety of different people help us an experience that teaches our boys to work together as a team teaching them to communicate gives them a lot of self-topic playing games and working on the high course here also allows that risk that all of us feel to be met here.
It's an all-round experience that causes them to learn things that then we can transfer over that they can use and scouting in real life, but it's also a lot of fun on degrees, that really makes it work.
And I guarantee you that you'll have some personal growth take place, but still be the most fun that you've ever had growing.
We have a really interesting place on our property on our highest point mountain overlooks the south work River, and that's called an EAR amount of it. An experience much like the... This dad have when they go to film on top is A... The outpost also serves as base for the co-ed program is a "interba the adventure based on several different programs. Two of the highlighted ones is a program we call the out program, it's the or ultimate track and what Scouts adventures get to do on this program. I spend one day fly fishing and world class trout waters just west of our camp the next day, they spend rock climbing at some fantastic rock climbing, spots and Western AC and soft. Then they spend a day and a half, canoeing on the buffalo National River, which is actually prefaced by the National Park Service, and then they spend a whole day soloing and cases which are now most in this area. Another program that's very popular in our art venture base is the 50 ml to commute scouts go up the 11-point river in southern Missouri and spend 30 miles on the river and 20 miles on a back back and we have to out and adventurers go through this program every week then. So I think the thing that's most special to me about Pete, relationships that we built as a staff with each other and with the leaders and the youth that come here and we always remember their names, and that's real important because we're not so concerned with getting a man, and getting them out in the weeks time and making sure that they earn as many merits, they can.
We're really here to make sure that they have a quality experience in the boys in a car.
The special 'bout take moves, it's a beautiful ocean mountains. The climate awesome in so many programs hit offered to all ages of scouts from 11 of even leaders will come is just a place for Brotherhood and Pete here every year just to get away from on the time.
No, I began home. The real one place, just hang out in a... One, it's really fun, and I do the tensioning the thing that you'll find about kakashi the people that come here had been coming here for years, and once you come to Ocean your fun.
I think the real go to this camp is the fact that the staff really cares about the campers and they're very committed to making sure that their voice, have a good experience to get to spend time with your troop and your patrol and get away from home and be in the mountains and in the press are with rivers and lakes and all of the things that just make cognac a special place.
Oh, I can use this one. groupies. All math and your other but... So I tool for more information, contact or China Council at 171 South Hollywood Memphis, Tennessee, 38-11 to about one in 901-327-4193, all the internet and Chickasaw, be done.

�ANNUAL REPORT ..
1 9 2 2.
The yeat just closi.ng mis been by far the most satisfac.tory in every
respect since the writer .took ch."trge of the· Court of Ho.nor in December 1919 •.
The general merale ·or t.he entire· organizati·on has been on the up grade since
the summer of 1921 •. · The splendid co-operation 0cf. my associates. has made ;
it a real :pleasure and the recent change froni af.ternpan J;l'leetings ;h eveni~s·~ ..
we find to be a .great improvement. · Through the courtesy of the Bu1!ders
·· ·
Exchange,.· we have a splendid place for our meetings, which will be further. ·. ·
improved when their new quarters are· opened. During the past yefJ,r the ·ccru:rt
has held twelve monthly meetings which have been attended by i07 .scout·s~
We hav.e awarded 237 Merit }3adges in::duding three Life, three Stai- and;:two •·
Eagle badges, the latter going. to Christie ,Woray, Troop 14 and John Hfife~ > .
Troop 26.
Thirty-three .scouts qualiffed for merit badges t'or pi.e first· ·
time·
.This record contrasts with a total of eight new Mer'it :Badge $.g.o'uts
last year and a total of 76. badges including l. Star &nd 1 Eagle.
:Sesides ·
the above,37 scouts ha~e been confirmed First Class Scouts. . ·While this. ·
···in its elf is not a rec.ord to be pz:~rticularly proud of in a Council .the .si~e: ·· ·
of ours, still it marks a big .impr.ovement over· the past ·tv;o years and. shows::,·>.
that we are definitely on the road to greater 8,chievment•
.
We are proud of the record made by our Fir•st Class Exami~lng Board.:
This work· ·,vas. taken over by the Court or' Honor late in 1 921, and began t0 ·
ftin:ction in J1.'fnuary of this year.
Our first efforts were most O.i~c:om-ag~ .~
ing,. but through the persistant efforts of' :Mr~. John M.ills Murray, ·-.9.s\>D.irec;tor·, .
and the loyalty of our exain.iners reorolted from the Merit Badge Se6tj\#$.~ ~ . .·.
now have a most efficient organization which w~. believe .fs in no sm~H.: way. • · ·.·
respons·ible for the vigorous life now being shown by practically e;~e'f..y ~I"oop!
under the '.3'..1uncil. ·
·
·
1
To do justice to those troops who have b~en doing·~~.good work and in.
hope of stimulating those whose recprds are not so gooa;i~ I give you the
standing by troo~s for 1922.

ANNUAL REPORT ..
1 9 2 2.
The yeat just closi.ng mis been by far the most satisfac.tory in every
respect since the writer .took ch."trge of the· Court of Ho.nor in December 1919 •.
The general merale ·or t.he entire· organizati·on has been on the up grade since
the summer of 1921 •. · The splendid co-operation 0cf. my associates. has made ;
it a real :pleasure and the recent change froni af.ternpan J;l'leetings ;h eveni~s·~ ..
we find to be a .great improvement. · Through the courtesy of the Bu1!ders
·· ·
Exchange,.· we have a splendid place for our meetings, which will be further. ·. ·
improved when their new quarters are· opened. During the past yefJ,r the ·ccru:rt
has held twelve monthly meetings which have been attended by i07 .scout·s~
We hav.e awarded 237 Merit }3adges in::duding three Life, three Stai- and;:two •·
Eagle badges, the latter going. to Christie ,Woray, Troop 14 and John Hfife~ > .
Troop 26.
Thirty-three .scouts qualiffed for merit badges t'or pi.e first· ·
time·
.This record contrasts with a total of eight new Mer'it :Badge $.g.o'uts
last year and a total of 76. badges including l. Star &nd 1 Eagle.
:Sesides ·
the above,37 scouts ha~e been confirmed First Class Scouts. . ·While this. ·
···in its elf is not a rec.ord to be pz:~rticularly proud of in a Council .the .si~e: ·· ·
of ours, still it marks a big .impr.ovement over· the past ·tv;o years and. shows::,·>.
that we are definitely on the road to greater 8,chievment•
.
We are proud of the record made by our Fir•st Class Exami~lng Board.:
This work· ·,vas. taken over by the Court or' Honor late in 1 921, and began t0 ·
ftin:ction in J1.'fnuary of this year.
Our first efforts were most O.i~c:om-ag~ .~
ing,. but through the persistant efforts of' :Mr~. John M.ills Murray, ·-.9.s\>D.irec;tor·, .
and the loyalty of our exain.iners reorolted from the Merit Badge Se6tj\#$.~ ~ . .·.
now have a most efficient organization which w~. believe .fs in no sm~H.: way. • · ·.·
respons·ible for the vigorous life now being shown by practically e;~e'f..y ~I"oop!
under the '.3'..1uncil. ·
·
·

To do justice to those troops who have b~en doing·~~.good work and in.
hope of stimulating those whose recprds are not so gooa;i~ I give you the
standing by troo~s for 1922.

�The information asked for in the following reports is essential to the National Council in its task
of serving your council and helping you to create and maintain proper standards of efficiency.
Please see that this report is forwarded to the National Council NOT LATER THAN JANUARY
31st, 1924, and as much earlier as possible, so that your charter for 1924 may be issued without delay.
Please answer EVERY QUESTION and give EXACT FIGURES AND DATA. Estimates should

If not, state reasons------------------------~------------
Have formal applications for affiliation been filed with the National Council, for each?
NoTE: Formal affiliation should be applied for by a community only when such affiliation will make possible
greater service to the community by the local council. If the service can be given just as effectively without formal
affiliation then there should be no affiliation. A local council should not accept the affiliation of a community at such a
distance as to make difficult proper supervision by the council of the work in that community or which would necessitate considerable traveling by the boys in that community.
NoTE: Experience has demonstrated that in a territory having a population of 100,000 or more, or in a county,
or larger area, the best results can be secu~hrough some form of disti~anization under the local council.

Dear Friend: Your attentio n is called to an error in the
printing of the local council annual report blank,
copies of which have recently been mailed. you. On
page 8 under "Regist ration Statisti cs", you will
note that the hes.dings of the fifth and sixth columns
are identica l• both rc;iading "Total Number Register ed
on Dec. 31, 1923. 11 The sixth column, namely, the one
just to the right of the doulJle vertica l line, should
read 1922, rather than 1923 as printed •.
Will you kindly make· this correcti on on your
copies'?

NoTE: Formal affiliation should be applied for by a community only when such affiliation will make possible
greater service to the community by the local council. If the service can be given just as effectively without formal
affiliation then there should be no affiliation. A local council should not accept the affiliation of a community at such a
distance as to make difficult proper supervision by the council of the work in that community or which would necessitate considerable traveling by the boys in that community.
NoTE: Experience has demonstrated that in a territory having a population of 100,000 or more, or in a county,
or larger area, the best results can be secu~hrough some form of disti~anization under the local council.

OF SECOND CLASS COUNCILS
Dear Friend: Your attentio n is called to an error in the
printing of the local council annual report blank,
copies of which have recently been mailed. you. On
page 8 under "Regist ration Statisti cs", you will
note that the hes.dings of the fifth and sixth columns
are identica l• both rc;iading "Total Number Register ed
on Dec. 31, 1923. 11 The sixth column, namely, the one
just to the right of the doulJle vertica l line, should
read 1922, rather than 1923 as printed •.
Will you kindly make· this correcti on on your
copies'?
Sincere ly yours,

Have formal applications for affiliation been filed with the National Council, for each? ,,._/t"""·"'"l/i.,_·~=.e,"'"-.,l'"""""'M~----
NoTE: Formal affiiiation should be· applied for by a community only when such affiliation will make possible
greater service to the community by the local council. If the service can be given just as effectively without formala
affiliation then there should be no affiliation: . A local council should not accept the affiliation of a community at such
distance as to make difficult proper supervision by ·tne council of the work in that community or which would necessitate considerable traveling by the boys in that community.
NOTE: , Experience has demonstrated that in a territory having a population of 100,000 or more, or in a county.
or larger area, the best results can be secured through some form of district organization under the local council.

NoTE: Formal affiiiation should be· applied for by a community only when such affiliation will make possible
greater service to the community by the local council. If the service can be given just as effectively without formala
affiliation then there should be no affiliation: . A local council should not accept the affiliation of a community at such
distance as to make difficult proper supervision by ·tne council of the work in that community or which would necessitate considerable traveling by the boys in that community.
NOTE: , Experience has demonstrated that in a territory having a population of 100,000 or more, or in a county.
or larger area, the best results can be secured through some form of district organization under the local council.

Have formal applications for affiliation been filed with the National Council, for

NoTE: Formal affiliation should be applied for by a community only when such affiiiati,bn will make possible
greater service to the community by the local council. If the service can be given just as effectively without formal
affiliation then there should be no affiliation. A local council should not accept the affiliation of a community at 'such a
distance as to make difficult proper supervision by the council of' the work in that community or which would necessitate
considerable traveling by the boys in that community.
NoTE: Experience has demonstrated that in a territory having a population of 100,000 or more, or in a county,
or larger area, the best results can be secured through some form of district organization under the local council.

NoTE: Formal affiliation should be applied for by a community only when such affiiiati,bn will make possible
greater service to the community by the local council. If the service can be given just as effectively without formal
affiliation then there should be no affiliation. A local council should not accept the affiliation of a community at 'such a
distance as to make difficult proper supervision by the council of' the work in that community or which would necessitate
considerable traveling by the boys in that community.
NoTE: Experience has demonstrated that in a territory having a population of 100,000 or more, or in a county,
or larger area, the best results can be secured through some form of district organization under the local council.

�QHIOKA.SAW COUNCIL, :B. S. A.
ANNUAL MEETING DEC. 13, 1928.
Report of Activities comnittee
*** ****
I feel that my report tonight should deal more with the
functioning of the troops and Scout Leaders than it should with the
more spectacular services that the boys have rendered during the past
year. It has been my pleasure and privilege during the past year to
have visited the ID.:1.jO:r.ity of the troops in Chickasaw council, and I
feel that it is my duty tp report to this organization the exact conditions that I have found.
I find an excellent spirit manifest in all the boys, and
in the majority of the scoutmasters an ambition to better serve the
troops they are leading. However, for some unknown reason, at the
present time there is a great dearth in scout L~aders, and we have at
the present time six troops without scoutmasters. This lack of scoutmasters is not due to any fault of the Executive or the Head.qu.artersr
staff, but is due to the neglect of the parent institution and its
failure to meet-its obligations. We have just completed a Scout Leaders• Training school, and I feel sure that some of these vacalicios
will be filled by men who completed this school.
It is my sincere belief that hereafter no man should be
commissioned as scoutmaster who has not attended one of the scout Leaders' Training Schools, or who will in the near future attend one; and,
furthermore, that no institution should be granted the privilege of
sponsoring a Boy scout Troop unless they can to the satisfaction of the
Troop Qrganhation committee show that they intend to furnish a competent scoutmaster and a qualified Troop committee, and who, in the case
of vacancies of a scoutmaster or Troop corrmi tteeman, will fill fro.m
their own ranks, with the aid and cooperation of the scout Executive,
the positions vacated. To my mind troop permanency is a far greater
need than new troop organization. V{hat we need in scouting today is
quality, not quanity; efficiency, rather than numerical strength. And,
so I say that we should carefully scrutinize each application from an
organization for a charter for a Boy Scout Troop.
To the majority of you men who are not so familiar with
the ]oy scout work, I cannot in the short time I have tonight explain
what it means to have an untrained scout Lead.er in charge of boys Who
are seeking to adopt the Boy scout program to their own use. As concisely as I can put it, it is this: All untrained leader means dissat~
isfied, restless, and mischevious boys, who in a very short period of
time will be lost to the :soy scout program and who will have missed ..
the greatest thing that scouting teaches, and a boy twelve years old
once lost can never be regained. That is the penalty of untrained
leadership, or the absolute lack of leadership. ,And, so I say to you

11ntlemen here tonight that in scouting the biggest name of a citizen of
11.h city means nothing unless that name is coupled with the desire to
work.
'I1he time has come for us to supply men who are willing to give
l1adership rather than men who have gained for themselves a big name in
'bu.•iness~ This is not a utopian idea 1 btJ,t a cold; practical business
1tateli.lent, and these ideas will be put into force under the new constitution that has been adopted here tonight, and let me ask that you all
give 100 percent cooperation i~ putting across this new idea in scouting.
I feel sure that under the reports of the various standing
committees you will hear of the many meritorious activities the scouts
of Memphis have entered into, and so here let me merely name them in the
order. in which they came during the year~ and leave to the other gentlemen the privilege of enlarging on this subject:
.Anniversay Week
Merit Eadge Exposition
Placed flags for community Fund and removed same after
COlill!IUl.lity Fund Drive
Assisted in the office of the Coomunity Fund
Ushered at National conference of social Workers at
Auditoriuo for one week
Ushered for Izaak Walton League
Helped Memphis park corm::iission in Halloween celebration
Armistice J)ay parade
Assisted in unloading cars at "shower" given by the
Lighthouse Mission
.
Distributed posters for Shelby County Tuberculosis society
~oodfellows snnta Claus Club
scout Lenders' Round Table
Eeing responsible for all of the activities of the council, I
Wllllt at this tiue to cor:nend cost heartily the efficient manner in which
our Executive has handled the affairs of the council and the splendid
spirit that he has developed az;.1ong the leaders m:i.d the scouts in this
cor:imuni ty.
Nineteen hundred and twenty-eight is gone, the records of that
year are written, and now it is tiue for us to turn our eyes towards the
possibilities of.1929 to see what outstanding services we can be of during thatyear and what part the scouts a.re going to play in their community. In 1929 scouting will be twenty-one yea.rs old, and in comnemoration
of this event there is being held in England sor:ie time in the latter part
of the su..'T.ler, a world-wide JaLlboree to which every scout in the united
States is invited to attend. The Chickasaw council should be represented
at this Jamboree. We were represented by two boys at the last Jamboree,
and I feel that we should be represented by two more· at the present
Jamboree. The cost of this Jamboree will be about $600.00 per boy, and
if we are to be represented by two we should endeavor to secure. by donation enough money to send two boys to England. These two boys may be
�adde d to by scou ts who wish to pay thei r own
way. If that occa sion rise s
1 t will be so rJUch the bett er for· us. Thes
e two boys shou ld be .chos en
by indi vidu al cog; >etit ion, c:ind of cour se would go
to Engl and only unde r
comp etent lead ersh ip, whic h, I belie ve, will
be avai lable wher e the
Coun cil itse lf does not furn ish a lead er.
This is a. r:ia".;ter I feel
shou ld be discu ssed , and I hope1 there will
be sor:ie disc ussio n on this :oatte:r. enti rely .
In clos ing I would like to SB:il that I belie
ve the enti re func tioni ng of the Co'9D cil is in the best shap e
that. it has ever been , and I
feel sure that ther e are grea ter thin gs ahead
of us in J.929.

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

Kamp Kia Kima close d its 13th
n with the best finan cial
recor d it has ever hrul., as the ca.mp only had aseaso
defi cit of $.1.41. 77 for t.h.1
seaso n. At the begin ning of the camp, unusi.ially heavy
Memphis, as well as in c~, · cause·l the atten danc e to conti nued ruins i:u.
forty -four boys being in camp the first two weaks. Inbe very low, only
cap, the avera ge weeld y ·attencla:ace :i.n ca.mp this seaso spite of this hand icompared to sixty -six and a halt~ last year, and there n was seven ty boys as
was a total of. 211
boys in CaJl!P durin g the seaso n as compared with 192 last
seaso n.
$657.43 was spent for equipment this year, which inclu
ded the
price of a comp lete set of tools for the carpe ntry shop.
This
is
$247
.70
more than was spen t for equipment last seaso n. In addi
tion
to
this,
Mra.
M·
J. Spea rs donat ed $100 .00 which was used to purch ase
a
new
Fairb
anksMors
e
me z 2 horse power engj.ne for $56. 00, and a new
for $40. 00. This engine was a const ant sourc e of pleas ure, as it gave ce.noe
splen
did
servi ce throu ghout the seaso n and an abundance of wate r was always avail
able,
which has not
been the case in the past due to a fault y engin e.
The heal th of the boys was very~good
cepti on of five cases of Mala ria. The grea test precathrou gh camp with the exvent Mala ria, and 120 gallo ns of crude oil were used ution was taken to pre·wate r withi n a radiu s of one-h alf m.Ue of ca.mp. This to spray the stagnai1t
oil as was used last seaso n. The boys _also sprl'lyed thewas abou t twice as much
viciu i ty of the Girl
scou t camp as a "good turn" , and thoy also cond ucted
a
hunt
for breed:.l.ng
place s of mosqu.itoea in the vicin ity of the Girl scou
t comp, the same as th~y
did at Kamp Kia Kima. There were on:).y two serio us aiJcid
ents, one boy susta 5ning a sever e cut in his right knee and anoth er·ha ving
his
right fore ~rm broken, each accid ent being caused by a fa.ll while runn ing.
we
are pa:i.~ticulci.rly
proud of the camp 's recor d in prev entin g infec tion this
sea.co
n. Each louge
was equ.ipped with a bottl e of mercurochrome, which the
boys
used
frequ ently
and which was doub tless large ly respo nsibl e for the lack
of
jnfec
tion. No
boys were sent home .with infec ted legs or other infec
tions this seaso n.
Du.ring this year Kamp Kia Kima has made wonderful prog:;
:-ess in
build ing cons truct ion, due to the gen• rosit y af' Mr. Edwa
rd
M.
Salom
on,
vho
gave $1,50 0.00 for the cons truct ion of a two- story head
quart
ers
ledge
rr.ade
of
nativ e stone , and ta nr. Max Goltman, who gave $200 . 00
for
the
cons
truct
ion
af' a stone lodge . Kamp Kia Kima now has all
stone lodge s, a stone hea.dq11.arters lodge , and a stone visit ors lodge , The wooden build
ings in camp are the
mes~ hall, recre ation hall, hosp ital, and
the wareh ouse. The new head quart ers was of tremendous help to the camp Dire ctor this
seaso n, as it is something that has been badly needed for a number of years
.
�-2-
Report of Kamp Kia Kima committee continued
we recon:mend the following as necessary for the continued progress of Kamp Kia Kima:
1.
That a tennis court be built of concrete.
2.
That a new recreatio n hall be built.
3.
That plans be n:ad.e to secure a new mess hall within the ne:xt.
two years.
4 •.
~ot a shower bath be instaJ.led. so that all boys in camp will
have the cpportuni ty for bathing.
5.
1hat a restrictio n be placed on visitors and the length of
their sta.y.
6.
That a thoroughl y experienc ed Mess sergeant be employed. A
really good Mess sergeant at a salary of $75 •. 00 for the season will not only help in the preparati on and selection of
the food served, but will save m~ney for the c~.
7.
That the woodwork on all lodges be painted green before the
new season.
8.
That Headquar ters building be entirely screened, as there are
no screens in it at present.
9.
That curtains be purchased for the Reception Room at Headquarters, and that the room be fixed. up as attractiv ely as
possible for reception of visitors.
10.
That new screen doors be put on eight lodges, a.~d that the
remaining eight doors be screened. In screening these doors
ond in installin g now doors, one-inch mesh chicken wire
placAd ov.ar the screen would be of much ass is tanc a in preserving the ~ife of the doors as it will prevent boys from
pushing holes in the wire when they open the door. Also a
wooden piece should be put across these doors on the inside
so that the boys will push the door open on the wood insteai
of on the wire.
1
11.
That a new Handicra ft $hop be built.
12.
That a new Hospital be built, and that a latrine be a part
of the equip~ent. In the hospital or adjacent to it there
should be a shower bath for use of the boys in ca.mp who are
not sick. This could be a small room of stone and would
not be very expensive .
�-3-
Report of Kao.!;> Kia KirJa coor:iittee continued
13.
That at least two fire extiugu:i.shers be purcha.sed, as
there iit no fi:re protection in ca.mp with the exception of water.
14.
That a Handicrc.ft Expert be secured and placed in charge
of the shop 8nd tools for next season, and that more intenstve work be done.
15.
That a new latrine be built on the east side of camp.

Your comn ittee repor ts that only one schoo l for
train ing Scout Leade rs was condu cted by the counc il this
year, but
this schoo l was very success~ul. Fourt een men took the Minimu

now servi ng as scout maste rs; two are now servin g as Assis tant are
maste rs j two are now servi ng as Chairmen of Troop comn ittees scout three are prosp ectiv e Scout maste rs for new troops·. These men; and,
were .
very enthu siasti c over the train ing, and the attend ance at
the
schoo l was excep tiona l.
your Committee also condu cted a Train ing Schoo l
for Negro scout Leade rs under the direc tion of J. A. Beauchamp,
Assista nt to Mr. Stanl ey A· Harri s, Natio nal Direc tor of Inter

were
train ed, and it has. been the means of insur ing the permanency
of
the two negro troop s which were formed durin g the year.
For 1929 we urge that Chickasaw counc

until
a lake is built.
When this carap was purchased. the boys were promised a
lake and the major ity of the troops • ca.bins are built near the propos
lake site. It seems to me that ov.r counc il is moral ly bound to build ed
a
lake in 1929, espec ially as thls projec t has been in view for over
four
years.
Your Execu tive has had loyal and unself ish suppo rt, as well
advice from Presid ent John E. Rober ts, as he has been untiri ng in as sound
effort s to aid the Dow:icil to progre ss, I want to take this opporhis
tunity
to thank him for his excell ent suppo rt and help.
I also want to thank Commissioner Ross A. Mathews and ;~ssistant commissio ner Allen Hughes, Jr. for their splend id coope ration , as they
devote d their time freely and gladly in helpin g to handle the proble have
the counc il. They have at all times worked with your Execu tive and ms of
have
done everyt hing they could to build scouti ng in Me!T.$)his.

32% of the popul ation is negro, theref ore, there are a.bout 8,000 inclus ive.
and 4,COO negro boys who are eligib le for scouti ng. This is the white boys
real challenge to our counc il, espec ially as there are 58 church es in Memph
which have never sponsored a scout troop. We should have at least is alone
15 new
troops and 3QO new scouts and let me urge that the counc il exert
every
effort to secure this increa se during the year 1929. This can be
done if
men can be found to lead the boys so I recommend that Traini ng Schoo
scout Leade rs be conducted by the counc il at least twice each year, ls for
traine d leader ship means troop permanency, Troops organi zed withou as

The Chickasaw council now has Forty-six (46) active troops. and has a

Director with full power to operate Kamp Kia Kima.
The council is now conducting a Scout Leaders•. Training School. It
is highly important that tl;te men who are to be Scoutmasters: or Scout r.eaders should be trained in scouting• and while this Training School is somewhat of ~m expense to the council.,. it is very desirable and I heartil~r
recommend 'that it be made a part of eueh yeart s program. and that the men
who a.re ~>coutmastera and have never taken this training be required to
take the course. and that those desiring to. be scoutmasters be asked to
· telte this training before assuming charge of a troop.

good. l!he New :srys, during the year 1927, put· on one of the best :;scouting
exhibit ions that I .have seen in a long time, and I bdieve was of such nature as to be ·very beneficial to scouting. They further presented the
Chickasaw c01..meil with 5,000 scout blotters. which were very acceptable.
and have been of great use to us in advertising the scout movement in this
city. The three stores f'u.rt;h.er cooperated with Headquarters during the
.AJJ.niversary week by the use of display windows. and by putting ::aoy scout
stickers in the .outgoing mail. The New Br,;ys used 12.500; Phil A. Halle,
i.ooo; and J. Goldsmith and sons, 2,000. 1l'his has been very beneficial to
the Council, and has been appreciated very till.ch.

Report of scout Executive
The Council is indebted to Mr. Allen Hughes, Jr., Mr. Thomas Hughes,
iv1r. Willard Hays, Mr. Joe Flanagan, Mr. :Ben Coffey and ?.ir. W.F. Heiskell
for their splendid work in conducting the scwut Leaders Training School
which closed on NoveL1ber 24th a.nd which was the direct cause of securing
four new scoutraasters as well as training nine other men for scoutmastership•,
Chickasaw Council started scouting among negro boys in the early
part of 1928 and this movement has been a.~ unqualified success. The negroes have not only taken keen interest in the work but they have conducted themselves so well that there has been no friction whatsoever between
the negro troops and the white troops. ~here has been no objection by
white ScoutmBsters or Scouts as to the formation of these two negro troops
and in 1929 I suggest that four or more negro troops be organized.
In planning the work of the council for 1929 I recommend:
l.
That two or more Training schools for white leaders be conducted.
2.
That at least one Training School for negro leaders bo conducted.
3. That all members of the council report to council Headquarters
the names of o.en whom they con-sider to be fit cv.ndid«tcs for scoutrnastership.
f·
4.
That a lake be built v.t cor.-:p currier.
5. That a reliable means of transportation to camp currier be arranged so that troops will have easy access to the car:'.!P at all times.
6. That at least eight boys representing the council attend the
Third International Jwnboree which will be held in Arrowe Park, Eirhenhead, England from July 3Q to August 14th, 1929 at which at least 1,000
1v:cricon scouts are expected to attend.
7. That throUf'Jl educati ono.l publicity and other c.eans Dn• organized
effort be made to educate the public at large and especially heads of
churches and other institutions, as to the values of scouting, and by so
doing to assist in the formation of additional troops.
8. That Sea Scouting be given a proIJ.inent place ~n council activities and a sailboat secured for the use of the Sea scouts.
scouting is a vital force in community welfare and is tremendously
helpful as a supplenent to the work of the Churches.
In conclusion I
want to thank each and every one of you gentlemen who have so materially helped in working out the scout prograu and I earnestly request your
continued help and support in making scouting available to the boys of
the Council area.
Respectfully submitted,
W. Gordon Morris
scout Executive

Scouts and. 2 <>f which are Sea scouts. and .a t:roop-s of negro boys with a total
enrollment of l,152 Scouts.
These boys are receiving the benefit of splendid
tra.ining·from their Scoutmasters and are doing ve~ fine work.
!he Memphis Rot317 Olu, unde.v the leadership of Mr. Seddon Allen. Presi•
KU.mes, General Chairman of the Rotaey CoDlllli\tee. sponsore.d the first M.eri t :Badge Exposition 111 Menphis and in Region 5. This wa.s
the moat outsta.nQ.ing event in the. histol"1 of Memphis Scouting.
The Memphis
Rotary Club offered $165.00 in prizes and the West Hall of the Auditoriun was
used to house 37 booths in which the troops ctemonstra.tei and exhibited the

various Merit Badge subjects.
More than 11.000 people attended the Exposi-

Chickasaw Co'UJlcil has received a tine amo-tmt of. puhlioity from this event, as
Mr. Harold w. Lewman. Regional Exeoutive. has. sent programs and other data
regarding the Exp~eition to all of the Councils in the Region in an endea.Tor
to stimulate them to simi.lar ac.liTities.
Due to the generosit7 of the
Rotary
Club hundreds of tree tickets we:re distributed so th.at all boys in Memphis
might have the opportaity of seeing the Exposition. TJ+eretore, the Exposi•
tion lost about $500.00. which the Rotary Club pa.id. We are d.eepl7 indebted
to the .Rotarians for this aplendid cooperation in showing the public: what
Scouts eaa do and. I ·want to thank Mr. Allen and Mr. llf.raes for thelr untiring

Camp Currier is beoominc increasingly valuable to ctur Sco~s but I do
not believe 1t will ever reach the fullest extent 0£ its usetul.aess until a
lake is built.
When this .camp was purchased the 'boys were p:romise4 a lake
�and the majority of the troopst cabins a.re built near the propead lake site.
It seems to me that our CO'Oneil is morallf bound to build a lake in 1939•
especially as this project-has be• in T1ew for ove:r tow 7eara.
Your Exeeutive has had lo7al and unseltish auppon. aa well as sounl

CHICKASAW COUJ)TCIL '
QHIOKA.SAW COUNCIL, :B. S. A.
ANNUAL MEETING DEC. 13, 1928.
Report of Activities comnittee
* * * * * * *
I feel that my report tonight should deal more with the
functioning of the troops and Scout Leaders than it should with the
more spectacular services that the boys have rendered during the past
year. It has been my pleasure and privilege during the past year to
have visited the ID.:1.jO:r.ity of the troops in Chickasaw council, and I
feel that it is my duty tp report to this organization the exact conditions
that I have found.
I find an excellent spirit manifest in all the boys, and
in the majority of the scoutmasters an ambition to better serve the
troops they are leading. However, for some unknown reason, at the
present time there is a great dearth in scout L~aders, and we have at
the present time six troops without scoutmasters. This lack of scoutmasters
is not due to any fault of the Executive or the Head.qu.artersr
staff, but is due to the neglect of the parent institution and its
failure to meet-its obligations. We have just completed a Scout Leaders•
Training school, and I feel sure that some of these vacalicios
will be filled by men who completed this school.
It is my sincere belief that hereafter no man should be
commissioned as scoutmaster who has not attended one of the scout Leaders'
Training Schools, or who will in the near future attend one; and,
furthermore, that no institution should be granted the privilege of
sponsoring a Boy scout Troop unless they can to the satisfaction of the
Troop Qrganhation committee show that they intend to furnish a competent
scoutmaster and a qualified Troop committee, and who, in the case
of vacancies of a scoutmaster or Troop corrmi tteeman, will fill fro.m
their own ranks, with the aid and cooperation of the scout Executive,
the positions vacated. To my mind troop permanency is a far greater
need than new troop organization. V{hat we need in scouting today is
quality, not quanity; efficiency, rather than numerical strength. And,
so I say that we should carefully scrutinize each application from an
organization for a charter for a Boy Scout Troop.
To the majority of you men who are not so familiar with
the ]oy scout work, I cannot in the short time I have tonight explain
what it means to have an untrained scout Lead.er in charge of boys Who
are seeking to adopt the Boy scout program to their own use. As concisely
as I can put it, it is this: All untrained leader means dissat~
isfied, restless, and mischevious boys, who in a very short period of
time will be lost to the :soy scout program and who will have missed ..
the greatest thing that scouting teaches, and a boy twelve years old
once lost can never be regained. That is the penalty of untrained
leadership, or the absolute lack of leadership. ,And, so I say to you

11ntlemen here tonight that in scouting the biggest name of a citizen of
11.h city means nothing unless that name is coupled with the desire to
work. 'I1he time has come for us to supply men who are willing to give
l1adership rather than men who have gained for themselves a big name in
'bu.•iness~ This is not a utopian idea 1 btJ,t a cold; practical business
1tateli.lent, and these ideas will be put into force under the new constitution
that has been adopted here tonight, and let me ask that you all
give 100 percent cooperation i~ putting across this new idea in scouting.
I feel sure that under the reports of the various standing
committees you will hear of the many meritorious activities the scouts
of Memphis have entered into, and so here let me merely name them in the
order. in which they came during the year~ and leave to the other gentlemen
the privilege of enlarging on this subject:
.Anniversay Week
Merit Eadge Exposition
Placed flags for community Fund and removed same after
COlill!IUl.lity Fund Drive
Assisted in the office of the Coomunity Fund
Ushered at National conference of social Workers at
Auditoriuo for one week
Ushered for Izaak Walton League
Helped Memphis park corm::iission in Halloween celebration
Armistice J)ay parade
Assisted in unloading cars at "shower" given by the
Lighthouse Mission .
Distributed posters for Shelby County Tuberculosis society
~oodfellows snnta Claus Club
scout Lenders' Round Table
Eeing responsible for all of the activities of the council, I
Wllllt at this tiue to cor:nend cost heartily the efficient manner in which
our Executive has handled the affairs of the council and the splendid
spirit that he has developed az;.1ong the leaders m:i.d the scouts in this
cor:imuni ty.
Nineteen hundred and twenty-eight is gone, the records of that
year are written, and now it is tiue for us to turn our eyes towards the
possibilities of.1929 to see what outstanding services we can be of during
thatyear and what part the scouts a.re going to play in their community.
In 1929 scouting will be twenty-one yea.rs old, and in comnemoration
of this event there is being held in England sor:ie time in the latter part
of the su..'T.ler, a world-wide JaLlboree to which every scout in the united
States is invited to attend. The Chickasaw council should be represented
at this Jamboree. We were represented by two boys at the last Jamboree,
and I feel that we should be represented by two more· at the present
Jamboree. The cost of this Jamboree will be about $600.00 per boy, and
if we are to be represented by two we should endeavor to secure. by donation
enough money to send two boys to England. These two boys may be
added to by scouts who wish to pay their own way. If that occasion rises
1 t will be so rJUch the better for· us. These two boys should be .chosen
by individual cog;>etition, c:ind of course would go to England only under
competent leadership, which, I believe, will be available where the
Council itself does not furnish a leader. This is a. r:ia".;ter I feel
should be discussed, and I hope1 there will be sor:ie discussion on this :oatte:
r. entirely.
In closing I would like to SB:il that I believe the entire functioning
of the Co'9Dcil is in the best shape that. it has ever been, and I
feel sure that there are greater things ahead of us in J.929.
Respectfully subr.litted,

~e Camp currier conmi ttee reports that during the past year some progr~
Be ~s been made in the camp, but we do not feel that this camp will
~vor reach the full extent of its usefulness until a lake is built. When
this Bite was purchased, the scouts were told that a lake would be built,
ond we believe the council is morally bound to build this lake during 1S29
a1 the ca.mp is now four years old and this important feature should not be
poatponed any longer. Most of the troops have built cabins on the proposed
lake site, and they expect us to build the lake.
'!here is now a gravel road from Memphis to the headquarters cabin,
thiB being the first year that we have enjoyed a hard surface road all the
WIJ¥ to camp. Through the courtesy of W.W. cox, the new supervisor of the
rood district in which the camp is located, the northwest road through the
oarnp has been graded for the first time.
During this year there have been a number of barbecues at the c~np,
among which was the Civitan club picnic, under the auspices of Troop 33,
which Wes attended by more than one hundred people. Get..irogether Day for
the scouts attracted mere than one hundred and fifty boys to camp, the
lurgest number that has ever been in camp at any one time. The Fall Contest
during the months of October and November was of tremendous interest to the
boys. This contest was won by Troop 34, while Troop 40 was second, and
Troop 1 wes third.
The barbecue for the winners of the 1927 F~l contest, which was won
by Troop 11 with Troop 34 second, was well attended, and we expect to have
another barbecue for the winners of the 1928 contest in the very near
future.
The camp has been greatly benefitted by the graveled road which hos
been built from the camp entrance to the heedquarters through the efforts
of Mr. Walter Lane smith, Chairman of the Finance committee, who raised
the money for this work. Without this road it would be impossible to get
to camp from the highway during wet weather. A new road started by Senator
s.E. Dean, who is a resident of Eudora, has been built from the healiquarters
cabin northward to the extreme north end of the camp, thus making it
possible for automobiles to reach every part of the camp. On completion
of the lnke,· it is planned to connect this road and the northwest road by
means of a driveway over the dam so that it will be possible to drive to
the entire northern end of the camp.

Report of Caup Currier Committee (Continued)
For 1929 ';7e recommend:
l, That a lake be built.
2. That the council arrange sane Deans of transportation for the
boys from the end of the Florida street carline to the ca.op.
3. ~at every effort be rnad.e to bring this camp to the greatest
deg:rae of use:t'~1lness for all of the scouts cf Meri!Jhis and especially
t.i1cse vine- con.not go to Kar,1]? Kia Kitla.
4, That all troops oe encouraged to build or complete their cabins
so that each troop can have its own troop headquarters in
camp.

Report of Civic Relations Conmittee
The civic Relations Committee reports that during the
past year the scouts have been of vast assistance to numerous organlzations
in Memphis.
During the comnuni ty Fund Drive they placed posters in
the windows of the principal stores throughout the downtown district, and
also distributed posters to the various churches. They put flag poles in
the sidewalks on the principal downtown streets, and then placed American
Flags and conmuni ty Fund Flags on these poles. After the Drive they removed
these flags and returned them to the community Fund.
On several occasions scouts have distributed posters
for the Shelby county TUberculosis society. They have also helped the
Lighthouse Mission in assembling food for the poor.
During the National conference of social Workers Scouts,
acted as ushers at each session for one week, and also distributed programs.
on Halloween scout troops assisted the Memphis Park
Commission in their programs at the various playgrounds.
scouts have ':1lso served as ushers for the Izaak Wal ton
League, and at a :S. Y.P .• U. meeting at which Governor Horton spoke.
For 1929 we recommend thnt scouts do every civic good
turn possible, but we also re commend that the scout Executive be authorized
to refuse to send scouts to organizations which in his judgement are calling
for boys needlessly or who nre using scouts for indoor work which is not
liked by the boys. During the year numerous requests have been made for
scouts to serve in parades Cllld functions which were commercial entirely, and
which this committee has had to refuse. Hence, we recommend that all requests
for use of our boys be carefully considered by the committee before
approval.

ANNUAL ME~ nm DEC. 13 t 1928. -·--......................... ··-
Kamp Kia Kima closed its 13th season with the best financial
record it has ever hrul., as the ca.mp only had a deficit of $.1.41. 77 for t.h.1
season. At the beginning of the camp, unusi.ially heavy continued ruins i:u.
Memphis, as well as in c~, · cause·l the attendance to be very low, only
forty-four boys being in camp the first two weaks. In spite of this handicap,
the average weeldy ·attencla:ace :i.n ca.mp this season was seventy boys as
compared to sixty-six and a halt~ last year, and there was a total of. 211
boys in CaJl!P during the season as compared with 192 last season.
$657.43 was spent for equipment this year, which included the
price of a complete set of tools for the carpentry shop. This is $247.70
more than was spent for equipment last season. In addition to this, Mra. M·
J. Spears donated $100.00 which was used to purchase a new Fairbanks-Morse
me z 2 horse power engj.ne for $56. 00, and a new ce.noe for $40. 00. This engine
was a constant source of pleasure, as it gave splendid service throughout
the season and an abundance of water was always available, which has not
been the case in the past due to a faulty engine.
The health of the boys was very~good through camp with the exception
of five cases of Malaria. The greatest precaution was taken to pre·vent
Malaria, and 120 gallons of crude oil were used to spray the stagnai1t
water within a radius of one-half m.Ue of ca.mp. This was about twice as much
oil as was used last season. The boys _also sprl'lyed the viciui ty of the Girl
scout camp as a "good turn", and thoy also conducted a hunt for breed:.l.ng
places of mosqu.itoea in the vicinity of the Girl scout comp, the same as th~y
did at Kamp Kia Kima. There were on:).y two serious aiJcidents, one boy susta5ning
a severe cut in his right knee and another·having his right fore ~rm broken,
each accident being caused by a fa.ll while running. we are pa:i.~ticulci.rly
proud of the camp's record in preventing infection this sea.con. Each louge
was equ.ipped with a bottle of mercurochrome, which the boys used frequently
and which was doubtless largely responsible for the lack of jnfection. No
boys were sent home.with infected legs or other infections this season.
Du.ring this year Kamp Kia Kima has made wonderful prog:;:-ess in
building construction, due to the gen•rosity af' Mr. Edward M. Salomon, vho
gave $1,500.00 for the construction of a two-story headquarters ledge rr.ade of
native stone, and ta nr. Max Goltman, who gave $200. 00 for the construction
af' a stone lodge. Kamp Kia Kima now has all stone lodges, a stone hea.dq11.arters
lodge, and a stone visitors lodge, The wooden buildings in camp are the
mes~ hall, recreation hall, hospital, and the warehouse. The new headquarters
was of tremendous help to the camp Director this season, as it is something
that has been badly needed for a number of years.
-2-
Report of Kamp Kia Kima committee continued
we recon:mend the following as necessary for the continued progress
of Kamp Kia Kima:
1. That a tennis court be built of concrete.
2. That a new recreation hall be built.
3. That plans be n:ad.e to secure a new mess hall within the ne:xt.
two years.
4 •. ~ot a shower bath be instaJ.led. so that all boys in camp will
have the cpportuni ty for bathing.
5. 1hat a restriction be placed on visitors and the length of
their sta.y.
6. That a thoroughly experienced Mess sergeant be employed. A
really good Mess sergeant at a salary of $75 •. 00 for the season
will not only help in the preparation and selection of
the food served, but will save m~ney for the c~.
7. That the woodwork on all lodges be painted green before the
new season.
8. That Headquarters building be entirely screened, as there are
no screens in it at present.
9. That curtains be purchased for the Reception Room at Headquarters,
and that the room be fixed. up as attractively as
possible for reception of visitors.
10. That new screen doors be put on eight lodges, a.~d that the
remaining eight doors be screened. In screening these doors
ond in installing now doors, one-inch mesh chicken wire
placAd ov.ar the screen would be of much ass is tanc 1a in preserving
the ~ife of the doors as it will prevent boys from
pushing holes in the wire when they open the door. Also a
wooden piece should be put across these doors on the inside
so that the boys will push the door open on the wood insteai
of on the wire.
11. That a new Handicraft $hop be built.
12. That a new Hospital be built, and that a latrine be a part
of the equip~ent. In the hospital or adjacent to it there
should be a shower bath for use of the boys in ca.mp who are
not sick. This could be a small room of stone and would
not be very expensive.
-3-
Report of Kao.!;> Kia KirJa coor:iittee continued
13. That at least two fire extiugu:i.shers be purcha.sed, as
there iit no fi:re protection in ca.mp with the exception
of water.
14. That a Handicrc.ft Expert be secured and placed in charge
of the shop 8nd tools for next season, and that more intenstve
work be done.
15. That a new latrine be built on the east side of camp.
16. That one oe:~ber of the caop staff the past season be invit,
ed to attenc1.. the L.leet:i.ngs of the caup conw.ittee in an
advisory cape.city.
17, That Ike :Baskin, cook, and Richard Madison, cook's Assistant,
be eqployed for next se3son, as they cid splendid
work this season ane. are ~ell liked by the boys.
18. That the kitchen sink be lined ttith zinc, or a new one
be installed.
19. That early in this year an experienced Car.:tp Director be
e:q,loyed to direct the carJp fer the ensuing camp season.
That tne COI:!:p director be given autho~ity to appoint
his stuff and that he be held res:ponsible to the car:ip

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

Report of publicity Qomnittee
* * * * * * "'
YO!.lr Comnittee reports that during 1928 the Memphis pressscimitar
has given splendid cooperation by running a one-quarter page
known as the 11 scout press-Scimitar" once each week. Th.is page is widely
reaA by the scouts, and is of mu.ch assistance to council Head.quarters in
keeping all of the scouts informed of the various activities.
The Memphis Evening Appeal for the last few months has
been giving us a considerable amount of space, and this is also greatly
appreciated.
During the Merit Badge EXPOsition,the comnercial ,Appeal
printed several editorials and notices of this event, and afterwards ran
pictures of the three winning booths in the rotogravure section of the pa~
per. The comnercial Appeal was also very good in publishing news of Kamp
Kia Kima•s acti·vities during the summer months.
The scouts aided the community Fund in securing publicity
by putting on two first aid demonstrations on south court street during
the community FU.nd Drive. Each of these demonstrations attracted a large
crowd and gave considerable help to the publicity campaign of the fund.
council Headquarters publishes a bulletin each week,
which ·is known as the 11 council Fire". Th.is bulletin is aen t to all of
the scoutmasters, Assistant scoutmasters, and Chairmen of the Troop committees.
The council has rece:;,1tly purchased a mimeoscope, as well as an
addressograph, and in the f·<J.t;u::e it is planned to enlarge the '1 council
Fire" so that it may be of more use to the scoutmasters and othe:i.~s to whom
it is sent.
For the coming year we recomnend that especial efforts be
made to secure additional space in the newspapers and that editorials,
news items, and other publicity features be used as often as possible. We
believe that news articles which are educational to the general public as
to the value of scouting should be used as often as possible,as we find
that the majority of the people of Memphis do not know the true aims and
ideals of scouting. we also recon:mend that the council members assist
scout Headquarters in securing publicity and also in using publicity as a
help toward the education of the public~

Report of Reading Committee
Your comnittee reports that there is a considerable interest
in :BOYS' LIFE, the official magazine of the ]oy scouts of America
and that a number of troops have taken adt·antage of the offer of one-half
price when fifty percent of the troop subscribes for the magazine at the
time the troop is registered., This magazine is of especial interest to
boys, and it is being rapidly improved. several of our boys are deeply
interested in aviation and quite a number of them are becoming interested.
A special Aviation Department has been created in BOYS' LIFE and this
will doubtless be of much interest to many Memphis scouts.
Last year the books sent to Kamp Kia Kima were not all.
interesting subjects to boys, and this yeHr the selection was more carefully
ma.de so that the books were of interest to the scouts in camp and
they were very widely read. Also a large nurnber of Merit Badge pamphlets
were available in camp and these were used extensively.
In the bulletin issued by iteadquarters and known as
11 The Council Fire" attention has been called to various subjects and
items in BOYS' LIFE with the idea of encouraging our boys to read as it
is a proven fact that information gathered from the printed page is more
readily absorbed by a boy than any other method of teaching.
Jor 1929 we recommend that all boys be encouraged to
read BOYS' LIFE as well as good books. We suggest that book lists of
selected books be furnished them and that the Council's Reading Cammi
ttee cooperate with the school libraries as well as the public li braries
in an endeavor to promote worth while reading,
We also recommend that camp libraries be established
at both Kamp Kia Kfr·,a and Camp currier, with a number of good books owned
by the camp in addition to the books which are supplied by the Cossitt
Library. .Any member of tho council having a surplus of books will greatly
benefit these camps by donating to them. we would also appreciate
the donation of magazines for Camp currier, as they would be very useful,
especially on rainy days,
We suggest to the incoming president that in appointing
the next Reading committee due regard be given to the appointment
of persons especially interested in Training, Camping, court of Honor
and publicity and that one member be appointed to represent the schools
and one the libraries.

QHIOKASAW COUNCIL, :B. S. A.
ANNUAL MEETING DEC. 13, 1928.
Report of Training Comnittee.
* * * * * *
Your comnittee reports that only one school for
training Scout Leaders was conducted by the council this year, but
this school was very success~ul. Fourteen men took the Minimum
course of the Five-Year Training Program. Of these men three are
now serving as scoutmasters; two are now serving as Assistant scoutmasters
j two are now serving as Chairmen of Troop comnittees; and,
three are prospective Scoutmasters for new troops·. These men were .
very enthusiastic over the training, and the attendance at the
school was exceptional.
your Committee also conducted a Training School
for Negro scout Leaders under the direction of J. A. Beauchamp, Assistant
to Mr. Stanley A· Harris, National Director of Inter-Racial
Activities. At this school a number of boys as well as men were
trained, and it has. been the means of insuring the permanency of
the two negro troops which were formed during the year.
For 1929 we urge that Chickasaw council make
every effort to secure additional scout Leaders, and when these
leaders have been found to conduct sufficient training schools to
train these men properly, as we do not believe troop:; will be permanent
unless led by trained leaders. we request the Dfumber.~i
of the council to advise us whenever a candidate for Scoutmaste.rship
is available, so that we may get in touch with him and arrange
a training school for his benefit.
We recommend that another training school for
negroes be conducted in the near future l;Uld that at this scb.ooi
sufficient negro leaders are trained to take care of the number of
troops which are authorized by the council at this meeting. we believe
J. A· Beauchamp can be secured to conduct this school, and
that it will be the means of promoting the work among negro boys.
Respectfully subnitted,

Report of Troop organization committee
* * * * ... * * *
********
There were three troops organized during 1928. They
are as follows :
Troop NO. 55 (Sea Scout)
Troop No. 27
Troop No. 38
Idlewild Presbyterian Church
Decatur street Christian Church
Larmar Heights Pres. Church
There were two troops formed of negro boys as follows:
Troop NO. 100
Troop No. 101
Centenary Methodist Church
central Eaptist Church
For 1929, we recommend that at least fifteen new
troops be formed among white boys and as many colored troops as
is deemed advisable by the President of the council. However,
we recommend that the institution furnish its own leadership
when organizing a new troop and that the leaders appointed by
the institution receive training before being allowed to take
charge Of the troop. We believe there is a great deal better
chance for troop permanency if the scoutmaster has received the
training required in the Minimum course of the "Five Year Training
Program" and believe that if this policy is followed. the
troops which are established in 1929 will continue on a sound
basis instead of dying gradually as is the case when lead by untrained
men.
'lb.ere are eight churches who have indicated that they
desire a scout Troop but organization has not been attempted on
account of lack of leadership. We urge the Council to do everything
possible to secure scout leaders as scouting cannot progress
unless leaders are available.
Respectfully submitted,

ANNUAL MEETING - DECEMBER 13, 1928.
Report of scout Executive
*"!*"'****
Chickasaw council now has 44 troops of white boys and 2 troops of
negro boys with a total enrollment of 1,137 scouts. These boys are receiving
the benefit of splendid training from their scoutmasters and are
d9ing very fine work.
The Memphis Rotary Club, under the leadership of :'r. Seddon Allen,
president and Mr. George V. Klimes, General Chairman of the Rotary Committee,
sponsored the first Merit Badge Exposition in Memphis and in
Region 5. This was the most outstanding event in the history of Memphis
scouting• The Memphis Rotary Club offered $165.00 in prizes and the
West H.all of the Auditorium was used to house 37 booths in which the
troops demonstrated and exhibited the various Merit Badge subjects. }~ore
than.11,0CO p~ople attended the Exposition including the Regional Executive
and scout Executives from five councils. Chickasaw council has
received a fine amount of publicity from this event, as Mr. iiarold w.
Lewman, Regional Executive, has sent programs an.a other data regarding
the Exposition to all of the councils in the Region in an endeavor to
stimlilate them to similar activities. Due to the generosity of the
Rotary. club hundreds of free tickets were distributed so that all boys
in Memphis might have the opportunity of seeing the EJCposi ti on. T.i.lorefore,
the Exposition lost about $500.00, which the Rotary Club paid. We
are deeply indebted to the Rotarians for this splendid cooperation in
showing the public what scouts can do and I want to thank Mr. Allen and
Mr. Klimes for their untiring efforts which made the Exposition such a
wonderful success.
Ka.mp Kia Kima closed its most successful year in 1928 and this in
spitlt of obstacles caused by high water at the beginning of the camping
season which materially lessened the attendance during the first two
weeks. Through the generosity of Mr. Edward M. Salomon, Kia Kima now
has a beautiful two story Headquarters Lodge built of native stone. This
building has been needed for a number of years and we are tremendously
indebted to Mr. Salomon for it, as it is one of the finest buildings I
have ever seen in a scout Camp. Dr. Max Goltman donated a fine stone
lodge to the camp and this is deeply appreciated, as it completes the
buildings necessary to house all of the boys in stone lodges.
During the year our scouts have rendered aid to many civic enterprises
and their good turns have been appreciated by the numerous organizations
which have been helped. The boys have done splendid work and
have always responded when called on to aid the community Fund Drive,
Shelby county TUberculosis society and others.
-2-
R~ort of !cout Executive
C~ Currier is becoming increasingly valuable to our scouts but I do
not believe it will ever reach the fullest extent of its usefulness until
a lake is built. When this carap was purchased. the boys were promised a
lake and the majority of the troops• ca.bins are built near the proposed
lake site. It seems to me that ov.r council is morally bound to build a
lake in 1929, especially as thls project has been in view for over four
years.
Your Executive has had loyal and unselfish support, as well as sound
advice from President John E. Roberts, as he has been untiring in his
efforts to aid the Dow:icil to progress, I want to take this opportunity
to thank him for his excellent support and help.
I also want to thank Commissioner Ross A. Mathews and ;~ssistant commissioner
Allen Hughes, Jr. for their splendid cooperation, as they have
devoted their time freely and gladly in helping to handle the problems of
the council. They have at all times worked with your Executive and have
done everything they could to build scouting in Me!T.$)his.
It has been a pleasure to work with the members of the Advisory Board,
for these gentlemen have not only l)een willing and ready to serve when
called on, but have continuall~' woi:k~d for the betterment of the council
in trying to assist your Executive in any and a.11 undertakings. I sincerely
hope tha.t in 1929 a large m .. u:1ber of the council Members will take an
active part in helping our boys to become men of character trained for citizenship,
Memphis has three official outfitters, namely, The New Bry•s, J.
Goldsmith & sons co. and Phil A. Halle. These firms have cooperated whenever
possible, the New Bryt s through Mr. Edward M. Salomon, having given
especially fine assistance to the council in furni.sh5.ng space for the National
council Exhibit of scout Equipment and also furnishing the services of
Rotan-Tonka, the Ojibway Indian, who spent the month of March working with
Girl and Boy scouts and other civic bodies.
ci.:ticl><:.suw council• s area; which is Shelby county, Tennessee and Desoto
county, Mississippi, has a population of about 303,QOO and of this number
approximately 12,000 are boys of scout age, that is from 12 to 15 inclusive.
32% of the population is negro, therefore, there are a.bout 8,000 white boys
and 4,COO negro boys who are eligible for scouting. This is the real challenge
to our council, especially as there are 58 churches in Memphis alone
which have never sponsored a scout troop. We should have at least 15 new
troops and 3QO new scouts and let me urge that the council exert every
effort to secure this increase during the year 1929. This can be done if
men can be found to lead the boys so I recommend that Training Schools for
scout Leaders be conducted by the council at least twice each year, as
trained leadership means troop permanency, Troops organized without trained
leaders are seldom pdrma:nent and troop mortality can largely be traced
to the lack of trained scoutmasters.
RJl.:POHT OF SCUUT lWClYrIVE
12-31-27.
The Chickasaw council now has Forty-six (46) active troops. and has a
total enrollment of 1171 scouts. 1hree troons in the C0u11cil are now
wi thou.t scoutuasters, but I hope that within ~ few weeks t11er;,e tr.oops wil 1
all have scou trnasters. All of the troops ~e very active at the present
time.
';he Ef:.ficiency Contest, :fo:r which r~r. tf Ohn '11
• Morgan o£fered a. loving
cup •. has pro:ven a great aid in determining the ~mount of real scou.ting each
troop· is doing. and while the ];fficiency Contest is far from perfect and
has its bad points., I would say that tald.ng it, all in all it has been a
. very beneficial idea, but it will need some r2'iical chnu,g:es to pro'\l'e successful
during the coming yev.r. The boys always like something new. ~.nd, therefo\.
e. it will necessarily tf>L":e s(L;e study to determine its su.ccessor. There
is now outstanding a cournittee of ScoutnHsters 'Who are studyi:nr~ this problem,
<:itd 'ltpon t.he report of this committee, the Scout Le<)derst Ho.mid T~:J;le will
take sct:i.on.

work more than a.pprecia.ted by those who astted for it.
The JGxe~utive feels that so: ce :'.te'."ltion should be made of the splendid .
<Jnd unselfish work of Mr. John '1.r.. r,iorr;m1, President of the Ghick.usaw Council.
He h:s been lllltiring in his efforts to serve the Coundl, o.nd has always been
willing to --lend a helping hand to everyone. His advice has alw~··s been sound,
nnd his energy unlimited.
I also want ·to thank Cornnissioner .Tchn E. Roberts and Deputy Con:rmissioner.
s .Allen Hu hes, 'l'l:1or::ias Hu.,'ii.es &nd \'iilla.rd Hays :for their splendid cooperat:
ton. They have given unselfishly of their time and. have beco;',,e r1;reat assets
·of the Chickasaw Council, and it is only because of such ::en as t."ese that
-2-
the Executive has single-handed been able to handle the problems of the
council.
On the other hand, the work of the Execu.tive :soard of the Council has
been very beneficial. These men have alw~s been willing and ready to
serve when called on. and as long as such men as these are members of the
EXeau.t.ive :Board, scouting is going to be a $UCcess in the city of Memph~s.
However, instead of merely the :EXecu.tive Board being interested in scout•
ing and being willing to give their time to it, some way should be devised
to interest not only the EXeco.tive Board out the entire Chickasaw Cow1cil.
Kamp Kia Kima needs sorneOAe in authority at the head 'of camp. someone
who can preserve discipline at all times and properly direct the camp both
from a recreational and tiriancial standpoint, someone who will be present
at all times, and I feel t.hat after having operated Ka.rap Kia Kioa from
Memphis for two years, that the Exec'lltive is the proper person to clirect
the activities of Kia Kirna. This has been tried in most of the Cou.11cils
over the country r:!lld has proven very successful. scouting in M~mphis 1:'1111"
not. suf:fier from the 1;:.xecu~ive being at .K8'11p Kia Kima, i'or during the summer
months there is li·ttle at l'Jemphis to demand his special attention, and
the routine of the of::ice cou.ld be successfully handled by the office
eta.ff. I therefore heartily recorm1end that the .i;;xecu.tive be made the Qa."llp
Director with full power to operate Kamp Kia Kima.
The council is now conducting a Scout Leaders•. Training School. It
is highly important that tl;te men who are to be Scoutmasters: or Scout r.eaders
should be trained in scouting• and while this Training School is somewhat
of ~m expense to the council.,. it is very desirable and I heartil~r
recommend 'that it be made a part of eueh yeart s program. and that the men
who a.re ~>coutmastera and have never taken this training be required to
take the course. and that those desiring to. be scoutmasters be asked to
· telte this training before assuming charge of a troop.
'l1hree stores. in the city o;f Memphis; namely, the Netv :Brys, Phil .A.,,.
Halle, and J. Goldsmith and sons. are hendling scout supplies, ur1iforms,
imd equipment. an.ct. their cooperation with scout Headquarters has been very
good. l!he New :srys, during the year 1927, put· on one of the best :;scouting
exhibit ions that I .have seen in a long time, and I bdieve was of such nature
as to be ·very beneficial to scouting. They further presented the
Chickasaw c01..meil with 5,000 scout blotters. which were very acceptable.
and have been of great use to us in advertising the scout movement in this
city. The three stores f'u.rt;h.er cooperated with Headquarters during the
.AJJ.niversary week by the use of display windows. and by putting ::aoy scout
stickers in the .outgoing mail. The New Br,;ys used 12.500; Phil A. Halle,
i.ooo; and J. Goldsmith and sons, 2,000. 1l'his has been very beneficial to
the Council, and has been appreciated very till.ch.

Report of scout Executive
The Council is indebted to Mr. Allen Hughes, Jr., Mr. Thomas Hughes,
iv1r. Willard Hays, Mr. Joe Flanagan, Mr. :Ben Coffey and ?.ir. W.F. Heiskell
for their splendid work in conducting the scwut Leaders Training School
which closed on NoveL1ber 24th a.nd which was the direct cause of securing
four new scoutraasters as well as training nine other men for scoutmastership•,
Chickasaw Council started scouting among negro boys in the early
part of 1928 and this movement has been a.~ unqualified success. The negroes
have not only taken keen interest in the work but they have conducted
themselves so well that there has been no friction whatsoever between
the negro troops and the white troops. ~here has been no objection by
white ScoutmBsters or Scouts as to the formation of these two negro troops
and in 1929 I suggest that four or more negro troops be organized.
In planning the work of the council for 1929 I recommend:
l. That two or more Training schools for white leaders be conducted.
2. That at least one Training School for negro leaders bo conducted.
3. That all members of the council report to council Headquarters
the names of o.en whom they con-sider to be fit cv.ndid«tcs for scoutrnastership.
4. That a lake be built v.t cor.-:p currier.
5. That a reliable means of transportation to camp currier be arranged
so that troops will have easy access to the car:'.!P at all times.
6. That at least eight boys representing the council attend the
Third International Jwnboree which will be held in Arrowe Park, Eirhenhead,
England from July 3Q to August 14th, 1929 at which at least 1,000
1v:cricon scouts are expected to attend.
7. That throUf'Jl educati ono.l publicity and other c.eans Dn• organized
effort be made to educate the public at large and especially heads of
churches and other institutions, as to the values of scouting, and by so
doing to assist in the formation of additional troops.
8. That Sea Scouting be given a proIJ.inent place ~n council activities
and a sailboat secured for the use of the Sea scouts.
scouting is a vital force in community welfare and is tremendously
helpful as a supplenent to the work of the Churches. In conclusion I
want to thank each and every one of you gentlemen who have so materially
helped in working out the scout prograu and I earnestly request your
continued help and support in making scouting available to the boys of
the Council area.
Respectfully submitted,
W. Gordon Morris

Chickasaw Co'UJlcil has received a tine amo-tmt of. puhlioity from this event, as
Mr. Harold w. Lewman. Regional Exeoutive. has. sent programs and other data
regarding the Exp~eition to all of the Councils in the Region in an endea.Tor
to stimulate them to simi.lar ac.liTities. Due to the generosit7 of the Rotary
Club hundreds of tree tickets we:re distributed so th.at all boys in Memphis
might have the opportaity of seeing the Exposition. TJ+eretore, the Exposi•
tion lost about $500.00. which the Rotary Club pa.id. We are d.eepl7 indebted
to the .Rotarians for this aplendid cooperation in showing the public: what
Scouts eaa do and. I ·want to thank Mr. Allen and Mr. llf.raes for thelr untiring
eff'orts which made the hposi tion such a wonderi'ul sugceea •.

Camp Currier is beoominc increasingly valuable to ctur Sco~s but I do
not believe 1t will ever reach the fullest extent 0£ its usetul.aess until a
lake is built. When this .camp was purchased the 'boys were p:romise4 a lake
and the majority of the troopst cabins a.re built near the propead lake site.
It seems to me that our CO'Oneil is morallf bound to build a lake in 1939•

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

REPO RT
OF
CAMP
CU-RR I ER
C 0 MM I T T E E
I
During the past year camp Currier has been used very much more than
in any previou s year of its history , despite the fact that only one special day,
the Saturday followin g the close of the Memphis public schools last June, was
made a big day for all scouts. During the summer vacation only four days passed without scouts being at camp.
Jf
The total scout-da y attendan ce for the year was 1,941, more than
wice as large as any previou s record, indicati ng that the normal use of this
wildern ess camp attracts more scouts than can be secured even when extraord inary inducem ents are used to increase the attendan ce. The total of other visitors was 874.
j
'

The Committee is very gratefu l to Mrs. Elizabe th B. currier for
the splendid financi al help that she has given us this year. Mrs. Currier
has donated $600.00 for the use of the camp and this money has been of tremendous help in carrying on the many activiti es of the camp. Without it the
program would have been serious ly handicap ped and we deeply appreci ate her
splendid generos ity.
This year the camp has suffered no damage from fire or otherwis e;
its use as an asylum for wild life is better respecte d and is becoming popular
with the local community; and the only serious persona l injury during the year
was an acciden tal lick inflicte d in play that resulted in a cut on the head
which did not go through the scalp. The scout was given immedia te First Aid
treatmen t and suffered no ill effects .
In 1928 cabin-b uilding had practic ally come to a standsti ll., whereas in 1929 two cabins whose constru ction had been lagging were complete d, four
new ones have been begun and finished , two others have been started, and the
felling of trees for.cabi n materia l has been commenced by four troops. There
are now eight complete d cabins on the camp, owned by Troops 5, 16, 19, 25, 29,
33, 34, and 41.
The program of the year at Camp currier has aroused more interest
than ever before as is evidence d by the larger number of scouts particip ating
in camp activiti es. This should warrant a more portenti ous schedule for the
coming year. That is, more activiti es should be encourag ed outside of th~
work in constru cting cabins and making other improvem ents. It is the plan of
the camp directo r to increase the scope of these activiti es as fast as the
boys can be lead to take up all lines of real backwoods pursuit s.

The court of Honor this year has been more rigid in its require ments of the boyst activit ies in passing merit badges and the standar ds
require d have been raised. This has resulte d in a decreas e in the n1.llllber
of badges awarde d, but the commit tee feels that this is the best method
to
pursue as it insures more thoroug h work and a more unders tanding knowled
ge
of the individ ual subjec ts.

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

KIMA
COMMITTEE
The attendance at Kamp Kia Kimat s 14th season was a disappointment,
as only 180 boys attended. the camp as compared to 211 in 1928. This lack of
attendance caused the ca1,1p to lose i>1oney, the deficiency being $432. 72. This
was taken care of through funds provided by the Memphis cornmuni ty Fund. F:very
effort was made to conserve our money and we spent only $541.79 for equipment
in 1929 as compared to $65.7. 43 spent in 1928.
The camp now has a splendid stone hospital which :was completed before the beginning of the camping season this year and which was used for the
first time this season. This hospital was built accord.in~ to plans drawn by
Dr. J. c • .Ayres, a member of the ca.aping QorrLnittee who has worked long and
faithfully for the advancemE;n t of Kamp Kia Kima. The hospital overlooks the
river front and is very advantageously located. :rt is screened thoroughly,
has running water and a shower bath~ The hospitai was equipped with two hospital beds, the gift of the Gartley-Ramsay ·Hospital, an e:xainination table, the
gift of the ]aptist Hospital through Mr. George D. Sheats, Superintendent, and
a centrifuge, donated by Mr. Ed. Mercere of Gwinner Mercere' co. This building
has long been needed at camp and we are deeply indebted to the gentlemen who
have worked so faithfully to build and equip this splendid addition to our
camp.
The health of the camp was very good throughout the season with
the exception of a few cases of malaria. The camp doctor feels certain that
all malaria was brought to camp as all boys havi~g the disease had been treat~
ed for it before their arrival at camp. Four· times during the season boys
oil·ed all the old stumps, sloughs, and standing water within the radius of
one-half a mile of the camp, which was a very efficient method of preventing
mosquitos. There were only two accidents of any importance, one boy being
bitten by a snake and one staff member being injured in a fall. Kamp Kia Kima
is provided with Antivenin, which is the only known specific for snake poison,
and this prevented any injurious effect to the boy who was bitten by the copperhead, as the camp doctor administered this medicine immediately after the
accident.
A tennis court was built at carup this year and this provided one
of the. most popular activities in ca.mp. It was constantly used by the boys
and they derived much pleasure from it.
The camp headquarters which was given to Chickasaw Council through
the generosity of Mr. Edward M. Salomon last year, proved of tremendous help
to the director and all the boys in camp, as it provided a place for the library, a reception room for visitors and adequate space for the director• s office,
the camp bank, and the camp commissary,

REPORT
OF
READING
COMMITTEJll
your committee reports there has been a considerable increase in
the interest manifested by the scouts in 11 EOYS LIFE", the official magazine
of the Eoy scouts of A~erica and that a number of troops have taken advantage
of the offer of this magazine at one dollar per year when 5C% of the tro0p
subscribes at the time of the troop registration. This magazine is of tremendous interest to boys and it has been materially improved and developed
during the past year.
The books received at Kamp Kia Kima this season were by far superior to a.ny library which the camp has enjoyed in the past. The cossitt
Library has been of much help to us in arranging the selection of these books
and we want to thank them for their splendid cooperation.
under the new registration plan for scouters, all adult leaders
connected in any capacity with the scout movement will pay a registration fee
of $1. 00 per year and will receive the magazine 11 SCOUTING" after the council
Charter is renewed in 1930. This should be of material help in assisting the
leaders of the Council to keep informed of the progress and development of the
movement. our council members will not receive "SCOUTING" until July 1, 1930
unless they desire to pay a registration fee of $1.00 for the year ending
June 30, 1930.
we recommend:
l.
That each council member send one dollar to the scout Executive
to be used in registering himself as a scouter and so receive the
magazine from now until July l, 1930.
2.
That in 1930 the Reading committee exerts every effort to make
11 EOYS LIFE"
available to all boys and especially scouts and that
the committee makes definite plans toward this end.
3.
That any member of the council having a surplus of good books
donate them for the library at camp currier which is gradually
growing though at present extremely small.

C 0 MM I T TE E.
S C0 U T
This is the first report of the sea Scout comnittee as your committee was authorized by the new constitution that went into effect January 1,
1929.
we believe sea scouting is one of the best means of holding the
older boy in the Scout movement, as the sea scout program is built for older
boys, that is from fifteen years of age and above. Chickasaw council now has
two ships of sea Scouts, the $. s. Sv Kia Kima and the s.s.s. Decatur.
We believe Memphis offers splendid opportunities for sea Scouting
but that it will be necessary for the council to have a boat before sea scouting will ever approach the efficiency it should have. Numerous efforts have
been made to secure a boat and w~. Edward M. salomon has generously agreei to
pay the freight and overhauling charges on a boat whenever the council can
secure one from the Navy Department. .A. number of efforts have been made to
get a suitable boat but on account of _the poor condition of all the boats
available they have been rejected.
are still working to secure a boat
we feel it will be of mu.ch help towards the training, of our older boys and in
keeping them active in scouting.
we
as
For 1930 we recommend:
1.
That a boat at least thirty feet long be secured for use of sea
scouts under the direction and control of the Council through the
Scout Executive.
2.
That at least $500.00 be provided in the Coun·cn budget for Sea
Scouting.
3.
That at least two additional sea scout troops be organized and
that additional ships be formed whenever facilities are available.

�REPORT OF TRAINING COMMITTEE (Continued)
For 1930 we recomr~end that training schools be conducted for
s
scoutleader and that Specializat ion Courses be given, as· we feel that this
will continue the good work which has been done during the past year.
Trained leadership mea.~s efficient scoutmaster s and we therefore urge that
emphasis be placed on the training program for the 1930 activities.

REPORT
OF
TROOP
ORGA~IZATION
COMMITTE E
your Committee reports that during the year ep.ding December l, 1929
there were ten troops of white boys and four troops of negro boys organized.
Chickasaw Council now has fifty-one troops of white boys and six troops of
negro boys, a total of fifty-seven troops. This is a gain of 23.9% 1 inasmuch
as the Council had only forty-six troops last year, forty-four of which were
wh~te and two colored.
The .white troops organized this year are as follows:
Troop 15 - Bellevue :Baptist Church
Troop 3? • Springdale Methodist Church
Troop 39 - First United Lutheran Church
Troop 41 - Hernando, Mississippi
Troop 42 - .Eastern Heigh.ts Baptist Church
Troop 44 - Olive ]ranch, Mississippi
Troop 48 - Southside Methodist Church
Troop 53 - National Avenue Baptist Church
Troop 57 - Horn Lake, Mississippi
Troop 59 - Capleville Baptist Church
The four negro troops organized are as follows:
Troop 102 - Metropolitan Baptist Church
Troop 103 - Mount Olive Q. M. E· Church
Troop 104 - Mount Pisgah
c.
M. E· Church
Troop 105 - Gospel Temple :Baptist Church
Your committee is glad to report that steady progress has been made
in organizing troops in the Baptist Churches of Memphis. In 1928 there were
only two troops sponsored by :Baptist Churches in the council ~rea, but at the
close of this year we have eight troops sponsored by Baptist Churches, four

�REPORT OF TROOP' ORGANIZATION COMMITTEE (Continued)
of wnich were organized this. year, and two troops being transferred from the
sponsorship of other institution s to :Baptist Churches. we are ma.king every
effort to organize troops in some of the larger Baptist Churches which have
never sponsored troops and we feel confident that in another year the percentage of Baptist Churches sponsoring troops will compare favorably with the
other denominatio ns.
In addition to the white troops above mentioned, troops have been
organized in two·negro ~aptist Churches, making a total of three negro ~roops
in Baptist Churchesf
your comtnittee is proud of this record and we recommend that continual effort be put on the organizatio n of troops in Baptist Churches in
1930.
We are ·also glad to report that the number. of troops outside of
Memphis proper has· been increased from eight in 1928 to thirteen in 1929. we
recommend that the Troop organizatio n comnittee makes especial efforts in 1930
to extend the privileges of scouting to the boys in the council Area outside
of Memphis.
·
For 1930 ·we recommend that at least ten new troops be organized
for wnite·boys and that new troops be organized for colored boys whenever in
the judgment of the president of the council and the Executive Board the colored institution s are capable of supporting scout troops.

ANNUAL l1iEETING, DECEMBER 12, 1929.

S CO UT
E XE.CU T I V E
On December 1, 1929, Chickasaw council had fifty-one troops of
white boys ai1d six troops of negro boys, a total of fifty-seven troops as
compared to forty-four troops of white boys and two troops of negro boys last
year, a net gain of eleven troops or 23.90fa. This is the largest number of
active troops our council has ever had and if present plans are carried out
we should easily have seventy troops by the end of 1930, a most encouraging
outlook for our future growth. In 1928 only two of our troops were sponsored
by :Baptist Churches, but this year, through the efforts bf M;r. Jack Gates,
six additional churches have sponsored troops and we now have eight troops in
:Baptist Churches •
. It has been our policy to organize new troops with the minimum
number. of eight boys and let them· gradually increase rather than to attempt
to start with a large number of boys. This has proven a very satisfactory
policy in that it has insured troop permanency. However, it has somewhat retarded our growth in numbers. we now have 1,238 scouts as compared to 1,137
last year, a gain of .Bfb. The national average of scouts per troop is 21.2
while our average is 21.7, so even though our gain in numbers has been small
we are still somewhat better than the average. In 1930 our average of scouts
per troop should be materially increased, for recruiting is constantly going
on and the new troops organized this year will soon be recruited up to the
average number.
our troops are enjoying splendid leadership and every troop has an
active adult leader directing its program. Two troops are being led by adult
Assistant Scoutmasters who are carrying on during the absence from the city of
the scoutmasters; one troop is being led by an Assistant Scoutmaster who will
shortly be commissioned as scoutmaster and one troop is being led by a member
of the Troop cormnittee (who was formerly scoutmaster), until a new scoutmaster
can be secured. The remaining !ifty-three troops have scoutrilasters in charge.
From this it will be seen that every troop is enjoying good leadership and I
want to take this opportunity to express to the scoutmasters and the Assistant
scoutmasters of Chickasaw council my sincere appreciation of their splendid
help and cooperation in all the activities of the Council during the past year.
This year our scouts have been extremely active in community service and they have done numerous civic good turns which are well worthy of
mention. Their biggest job was the distribution of fifty thousand cards giving directions for the control of mosquito breeding. ]]Very troop in MeII!Phis
was needed for this work which was under the direction of Dr, L· M. Graves of
the Department of Health. our boys did this job and did it well. During the
meeting of the American Bar Association, scouts served as pages. Through the
courtesy of professor R· L· Jones, each scout page was released from school
page 25.
�REPORT OF SCOUT EXECUTIVE (continued)
for the day he served. During the first week of the meeting ten boys were on
duty each day and for the second week thirty boys were used each day, so that
more than two hundred scouts from the different troops in Memphis helped in
this good turn. our boys have also done many other forms of civic service in
distributing posters for the Shelby Council Anti-Tuberculosis society, helping
the community Fund, directing traffic at the Dedication of the I'tfu.nicipal Airport, controlling the crowds during the Spirit of Christmas parade, as well
as numerous other good turns which required .but a few boys. I feel sure every
man in the council is proud of this record of service to the community.
The camp program has been very successful and more boys have had
the benefit of learning nature's secrets through living in the great out-ofdoors tha.~ ever before. At Kamp Kia Kima the attendance was slightly smaller
than last year but the boys thoroughly enjoyad themselves. At Camp currier
the attendance was niore than doubled and the boys are ming this camp in increasing numbers. Our two camps are of tremendous benefit to our boys and we
should feel proud of our camp equipment. The greatest need we have in our
camping program is swimming facilities at car:ip currier. A lake is badly needed but until such a time as funds are available for its construction I feel
sure we should provide some sort of swimming pool for the boys. This feature
will attract hundreds of boys and will give the camp a tremendous added attraction.
Our indoor program ho.s also been tremendously successful, as the
inter-troop rally tournrunent which has been running for about three months has
been the means of helping many troops to learn their weaknesses in scouting
technique and has brought them to a much higher standard of efficiency. These
rallies have been splendidly handled by commissioner Mathews and the District
commissioners and have been the source of tremendous interest among the boys.
Early in 1930 we plan to have the finals of the tournament at the Auditoriura
and this should be a big event in the new year. We are .indebted to the
"Memphis EVening Appeal" for the silver loving cup which will be awarded to
the winner.
The council is indebted to Commissioner Ross .A.. Mathews, Mr. Willard
Hays, Mr. William G. Hall, Mr. Allen Hughes, Jr., Mr. :sen :s. Coffey, Mr. Joe
Flanagan, and ~~. Harry Myers for the splendid work they did in the training
school for scoutleaders, as the school wns of mu.ch help to the men who took the
training. The council is also indebted. to far. :Ben Coffey for his splendid w9:r;k
in leading a specialization course in First Aid.
·
ScaQting among negro boys is progressing slowly but surely. In
1929 four troops of negro boys were organized so that we now have six troops
in the council. The Executive Board has authorized the addition of four more
troops ond these are now being organized. I am glad to say there has been no
objection to the use of the scout program by the negro boys by any of our
white Scoutleaders or scouts and there has not been the slightest friction between white and negro scouts.
At the Inter-National Jamboree which was held in :Birkenhead, England, our council was represented by scout William Robert Neill, Jr. we
page 26.
�REPORT OF SCOUT EXECUTIVE (Continued)
planned to have patrol to attend this Jamboree but owing to our financial situation only one boy was able to go and he had to pay his own expenses.
Through the splendid work of our officers and the Executive Board
as well as the wembers of the various comr::d.tt~es, our council has made considerable progress during the past year~ a.."'1.d. I want to take this opportunity to
express to these gentlemen my deep and sincere appreciatio n for the splendid
cooperation and help that they have given me in everything that has been done.
Many demands have been· ma.de for time that some of our r!lembers could ill afford
to give, l.llld I want to thank you all for the thought you have given, sacrifices you have made, and the real work that has been done that the council
r.Jight give to our boys every opportunity to becorrie better citizens through the
L1anifold ad.vantages Of Scouting.
In planning the work of the COJ.ncil for 1930 I recomnend:
vi.
That special emphasis be placed on the training of leaders and that
two training schools for wh.ite leaders and one for negro leaders be
conducted.,
That a lake be built at camp Currier. I feel confident that attendance will more than double when swinoing facilities are available
at the camp and I believe a lake will stimulate not only the boys
but will create i~creased interest in scouting araong the parents
and the supporting constituenc y of the council.
That oore boys be recruited in our various troops and that fifteen
new troops be organized.
4.
That a budget of $20,000.00 for council operation be made available.
Our council has been handicapped for a number of years through lack
of f1111ds and in discussir;.g our budget with national officers I find
they are unanir.iously agreed that $20,000.00 is the mininum budget
required for real progress in a council the size of ours.
That
we
have a i:1eri t badge exposition si::1ilar to the one held in
cor~di tion will pernit.
1928 provided our financial
That we r.'.laintain high sta;.1dards in all events involved in scouting
technique and especially in the award of merit badges. This r:-iay
result in a fewer nusber of i:,eri t badges being taken but will improve and build up the quality of scouting among our boys.
7.
That Sea Sco-~ting be given a higher place in the Council's activities a;.id that a boat be provided for the use of our sea scout Ships.
8.
That we give the advantages of the scout program to negro boys whenever and wherever troops can be organized under proper leadership
and supervision .

Thnt every effort be oode through educational publicity and other
~.<eons to educe: te the public at large and especially the heads of

as to the values of scout training.
That all r:i.e•;:ibers of the council rJDke a sustained effort to secure

in troops and on the council.

scouting is a vital force in our corx.mni ty and is trew.endousl y
helpful as a supple1:1e11t to the work of the churches. With the support of our
Council l1ieubers and other scoutleader s, there is no doubt but what we will go

OUR SCOUT HERO
The court of Honor feels that Chickasaw council should give especial
recognition to the heroism of scout James Edgar Hopper of Troop 8 who
lost his life in rescuing his younger sister from their burning home.
In the early morning of September 5, 1929, James was awakened by
smoke and flar~es in his room on the second story of his home in Buntyn. The
fire had reached such proportions it was impossible to get out of the house
by way of the stairs. With rare presence of mind, J~aes awakened his sister,
improvised a _rope of sheets from the bed, and with great difficulty lowered
her from the second story to the ground in safety, even though his clothes
were in flames. After the girl was on the ground Ja,i:les jumped, but in effecting
the rescue he had been so severely burned that he died in the Baptist
Hospital a few hours later.
This boy lived scouting and his training was of much help to him
throughout the tragedy according to his own statement to a newspaper reporter
after he reached the hospital. we feel that all honor is due James Hopper
for his splendid act and we are now trying to secure a posthumous award of
the Honor Medal for life saving. we feel this glorious deed in which a scout
thought of others before hir.iself is one of the finest acts of heroism in the
history of Chickasaw council.

~ : REPORT OF ACTIVITIES C 0 M M I T T E E
Again I feel that my report for the year of 1929 should deal with
the activities and the spirit of -the 'adult- leaders of the Chickasaw council,
for without this unselfish service scouting would of a necessity fail, as the
success of the whole program is founded on the efficient leadership of our
scout leaders.
I have been in personal con tact with practically every troop in our
Council during the year and as a whole I would say that the troops have adequate
leadership, but in some instances I have found the scoutmasters are
sadly in need of training such as could be given at a scoutleaders' training
school and I am of the opinion that a scoutleaders• training school should be
held as soon as possible after this meeting for the purpose of further educating
the scoutmasters.
At the present time we are in no particular need of scoutmasters,
but we could use advantageously Assistant scoutmasters and District commissioners,
as the commissioner's staff now only has about four men that can be
depended on to serve when called upon. During the past year, we have adopted
a new plan for the commissioner• s staff which, with the small staff we have
had,.has worked out very proficiently but has, of course, suffered from lack
of man power. I feel that the commissioner's staff should be composed of no
less than ten men and could very well utilize fifteen, and I would recommend
that an appeal be ma.de to the lwicheon clubs to send at least one man to the
next scoutleaderst training school with the view of having him become a
D~strict Commissioner.
The off ice of Deputy Commissioner has been efficiently filled this
year by Allen Hughes, Jr., but he has tendered his resignation, thus leaving
a very i~ortant vacancy, and I feel that careful consideration should be
given to the man who is to occupy this position as he is not only the Deputy
com:nissioner, but is an ex-officio member of every standing committee and
should necessarily be a man trained in the technique of scouting and in the
spirit of the organization.
A city-wide rally tournament was inaugurated in October of this ·
year and will come to a close in December at which time the winning troops
of each league will meet in a big rally to which all who are interested in
scouting are cordially invitedA This rally tournament has been a huge success
and h~s. I believe, increased the efficiency of each individual troop
at least 5C%, as it has given the boys a broader outlook on scouting and has
given them an insight into the activities and training of other troops of
the city. It has brought 'to the scoutmaster new ideas and ideals and has

REPORT OF ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE (Continued)
certainly served a very Useful purpose. However, I am of the opinion that
this tournament should not be an annual affair but semi-annual, and if possible,
the Merit Badge Exposition of 1928 should be repeated in 1930, as I
believe this was the most spectacular event Chickasaw council ever advocated.
There have been numerous other activities of the individual troops, but these
activities have been fully discussed in other reports and I see no need of
going into them at this time.
Chickasaw council had one :r;epresentative at the world Jamboree held
in Birkenhead., En.gland, when it should have had several, but I believe that
our failure to have more than one scout attend was possibly due to the lack
of education on the part of the parents of our scouts, and this education cannot
be had with the present limited budget of the Council, but if it were possible
to increase the bul.get of the publicity committee, I believe that we
would find ourselves amply repaid by the increased interest on the pa.rt of the
families of the scouts.·
In general, I wou.ld say that the troops are in the best condition
that they have eve.r been but that there is still room for improvement.

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

item which has been of material help is the fact that there is a hard-surface
road all the way up to and around the oval at camp headquarters. This has
enabled many people to go to camp who otherwise would not have attempted it.
Recommendations for 1930 are as follows:
~of a lake or at least. .-a---swfiiiilli~g ~~()1;-.,

2. The digging of two wells, in the remote sections of the camp so that
troops will be supplied with drinking water without having to come to
headquarters for it.
3. A shower bath should be installed with all boys given the privilege
of its use.
4. A substantial fence should be built entirely around the camp in order
to prevent the property from being overrun with the stock of neighboring
people.
('
5. All troops not having cabins should be encour~ged to build a cabin
during 1930 so that each troop can have its own head.quarters in camp.

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

The court of Honor this year has been more rigid in its requirements
of the boyst activities in passing merit badges and the standards
required have been raised. This has resulted in a decrease in the n1.llllber
of badges awarded, but the committee feels that this is the best method to
pursue as it insures more thorough work and a more understanding knowledge
of the individual subjects.

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

0 F I.A.MP KIA KIMA COMMITTEE
The attendance at Kamp Kia Kimat s 14th season was a disappointment,
as only 180 boys attended. the camp as compared to 211 in 1928. This lack of
attendance caused the ca1,1p to lose i>1oney, the deficiency being $432. 72. This
was taken care of through funds provided by the Memphis cornmuni ty Fund. F:very
effort was made to conserve our money and we spent only $541.79 for equipment
in 1929 as compared to $65.7. 43 spent in 1928.
The camp now has a splendid stone hospital which :was completed before
the beginning of the camping season this year and which was used for the
first time this season. This hospital was built accord.in~ to plans drawn by
Dr. J. c • .Ayres, a member of the ca.aping QorrLnittee who has worked long and
faithfully for the advancemE;n t of Kamp Kia Kima. The hospital overlooks the
river front and is very advantageously located. :rt is screened thoroughly,
has running water and a shower bath~ The hospitai was equipped with two hospital
beds, the gift of the Gartley-Ramsay ·Hospital, an e:xainination table, the
gift of the ]aptist Hospital through Mr. George D. Sheats, Superintendent, and
a centrifuge, donated by Mr. Ed. Mercere of Gwinner Mercere' co. This building
has long been needed at camp and we are deeply indebted to the gentlemen who
have worked so faithfully to build and equip this splendid addition to our
camp.
The health of the camp was very good throughout the season with
the exception of a few cases of malaria. The camp doctor feels certain that
all malaria was brought to camp as all boys havi~g the disease had been treat~
ed for it before their arrival at camp. Four· times during the season boys
oil·ed all the old stumps, sloughs, and standing water within the radius of
one-half a mile of the camp, which was a very efficient method of preventing
mosquitos. There were only two accidents of any importance, one boy being
bitten by a snake and one staff member being injured in a fall. Kamp Kia Kima
is provided with Antivenin, which is the only known specific for snake poison,
and this prevented any injurious effect to the boy who was bitten by the copperhead,
as the camp doctor administered this medicine immediately after the
accident.
A tennis court was built at carup this year and this provided one
of the. most popular activities in ca.mp. It was constantly used by the boys
and they derived much pleasure from it.
The camp headquarters which was given to Chickasaw Council through
the generosity of Mr. Edward M. Salomon last year, proved of tremendous help
to the director and all the boys in camp, as it provided a place for the library,
a reception room for visitors and adequate space for the director• s office,
the camp bank, and the camp commissary,

OF OUTFITTERS C 0 M M I T T E E
This is the first annual report of the Outfitters committee as
your comri~ttee was authorized by the new constitution of Chickasaw council
which went into effect January 1 1 1929.
The various members of the committee have inspected the stock
of scou. t supplies carried by the three outfitters, The New Brys, J. Goldsmith
and sons, and Phil A. Halle, and found that they were adequate. Also
the members of the. committee have inspected the scout equipment displayed
by the outfitters and are glad to report that the three stores are cooperating
in displaying scout uniforms and equipment to advantnge.
one appli·cation to ·be the official scout ou.tfi tter has ·been received
by the committee from Oak Hall, but your committee deemed it wise to
confine the sale of scout supplies to the thr~e outfitters who have been
serving the council in the past, so long as these stores follow the instructions
laid down in the council constitution and cooperate with the council.
For 1930 ·Wfl recomr;iend that the conr:iittee inspect each outfitter
at least quarterly to ascertain the amount Of supplies carried, the displays
made in the stores of these supplies, and the displays made in the windows
by each store. we also recomr:~nd that the comi::llttee request each outfitter
to present a full window of scout supplies and equipment at least once each
quarter.

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

REPORT OF READING COMMITTEJll
your committee reports there has been a considerable increase in
the interest manifested by the scouts in 11 EOYS LIFE", the official magazine
of the Eoy scouts of A~erica and that a number of troops have taken advantage
of the offer of this magazine at one dollar per year when 5C% of the tro0p
subscribes at the time of the troop registration. This magazine is of tremendous
interest to boys and it has been materially improved and developed
during the past year.
The books received at Kamp Kia Kima this season were by far superior
to a.ny library which the camp has enjoyed in the past. The cossitt
Library has been of much help to us in arranging the selection of these books
and we want to thank them for their splendid cooperation.
under the new registration plan for scouters, all adult leaders
connected in any capacity with the scout movement will pay a registration fee
of $1. 00 per year and will receive the magazine 11 SCOUTING" after the council
Charter is renewed in 1930. This should be of material help in assisting the
leaders of the Council to keep informed of the progress and development of the
movement. our council members will not receive "SCOUTING" until July 1, 1930
unless they desire to pay a registration fee of $1.00 for the year ending
June 30, 1930.
we recommend:
l. That each council member send one dollar to the scout Executive
to be used in registering himself as a scouter and so receive the
magazine from now until July l, 1930.
2. That in 1930 the Reading committee exerts every effort to make
11 EOYS LIFE" available to all boys and especially scouts and that
the committee makes definite plans toward this end.
3. That any member of the council having a surplus of good books
donate them for the library at camp currier which is gradually
growing though at present extremely small.

* * * *
OF SE.A. S C 0 U T C 0 MM I T TE E.
This is the first report of the sea Scout comnittee as your committee
was authorized by the new constitution that went into effect January 1,
1929.
we believe sea scouting is one of the best means of holding the
older boy in the Scout movement, as the sea scout program is built for older
boys, that is from fifteen years of age and above. Chickasaw council now has
two ships of sea Scouts, the $. s. Sv Kia Kima and the s.s.s. Decatur.
We believe Memphis offers splendid opportunities for sea Scouting
but that it will be necessary for the council to have a boat before sea scouting
will ever approach the efficiency it should have. Numerous efforts have
been made to secure a boat and w~. Edward M. salomon has generously agreei to
pay the freight and overhauling charges on a boat whenever the council can
secure one from the Navy Department. .A. number of efforts have been made to
get a suitable boat but on account of _the poor condition of all the boats
available they have been rejected. we are still working to secure a boat as
we feel it will be of mu.ch help towards the training, of our older boys and in
keeping them active in scouting.
For 1930 we recommend:
1. That a boat at least thirty feet long be secured for use of sea
scouts under the direction and control of the Council through the
Scout Executive.
2. That at least $500.00 be provided in the Coun·cn budget for Sea
Scouting.
3. That at least two additional sea scout troops be organized and
that additional ships be formed whenever facilities are available.

REPQRT O F TR.AINI NG COMMITTEE
The Training comrni ttee reports that during the year 1929 there
has been a great emphasis put on training of our scoutleaders, as we feel
that training is extremely important if the boys are to receive the full
benefits of Sc.outing from the leaders.
The Minimum course of the Five Year Training Program was given
to twenty-one men and seventeen of these men completed the course and received
t:1eir certificates. This was a very splendid course and was of material
help to tho men who attended. commissioner Ross A. Mathews acted as
Scoutmaster for the Training School, assisted by Willard E· Hays, Assistant
scoutmaster, District commissioner William. G. Hall as scribe, Deputy Commissioner
Allen Hughes, Jr., senior Patrol Leader, and Ben ]arry Coffey, Jr.,
scoutmaster of Troop 1, Joe FlaI1agan, scoutmaster of Troop 3, and Arnold
Houston, scoutmaster of Troop 50, as Patrol Leaders. rr.ti.ese men did splendid
work in their respective places and the Coui1cil is indebted to them for their
help.
We are also indebted to the y. M. c. A. for their courtesy in
allowing us their fti.cilities as well as a room for a meeting place for the
school. The Y. M. c • .A. has always been of much help to us in conducting
our training schools.
Under the leadership of scoutmaster ]en Coffey of Troop 1, a
First Aid course was conducted with twelve scou tleaders and seven scouts
enrolled. Nine of the scou tleaders received certificates and three scouts
were t.Wardod cards by the American Red cross. This course is a Specialization
Course and also applies on the Five Year Training Program for scoutleaders.
Mr. Coffey is due special recognition from the council for his
work in these and other training courses, as he has done especially well
and has been of tremendous help in the entire training program.
Scoutmaster Ben Coffey is now conducting a Specialization course
in ]ird study and also in Astronomy. These courses will be of much help to
our scoutleaders, as these courses will also apply on the Five Year Training
program.
The corrraittee has also conducted a training course for negro
Scoutleaders which was directed by J. A. Beauchamp, Assistant to Mr. Stanley
A. Harris, National Director of Inter-Racial Activities. Thirty-four men
attended this course at various times and seventeen men received eight hours
or more of training. This was of much help to the negro leaders, as they
are extremely interested and desired all the help they could receive. J. A.
Beauchamp is very efficie~t in his work with negro leaders and in conducting
the training school.
page 21.
REPORT OF TRAINING COMMITTEE (Continued)
For 1930 we recomr~end that training schools be conducted for
scoutleaders and that Specialization Courses be given, as· we feel that this
will continue the good work which has been done during the past year.
Trained leadership mea.~s efficient scoutmasters and we therefore urge that
emphasis be placed on the training program for the 1930 activities.

REPORT OF TROOP ORGA~IZATION COMMITTEE
your Committee reports that during the year ep.ding December l, 1929
there were ten troops of white boys and four troops of negro boys organized.
Chickasaw Council now has fifty-one troops of white boys and six troops of
negro boys, a total of fifty-seven troops. This is a gain of 23.9% 1 inasmuch
as the Council had only forty-six troops last year, forty-four of which were
wh~te and two colored.
The .white troops organized this year are as follows:
Troop 15 - Bellevue :Baptist Church
Troop 3? • Springdale Methodist Church
Troop 39 - First United Lutheran Church
Troop 41 - Hernando, Mississippi
Troop 42 - .Eastern Heigh.ts Baptist Church
Troop 44 - Olive ]ranch, Mississippi
Troop 48 - Southside Methodist Church
Troop 53 - National Avenue Baptist Church
Troop 57 - Horn Lake, Mississippi
Troop 59 - Capleville Baptist Church
The four negro troops organized are as follows:
Troop 102 - Metropolitan Baptist Church
Troop 103 - Mount Olive Q. M. E· Church
Troop 104 - Mount Pisgah c. M. E· Church
Troop 105 - Gospel Temple :Baptist Church
Your committee is glad to report that steady progress has been made
in organizing troops in the Baptist Churches of Memphis. In 1928 there were
only two troops sponsored by :Baptist Churches in the council ~rea, but at the
close of this year we have eight troops sponsored by Baptist Churches, four
page 2~.·
REPORT OF TROOP' ORGANIZATION COMMITTEE (Continued)
of wnich were organized this. year, and two troops being transferred from the
sponsorship of other institutions to :Baptist Churches. we are ma.king every
effort to organize troops in some of the larger Baptist Churches which have
never sponsored troops and we feel confident that in another year the percentage
of Baptist Churches sponsoring troops will compare favorably with the
other denominations.
In addition to the white troops above mentioned, troops have been
organized in two·negro ~aptist Churches, making a total of three negro ~roops
in Baptist Churchesf
your comtnittee is proud of this record and we recommend that continual
effort be put on the organization of troops in Baptist Churches in
1930.
We are ·also glad to report that the number. of troops outside of
Memphis proper has· been increased from eight in 1928 to thirteen in 1929. we
recommend that the Troop organization comnittee makes especial efforts in 1930
to extend the privileges of scouting to the boys in the council Area outside
of Memphis. ·
For 1930 ·we recommend that at least ten new troops be organized
for wnite·boys and that new troops be organized for colored boys whenever in
the judgment of the president of the council and the Executive Board the colored
institutions are capable of supporting scout troops.

CHICKASAW COUNCIL, :B. S. A.
ANNUAL l1iEETING, DECEMBER 12, 1929.
* * * *
R E P 0 R T 0 F S CO UT E XE.CU T I V E
On December 1, 1929, Chickasaw council had fifty-one troops of
white boys ai1d six troops of negro boys, a total of fifty-seven troops as
compared to forty-four troops of white boys and two troops of negro boys last
year, a net gain of eleven troops or 23.90fa. This is the largest number of
active troops our council has ever had and if present plans are carried out
we should easily have seventy troops by the end of 1930, a most encouraging
outlook for our future growth. In 1928 only two of our troops were sponsored
by :Baptist Churches, but this year, through the efforts bf M;r. Jack Gates,
six additional churches have sponsored troops and we now have eight troops in
:Baptist Churches •
. It has been our policy to organize new troops with the minimum
number. of eight boys and let them· gradually increase rather than to attempt
to start with a large number of boys. This has proven a very satisfactory
policy in that it has insured troop permanency. However, it has somewhat retarded
our growth in numbers. we now have 1,238 scouts as compared to 1,137
last year, a gain of .Bfb. The national average of scouts per troop is 21.2
while our average is 21.7, so even though our gain in numbers has been small
we are still somewhat better than the average. In 1930 our average of scouts
per troop should be materially increased, for recruiting is constantly going
on and the new troops organized this year will soon be recruited up to the
average number.
our troops are enjoying splendid leadership and every troop has an
active adult leader directing its program. Two troops are being led by adult
Assistant Scoutmasters who are carrying on during the absence from the city of
the scoutmasters; one troop is being led by an Assistant Scoutmaster who will
shortly be commissioned as scoutmaster and one troop is being led by a member
of the Troop cormnittee (who was formerly scoutmaster), until a new scoutmaster
can be secured. The remaining !ifty-three troops have scoutrilasters in charge.
From this it will be seen that every troop is enjoying good leadership and I
want to take this opportunity to express to the scoutmasters and the Assistant
scoutmasters of Chickasaw council my sincere appreciation of their splendid
help and cooperation in all the activities of the Council during the past year.
This year our scouts have been extremely active in community service
and they have done numerous civic good turns which are well worthy of
mention. Their biggest job was the distribution of fifty thousand cards giving
directions for the control of mosquito breeding. ]]Very troop in MeII!Phis
was needed for this work which was under the direction of Dr, L· M. Graves of
the Department of Health. our boys did this job and did it well. During the
meeting of the American Bar Association, scouts served as pages. Through the
courtesy of professor R· L· Jones, each scout page was released from school
page 25.
REPORT OF SCOUT EXECUTIVE (continued)
for the day he served. During the first week of the meeting ten boys were on
duty each day and for the second week thirty boys were used each day, so that
more than two hundred scouts from the different troops in Memphis helped in
this good turn. our boys have also done many other forms of civic service in
distributing posters for the Shelby Council Anti-Tuberculosis society, helping
the community Fund, directing traffic at the Dedication of the I'tfu.nicipal Airport,
controlling the crowds during the Spirit of Christmas parade, as well
as numerous other good turns which required .but a few boys. I feel sure every
man in the council is proud of this record of service to the community.
The camp program has been very successful and more boys have had
the benefit of learning nature's secrets through living in the great out-ofdoors
tha.~ ever before. At Kamp Kia Kima the attendance was slightly smaller
than last year but the boys thoroughly enjoyad themselves. At Camp currier
the attendance was niore than doubled and the boys are ming this camp in increasing
numbers. Our two camps are of tremendous benefit to our boys and we
should feel proud of our camp equipment. The greatest need we have in our
camping program is swimming facilities at car:ip currier. A lake is badly needed
but until such a time as funds are available for its construction I feel
sure we should provide some sort of swimming pool for the boys. This feature
will attract hundreds of boys and will give the camp a tremendous added attraction.
Our indoor program ho.s also been tremendously successful, as the
inter-troop rally tournrunent which has been running for about three months has
been the means of helping many troops to learn their weaknesses in scouting
technique and has brought them to a much higher standard of efficiency. These
rallies have been splendidly handled by commissioner Mathews and the District
commissioners and have been the source of tremendous interest among the boys.
Early in 1930 we plan to have the finals of the tournament at the Auditoriura
and this should be a big event in the new year. We are .indebted to the
"Memphis EVening Appeal" for the silver loving cup which will be awarded to
the winner.
The council is indebted to Commissioner Ross .A.. Mathews, Mr. Willard
Hays, Mr. William G. Hall, Mr. Allen Hughes, Jr., Mr. :sen :s. Coffey, Mr. Joe
Flanagan, and ~~. Harry Myers for the splendid work they did in the training
school for scoutleaders, as the school wns of mu.ch help to the men who took the
training. The council is also indebted. to far. :Ben Coffey for his splendid w9:r;k
in leading a specialization course in First Aid. ·
ScaQting among negro boys is progressing slowly but surely. In
1929 four troops of negro boys were organized so that we now have six troops
in the council. The Executive Board has authorized the addition of four more
troops ond these are now being organized. I am glad to say there has been no
objection to the use of the scout program by the negro boys by any of our
white Scoutleaders or scouts and there has not been the slightest friction between
white and negro scouts.
At the Inter-National Jamboree which was held in :Birkenhead, England,
our council was represented by scout William Robert Neill, Jr. we
page 26.
REPORT OF SCOUT EXECUTIVE (Continued)
planned to have patrol to attend this Jamboree but owing to our financial situation
only one boy was able to go and he had to pay his own expenses.
Through the splendid work of our officers and the Executive Board
as well as the wembers of the various comr::d.tt~es, our council has made considerable
progress during the past year~ a.."'1.d. I want to take this opportunity to
express to these gentlemen my deep and sincere appreciation for the splendid
cooperation and help that they have given me in everything that has been done.
Many demands have been· ma.de for time that some of our r!lembers could ill afford
to give, l.llld I want to thank you all for the thought you have given, sacrifices
you have made, and the real work that has been done that the council
r.Jight give to our boys every opportunity to becorrie better citizens through the
L1anifold ad.vantages Of Scouting.

In planning the work of the COJ.ncil for 1930 I recomnend:
That special emphasis be placed on the training of leaders and that
two training schools for wh.ite leaders and one for negro leaders be
conducted.,
That a lake be built at camp Currier. I feel confident that attendance
will more than double when swinoing facilities are available
at the camp and I believe a lake will stimulate not only the boys
but will create i~creased interest in scouting araong the parents
and the supporting constituency of the council.
That oore boys be recruited in our various troops and that fifteen
new troops be organized.
That a budget of $20,000.00 for council operation be made available.
Our council has been handicapped for a number of years through lack
of f1111ds and in discussir;.g our budget with national officers I find
they are unanir.iously agreed that $20,000.00 is the mininum budget
required for real progress in a council the size of ours.
That we have a i:1eri t badge exposition si::1ilar to the one held in
1928 provided our financial cor~di tion will pernit.
That we r.'.laintain high sta;.1dards in all events involved in scouting
technique and especially in the award of merit badges. This r:-iay
result in a fewer nusber of i:,eri t badges being taken but will improve
and build up the quality of scouting among our boys.
That Sea Sco-~ting be given a higher place in the Council's activities
a;.id that a boat be provided for the use of our sea scout Ships.
8. That we give the advantages of the scout program to negro boys whenever
and wherever troops can be organized under proper leadership
and supervision.
page 27.
REPORT OF SCOUT EXECUTIVE (Continued)
9. Thnt every effort be oode through educational publicity and other
~.<eons to educe: te the public at large and especially the heads of
churches and other institutions which i:U.ght sponsor scout troops,
as to the values of scout training.
10. That all r:i.e•;:ibers of the council rJDke a sustained effort to secure
r.1011 whor.1 they consider fit candidates for positions of leadership
in troops and on the council.
scouting is a vital force in our corx.mni ty and is trew.endously
helpful as a supple1:1e11t to the work of the churches. With the support of our
Council l1ieubers and other scoutleaders, there is no doubt but what we will go
forw-':1I'd in 1930, and I earnestly ask your continued cooperation in 'Jaking
scou tL1g available to the boys of the council .Area.

SCOUT FIRST AID
S.ept. 28, 1930
To 'rb.e Comnercial Appeal,
M~mphis, Tenn.
While travelling through your city, rrw car was struck by another. The windshield broke, cutting me badly. A young man descended from a street car and rendered first aid.
Had it not been for him I am sure I would have lost considerable blood. He bound my cuts as well as an experienced doctor.
He sa:ys he learned first aid in the Scouts.
I offered him. sev.eral d.ollars which he politely refused.
The young man was a big, husky young chap and is a fine example of Scout training.
Let me take this opportunity of heartily endorsing the Boy
Scout movement. It is raising the boys of .America in the ideals
of public service.
It is a wonderful organization.
Very truly yours,
L.
c.
Morrels,
Ohio.
Cleve~~
**** *** ** ************************ * ****
Life Scout Eill Dellarrw of Troop l rendered the service mentioned in the above letter. He gave first aid as his Daily Good
Turn and did not report the., accident to his Scoutmaster or to Scout
Headquarters. He "did the job as a Scout should; efficiently, quietly and without bragging about his accomplishment. The Council had
no knowledge of Bill's splendid ~ork until the letter from Mr.
Morrels was published over·a month ~fter the accident and then the
information was secured only after diligent inquiry. We honor ~ill
Bellarey- as a true Scout who is putting into practice in his daily
life the Scout Oath and Law.

REPORT
OF
.ACTIVITIES
COMMITTEE
The Activities Committee is proud of the work which has been accomplished during the past year. We feel that the Council is indeed. fortunate in having such a splendid group of men who are actively serving with
the troops. Every troop has a Scoutmaster and a large majority of them have
one or more Assistant Scoutmasters. This has resulted in the boys participating very actively in all Cou;.1cil activities.
The Inter-Troop Rally Tournament which ran for ~b,ut three months
in 1929 and 30 has proved a tremendous success. In this to
ment the
troops are divided up into leagues, each league having an In ian name. The
rallies are run on schedule and each rally contains a number of Scouting
events such as Inspection, O'Gracy Drill, First Aid, Fire by Flint and Steel,
Semaphore Signalling, Knot Tying, and Morse Signalling. Participation of
troops in these rallies has resulted in an increased stimulation in the technique of Scouting and we feel that much good has resulted from these rallies.
Another Inter-Troop Ra.lly Tournament will start on December 12th
and will run well into the new year.
The Activities Committee has had a great deal of help from a
splendid group of men who are serving as District Commissioners and as referees for rallies. All the leagues in the Inter-Troop Rally Tournament with
one exception are supervised by District Corrmissioners. We now have a Commissioner, a Deputy Commissioner, and eight District Commissioners actively
working with the troops, whereas, last year
had only one or two men who
could be counted on to serve in the capacity of a District Comrnissioner"i.
wo
We feel that the general condition of the troops of Chickasaw
Council is good. There aro some troops who are weak in Scouting technique
and they consequently need nm.ch help from Headquarters and from the District
Commissioners. Je therefore recommend that every effort be made. to continue
to secui·e efficient men to serve as District Com.~issioners and that the Council follow up the plan of Intor-Troop Rallies from year to year.
Respectfully submitted,
ACTIVITIES COMMITT.EE

CAMP
CURRIE R
C 0 MM I T T E E
is proud of the splendid record of Camp Currier.
has undoubtedly had the ber.t year in its history
more bttllding of cabins, larger attendance, and
before.
As of December 1st, there are 15 complete cabins on the camp as
compared to 8 cabins which were complete on December l~ 1929. These completed cabins are owned by Troops 5, 8, 15, 16, 19, 25, 27, 29, 33, 34, 40,
41 1 49, 50, and the Kelley Cabin which is owned by the Council.. Last year
thore were only 5 cabins in course of constructio n, whereas, on this date
we have 9 cabins on which the troops are buildingo 6 of these caoins were
Gtarted this year. Troops 6, 7, 9, 11, 13, 32, 38, 43, and 66 are working
on cabins at the present time. All of these cabins, with the exception of
Troops 9, 11, and 13 were started in 1930. We are very ple?-sed at the unuaual amount of building which has taken place in camp, especially in view
of the depressed financial conditions which have existed for the last six
01· eight months.
The equipment of the camp on December 1, 1930, therefo're, is the
Headquarter s Cabin with pUinp house and garage, the old Burrows Cabin with
stable and cistern, the Lone Stable and cistern, and the new Kelley Cabin
and cistern, all of these being owned by the Council, together with 14 troop
cabins complete and in use, and the 9 troop cabins in course of constructio n.
Plans for the cabins of Troops 21 and 56 have been approved and these troops
will undoUbtedly start work in t.he near futureo
gre~test
single improvement to the camp during the year was
The
the constructio n o;J~a swimming pool 60 feet wide and 120 feet long and 6!
feet deep. It was dug in a valley near the central part of the ca1"1p and has
the appearance of a natural pool rather than an artificial swimming pool.
There is a continuous flow of spring water wi1ich results in its being kept
unusually pure. Particular attention has been given to the prevention of
accidents and there has not been a single accident during this year. 175
Black Bass Fingerlings were put in the stream which feeds the pool and good
fishing should result within the next few years~
The attendance at camp has been the largest in its history due,
we believe, principally to the swimming facilities provided by the pool. In
1930 there was a total.of 3,564 Scout days as compared to 1,941 last year,
an increase of 83.6% in the nuinber of Scout dayso In 1930 1,327 people visited the c~p as compared with 874 ih 1929 or an increase of 51.8%0
One of the most important steps toward the welfare of the future
of the camp was the starting of the Camp Currier lake Fund, which plan was
originated by Mrs. Elizabeth B. Currier of Geneva, Switzerland . Mrs. Currier
donated $300.00 toward this fund and it is the plan to keep it in the savings
bank and add to it whenever donations are received. This fund has for its
�REPORT OF CAMP CURRIER COMMITTEE (Continued)
purpose the building of a dam across one of the valleys in the northwestern
part of the camp. When this dam is constructed there will be a body of
water formed of approximately 25 acreso We believe that this fund will continue to grow and we wish to express our deep appreciation to Mrs. Currier
for the idea and also for her gonerosi ty in starting it. We are also indebted to Mrs •. Currier for many donations which she .has given to the camp
from time to time, as her generosity has resulted in tremendous improvements
of the car.1p.
The problem of transportation has been solved to a large extent
by making the program and attractions of the camp so alluring that the boys
find wa;ys of their own to travel back and forth.
Eternal vigilance and the presence of so many Scouts and visitors has reduced poaching so that it is no longer a serious menace and the
people in the comraunity around the ca.~p have recognized the importance of
this caDp preserve and have given it their ooral support and protection.
Lack of wells to supply drinking water is one of the most desperate needs of the canp. Troops which are cnr.1ping at the northern end of
ca.inp have approximately a mile to travel in order to get drinking watero
Therefore, we recornr:i.end that at least two wells be constructed during 1931
so that troops may be supplied with drinking water without having to go to
Headquarters for it.
We also recoL~Jend that a substantial fence be built entirely around the cm~p and that the cooperation·of the neighbors owni~g adjoining
land be secured~lding this fence.
We further recor.~~end that all troops shall be encouraged to build
cabins during 1931 so that eac:':l troop rJ.a.y have its own hone in the woods. We
also recor~nend that every effort be r.18.de to secure the building of the dam so
that our long hoped for lake may become a reality.
Respectfully subnitted,
CAMP CURRIER COMMITTEE

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

various subjects. The Court is very proud to report that 1,150 Merit Badges
were awarded from December 1, 1929, to Decemoor 1, 1930, as compared to 746
badges awarded during the eleven months of the fiscal year ending December

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

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

The advancement program was better this year than last, three
Scouts advancing from Tenderfoot to Second Class, twelve from Second Class
to First Class, and three.to Ea~le. There were 231.Merit Badges awarded to
143 Scouts. Two Senior and ten Junior Red Cross Life Saving certificates
were awarded.
For 1931 we recommend that every effort be ma.de to secure an even
larGer attendance, as we feel that the attendance at camp is of tremendous
benefit to the boys and throU&-11 them to the troop and to Scouting as a whole.
Troops who camp are usually permanent troops and we want to lay especial
stress on 8etting a larGer nTu~ber of boys to go to camp. We further recommend
that funds be made ~vailable for the repairs whic~ are u.rsently needed at can~.
M9.ny of the roofs of the lodges leak badly. The Mess Hall should be rescreened
and there are several lo"dc;es which need new screens on them. These iter.:ls do
not show up on a casual inspection of the camp but they are desperately needed and should be attended to with the least possible delay.

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

REPORT
OF
SEA
S C0 UT
C 0 MMI T T E E
Your Committee feels that Sea Scouting is one of the best means
of holding the older boys in the Scout movement as a Sea Scout program is
built for the use of older boys.
Our Comnittee has been ha~dicapped through. the entire lack of
funds, no money being allowed in the·budget to take care of Sea Scout activities. Numerous efforts have been made to secure a boat, but unfortunately,
they have all been unsuccessful.
The Council has dropped four troops of Scouts during the year
1930, two of which were Sea Scout Ships. We a·~e not proud of this record,
but until such time as money is available for this program we do not see how
it can be pushed to a very successful conclusion.
One Sea Scout Ship has been organized during the year, the s.s.s.
Bonita at the Galloway Memorial Methodist Church. 'l'hese boys also wanted a
boat and when they discovered there was no money available from the Council
for it they got busy and are now working on a 25 foot motor launch, the keel
of which ~as laid in the Athletic Building at the Fair Grounds on October
28th. We are proud of the initiative shown by this ship under the leadership of Skipper C. B. Kennedy and we expect to cooperate with him in every
way towards the completion of this boat.
For 1931 we recommend:
.....
1.
'!'hat at least $500.00 be provided in the Council budget for Sea
Scouting.
2.
That a boat at least 30 feot long be secured for the use.of Sea
Scouts under the direction and control of the Council through
the Scout Executive.
3.
That additional Sea Scout troops be organized wherever practical
and that the Sea Scout program be made available to as many of
our older Scouts as possible.

REPORT
OF
TRAINING
COMMITTEE
It is our privilege to report that du.ring the year 1930 gTeater
ell!Phasis has been placed on training of Scout Lead~rs than at any time du.ring the history of the Oouncil. We feel very proud of this, as there is no
doubt in our mind that training of Scout Leaders is the keynote of successful troops.
The Minimum Course of the 5 Year Training Program was given in~/
the spring to a class of 34 men, 20 of whom were awarded certificates. Immediately following this course the Approved Course was put on with 21 members, lS of whom received cert'ifieates. In the fall the Minimum Course was
again given to our leaders with 32 members ta.~ing this training. In these
two courses a total of 87 white leaders was given instruction in Scouting
and they have been a very great benefit to these men.
We are greatly indebted to the experienced Scout Leaders who
have served as officers in these various .training schools: Messrs. Ross A.
Ma.thews and R. G. Walls, Sr., have served as Scoutmasters of the schools;
Messrs. George Klepper and L. R. Taylor were the Assistant Scoutmasters; Mr.
Willard E. Hays was the Scribe; Mr. W. Gordon Morris was Senior Patrol Leader; and Mr. :Sen Coffey, Jr., Scoutmaster of Troop l, Mr. Joe Flanagan,
Scoutmaster of Troop 3, Mr. Howard Pritchard, Scoutmaster of Troop 5, Mr. C.
C. Brown, Jr., Scoutmaster of Troop 38, and Mr. James Fentress, then District
Commissioner, served as Patrol Leaders. Messrs. Coffey and Flanagan have
served in all three of the schools which were conducted. We are deeply indebted to the volunteer leaders who did such splendid work in giving freely
of their time and effort toward helping the men who have not ·had as great experience in Scouting as they have.
The Y. M. C. A. has cooperated with and assisted us tremendously
by giving the use of a room in which to hold our training sessions. We deep~
ly appreciate their help and their splendid spirit of cooperation.
The negro leaders of the Council have also been given training
under the leadership of J. A. Beauchamp, Assistant to Mr. Stanley A. Harris,
National Director of Inter-Racial Activities. In the Training School in the
spring 28 members composed the class, while the fall course had 46 members,
a total of 74 negro leaders who received training during the year. This is
a large step in the right direction and we feel it will mean much to the
negro Scout troops of this Council.
For 1931 we recommend that cont.inued emphasis be placed on. the
training of Sco~t Leaders, also that Specialization Courses in First Aid and
other subjects be given whenever practical. The Council is now in position
to conduct its own First Aid Courses under the au.spices of the American Red

Your Cormnittee reports that during the year ending December 1,
1930 there were 16 troops of white Scouts and 2 troops of negTo Scouts organized. ChicY..asaw Council now has 62 troops of white Scouts and 8 troops
of negro Scouts, a total of 70 troops. In 1929, 14 troo~9s were orJ,anized,
whereas, in 1930 18 troops were organized, an increase of 28.6% in troops
organized.
In 1929 the Council had 57 troops, whereas, on December 1, 1930
we have 70 troops, a gain of 13 troops or 22.8%.
The 16 white troops or'-;anized this year are as follows:
2 - La:Belle Baptist Church
28 - St. John t·s Methodist Church
31 - Epworth Methodist Church
52 - Linden Ave. Christian Church

The 2 negro troops

this year are as follows:
106 - First Baptist Church
107 - St • .Ste:Jhen•s Baptist Church
We aro i:;lad to report that steady grov1th is being made in the
organization of troops outside of the city proper and that 3 troops of the
16 or:;anized t:1is year 'i<ere not ;·fi thin the city limits. i7e feel that every
effort should be made to assist the boys in the rural areas in getting the
advantnges of Scouting.
During 1930 the Cou_,.1cil dropped five troops, h10 of which were
Sea Scout Ships. The troops dropped were as follows:
17 - Oakville Sanitarium
28 - St. John's Methodist Church
Page 21
�REPORT OF TROOP OB.G.AlTIZ.ATIOW COMMITTZZ (Continued)
35 - Group of Citizens
55 - Idlewild Presbyterian Church
58 - \Vhite Station School
The reason for Troop 17 being dropped was that this troop ~as
composed entirely of boys v1ho had tuberculosis and were confined to the Oa1: ville Sanitarium. Wlien the time for reregistration came arou.11d all but one
of the boys had been discharged from tho Sanitarium as cured and there were
no boys, therefore, available to rer.egister the troop. Some of those boys
have since joined other troops in the city, which is very pleasing to us.
For 1931 we recommend that as many new troops be organized as
the :mxecutive Board thinks is wise in view of the financial situation. We
further recommend t!i.at negro churches be given the right to organize troops
whenever they can demonstrate their fitness to sponsor a troop.
We arc proud of the record of the Council growth of this yea:r
sure it will continue to enlarge.

REPORT
OF
SCOUT
EXECUTIVE
It is rey- pleasw.~e to report that Chickusaw Council has had the
banner year of its history. during 1930. The Council has the largest. number
of troops, the largest number of Scouts, the greatest number of merit badges have been awarded, o.nd the attendance at the.two camps has far surpassed
anything on record. Below are figures for the fiscal year ending December
1, 1920 as compared to December 1, 1929.

The Statistical Bureau of the National Council issues quarterly
a Local Council Index for growth and development. It is rey- privilege to
report that Chickasaw Council, partially on account of the splendid growth
in troops and Scouts, has the highest average among the 40 Councils in Region 5, which comprises the States of Tennessee, .Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama. Our average as shown by the four reports of the Bureau is 58.5. The nearest average to us is that of Tullahoma, Tennessee,
which has 56.0. Chickasaw Council is far in advance of the larger Councils
of the Region, its nearest competitors being Birmingham with 53.5, Nashville
49.5, Little Rock 48.3, and New Orleans 45.0. In arriving at the figures
above quoted, the Statistical Bureau takes in consideration the net gain in
troops, the net number of dropped troops, new troops, lapsed troops, net gain.
in Scouts, net dropped Scouts, new Scouts, Tenderfoot Scouts, First Class
Scouts, and the ratio between Tenderfoot and First Class.
Scouts have shoun a marked improvement in advancement this year,
as last year only 65 boys won their First Class badges as compared to 114
this year, an increase of 6o%. In 1929, 746 merit badges were awarded by the
Court of Honor, whereas, this year 1,150 were a~arded, an increase of 54.2%.
1929 shows only 8 boys attaining the ran...~ of Ea~le Scout; whoroas, this year
we have 12 boys who have been awarded their Eagie Badges,

to the fact that a swimming pool ~w.s construct ed which e;ave the boys an opportunity to swim uithout having to go off the carr:p. The pool proved a
tremendou s attractio n. I feel sure that as soon as a dam is built and a
lake formed at Camp Currier the additiona l attractio ns of boating, fishing,
and swimming will double the present number 9f boy days.
I
At Camp Currier we now have 15 complete cabins owned by various
troops and 9 cabins in course of construct ion, ~horeas, on the first of
December lo.st year we had only 8 complete cabins nith 5 others in course of
const1~uction.
The Carr:p Currier Lnkc Fund was started this year by Mrs. Elizabeth B. Currier of Geneva, Switzerla nd. Mrs. Currier donated $300.00 to
the Fund and as additiona l contribut ions are received th.ey will be added to
the Fund until suf'ficien t money is available to build the dam. The Council
is indeed indebted to W~s. Currier for her splzndid idea and the many generous donations .
At Kanrp Kia Kinn we had the pleasure of 1:w.v ing 56 boys from the
St. Francis Valley Council with headquar ters at Blythevi lle, .i'.\.rkr.msas. We
are glad to have had them with us and hope they ~vill return next year •
.A.t both Ca.mp Currier and Kanp ICia !Cima the attendn.nc e has been
by lonG odds the greatest in the history of the Cotincil. This is very encoura-:;ing , as I believe that troops who crurrp get the most out of Scouting
and that they are as a uhole more permanent than troops who do not periodically eet in the great outdoors.
The first negro Scout CD.mp ever held in Chiclr..asnw Council was
conducted this year. It lasted but 5 days but was the beginning of v1hat
should be a. permo.nent c.:trr:ping proQ~r:.::.m for ne~o Scouts. Next year I feel
sure it will last at least 2 weeks. It undoubted ly helped not only the negro boys but the neg:ro men who attended.
T'.ais year has also seen the greatest number of Sco.ut Leaders
trained in the history of the Council. We used tho outline of the 5 Year
Progressi ve Training Program approved by the National Council. We have had
two Minimum Courses and one Approved Course for our r1hi t~ Scout Leaders and
two Minimum Courses for tl1e negro Scout Leaders. The Coundl is greatly indebted to the followin~:; Scout Leadors who served in the Tri:.dning Courses:
Messrs. Ross .A. Mathews and R. G. Walls, Sr., Scoutmas ters; Messrs. George
Klepper and L. R. Taylor, Assistant Scoutmas ters; Mr. W. E. Hays, Scribe;
Messrs. Ben B. Coffey, Jr., Joe Flanagan, Howard Pritchard , James Fentress,
and C. C. Brown, Jr., Patrol Leaders, Messrs. Coffey and Flanagan served in
a+l three of the schools for w::iite Scout Leaders.
Assist~~t
The negro training courses were conducted by J, A. Beauchan;p,
to Mr. Stanley A. Harris, National Director of Inter-Rac ial Activ-
ities.
I am indeed glad to report that every troop in the Council
is led by an efficient Scoutmas ter •

�BEPORT OF SCOUT EXECUTIVE (Cont,~nued)
T'nis year has seen a IrlD.rked improvement i~\ the Scout Leaders Round
Table, the average attendance beinc-; about 60 Scout Load'ers. The Council is
indebted to Mr. Walter Gray uho has so splendidly coope~ated throughout the
year by preparint~ and se1"Vin:; without cost to the Council ~ splendid meal for
the Round Table once each month. Mr. Grey does not receiv6, one cent of profit but through his interest in Scouting donates the tremendous amount of work
necessary to :r:r.ake the Round Table a success.
For the last 5 years Chickasaw Council has been tremendously handicapped by the lack of funds. This year our budget is $11,910.00 to cover the
opsrations of 70 troops. In 1921, the Council budcet ~as $12,053.00 with only
18 troops on tho roll. The lack of ample finance retards the development of
the Council, but in view of the existing financial situation throuehout the
cotmtry I feel we have made splendid pro 1:;ress with the money available.
Chickas~w Council could not have made the splendid record it has
for this year had not the Officers and the Executive Board, the Council Members, the Members of the various Committees, Merit Bad,se Counselors, Scoutmasters and Assist~nt Scout:mo.sters cooperated at all times. Many demands for
time have been made on so::ie of our Scouters .that the.y could ill afford to
__ gtv:e, out they have helped whenever and 'rlherever they. could and I uant to ta1~e
this opportunity to ·th~n..~ them for the thought they have given, the sacrifices
they have made and the real 11ork that has been done that our Council mi(~11.t
..
give to_our boys every op?ortunity to become better citizens through the nnnifold advantaees of Scouting. Without the help and cooporation of these gentlemen we would be far from the leading Council .in Region 5.
In planning the work of tl1e Cou:acil fo~ 1931 I recommend:
\
1,
That especial emphasis be placed on the trairting of leaders and that
at least four trn.b.ing schools be conducted.
2.
That a lake be built at Camp Currier. I feel th~ building of the
dar:: and the formation of a lake from it uill be the greatest stimulus we could have at caup, as it will create a greater interest
o.none; the boys and also among the supporting constituency of the
Council.
3.
That more boys be recrui tod in our troops and that 15 new troops be
orc;anized.
4.
That we have a Merit Badge Exi~osition similar to the one held in
1928 whenever financial conditions will permit.
5.
That ~e r:Jaintain hish standards in all events involved in Scouting
technique and especially in the award of merit badges.
6,
That Sea ScoutinG be encouraGed and a boat be provided for the use
of our Sea Scouts.
7.
That we give the advantaJs of the Scouting program to ne&To boys
whenever and i7herever troops can be or~anized with i:iroper leadership and supervision.
Page 25.
\
�RElPOil.T OF SCOUT EXECU'I'IVE (Continued)
8.
That every effort be r.:iade throu,ji educational publicity and other
i-;:ieo.ns to educate the :publ~c at lar:;e and especially the heads of
.churches and other institution s as to the values of Scout training.
Scouting is a vital force in our community and is tremendousl y
helpful as a supplement to the work of \our churches. With the continued S'\JlJport of our Council Members and other Scout Leaders there is no doubt but
that Cl1iclmsaw Council uill continue to pro8l"ess in 1931. I earnestly ask
your continued loyal cooperation in making· Scouting available to the boys in
the Council .Area.

SCOUT FIRST AID
S.ept. 28, 1930
While travelling through your city, rrw car was struck by another.
The windshield broke, cutting me badly. A young man descended
from a street car and rendered first aid.
Had it not been for him I am sure I would have lost considerable
blood. He bound my cuts as well as an experienced doctor.
He sa:ys he learned first aid in the Scouts.
I offered him. sev.eral d.ollars which he politely refused.
The young man was a big, husky young chap and is a fine example
of Scout training.
Let me take this opportunity of heartily endorsing the Boy
Scout movement. It is raising the boys of .America in the ideals
of public service.
It is a wonderful organization.
Very truly yours,
L. c. Morrels,
Cleve~~ Ohio.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Life Scout Eill Dellarrw of Troop l rendered the service mentioned
in the above letter. He gave first aid as his Daily Good
Turn and did not report the., accident to his Scoutmaster or to Scout
Headquarters. He "did the job as a Scout should; efficiently, quietly
and without bragging about his accomplishment. The Council had
no knowledge of Bill's splendid ~ork until the letter from Mr.
Morrels was published over·a month ~fter the accident and then the
information was secured only after diligent inquiry. We honor ~ill
Bellarey- as a true Scout who is putting into practice in his daily
life the Scout Oath and Law.

ANlIDAL MEETING, D3JCEMBER 5, 1930
* * * *
REPORT OF .ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE
The Activities Committee is proud of the work which has been accomplished
during the past year. We feel that the Council is indeed. fortunate
in having such a splendid group of men who are actively serving with
the troops. Every troop has a Scoutmaster and a large majority of them have
one or more Assistant Scoutmasters. This has resulted in the boys participating
very actively in all Cou;.1cil activities.
The Inter-Troop Rally Tournament which ran for ~b,ut three months
in 1929 and 30 has proved a tremendous success. In this to ment the
troops are divided up into leagues, each league having an In ian name. The
rallies are run on schedule and each rally contains a number of Scouting
events such as Inspection, O'Gracy Drill, First Aid, Fire by Flint and Steel,
Semaphore Signalling, Knot Tying, and Morse Signalling. Participation of
troops in these rallies has resulted in an increased stimulation in the technique
of Scouting and we feel that much good has resulted from these rallies.
Another Inter-Troop Ra.lly Tournament will start on December 12th
and will run well into the new year.
The Activities Committee has had a great deal of help from a
splendid group of men who are serving as District Commissioners and as referees
for rallies. All the leagues in the Inter-Troop Rally Tournament with
one exception are supervised by District Corrmissioners. We now have a Commissioner,
a Deputy Commissioner, and eight District Commissioners actively
working with the troops, whereas, last year wo had only one or two men who
could be counted on to serve in the capacity of a District Comrnissioner"i.
We feel that the general condition of the troops of Chickasaw
Council is good. There aro some troops who are weak in Scouting technique
and they consequently need nm.ch help from Headquarters and from the District
Commissioners. Je therefore recommend that every effort be made. to continue
to secui·e efficient men to serve as District Com.~issioners and that the Council
follow up the plan of Intor-Troop Rallies from year to year.
Respectfully submitted,
ACTIVITIES COMMITT.EE

R E_.P 0 R T 0 F CAMP CURRIER C 0 M M I T T E E
Your Conuni ttee is proud of the splendid record of Camp Currier.
Fur the past year the camp has undoubtedly had the ber.t year in its history
:ln1.1.omuch as there has been more bttllding of cabins, larger attendance, and
e;i·outer interest than ever before.
As of December 1st, there are 15 complete cabins on the camp as
compared to 8 cabins which were complete on December l~ 1929. These completed
cabins are owned by Troops 5, 8, 15, 16, 19, 25, 27, 29, 33, 34, 40,
41 1 49, 50, and the Kelley Cabin which is owned by the Council.. Last year
thore were only 5 cabins in course of construction, whereas, on this date
we have 9 cabins on which the troops are buildingo 6 of these caoins were
Gtarted this year. Troops 6, 7, 9, 11, 13, 32, 38, 43, and 66 are working
on cabins at the present time. All of these cabins, with the exception of
Troops 9, 11, and 13 were started in 1930. We are very ple?-sed at the unuaual
amount of building which has taken place in camp, especially in view
of the depressed financial conditions which have existed for the last six
01· eight months.
The equipment of the camp on December 1, 1930, therefo're, is the
Headquarters Cabin with pUinp house and garage, the old Burrows Cabin with
stable and cistern, the Lone Stable and cistern, and the new Kelley Cabin
and cistern, all of these being owned by the Council, together with 14 troop
cabins complete and in use, and the 9 troop cabins in course of construction.
Plans for the cabins of Troops 21 and 56 have been approved and these troops
will undoUbtedly start work in t.he near futureo
The gre~test single improvement to the camp during the year was
the construction o;J~a swimming pool 60 feet wide and 120 feet long and 6!
feet deep. It was dug in a valley near the central part of the ca1"1p and has
the appearance of a natural pool rather than an artificial swimming pool.
There is a continuous flow of spring water wi1ich results in its being kept
unusually pure. Particular attention has been given to the prevention of
accidents and there has not been a single accident during this year. 175
Black Bass Fingerlings were put in the stream which feeds the pool and good
fishing should result within the next few years~
The attendance at camp has been the largest in its history due,
we believe, principally to the swimming facilities provided by the pool. In
1930 there was a total.of 3,564 Scout days as compared to 1,941 last year,
an increase of 83.6% in the nuinber of Scout dayso In 1930 1,327 people visited
the c~p as compared with 874 ih 1929 or an increase of 51.8%0
One of the most important steps toward the welfare of the future
of the camp was the starting of the Camp Currier lake Fund, which plan was
originated by Mrs. Elizabeth B. Currier of Geneva, Switzerland. Mrs. Currier
donated $300.00 toward this fund and it is the plan to keep it in the savings
bank and add to it whenever donations are received. This fund has for its
REPORT OF CAMP CURRIER COMMITTEE (Continued)
purpose the building of a dam across one of the valleys in the northwestern
part of the camp. When this dam is constructed there will be a body of
water formed of approximately 25 acreso We believe that this fund will continue
to grow and we wish to express our deep appreciation to Mrs. Currier
for the idea and also for her gonerosi ty in starting it. We are also indebted
to Mrs •. Currier for many donations which she .has given to the camp
from time to time, as her generosity has resulted in tremendous improvements
of the car.1p.
The problem of transportation has been solved to a large extent
by making the program and attractions of the camp so alluring that the boys
find wa;ys of their own to travel back and forth.
Eternal vigilance and the presence of so many Scouts and visitors
has reduced poaching so that it is no longer a serious menace and the
people in the comraunity around the ca.~p have recognized the importance of
this caDp preserve and have given it their ooral support and protection.
Lack of wells to supply drinking water is one of the most desperate
needs of the canp. Troops which are cnr.1ping at the northern end of
ca.inp have approximately a mile to travel in order to get drinking watero
Therefore, we recornr:i.end that at least two wells be constructed during 1931
so that troops may be supplied with drinking water without having to go to
Headquarters for it.
We also recoL~Jend that a substantial fence be built entirely around
the cm~p and that the cooperation·of the neighbors owni~g adjoining
land be secured~lding this fence.

The Civic Relations Cormnittee is proud of the work which has
been done during the past year by the Scouts of Chickasaw Council. They
have done their work gladly, efficiently, and ~ith the true spirit of Scouting.
Ever;y~ member of the Council should be proud of the record our boys
have made. Some of their activities are as follows:
1. Distributed sixty thousand cards giving directions for the control
of mosquito breeding for the Department of Health. This
required all the troops in Mcmp:1is and was the largest single
undertalci~g our Scouts have ever participated in.
2. Distributed posters for the h1em9his Community Flmd.
3. Packed and delivered baskets for the Good Fellows two days.
4. Eight Eagle Scouts served as pages to Governor Henry H. Horton
on his visit to ?viemohis.

Fire Prevention rleek.

11. Our Merit Eadge Counselors in Public Health have required Scouts
to go to tho Department of noalth for inforw~tion and instruction
before passing tht: Merit Bad{~e for Public Heal th. This has
proved a soured of much help to the boys and. through them to the
comrrnmity.
We are particulady proud of the splendid work the bo;ys did in
distributin::; the sixt3r thousand cu,rds for the Department of Health. T'.ais
civic good turn required all the troops in the city in order that it could
be done quickly and efficiently. .According to Dr. L. M. Graves, S1.1;-pcrintendent

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

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

REPORT OF KAMP KIA KIMA COMMITTEE
The attendance a.t Kamp Xia Kiroa for its 15th season was the larcest
in the history of the camp, 269 boys having attended as compared to 180
in 1929. This is an incroa.se of 49.4%~ The average \7ee1dy attendance at
camp uas 73 boys as co~arod to 56 boys in 1929. The increase was caused
partially by the fact that the St. Francis Valley Council, with headquarters
at ~lytheville, Ark., sent some of their boys to our.ca.mp this year, The
large attendance naturally increased the number of boy weeks.and no had 736
boy weeks as compared to 562 in 1929 or o.n increase of 30. 9%.·- We are very
gla.d to have had such a large attendance and to have had the 56 boys from
the St. Francis Valley Council who camped with us,
for the

The St. Francis Valley Council paid Chickasaw Council $175.00
privilege of its boys attending ·ID.imp Kia Xinia.. ~e cordially invite
Francis Valley to camp '7ith us again in 1931, as we are glad for
use the facilities of Kia Kima..
The large number of boys required additional equipr.ient in the
way of dishes, cutlery, and mattresses. Therefore, ':le had to spend $1,057.70
for various kinds of equipment as co~yared to $541.79 in 1929.
The heal th of the camp vms excellent throug.;.1.out the season wi fa
only a very few cases of mo.la.ria which the co.op doctor feels sure were brou::;ht
to camp by the boys. ill standini::; vmter, st~s, sloug...11s, etc., within a radius
of a half r.rl.le of tho cam_;;i •<ere oiled thorou&hly twice during the sEJa~on
and there were -practically no r.10squitoes. This was lar ~ely due to the extre416ly
dry weather which provn.iled t~1roughout the cany;iing season.
Every effort \7as r:iado to hold the· cost of the ~ to tho minir.:mo
but even with the r:aost careful supervision the co.r.:ip lost $215.97 duriw; the
ten weeks of its operation, this deficit being made up by funds provided by
the Meqphis Cor.nuni ty Fund •
.Another tennis court ·,ms built this season and was inclosed with
wire. The t~o tennis courts ?rovided a great deal of pleasure for the boys
and they were constantly used all throu::;h the year •
. Through the efforts of our President, Mr. Edward M. Salomon, a
C&:."J? library ·>las starte·d and we nou have a.bout a hundred books O\med by the
ca.1"1p whic~ were donated throuGh Mr. Salor:ion. We wish to express our appreciation
to the Cossitt Library for their splendid cooperation in sendinc to
the ca:;:p about five hundre·d books which were thorou;.~ly enjoyed by the boys.
Each year the.Cossitt Library cooperates with the car:rp. in furnishin~ a ~ood
library and it is a source of much pl0asure to our boys.
Page 12.
~ORT OF KAMP lUA l{IMA COMMITTEE (Continued)
There were no serious accidents at cw'.1p this year and the heal th
of the boys was exceptionally good. iVe believe that a boy is safer in car:ip
than he is on the streets of Me~10his. . ~
The advancement program was better this year than last, three
Scouts advancing from Tenderfoot to Second Class, twelve from Second Class
to First Class, and three.to Ea~le. There were 231.Merit Badges awarded to
143 Scouts. Two Senior and ten Junior Red Cross Life Saving certificates
were awarded.
For 1931 we recommend that every effort be ma.de to secure an even
larGer attendance, as we feel that the attendance at camp is of tremendous
benefit to the boys and throU&-11 them to the troop and to Scouting as a whole.
Troops who camp are usually permanent troops and we want to lay especial
stress on 8etting a larGer nTu~ber of boys to go to camp. We further recommend
that funds be made ~vailable for the repairs whic~ are u.rsently needed at can~.
M9.ny of the roofs of the lodges leak badly. The Mess Hall should be rescreened
and there are several lo"dc;es which need new screens on them. These iter.:ls do
not show up on a casual inspection of the camp but they are desperately needed
and should be attended to with the least possible delay.

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

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

REPORT OF TRAINING COMMITTEE
It is our privilege to report that du.ring the year 1930 gTeater
ell!Phasis has been placed on training of Scout Lead~rs than at any time du.ring
the history of the Oouncil. We feel very proud of this, as there is no
doubt in our mind that training of Scout Leaders is the keynote of successful
troops.
The Minimum Course of the 5 Year Training Program was given in~/
the spring to a class of 34 men, 20 of whom were awarded certificates. Immediately
following this course the Approved Course was put on with 21 members,
lS of whom received cert'ifieates. In the fall the Minimum Course was
again given to our leaders with 32 members ta.~ing this training. In these
two courses a total of 87 white leaders was given instruction in Scouting
and they have been a very great benefit to these men.
We are greatly indebted to the experienced Scout Leaders who
have served as officers in these various .training schools: Messrs. Ross A.
Ma.thews and R. G. Walls, Sr., have served as Scoutmasters of the schools;
Messrs. George Klepper and L. R. Taylor were the Assistant Scoutmasters; Mr.
Willard E. Hays was the Scribe; Mr. W. Gordon Morris was Senior Patrol Leader;
and Mr. :Sen Coffey, Jr., Scoutmaster of Troop l, Mr. Joe Flanagan,
Scoutmaster of Troop 3, Mr. Howard Pritchard, Scoutmaster of Troop 5, Mr. C.
C. Brown, Jr., Scoutmaster of Troop 38, and Mr. James Fentress, then District
Commissioner, served as Patrol Leaders. Messrs. Coffey and Flanagan have
served in all three of the schools which were conducted. We are deeply indebted
to the volunteer leaders who did such splendid work in giving freely
of their time and effort toward helping the men who have not ·had as great experience
in Scouting as they have.
The Y. M. C. A. has cooperated with and assisted us tremendously
by giving the use of a room in which to hold our training sessions. We deep~
ly appreciate their help and their splendid spirit of cooperation.
The negro leaders of the Council have also been given training
under the leadership of J. A. Beauchamp, Assistant to Mr. Stanley A. Harris,
National Director of Inter-Racial Activities. In the Training School in the
spring 28 members composed the class, while the fall course had 46 members,
a total of 74 negro leaders who received training during the year. This is
a large step in the right direction and we feel it will mean much to the
negro Scout troops of this Council.
For 1931 we recommend that cont.inued emphasis be placed on. the
training of Sco~t Leaders, also that Specialization Courses in First Aid and
other subjects be given whenever practical. The Council is now in position
to conduct its own First Aid Courses under the au.spices of the American Red

Cross inasmuch as Scoutmaster Ben Coffey of Troop 1, Scoutmaster W. J. Barfield,

REPORT 0 F TROOP ORGANIZATION COMMITTEE
Your Cormnittee reports that during the year ending December 1,
1930 there were 16 troops of white Scouts and 2 troops of negTo Scouts organized.
ChicY..asaw Council now has 62 troops of white Scouts and 8 troops
of negro Scouts, a total of 70 troops. In 1929, 14 troo~9s were orJ,anized,
whereas, in 1930 18 troops were organized, an increase of 28.6% in troops
organized.
In 1929 the Council had 57 troops, whereas, on December 1, 1930
we have 70 troops, a gain of 13 troops or 22.8%.
The 16 white troops or'-;anized this year are as follows:
2 - La:Belle Baptist Church
28 - St. John t·s Methodist Church
31 - Epworth Methodist Church
52 - Linden Ave. Christian Church
60 - Germa~town w~thodist Church
61 - Missouri-Pacific Railroad
62 - Schoolfield Memorial Mcthodis t Church
63 - Parkview Presbyterian Church
64 - West Side Civic Club
65 - Galloway Methodist Church
66 - Central Baptist Church'
67 - Lindsay Memorial ?rosbytorian Church
68 - American Legion
69 - St. Albans Episcopal Chapel
70 - Millingto:1 Methodist Church
71 - Hollywood 3aptist Church
The 2 negro troops orga~ized this year are as follows:
106 - First Baptist Church
107 - St • .Ste:Jhen•s Baptist Church
We aro i:;lad to report that steady grov1th is being made in the
organization of troops outside of the city proper and that 3 troops of the
16 or:;anized t:1is year 'i<ere not ;·fi thin the city limits. i7e feel that every
effort should be made to assist the boys in the rural areas in getting the
advantnges of Scouting.
During 1930 the Cou_,.1cil dropped five troops, h10 of which were
Sea Scout Ships. The troops dropped were as follows:
17 - Oakville Sanitarium
28 - St. John's Methodist Church
Page 21
REPORT OF TROOP OB.G.AlTIZ.ATIOW COMMITTZZ (Continued)
35 - Group of Citizens
55 - Idlewild Presbyterian Church
58 - \Vhite Station School
The reason for Troop 17 being dropped was that this troop ~as
composed entirely of boys v1ho had tuberculosis and were confined to the Oa1:ville
Sanitarium. Wlien the time for reregistration came arou.11d all but one
of the boys had been discharged from tho Sanitarium as cured and there were
no boys, therefore, available to rer.egister the troop. Some of those boys
have since joined other troops in the city, which is very pleasing to us.
For 1931 we recommend that as many new troops be organized as
the :mxecutive Board thinks is wise in view of the financial situation. We
further recommend t!i.at negro churches be given the right to organize troops
whenever they can demonstrate their fitness to sponsor a troop.
We arc proud of the record of the Council growth of this yea:r
and we feel sure it will continue to enlarge.

REPORT OF SCOUT EXECUTIVE
It is rey- pleasw.~e to report that Chickusaw Council has had the
banner year of its history. during 1930. The Council has the largest. number
of troops, the largest number of Scouts, the greatest number of merit badges
have been awarded, o.nd the attendance at the.two camps has far surpassed
anything on record. Below are figures for the fiscal year ending December
1, 1920 as compared to December 1, 1929.
December 1, 1930
70 ~roops
1,504 Scouts
December 1 1 1929
57 Troops
1,238 Scouts
Gain
13 Troops or 22.8%
266 Scouts or 21.5%
The Statistical Bureau of the National Council issues quarterly
a Local Council Index for growth and development. It is rey- privilege to
report that Chickasaw Council, partially on account of the splendid growth
in troops and Scouts, has the highest average among the 40 Councils in Region
5, which comprises the States of Tennessee, .Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi,
and Alabama. Our average as shown by the four reports of the Bureau
is 58.5. The nearest average to us is that of Tullahoma, Tennessee,
which has 56.0. Chickasaw Council is far in advance of the larger Councils
of the Region, its nearest competitors being Birmingham with 53.5, Nashville
49.5, Little Rock 48.3, and New Orleans 45.0. In arriving at the figures
above quoted, the Statistical Bureau takes in consideration the net gain in
troops, the net number of dropped troops, new troops, lapsed troops, net gain.
in Scouts, net dropped Scouts, new Scouts, Tenderfoot Scouts, First Class
Scouts, and the ratio between Tenderfoot and First Class.
Scouts have shoun a marked improvement in advancement this year,
as last year only 65 boys won their First Class badges as compared to 114
this year, an increase of 6o%. In 1929, 746 merit badges were awarded by the
Court of Honor, whereas, this year 1,150 were a~arded, an increase of 54.2%.
1929 shows only 8 boys attaining the ran...~ of Ea~le Scout; whoroas, this year
we have 12 boys who have been awarded their Eagie Badges,
The camping record of the Council is excellent, as will be noted
by the figui~es below:
December 1 1 1930
Camp Currier, 3,564 Scout Days
Kamp Kia Kima., 736 Scout Weeks
Kamp Kia Kima, 269 Scouts
CaIJ1P Attendance
December 1, 1929
1,941 Scout Days
562 Scout Weeks
180 Scouts
Gain
1,623 days or 83.6%
174 weeks or 30.9%
89 Scouts or 49.4%
The large attendance at Camp Currier is due ma.inly, I believe,
Page 23.
REPORT OF SCOUT EXi::iCUTIVE (Continued)
to the fact that a swimming pool ~w.s constructed which e;ave the boys an opportunity
to swim uithout having to go off the carr:p. The pool proved a
tremendous attraction. I feel sure that as soon as a dam is built and a
lake formed at Camp Currier the additional attractions of boating, fishing,
and swimming will double the present number 9f boy days.
I
At Camp Currier we now have 15 complete cabins owned by various
troops and 9 cabins in course of construction, ~horeas, on the first of
December lo.st year we had only 8 complete cabins nith 5 others in course of
const1~uction.
The Carr:p Currier Lnkc Fund was started this year by Mrs. Elizabeth
B. Currier of Geneva, Switzerland. Mrs. Currier donated $300.00 to
the Fund and as additional contributions are received th.ey will be added to
the Fund until suf'ficient money is available to build the dam. The Council
is indeed indebted to W~s. Currier for her splzndid idea and the many generous
donations.
At Kanrp Kia Kinn we had the pleasure of 1:w.v ing 56 boys from the
St. Francis Valley Council with headquarters at Blytheville, .i'.\.rkr.msas. We
are glad to have had them with us and hope they ~vill return next year •
.A.t both Ca.mp Currier and Kanp ICia !Cima the attendn.nce has been
by lonG odds the greatest in the history of the Cotincil. This is very encoura-:;
ing, as I believe that troops who crurrp get the most out of Scouting
and that they are as a uhole more permanent than troops who do not periodically
eet in the great outdoors.
The first negro Scout CD.mp ever held in Chiclr..asnw Council was
conducted this year. It lasted but 5 days but was the beginning of v1hat
should be a. permo.nent c.:trr:ping proQ~r:.::.m for ne~o Scouts. Next year I feel
sure it will last at least 2 weeks. It undoubtedly helped not only the negro
boys but the neg:ro men who attended.
T'.ais year has also seen the greatest number of Sco.ut Leaders
trained in the history of the Council. We used tho outline of the 5 Year
Progressive Training Program approved by the National Council. We have had
two Minimum Courses and one Approved Course for our r1hi t~ Scout Leaders and
two Minimum Courses for tl1e negro Scout Leaders. The Coundl is greatly indebted
to the followin~:; Scout Leadors who served in the Tri:.dning Courses:
Messrs. Ross .A. Mathews and R. G. Walls, Sr., Scoutmasters; Messrs. George
Klepper and L. R. Taylor, Assistant Scoutmasters; Mr. W. E. Hays, Scribe;
Messrs. Ben B. Coffey, Jr., Joe Flanagan, Howard Pritchard, James Fentress,
and C. C. Brown, Jr., Patrol Leaders, Messrs. Coffey and Flanagan served in
a+l three of the schools for w::iite Scout Leaders.
The negro training courses were conducted by J, A. Beauchan;p,
Assist~~t to Mr. Stanley A. Harris, National Director of Inter-Racial Activities.
I am indeed glad to report that every troop in the Council no~
is led by an efficient Scoutmaster •
. Page 24.
BEPORT OF SCOUT EXECUTIVE (Cont,~nued)
T'nis year has seen a IrlD.rked improvement i~\ the Scout Leaders Round
Table, the average attendance beinc-; about 60 Scout Load'ers. The Council is
indebted to Mr. Walter Gray uho has so splendidly coope~ated throughout the
year by preparint~ and se1"Vin:; without cost to the Council ~ splendid meal for
the Round Table once each month. Mr. Grey does not receiv6, one cent of profit
but through his interest in Scouting donates the tremendous amount of work
necessary to :r:r.ake the Round Table a success.
For the last 5 years Chickasaw Council has been tremendously handicapped
by the lack of funds. This year our budget is $11,910.00 to cover the
opsrations of 70 troops. In 1921, the Council budcet ~as $12,053.00 with only
18 troops on tho roll. The lack of ample finance retards the development of
the Council, but in view of the existing financial situation throuehout the
cotmtry I feel we have made splendid pro1:;ress with the money available.
Chickas~w Council could not have made the splendid record it has
for this year had not the Officers and the Executive Board, the Council Members,
the Members of the various Committees, Merit Bad,se Counselors, Scoutmasters
and Assist~nt Scout:mo.sters cooperated at all times. Many demands for
time have been made on so::ie of our Scouters .that the.y could ill afford to
__ gtv:e, out they have helped whenever and 'rlherever they. could and I uant to ta1~e
this opportunity to ·th~n..~ them for the thought they have given, the sacrifices
they have made and the real 11ork that has been done that our Council mi(~1. .. 1.t
give to_our boys every op?ortunity to become better citizens through the nnnifold
advantaees of Scouting. Without the help and cooporation of these gentlemen
we would be far from the leading Council .in Region 5.

7.
In planning the work of tl1e Cou:acil fo~ 1931 I recommend:
\
That especial emphasis be placed on the trairting of leaders and that
at least four trn.b.ing schools be conducted.
That a lake be built at Camp Currier. I feel th~ building of the
dar:: and the formation of a lake from it uill be the greatest stimulus
we could have at caup, as it will create a greater interest
o.none; the boys and also among the supporting constituency of the
Council.
That more boys be recrui tod in our troops and that 15 new troops be
orc;anized.
That we have a Merit Badge Exi~osition similar to the one held in
1928 whenever financial conditions will permit.
That ~e r:Jaintain hish standards in all events involved in Scouting
technique and especially in the award of merit badges.
That Sea ScoutinG be encouraGed and a boat be provided for the use
of our Sea Scouts.
That we give the advantaJs of the Scouting program to ne&To boys
whenever and i7herever troops can be or~anized with i:iroper leadership
and supervision.

8. That every effort be r.:iade throu,ji educational publicity and other
i-;:ieo.ns to educate the :publ~c at lar:;e and especially the heads of
.churches and other institutions as to the values of Scout training.
Scouting is a vital force in our community and is tremendously
helpful as a supplement to the work of \our churches. With the continued S'\JlJport
of our Council Members and other Scout Leaders there is no doubt but
that Cl1iclmsaw Council uill continue to pro8l"ess in 1931. I earnestly ask
your continued loyal cooperation in making· Scouting available to the boys in
the Council .Area.
