News in Brief: Scouts In The News. "In Washington, D.C., the Boy Scouts of America present a report of their year's activities to the President, their honorary leader. The Cub Scouts honor F.B.I. Chief J. Edgar Hoover, making him an honorary member." Scouts sit with US President Dwight Eisenhower, give him gifts. A Cub Scout shakes hands with Hoover and pins something on his lapel.
