HOY SCOUTS OK AMERICA
About our cover: At a junior leader
training (JLT) course, a Scout falls back-
wards into his comrades' arms, learning
trust as well as self-confidence. Our story
on the new JLT program, which emphasizes
developing trust between Scoutmasters and
junior leaders through the concept of
"shared leadership," begins on page 32.
