The Boy Scouts of America, the nation's largest youth organization, and which has been heavily involved in litter-prevention litter-prevention activities for many years, and has been on the Keep America Beautiful Advisory Council since 1955, plans to lead the country's most massive litter clean-up drive Saturday, June 5, designated Scouting Keep America Beautiful Day. More than 6 million Scouts will turn out across the country to attack the litter in public areas and pile up the trash to focus attention on the tremendous amount of solid waste that is becoming a major disposal headache for many cities. In Spring ville and Mapleton all litter will be hauled to the trash dump and deposited in one large pile instead of collection points in the two cities, which make up the Hobble Creek District. Further details on this point may be obtained by contacting con-tacting Byron Cottam here. Boy Scouts are asking all individuals and organizations to get into the act. Many can join in helping to pick up the litter and many others can work to support them by providing transportation, tran-sportation, etc. Besides making the people aware of the massive litter problem, a second objective of Scouting's Keep America Beautiful Day is to make a dent in the litter problem itself. It is felt that after June 5, youths and adults alike, once they see what a clean alley, vacant lot,' or sidewalk looks like, will want to keep it that way. It has been shown that people who have been exposed always to a littered environment do not know anything else, and consequently, contribute more and more litter. But, when they see the results ot a ciean-up campaign, they will begin to appreciate an vironment and contribute to improved en-will en-will want to further im- provement. Another important point is that of recycling as an answer to the solid waste problem and how it can help. The master's degree programs in accounting and business administration at Brigham Young University have been accredited by the American Association of Collegiate Schools of Business, according to word received by Dr. Weldon J. Taylor, dean of the BYU College of Business. Accrediation was granted upon first application, which is unusual in the Association, Dean Taylor said. The BYU College of Business undergraduate programs have been accredited by the Association since 1963. At that time, however, the master's programs were new, but have now matured to a level among the leading programs of the nation.
