The song, which he wrote with Johnny Wayne, has been record- ed, several times and made the hit parade charts here and in l✓ngdand a couple of years ago. "It's still selling. teo." says Dobby, "nothing spectacular but I get a royalty cheque every three months. It looks as if it's going to become a standard.•' 'Re laughed. "'At the moment, Johnny and I call it the sub- standard.'' • Although electronic devices were used to produce the cricket :Found on other records, Bobby slid the chirping on his own ver- sion. "When I was a youngster ice Cabri, Sask., I used to listen to nature sounds and try to mimic • them.' he said over coffee at the ('B(' cafeteria "When I mastered the .cricket's ehirp I decided that when I grew up 1 d use the sound somehow," Bobby has written several ether songs and he ang one for use that I'm sure could hot the top.

These two men have carried on the troop for over a year alone, They have worked very hard and all the scouts appreci- ate their fine efforts. W°ben the troop was re-formed after the Scout house had been built, Scouter Hal Rooke took over as SM. The following year Terry Lawn enee became SM because Scouter Ha1's work in the Ausable River Conservation Authority took a large amount of his time. The next year Terry went to the rescue of the Centralia troop and this, left Scouter Ralph our new SM. Scouter Ralph has his Gitwell wood badge, a hard-earned badge for leaders, and Scouter Ilal is %working hard on his and should soon be clone. Our leaders work hard all the time. During the year they super- vise our fair booth, cutting and selling Christmas trees, all camps (they require a great deal of organization), • and preparing our displays which were seen in Exeter shop Windows recently. And during the peck they spend hours planning regular troop meetings. conducting the court of honor and passing tests. However all 'the credit doesn't go to Scouters Ha] and Ralph for they both have wives and children who deserve the atten- tion that goes to us, the Scouts. Instead of insisting their hus— bands bands stay home they 'allow the Scouters to spend time. with us and a sincere thankyou from all the boys is extended to Ralph and '.Hal and their families.
