Many Agencies Join In
Campaign to Collect
Books for Servicemen
1 3,000 Boy Scouts Will Make House-to-House
Canvass and Set Up Collection Cen¬
ter in Downtown Area.
More than 13,000 Boy Scouts
will turn out for special duty —
pack and senior unit — in Houston
Saturday when they set out on a
house-to-house canvass for books
in the victory book campaign
which opens Monday.
The campaign’s purpose is to
collect as many suitable books as
possible for the men in our fight¬
ing forces, and good books in good
conditions are needed by the mil¬
lions.
The Scouts will have a tent at
the corner of Main and McKinney,
on the Presbyterian Church vacant
property, which will be one of the
I downtown collection centers,
manned by Scouts. Jack J. Keith,
area Scout executive, has an¬
nounced that the boys are taking
(part in this national campaign as;
jone of their major civic projects j
! in scouting. Glenn Rice, district
scout executive, is in charge of
the Houston Scouts’ book campaign
activities.

lection centers, under the U. S. O.
banner. A space on the second
floor has been set aside for this
purpose, secured through arrange¬
ments made by Walter Pierson of
the campaign’s steering committee!
with Edward S. Boyles and A. H.

tiating for a City Hall location as
another large collection and stor¬
age center where books may be
kept until the librarians haye time
to sort and classify them prior to
shipment.
Negotiations also are under way

homes they visit daily on their
routes. “Put out a good book with
each milk bottle” is the new and
convenient slogan for everybody.
