The first annual Kermebegwin District Appreciation Dinner was held Thursday night in the new Community Building at Cloverdale, for the adult members of the scouting movement in the Kennebegwin District.

Actmg as Master of Ceremonies, Bill Berry introduced the speaker for the evening, Rev. Loveland. The Kennebegwin chaplain spoke very highly of the scouting movement and pointed out what scouting actually means to a child both in younger years and as an adult. He spoke of how scouting builds a boy into an asset to society. “A scout may become a liability to his government or an asset,” he stated. He w r ent on to mention that the responsibility of building the character of a Boy Scout depends upon the adult leadership. “I know of no better place to develop a scout’s loyalty to God than in the scout movement.” he said. “If you want to build a living memorial, build it into a boy and he will build it into another.” George Ranes. President of the Wabash Valley Council, commented upon the District appreciation dinner meetings that are being put into effect. The District meetings are replacing the former annual Council meetings held in Terre Haute. Mr. Ranes also stated that he felt some of the finest men in scouting came from the Kennebegwin District. Wabash Valley Council Executive Loyal McMillian spoke of how the young men of today can influence boys to enter scouting and how they can contribute to the molding of a scout's character. Several awards, including ten year pins and Unit Leader Awards, were presented to the adult leaders and various sponsors of the scout movement. The major award of the evening w as the Silver Bea\ er Award given to the man chosen for his “distinguished service to boyhood in the territory under the jurisdiction of the Wabash Valley Council.” The award is the highest award given in a district.

Students Hear News Analyst News analyst-lecturer Lisa Sergio delivered a stern warning to the current generation which she said must begin striving “not for quantity but quality, not for the most but for the best.” Lecturing at DePauw University yesterday, Miss Sergio warned that “we are going under as a civilization.” She suggested that our preoccupation with material wealth was going to be the instrument of our destruction. “You cannot have a religious dedication in your lives to something that is material—those material things that bedevil us at every stop,” she said. “We mouth the idea of American freedom, but we aren’t ready to sacrifice one material thing that will really enable us to maintain it.” A former aide to Dictator Benito Alussolini who became disallusioned with Fascism, she criticized America for its devotion to cars, houses and bank accounts instead of a “religious dedication to the principles of this country.” Though strongly anti-Com-munist herself, she said Russians were dedicated to their way of life, a way many nonaligned nations were choosing because of America's hypocritical stance on such issues as civil rights. A movement away from America's brand of government was described by Miss Sergio who said that what was not needed was “a one party system which we seemed to have achieved here.” “You can never permit totalitarian regimes to achieve a majority control: people then surrender to their ideologies. This, of course, occurs through a democratic process, for they have just enough majority to pass laws to kill democracy.” Robber Sentenced DAYTON, Ohio UPI —Curtis Alvin Angell, 31, Indianapolis, headed for a federal prison today to begin a 21-year term for bank robberies in Indiana and Ohio.
