As It Stands In Ann Arbor: As always, the Boy Scouts were on hand early and prepared for their part in the Freedom Train exhibition. But, like the scouts above, it was imperative they size up the situation from all angles -- particularly the sleek engine with its golden eagle decoration. During the day the scouts distributed pamphlets describing the documents on display in the three special cars, controlled the drinking fountain, and aided with the Rededication Scroll which visitors signed upon leaving. The scroll, now bearing well over two million signatures, will be sent to the Library of Congress.

East Ann Arbor dedicated a stone memorial to her heroes of World War II and the Korean War in Memorial Day ceremonies yesterday. The memorial stone, furnished by the East Ann Arbor Women's Club, carries the promise: "In the Glory of Their Youth We Shall Remember Them." This is the general scene as Scout units and residents took part in the dedication. Elmer E. Mayer, (top, right), commander of the Graf-O'Hara Veterans of Foreign Wars post, spoke briefly during the ceremonies.
