Scouting Home Remains Some
“We haven’t changed our
name...we’re still the Boy
Scouts of America,” says
the Tidewater Council in
response to numerous
inquiries based on several
misleading national news
stories.
Council president, Dr.
Daniel W. Duncan, stated
emphatically that the legal
corporate name of the Boy
Scouts of America had not
changed and that the
misunderstanding arose
over the BSA’s adoption of a
new communicative symbol
using the words
“SCOUTING-USA”, which
was mistakenly reported as
the new name of the 67-year
old Boy Scouts of America.
Hie official name of the
local council will continue to
be the Tidewater Council,
Boy Scouts of America. The
council will gradually in
corporate the new symbol
on its printed material,
signs, and other places
where a strong,
recognizable indentification
is required.
The BSA’s new bright red
and white symbol includes a
contemporary version of the
traditional BSA fleur-de-lis,

Scope of the Boy Scouts of
America.
Use Qf the Scouting-USA
symbol began last summer,
but full implementation is
expected to take several
years, according to Dr.
Duncan.
The traditional fleur-de-lis
of Scouting will continue in a
modernized form, Duncan
explained, but badges and
insignia denoting ad
vancement and office will
not be changed. Also not
changing will be the three
symbols for the Cub Scout,
Scout, and Explorer phases
of the total BSA program.
“The new look” for
Scouting-USA will help clear
up confusion related to the
youth' and adult leaders
scouting in committed to
serve, according to the
findings of a five-year study.
Duncan explained that
Scouting serves young men
and women as well as boys,
and that the word “boy”
was dropped from the Scout
phase of the program

several years ago. This was
not because of any pressure
from minorities or women’s
groups. Surveys showed
that the boys themselves did
not like to be called boys.
Scouting-USA was
selected as the BSA’s
communicative name
because women are now
serving as volunteers and
professionals, and have full
membership in the Ex
ploring program. Also,
there has been a need to
identify Scouting with the
United States of America
because the organization
does not serve youth in
South America, Mexico,
Central America, and
Canada.
The legal corporate name,
Boy Scouts of America,
which was established by . a
Charter from Congress in
1916 (six years after
Scouting’s founding in this
country), will still be used
along with the new Scouting-
USA symbol.

Oceanic Sewage Treatment System?
Is construction of a
sewage treatment system
that uses a site in the ocean
for disposal of its
wastewater technically and
economically feasible for
North Carolina’s coastal
areas?
Answers are being sought
by a team of scientists and
engineers at N. C. State
University, the University
of North Carolina at Chapel
Hill and East Carolina
University.
The scholars are
cooperating in a study to
determine the impact of
ocean outfall sewage
systems.
The two-year project is
under the direction of Dr.
Jay Langfelder, director of
the NCSU Center for Marine
and Coastal Studies.
Jointly funded by the
Coastal Plains Regional
Commission and the Office
of Marine Affairs of the
N. C. Department of ad
ministration, the research
project has been allocated
$228,400 for its first year of
operation.
According to Langfelder,
the study will develop tools
for assessing impacts of
offshore sewage outfalls on
public health and marine
life.
“We will be looking for the
best possible locations for
outfalls by collecting data
under a variety of en
vironmental conditions,” he
said.
In the initial steps of the
research, the nearshore
environment is being
defined for the development
of a mathematical model

that can predict the flow
path of the effluents.
Current and density
characteristics of North
Carolina waters will ,be
studied from the shore to the
continental shelf, since
large scale motions such as
the Gulf Stream can
significantly influence
nearshore conditions.
Final results of the study
will be used to assess
possible sites for discharging
wastewater safely and to
specify engineering design
criteria for ocean outfall
sewage systems.
Among those currently
involved in the study are Dr.
Gerald S. Janowitz and Dr.
Leonard J. Pietrafesa,
NCSU geoscientists who are
developing a descriptive
model of the physical
oceanography of the North
Carolina shelf.
Thomas Curtin, also and
NCSU geoscientist and John
Bane of the UNC-CH marine
sciences faculty, are
making field observations of
physical oceanography and
meteorology.
Yates Sorrell of the NCSU
mechanical and aerospace
engineering faculty and Dr.
Michael Amein, a civil
engineer, are developing a
model to predict the
movementandconcentration
of the effluent under various
meteorological conditions.
Studies that will provide
information needed to assess
the impacts of ocean outfalls
on both public health and
marine life will be con
ducted by a scientific team
from ECU and UNC-CH.
Among those who will be
involved later in various
engineering faculty.
A technical coordinating
committee of represen
tatives from the universities
and various state agencies
concerned with en
vironmental matters meets
quarterly to review
progress of the ex
perimental study which
other coastal states also
have an interest.
Kind hearts are soonest
