Organ  Transplant   Drive Newest  Good   Turn
Scout's
The need for human organs and tissue transplant donations will be the focus of a nationwide appeal to be conducted this fall by the Boy  Scouts of America.
A  grant  of $400,000  to  underwrite  the  program  will  come from W.K. Kellogg Foundation, of Battle Creek, Mich., and substantial  addditional support  is being provided by Dow . Chemical  Company.
BSA officials said the  Good Turn  will involve up to  1.5 million youth volunteers from Boy  Scout troops,  Varsity  Scout teams  and Explorer posts.
Each will discuss organ  and tissue donation with his  (her) own family and four other households in the neighborhood.  In addition, BSA youth members will distribute literature and donor cards  and will  take part  in other donor awareness activities.
The goal will  be to encourage family members  to tell their next-of-kin their personal wishes relative  to donation if they are involved in  an  accident resulting in their death.
The program is being conducted in cooperation with the American Council on Transplantation,  an "umbrella" organization of some 80 health-related  agencies.
Kellogg officials called the donor awareness program "an important campaign,"  and Chief Scout  Executive  Ben H. Love, in accepting the $400,000 funding support said the grant  will "ensure success  (of a program)  which will help untold numbers of Americans in need of vital transplants."
In addition to providing monetary backing and promotional hterature,  Dow  Chemical  Company has loaned  a top executive to the BSA. Donald  Hannegan, of Midland, Mich., corporate director of purchasing, packaging and design,  and product safety compliance,  will serve as national volunteer coordinator of the Good Turn.
"We expect  to reach up to six million American families," Chief Scout  Executive Love said.  He noted that  last year over 17,000 American lives were lost  due to  a shortage of donated human tissue  and organs.
In  addition to meeting with families.  Scouts will be aik- ed to  appear before school,  community,  and civic  groups to talk  about the Good Turn; design posters;  encourage support from media;  and volunteer their time to help member agencies of the American Counsil of Transplantation.  Scouts  and Explorers are being encouraged to invite non-BSA youth members to join them in conducting the Good Turn.
The campaign will run through the end of the year. A report will be given to President Reagan in Weishington during the 1987 Scouting Anniversary  Week celebration next February.
Father John Powell    MARCHING ¦ii      REDSKINS
KICK OFF 1986 SEASON
by Judy Riedl
The first performance of the Marching Redskins and Forenza Colorguard will be at half-time at the home football game on September 26th.
The band will be perform¬ ing the first two selections of a three selection show. the theme is futuristic and pop, featuring an arrangement by Jeff Redmann and an Axle F drum solo arranged by Mike Urban.  The band will also feature bass guitar and a keyboard synthesizer through¬ out the show.
The Marching Redskins start the year in good form, with a very successful band camp September 6th and 7th. Regular rain during the day, forbidding the band from rehearsing outside, handicapped them only slight¬ ly.  The Forenza Colorguard has also been hard at work. Starting with the Band Camp, they have had very productive rehearsals, sharing many creative ideas.
This year marks an important step in the development of the fall band and colorguard program. Special effort h>s been given to schedule the Junior High students into the marching band, enabling all of them a chance to perform with more experienced musicians and also stabilizing the membership and organization of the unit.  The instruc¬ tional staff has been augmented by volunteer alumni on a regular basis.
The colorguard staff is comprised of:
Sherilyn Aiella, consultant Missy Reeves, alumni Tanya Pupich, drum major Jeff Redmann, coordinator
The band staff is com¬ prised of:
Jeff Redmann, Band Director Mike Urban, Alumni percussion
Congratulations to the 86/87 band officers: Julie Bunt, President Cory Provenzano, Vice Pres. Chris Brown, Secretary Dan Zemanek, Treasurer Jan Korotasz, Co-librarian Patricia Meier, Co-librarian

Voters to Decide
On
Two Constitutional
Amendments
Two proposed amendments to the Illinois Constitution will be submitted  to voters on November 4,  1986,  accord¬ ing to Secretary of State Jim Edgar.  Edgar said one of the amendments concerns the cata- gory of persons who may be denied  bail  by  the  courts, while the other would author¬ ize the  General Assembly to pass legislation exempting from taxation property used exclusively for veteran's organizations.
In  acc(irdance with Statute,    , the Secretary of State's off¬ ice has distributed to local election  authorities pamph¬ lets explaining both  amend¬ ments, including arguments in favor of and  against each one. The pamphlets  are being mailed to Illinois'  approxi¬ mately 6.1  million  registered voters.
"These two proposed  amend¬ ments to the Illinois  Consti¬ tution  affect  every citizen in our state,"  Edgar said. "I urge voters to carefully ex¬ amine  the  pamphlet  so  they can make informed decisions on these issues."
State law requires that  a copy be mailed to each reg¬ istered voter.
For passage, each  amendment must receive either 3/5 of the votes cast on the issue or 50 percent  of all ballots cast.
