The Scoutmaster himself is an Eagle Scout. But what will make It a particularly memorable occasion will be the fact that the Scoutmaster is Bishop Lewis S. Wight, and the new Eagle Scout will be his son, Lee, who will be 17 years old the following day. Wight has been Scoutmaster of the troop in his ward the past 15 years. He had been a Scout as a youth, back in 1914, and attained Second Class rank. When he was elected Scoutmaster, he went to work with the boys ,and advanced with some of the members of his troop to Eagle rank. Lee will be the second Eagle Scout in the family, although he has two older brothers. Both of them have been Scouts, Dennis attaining First Class rank and Jay, a Life Scout, lacking only two merit badges for Eagle rank. Until 1945, Scoutmaster Wights troop was No. 103, but when the ward was divided and the Seventh ward created the troops were divided, too, and the new troop number was 100. Lee is a junior in Box Elder high school, and Is active in athletics. He was a member of the football team, plays basketball, and has been active in AmgHcan' Legion baseball. He is president of his junior class, a member of the Blvers, and formerly played clarinet in the band.

D. Gunderson, Chamber president, relast nights ported following meeting. At the meeting Monday morning, at which representatives of the Indian service explained the project, an equal representation of all civic, service and church groups of Brigham City was invited, and 125 persons attended the meeting. "This group was as representative of all elements of Brigham City as it would be possible for any gathering to be," Gunderson pointed out. "It wasnt a Chamber of Commerce meeting, and we had no more representatives at the meeting than many of the other mens and womens service clubs, church groups and others." Of that group of 125, approval of the Indian school was unanimous. Since then, the merchants committee has tested the vote of its representatives at the meeting by polling Brigham City business places and offices regarding the school. Of 69 establishments contacted, all but one favored bringing the Indian school here if possible, Gunderson said. He said other civic representatives, informally, had tested the groups they had represented at the meeting, and had been sustained in their affirmative votes. President of one of the Box Elder stakes of the L. D. S. church said yesterday that prior tcP the meeting Monday morning- he ha4- - polled his counsel ors and approved the Indian schooL .
