and sometimes even barely concealed
hostility from rangers and trail walk-
ers. But they have never failed to see
these initial attitudes change to re-
spect after they have passed through.
They have made friends for Scouting
wherever they have gone by being ac-
tive conservationists and by making
sure that officials know it.
Bill Wadsworth and Ted Pettit sum
up the need very well:
"Some Scout troops are active con-
servationists, a few are actively de-
structive. Most, I guess, neither help
nor hinder the conservation of wilder-
ness.
"But to make Scouting shine, every
troop has got to become activists, ev-
eryone doing his part not only to main-
tain but to restore the outdoors." ■
