iSchool Board Denies Scout Gym Use For Weekly Drills
The Bristol School Committee rejected the Bristol Boy Scout Bungle and Drum Corps request to drill weekly at Guiteras school for six weeks, preferring use of the State Armory or Bristol Train of Artillery Armory. Committeeman De Wolf opposed the permit saying it would set a precedent. The Alumni Association won approval to use the Colt auditorium for a May 12 bridge event, and the Garden Club will use it on May 15 for a free public lecture.
