Area Scouts Dedicate New Nature Lodge
Boy Scout Camp Josepho in Rustic Canyon now has a nature lodge to be used in the teaching of animal and plant life skills to scouts.
The building was presented to the Crescent Bay Area Council by the families of Donald Kaufman and Eli Broad, in memory of Life Scout Richard Yale Golman who died in October, 1968.
The building was dedicated in a ceremony participated in by the donors, the Golman family and Scout officials, including Council President George Pardee Jr.; Schiller Colberg, scout executive, and Anatol Josepho, who originally gave the camp to the Scout Council.
The camp is three miles north of Sunset Boulevard in Rustic Canyon and is widely used by Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts on a year around basis for camping and other outdoor activities.

Sixty-eight girls attended the outdoor learning experience, held at the Sweetwater Dam Reservoir.
All of the skills were taught to the brownies by the junior and cadette girl scouts, who were earning their aid and leadership awards.
One of the favorite skill areas was knot tying, led by junior troop # 5102 of Nicoloff Elementary School.
These seasoned campers taught the bolin (sic), square, and half-hitch knots by using candy ropes, then later by using the real thing.
Several brownie troops attended and earned their bridge to junior award, including troop 15091 of Sunnyslope Elementary School, led by Tina Cash.

Scout Leaders Hope To Save Cabrillo Base
Scouts
From page A1
...Utah and Nevada, said the Hines and Mitchell.
"If they take the base, where will the kids go?" Hines asked. "Kids have to do something. If they build the marina I'm going to recommend they take the profits and build a couple more juvenile halls, because they're going to need them."
Pete Mandia, the Harbor Department's marina project manager, denies there will be any adverse impact on children if the marina and its recreation area are constructed.
"The Scout camp will be relocated to another area of the West Channel with beach frontage and of comparable size to the area they have now," he said.
The Board of Harbor Commissioners has made it clear it is committed to providing an overnight camp site in the marina's recreation area, and it will likely be larger than the site at the camp, he said.
Mandia said plans call for the camp to be shifted north to an area now occupied by Fort MacArthur's Lower Reservation, with 12 acres devoted to camping and 20 to recreating, including a launch and beach frontage for small boats. Some slips also would be made available to the Scouts, he said.
Mandia said how to allocate time and space to the scores of organizations that would want to use the area is a major problem now being pondered.
Hines and Mitchell also said the Harbor Department ignored the offer of a corporation to spend $300.000 upgrading the Scout camp if a long-term leavse for the land could be obtained.
Bert Keller, director of support services for the Los Angeles Area Council, said the offer was made a year ago by Hone Savings and Loan Association.
"This is the only facility and campground of its type in Los Angeles County that inner-city kids can reach via public transportation," said Ken Steindler, a San Pedro attorney and Scout member who has talked with Harbor Department officials on behalf of the Scouts.
Mandia said he had heard rumors about the offer, "But there have been no formal contracts that I'm aware of. I feel certain if there had been I would know about it."
He said the department has been soliciting public and private agencies and organizations to share in the cost of financing the marina project, and would welcome such an offer.
Mandia said any youth organization or its representatives entering into such an arrangement could feel secure and be assured of a lease long enough to permit them to recoup their investment.
Steindler said neither the Scouts nor the Harbor Department was unwilling to negotiate, and the Scouts' reaction to department plans would depend on what they were offered.
The Scouts' position is that they have had the base since the 1930s, he said, and have held it as a public trust for all youth groups.
He said the Scout base is the only available still water beach in the county from which boats can be launched safely.
Mrs. Hines said she wonders if the new location would be as safe with the addition of many pleasure craft in the area.
"There are thousands of boats there now," Mandia said, "and the addition of 900 more will not cause great congestion."
He said the West Channel has always been the site of much boating activity, and the proposed camp site will be just as good or better than the current location.
Steindler said the $1 million to $1.5 million the Harbor Department stands to make annually on the marina is not enough to justify displacing the 12,000 persons, mostly children, who use the Scout base.
"We should stop taking things away from children," he said. "I'm a lawyer, I see the bad ones in juvenile court. If the Scout base helps save just one of them, it's worth the money."
Mandia said as plans now stand, the Scout base would likely become the site of the marina administration building and a chandlery.

Scout Leaders Hope To Save Cabrillo Base

Members of the Los Angeles Area Council of the Boy Scouts of America say it's not true they monopolize the Scout camp at Cabrillo Beach in San Pedro.
The also say they hope to rally public support to prevent the camp from becoming part of a marina project to be developed by the Los Angeles Harbor Department.
The Harbor Department's proposed $20 million, 950-slip Cabrina Beach North Basin marina would swallow the 12 to 19 acres now occupied by the Scout camp.
Harbor officials have said they would replace the camp with a recreation area that "would be open to all youth organizations and not be limited to Boy Scout use as it is now."
Joseph and Olivia Hines, resident camp rangers at the Cabrillo Beach Scout Camp, and Jeff Mitchell, leader of Cub Scout Pack 611C, headquartered at Point Fermin Elementary School in San Pedro, said many organizations use the camp in addition to the Scouts.
The camp site is on city property operated by the Harbor Department, which leases it to the Scouts on a 30-day option lease. This means the department can reclaim the land after giving the Scouts 30 days notice to move.
Mr. and Mrs. Hines and Mitchell said many organizations not affiliated with the Scouts can and do use the camp after first making reservations at Scout headquarters in downtown Los Angeles. Applications are available at the camp.
Besides the Scouts, the camp is used by the Latter-Day Saints (Mormons), YMCA, YWCA, Salvation Army, Free Methodist Church, Utah State University, the San Diego Military Boys School, the Audobon Society, the Mexico Boy Scouts, Hobi Cat Sailing Regatta, Sol Cat Sailing Regatta, the U.S. Army, the Girl Scouts of America, the Sierra Club, the Mariner Leader's Skippers Association of Southern California, the Central American Boy Scouts, participants in the Little America International Cup Race, St. Marks Lutheran Elementary School, the Cabrillo Marina Museum, and visitors from Canada, Idaho, ....

Scouts' Camp Is Interesting
Visitors Find Boys of County Well Pleased With Outing At Mountain Resort
By Nelle Mae Howk
REDLANDS, July 5.-- Camp Arataba near Seven Oaks, where the San Bernardino area council of the Boy Scouts of America is encamped, is a place of thrilling enchantment to the boys who are attending the camp and to those who are visiting at various times during the six-week encampment.
It is located among the massive pines, high on the mountainside, at an elevation of 6,970 feet, near a clear mountain stream which is fed from the snow-capped hills above where one cannot miss the thrill of happy boyhood life filled with the cleanest, most wholesome life the splendid leaders of scout work are giving these boys. Boyhood at its best and faces shining are seen from early morn till the day is done.
Many improvements have been made in this second year of Camp Arataba. Many more are yet to be made. The greatest need of the moment is a mess hall. Water has been piped to camp, grounds being cleared to a wider expanse, and kept in splendid condition. The work of the camp is divided among the boys in charge of leaders who are responsible for the accomplishment of the work assigned to their group for the day. The quick, cheerful accomplishment of that work is ever in evidence -- the good-natured rivalry for honorable mention in personal and camp cleanliness, the ringing shout of praise given the winners show the breadth and nobility of the unselfish scout training. The scout aim throughout is that of the highest standard, leading and encouraging the boys to the highest type of manhood.
Scout executive George W. Walker is in charge, with Howard K. Merritt of San Diego, former scout executive of Riverside county, as camp director.
Visitors at Camp Arataba this weekend were Mr. and Mrs. H.S. Abbott and guests, Mrs. H.P. Wheaton; Mr. and Mrst. J.T. Cranmer, Mr. and Mrs. Harold Putnam, Mr. and Mrs. Barlow. Mr. and Mrs. C.D. Howk and son of Redlands, Miss Beas Eby and Mrs. E.R. Forsy of San Bernardino; C.A. Stobaugh and T.T. Workman, scoutmater and party of six Boy Scouts of Bloomington, and party from Victorville. The Bloomington scouts with Mr. Workman and Mr. Stobaugh and four of the camp boys left shortly after breakfast for an overnight hike to Greyback.
The visitors assembled with the scouts in their open air theater for morning services of which the boys had charge. The meeting opened with song and prayer led by Mr. Walker. The 12 scout laws were given and explained by 12 scouts. The law of the scouts as man to man and the selfsame laws as given by "the Heavenly Scoutmaster" with the rewards for obedience were expressed by the boys as they see them. Mr. Merritt gave a splendid lesson talk and the meeting closed with song, and prayer in unison.
The afternoon was devoted to showing the visitors over the camp. No points of interest were overlooked by these enthusiastic boys. A period of rest or recreation was enjoyed, then camp the call to mess. Heads bowed reverently and then such "good eats" as Mrs. Strawn and the scouts set out. At the close of the meal happy songs made the mountainside ring.
Sunday as the shadows fell, and night folder her cloak around us, we gathered around the camp fire. This was to be Indian night. The blanket-wrapped war-painted warriors assembled, the campfire was lighted by Brave Lash and the pow wow began. A pantomime of William Penn and the Indians was given by the braves, Indian legends and historical happenings of our own section of Southern California were told by others. Chiefs Walker and Merritt made short impressive talks. Each was greeted with the grunt of approval in true Indian fashion. The session closed with the scout evening song "Day is done, gone the fun, from the lake, from the hill, from the sky; all is well, safely rest, God is nigh." With heads bowed we visualise the song again as we hear the bugle from the mountain side and in our hearts know indeed God is near.

Report Funds for Camp Ahwahnee Over-the-Top, Anaheim Leading
Report Funds for Camp Ahwahnee Over-the-Top, Anaheim Leading
In a letter to all Camp Ahwahnee Development Fund drive workers, Adoph Schoepe, general chairman of the drive, expressed his sincere thanks, on the part of the entire committee, for the splendid work accomplished.
"I know that all of you are aware of the fact that our goal only included the minimum facilities required," he stated, "and many of the items may increase in cost before all our pledges are paid up and we are able to construct the projects. The swimming pool is one of the specific items that probably cannot be built at the estimated cost when the time comes."
Mr. Schoepe went on to say that due to the rapidly increasing population in this part of Orange County, additional facilities will most likely be required. In reminding the workers and the general public of this fact, he urged the workers to continue "to make every effort to clean up the prospect list which includes more than a thousand prospects who either were not called on or who were unable to give at this time."
A permanent Camp Ahwahnee Fund Committee has been appointed, consisting of Tom Eadington, John Hagn, Wayne Herbst, Brown McPherson and Mr. Schoepe, chairman.
Funds collected and pledged until May 21 are as follows: Anaheim $60,120.50; Fullerton, $45,677.29; Brea, $18,756.80; La Habra, $10,279.50; Placentia, $4,454.00; Yorba Linda, $335.00; Cypress, $1940.00 and the initital sales accounted for $41,000.00, making a total of $189,127.29. Los Alamitos and Stanton committees had not reported their collections at the May 21 deadline.
Assisting Mr. Schoepe as the head of the drive is Myrt L. Westering, executive vice-chairman.
Camp Ahwahnee is in the San Bernardino Mountains and will be a permanent camp for Boy Scout uses for many years to come.
