First Aid officials have requested the services of Juneau Scouts to establish a Scout Messenger Corps, according to W. C. Kennell, District Scout Commissioner. The plan in- volves the assignment of one or more Scouts to each of the 20 First Aid stations Are Assigned In accepting the responsibility on behalf of the Scout organizition, Mr. Kennell said, “This will give Scouts an opportunity for a practical application of their Emeryency Service training. At present Scouts are already assigned to each cof the 32 Civilian Defense Area for the dis- tribution and collection projects they have engaged in recently. “Immediate plans call for no change in the present assignments | for the time being except that in the case of an alert in which the First Aid personnel are participat- ing, Scouts will report to the Firsf Aid Stations whose area encompa: es the area they are normally re- sponsible for in collection and dis- tribution services. Parents’ Permission “In the meantime Scouts will be certified for this type of service as soon as possible, which includes se- curing parental permission ,and meeting certain requirements to ob- tain the Scoutmaster’s recommenda- tion. “I4 is possible that Cubs will be called upon to serve as patients for First Aid squads during practice alerts to replace the Scouts wh have been doing this previously.” e ALASKA COASTAL MAKES SCHEDULE, CHARTER FLIGHTS Passcngers from Juneau to Sitka Hecker, Dennis Sheppard, William ley Ann Edwards, James Goenett, J.
