Mr. Colquhoun added:-
"The moral is obvious-run no riska. Our races do not take place after all the entrants have been in camp, nor are Cubs prepared daily by means of progressive recreation under an expert who knows his job, and can train them properly. That being so, it is far better to confine our Cub sporting events to testa recognised in the Athlete's Badge and to competitive games of various kinds."
Commenting on a report which has not renched Boy Scout Head- quarters regarding the recent! Rover Scout Moot at Kandersteg | when 3,000 Rover Scouts assembled from 23 countries Punch says:-
"Swiss girls are reported to have been in tears when the Bri- tish Rover Scouts loft Kunderatug. It is a poignant thought for a Rov or that he has made a Swiss miss miss him."
