One drink is 1 oz. of 80-100 proof liquor, 12 oz. of beer, or 4-5 oz. of wine.
BAC CHART. Fitness Requirement 2
directs the Webelos Scout to point out to
an adult family member that drugs are
harmful. This chart illustrates how alco-
hol can affect a driver's ability to handle a
car. When the blood-alcohol content
(BAC) is 0.10% or more, the driver is
presumed to be intoxicated. (Some states
have even lower BAC limits.) A Webelos
Scout may show an adult this chart to
prove alcohol's influence and to discour-
age drunk driving.
HANDYMAN
SAWHORSES. Building two all-wooden
sawhorses, you can't get by with just one,
pulls into play several carpentry skills—
measuring, sawing, checking for square-
ness, nailing, and screwing. You may
even paint your horses.
Our sawhorses are simple wooden rec-
tangles and are therefore quite sturdy.
Make legs 30 inches or so, the cross-
pieces 40- to 48 inches long. Old ship-
ping crating works well as do 2x4s. But
the latter make for heavy horses. Strap
hinges screwed into place hold the two
sides together and allow you to fold them

up for easier storage. A piece of rope
knotted on the outside of holes drilled
into the two bottom crosspieces keep the
two sides from spreading too far apart.
NATURALIST
NATURE GAMES. On a nature ramble,
try some of these games which combine
fun and learning.
FIND 'EM. Each boy is given a written
list of things which may be spotted along
a hike route, with a point score for each.
First player to find one reports to the
leader and is given the appropriate score.
Examples: bird's nest (do not remove it),
10 points; oak leaf, 2; cardinal, 10; lin-
den tree, 5; dandelion, 1; poison ivy or
poison oak, 10 (with bonus of 10 points
for not touching it!); any animal track, 15.
TREE TAGGING. Divide den into two
teams. Give each team 20 strips of cloth
or paper and ballpoint or felt-tip pen or
baggage tags and china marking pencil.
Object of the game is for the teams to tag
as many different kinds of trees as possi-
ble within 100 feet of the starting point,

making correct identification. Set a time
limit. At the end of the time, the winners
are the team with the most correct tags.
MEMORY HUNT. Divide den into two
teams. Each team is seated facing the
same scene. For two minutes, all team
members study the view in front of them,
trying to memorize all plants, trees, and
animal life (including insects, birds, and
amphibians). At the end of two minutes,
both teams turn around and make lists of
everything they remember. Longest cor-
rect list wins.
FOOD CHAIN. (Note: Game requires a
leader with some knowledge of plants
and animals.) Find an insect nest or hive.
Tell the boys to observe the insects and
report what is below and above them in
the food chain; in other words, what the
insects eat and what other insects or ani-
mals prey upon them. This contest
should last until the boys have discov-
ered at least one food the species eats; it
may continue as long as their interest
lasts in observing the insects.
