Council Round-up Will Be Held In Scotland Neck The East Carolina Council, Boy Scouts of America, will hold a Council Round-Up for the north ern half of the Council at Scot land Neck during the week end of October 4, 5 and 6 under the su pervision of Louis Alexander, prin cipal of the Scotland Neck High School and Camping and Activi ties chairman for the newly creat ed Roanoke District. Scouts from ten northern dis tricts of the Council will partici pate in the Round-Up, among these will be scouts from Halifax, Northampton, Hertford, Bertie, Edgecomb, Wilson and Nash. This will be the first time that the Council has undertaken to hold a fall meeting of Scouts of the Council. The fact that the spring Camporee was rained out and the expressed desire of many Scout masters to have a fall gathering of Scouts led the officials of the Council to plan the Fall Round Up. The Round-Up will be different from any former activity held by the Council in that all activities will be engaged in on a troop basis, rather than the usual Pa tril basis. Thus each unit will work as a complete unit rather than each partol as was done at the wwvvvvwwuwwwvwwn Camporee Since the plans for the Round Up will be different from former activities the Council will hold a briefing session for adult and junior leaders somewhere in the Council on the evening of Sept ember 30, for the purpose of as sisting the leadership in a better understanding of the activities that will be held at the Round-Up. The Council Round-Up will tie in with the National Round-Up that is being held in the fall through out the United States.
