Love, the AssemDiy .mien!, nnd Wavnesvllle I heorfully help pay the ex- penses of the extensive program with their donations. The boys are divided into two teams, and the teams compete in every sport Mr. Crowder and his assistants know. At the end of the season, the winning team will get a prize. One of the highlights of each week is the overnight hike. The boys take a trip to a spot a bout four miles or more from the Lake, cook their own supper, and sleep under the stars. "We try to teach them how to take enre of themselves in the woods." the director explained. "And there have been times," said Wells, "when they have taught us." The boys from the rural sections are particularly helpful in that re spect. The main object of the club is to develop the competitive spirit and the spirit of sportsmanship play ing the game right. And the results have been high ly encouraging. Last summer, Mr, Crowder saw a 14-year-old boy standing by the dock. A cigarette Was hanging from his lips, and he was using some bad language around the other children. He spoke to the boy for a minute, and the youth became silent and sullen. Then he said, "You want to join Sk Med1 0 White Man's Initial Indian Lands Invasion-Seen In Drama I ;i x f W ; l;St itil4 1 ill : tf J wVf Nfw f JrfX - - tr ?i v L3 m '1 ft if III i i X-vr I 7yvs Comments From Some Of Our Visitors Among thc-oponinR scenes or tne Cherokee Drama is the one above, of DoSolo and his warriors talking to the Cherokee Chief, asking for gold.

The boy didn't answer then walk ed away. The next day, however, Mr. Crowder saw him tit the shore of the lake, again, shyly watehini; the other boys having a swimming race. This time he accepted the second invitation tu join the club. "The school term before, his principal told me," Mr. 'Crowder related, "this boy was neiir the bot tom of his class and was dangerous ly close to flunking al least one subject. "He didn't get along with his classmates very well, either." Early this season, Mr. Crowder checked with the principal again, curious about how the boy had done during the year after his in troduction to the club. "He had passed all his work, made the honor roll, and had a lot more friends," he said he was told. "I don't know whether our club had anything to do with that or not. But I like to think it did." The youth's attitude changed gradually' through that first sea son, he said, and before the sum mer was over he had become one of the best leaders in the club.
