COVER: Order of the Arrow: 50 Years of service. How to honor the American Flag. Cats I have Known, by Walter Chandoha. Ace in the Clouds, World War I True Adventure. Cover painting by Robert Peak.

THIS MONTH'S HIGHLIGHTS: It's June and BL is busting all over with a rainbow of reading matter. Leading off on page 13 is Keith Monroe's fine article reviewing the Order of the Arrow's Fifty Years of Cheerful Service, which is the subject of artist Robert Peak's exciting cover illustration. . . . And hot on its heels is a fast-paced true adventure of one man and countless animals caught in the horror of a forest fire. The Image is authored by A. B. Guthrie Jr., recipient of the Pulitizer Prize for his excellent novel, The Big Sky. Next, construction engineer Walter Nashert takes you to the top of a towering scaffold and a Crest of Fear as he creates a tale of tension and courage, starting on page 18. After such high-wire reading, you can relax with our feature spotlighting both the latest in water sports and Clothes That Make a Splash for hot-weather wear. . . . Then plunge right back into excitement with Forever the Wild Mare, on page 22. In this unusual story Ann Cottrell Free tells how a gang of hoodlums releases a wild mare from a zoo, and how a country boy-and a camel-bring it back alive. Animals are always the subject for world-renowned photographer Walter Chandoha, who shows and tells about the fascinating, funny, frolicsome Cats I Have Known, page 25. Charles Goodyear achieved international fame as the Rubber Man for his brilliant accomplishment of taming raw rubber. But, as Elizabeth Sturz relates on page 44, his was a long, hard struggle against nearly impossible odds. Another long, hard struggle was World War I, and Ace in the Clouds Frank Luke was one of the great fighter pilots who lought in it. John Bowers dramatically brings to life the grimness and glory of those early days of air warfare, beginning on page 31. . . . June 14 is Flag Day, but the American flag should he honored every day of the year. The how s. why's, when's and where's of respecting Old Glory are the topic of BL's special section, Long May It Wave. This flag should be removed from BL to make a colorful and informative wall decoration. . . . That's it for now, guys. Happy reading and happy days!.
