Swim in the “Y” Tank and Visit College Museum and Headquarters. The Athena Scout troop thorough y enjoyed the trip to Walla Walla aturday afternoon. Twenty mem bers of the troop made the trip. The swimming tank at the “Y was con siderably splashed up by the scouts who were given swimming instruc tions by Mr. Hawley, scout executive. Some of the scouts tried out for the first-class swimming test, and one of them completed the test. After the swim the troop went to Whitman college museum where some time was spent, and then proceeded to the Chamber of Commerce building, and then to scout headquarters. A visit to the scout equipment depart ment at Gardner Co's completed the day’s program. The boys were in charge of three local scout of ficials and the Walla Walla scout ex ecutive officer. The local troop committee met last Thursday and appointed the troop’s Court of Honor, which is comprised of Mr. Lee Meyer, Mr. O. H. Reeder and Mr. B. B. Richards. No definite date has been set for the Parents Night program to be given by the scouts at the Standard Theatre, but the boys are working hard and will have a fine program to present. The judge has been appointed, the jury selected and attorneys are work ing on the case of Scouts vs. Emery Rogers, which will go to trial in the near future. Emery is charged with disobedience of the scout laws. It will be remembered that Emery was the efficient attorney for the de fense in the case of Scouts vs. Lester Towne, and though Emery put up a strong legal fight, he lost the case, since which time Lester has been carrying out the court sentence to kindle the fire every Thursday even ing at Scout Hall.
