West Virginia, a Council 4 State, will hold one, and some Baltimore Scouts, led by Fred- erick R. Kruelle, expect to attend. It is now time definitely to decide whether to hold the annual Council 4 rally in Washington or not. All Boy Scouts and Lone Scouts should write to 1408 Meridan place northwest, ex- pressing their opinions and offering suggostions. This is viewed as just the thing to bring Council 4 and Wash- ington to the front in Lone Scout af- fairs. The city affords many enter- tainments besides the scouting events Tentative plans are being made now The rally will be held some time in July or August, if at all. There will be scouting and athletic events and awards made. One of the greatest issues ever published by a Lone Scout was got- ten out recently by Douglas G. Pep- pard.
