VOL'.SC ADULT REPORTS ON CONFLUENCE IN LONDON
WARNS OF NSW sros IH'SI
! .i. ci s.s-V.D Senior Seoul. Manx Ruxiuon. now a Senior at Wayne State University, majoring in special education, had a very exciting trip this summer. She reports below.
Sue Hill (Boston- Montoehuseti Council), myself and nineteen young adults from eight countries attended the first ctinfcrence at Olave House in Umdun. England. This world center usually serves us as a hostel.
We "did" London through daily sightseeing jaunts. Experiences ranged from walks through Hyde Turk to exploring palaces and churches, to talks with local government officials, to a meeting with Lady Baden Powell, the World Chief Guide.
Our group included factory workers, students, nurses and leochers. It'e exchanged songs, folk dunces and ideas. Conversations late ot night turned again and again to student unrest, to what we knew of one another's ivuntry and Scouting and change.
/ wos impressed and heartened by these concerned Guiders working so hard at Scouting and their own lives. Our favorite french sung (in translation) reflects their spirit:
We have received ;i letter I'lom l)r, Ro\ I . (ir.tlci. Chemical I: n g i n o o r i ii): Department. Saemiiic Research Staff. Ford Motor Company, about an item in "Mutcubouts lor Kr>>wnic Ciil Seoul Leaders." He refers to page -t.t winch contains a suggestion lor making candlestick holders fimn asbestos dough and the recipe, page f*J. for the asbestos modeling material.
Dr. Cealer points out that "there is extensive literature in medical and environment health journals which indicate a relationship between exposure to asbestos dust and serious lung disease." He suggests that refeicr.ee to the use of asbestos modeling material be deleted from the book and that the membership be informed of the potential danger iron); contact with asbestos dust.
HAVE YOU...
Heard that we sold 226,500 of the 1971 GS calendar? Thai's about 7% more than for 1970. Such a success story, however, did have its moments - even days and weeks - of frustration, waning for additional orders to arrive.
Why wait until tomorrow. Why wall unlit tomorrow. Listen to that song. That song in the wind. Why woit unlit tomorrow.
It was a privilege to meet the girls at the conference. / wish to thank Girl Scouts, USA. for helping make it possible end the Council for helping rne prepore for it.
Over 7 million calendars were sold throughout the country a record. If you think it was hectic licie, consider the folks at GS-USA and the printer in Minneapolis. They were swamped with orders and additional orders front nearly 400 Councils . . . all coming at Hie same lime,all marked "Rush!"
Mrs. Roger M. Lindgrove and her district and calendar managers thank you for your patience and understanding under very trying and unanticipated conditions. The sale was grear! That's what counts in the long run.
