Home My WebLink AboutLivonian1944_1213Livonia Scouts Given Awards The details of the program of the Court of Honor held by the Scouts of District 7 in the Plym- Suth High School on the evening of December 7th were not com- plete enough to report last week. But now it can be told. This nro- gram was the 36th held in this area by the district as a whole -ince its founding fourteen years ago. There have been courts where more advancement awards were distributed and the room was more crowded, but few more im- pressive. As usual when the E ��fle :cadge is being awarded the wh[DIP evening built up to a climax --the ,)resentation of Eagle ranks to four members of Troop RG -1 of Rose- dale Gardens, led by Herbert R. MacGregor as Scoutmaster. Five trumpeters .from Mr. Luchtman's music department )p- ened the program with a series of numbers. These boys were led by Frank Santos. After the formali- ties of the recitation of the pledge of allegiance and the Scout oath and law, Scoutmaster Clifton Heffron of the Stark troop show- ed some beautiful colored slides of the camporee held last fall by the Livonia troops in the Middle Rouge Parkway. George A. Smith, superintendent of schools, presid- ed over the court proper at which awards including Den Chief Cords, Second Class, First Class, Merit Badges, Star and Life Ranks were bestowed. A list of these follows this article. The following men assisted Mr. Smith: Henry Hees, Cubmaster of Pack 620; L. L. Go- ings, Scoutmaster of N-2 at the Training School; Dr. S. N. Thams of Plymouth; Mr. J. Johnson, Li- vonia Superintendent of Schools; Paul Harsha of Rosedale Gardens; Newton V. Gould, new commun- ity commissioner of Plymouth. Scouts Irwin Brink and Jean Thompson of P-2 read the re- quirements of each rank for the benefit of the audience. After the singing of the traditional "Trail the Eagle", the ceremony of the Eagle presentation took place. Those admitted to this rank were Bruce and Donald MacGregor, Harold Page, and Fred Weinert, all of RG -1. Sidney D. Strong, special field commissioner,.- was master of ceremonies, assisted by Newton V. Gould who read the citations. Sergeant Franklin Cow- ard, AAF, former P-1 Eagle, as escort for the candidates' mothers, George A. Smith, reader of the Eagle charge and Lt. Paul Thams, AAF, former P-1 assistant Scout- master, who presented the con- gratulatory letters and certificates to the four candidates and the badges to the mothers who pin- ned them on their sons uniforms. Their troop then presented cor- sages to the new Eagles to pin on their mothers' shoulders. The c=ourt dismissed. with the Scout benediction anJ the singing of "Taps''. An interesting sidelight to this presentation is the fact that Scoutmaster MacGregor and his wife now have three Eagles in their family, an older brother, Malcolm having received this hon- or in. .May, 1942. Mr. and Mrs. Harold M. Palle made a trip to the Howe Military school where their son is now a student to bring him to P]vmouth for the ceremony, arriving a short while before the program.

Vol. 5, No. 43 Wednesday, December 13 1944 War Fund Drive Goes Over Quota Under the very capable direc- tion of school superintendent Har- ry S. Johnson and his two assist- ants, Mrs. Henry Bock and Mrs. Carey the Livonia War Fund Drive went over its quota early last week. A sum of $2,600 was raised in the township during the drive and 'Ehere are still some funds not ac- counted for. Mrs. Earl Bedell was the first worker to vao over the top with her quota and Mrs. Timmer - son registered a net of 63% above her quota to lead the canvassers in that ,,4nnartment. All in all it was a most success- ful undertaking in Livonia and it gave this area the privilege of be- ing one of the few localities to reach its quota this year. Livonia Community SchoolNews Livonia Schools The sale of war stamps and bonds for Livonia township schools has gone over the top. Their anxiety to buy war stamps and bonds and to, do their part in the winning of the war in our favor is re pealed in the following figures: Elm, $279.30; Rosedale, $609.95; Stark, $104.80; Newburg, $966.15; Wilcox, $254.80; Pierson, $205.35; Livonia, $440.95; and the total was $2,861.90. —Jack Evert. Rosedale Gardens School The Boy Scouts have their Cubs, the Girl Scouts have their Brown- ies and the Boys' Safety Squad and the Girls' Service Squad have their Rabbits. These rabbits hop about on the school grounds pick- ing up waste paper and keeping the grounds neat. The "Rabbits" is a new organi- zation planned by the fifth grade. The captain is Donald Howell and his lieutenant is Georgiana Ham- ilton. They appoint workers ev- ert two weeks. Howard Clark and Donald Howell made "pick-up sticks" or sticks with nails to pick un waste papers. The school grounds are much neater since "The Rabbits" started working. Wilcox School A Junior Red 'Cross school coun- cil has been elected. Those repre- sentin_c,y their rooms are as fol- lows: Beginners—John Newberg; 1st grade Sandra Hall; 2nd grade ---Linda Page; 3rd grade—Betty Richards; 4th grade—Betty Smith; 5th grade—Nancy Magee; 6th grade—Iva Grant and Marjorie Berrington. A very worthwhile project has .Just been completed for Novem- ber. Last Tuesday afternoon the fac- ulty entertained the parents at a tea held in the school foyer. Pre- vious to the tea parents met in the rooms of their respective children and were given an explanation of the new grading system and stu- dy plan. Pouring at the tea were Miss Helen Graves, supervisor, Livonia township schools and Mrs. Noblett, .president of the Wilcox FTA. Assisting in the serving were Service Squad girls, Barbara Bab- cock, Lynn Rickert, Gay Ann Welland and Marilyn Schuma- cher. Newburg Junior High There is a contest on at New- burg Junior~ High among pupils in all the rooms. They are selling Christmas seals. Mr. Rossman gave each room one thousand seals and the first room to turn in all its money is to receive a plant as a prize. As yet, we don't know who will win.—Ruth. Balkema. The pupils of Newburg Junior High are doing everything they can to turn out some good toys, nut cups, and other articles for soldiers and refu' ees and hospi- tals. There have been many Christmas cards sent to Battle Creek and they are going to send some to Great Lakes for the sol- diers and sailor;; in 'hospitals to send home. One period every day this week is given up for Junior Red Cross. Everyone is doing their best. Barbara Goodbold. Pierson School First Grade—We are decorating our room for Christmas.

There were over 200 women, representing 30 parishes, present when roll call was taken. Father John E. Cont - way gave the invocation and welcomed the visitors. Mrs. C.

After the business session, St. Michael's Brownies and Girl Scouts presented the songs, danc- es and international skit which they had prepared for the rally and they received a tremendous ovation. This was followed by solemn benediction.

To conserve iron and steel for the war, the DercToit Edison Underground - Lines Department now builds manhole covers of rein- forced concrete, a filled-in spider web of steel. The concrete covers substitute successfully for the all -metal covers formerly used, and stand up well under heavy traffic loads. Each concrete cover represents a saving of about 150 pounds of iron and steel. _ I NECESSARY EVIL ... Paper work we have always with us. But the mass planning of war swells paper work to a flood tide, and the extra work behind the scenes sometimes reaches a fantastic amount. In order to get the required materials to serve our customers, Detroit Edison has had to file 12,111 individual applications with the WPB. The thousands of restrictive orders caused by the war require a reference set of 17 volumes to keen the Comnanv uD to date. ms's APPLE TREAT Our Home Service Department invites you to try this tempting dish: Apple Oatmeal Crumble 4 large cooking apples 1/4 tsp. soda 1/2 cup dark corn syrup 1/4 tsp. salt 6 tbsps. shortening 1/2 cup finely ground oatmeal 1/2 cup all-purpose enriched flour Grease a two -quart casserole. Peel and slice apples very thin, and place in casserole. Cover with syrup. Combine flour, oatmeal, soda and salt, and either cut or rub in the shortening. Sprinkle over mixture in casserole. Pat down very lightly. Bake in preheated 350°F. oven for 40 minutes. Serve hot or cold with cream or top milk. You save coal, transportation and manpower when you save electricity oil TURN OFF THAT LIC HT! ... Detroit Edison street light. ing is usually furnished to communities at a fixed annual rate. If you occasionally notice street lights burning in the daytime, this is done so that patrol men can check for burned -out lamps. On dark winter mornings, we keep street lights on somewhat longer than usual, as an added protection for children going to school. There is no charge for the extra electricity used in either of these cases. — �/lre �e�icoit L G'a rage Siir Music Diorector To Be Club. Guest The Rosedale Gardens Women's club held a meeting Thursday evening at the club house. Fol- lowing a brief business meeting Mrs. H. T. Valrance introduced the speaker, Miss Neva Lovewell of Plymouth who reviewed the book "Roughly Speaking," by Louise Pearson. The book is auto- biographical and tells the story of an American woman and her strong character and indomnitabie will to forge ahead regardless of obstacles. The authoress' ability to laugh at her own troubles was perhaps, her mostdelightful qual- ity. Miss Lovewell omitted the profanity with which the book's dialogue is plentifully sprinkled, but retained the sparkle and real- ity of the characters. The next meeting will be this Thursday and will be a musical program presented by C. A. Lucht- man, director of music of Plym- outh High School.
