Caswell County Boy Scouts: 1940

Caswell County Boy Scouts: 1940 

"A group of Boy Scouts representing troops at Prospect Hill, Yanceyville, and Cobb Memorial Schools, demonstrated some of the activities of scouts at a meeting of the Rotary Club Tuesday night.

"Scouts from Prospect Hill, under the direction of W. H. Tuck, scoutmaster, demonstrated first aid methods and artificial respiration.

"Scouts from Cobb Memorial under the direction of A. I. Park, scoutmaster, demonstrated signaling and knot-tying.

"Scouts from Yanceyville under the direction of L. O. Crotts, scoutmaster, demonstrated the proper uses of the United States flag and Mr. Crotts put on a quiz program by asking various Rotarians about the flag. L. O. Crotts, co-educational agriculture teacher at Bartlett Yancey School, was inducted into the club as a new member by President Holland McSwain. The mean was served by women of the Locust Hill community."
