The youngsters, members of 16 troops of the Mission Trails District of the Boy Scouts, policed the area thoroughly when they completed the golden jubilee Camporee yesterday afternoon. They set up camp Saturday morning, and between then and cleanup time, went through five different inspections that covered their gear, campcraft, commisssary methods, personal cleanliness and uniform and their camp sites. There were also competitions in scoutcraft and patrolling and bonus points for camp construction. The lads brought in everything they needed for the two days, except water, planned their own menus, chopped their kindling, even dried their garbage on h[...] stones before burning it. Awards were given before the boys left the campsite yesterday and each patrol received participation [...].
