From the June 23, 1962 edition of The Wayne Herald:
Eight Boy Scouts awarded
Eight scouts of Troop 174 received awards Sunday during a morning picnic with families.
Mike Debow, Second class; Marc Debow, First class; Dan Ress, Bob Johnson Jr. and Dave Rees, all three Star rank; Ronald Wriedt, Bob Wriedt and Eric Manley, merit badges.
The annual breakfast was to have been held at the Izaak Walton lake, where the troop set up camp Saturday afternoon.
The boys finally decamped after the evening rain saturated everything and threatened to flood the premises. The picnic was moved to the college shelter house.
