Show , SCOUTS ARE 1 PREPARING FOR CARAVAN Timpanogos District Scouts To Make Bryce Canyon Trip Monday "Ta, ta, ta-ta-ta-ta, ta, ta-ta-ta-ta-ta'-ta! Ta, ta-ta-ta-ta-ta, Ta! Ta! Ta !" Some people may not know what all of those ta-ta-ta's mean, but oil of the Boy Scouts of the Timpanogos district council will recognize in them the assembly call. They will know that that is the sound of the bugle calling them to the rendezvous rendez-vous at Santaquin on next Monday at 7 o'clock a. m. . .Next Monday morning, long before the sun is up long lines of khaki clad Scouts will wind down from the settlements In various parts of the council ready to embark in a truck or car for Santaquin where they are to meet Chief A. A. Anderson Ander-son and the remainder of the group who will make the trip into the Bryce canyon country. At Santaquin,. Bishop George W. LeBaron will be ready to start the group off right by telling them an Indian story which will explain why the name of his town was changed from Summit to Santaquin. After the story, the horns will toot and the cars will leap forward, only to stop at Nephi at the corner of the famous old fort where another Indian story, as true as history, will be told. From that point the trail will lead south to Bryce, although the caravan will stop every few miles to learn the history of the surrounding region. In- this way, riding and listening, the caravan will go by easy stages to Bryce and back. The Scouts will find that the road is a long winding trail of interest, and that really deserves the name, "The Old Mormon Trail." x This year the boys will carry enough food for the trip. They will camp out and do their own cooking, thus making the trip a genuine camping outing. It is expected that approximately 300 will take this caravan trip to Bryce. The excursion will last five days instead of four. |
