Scone No. 2 is in Pomona. Mixing in a gay crowd, doing their duty, acting according to their creed and to do what they pledge themselves to, are a group of alert Boy Scouts. "Nothing unusual" you say. But before us passes a dark, straight haired follow wearing many Merit Badges. "Hoy, Manuel, wait up" yells someone deep in tho crowd. This '"lark follow turns in time to so a rod-headed freckled -faced kid stumbling, up to him with two ice cream.conos. Taking his Manuel and Rod walk off to-gother talking gaily about something and possibly going there to soo it togothor._
