              The LOYOLA MAROON No. 14 Vol. XXXIV Loyola University, New Orleans, La., Friday, February 8, 1957 Girl Scout 'Mac' Tells How To Tour World By GAIL GRITTER Campouts, camporees, council fires, conventions, and now, college . . . that's the story of her life . . . the "her" being Carolyn McGehee, 18-year-old A&S freshman. From Brownie to intermediate to girl scout to mariner, Carolyn, known by and large as "Mac", has spent the last 10 years up to her neck in scouting. "It all started in the third grade when I changed to a new school and decided to join the Brownie troop to make new friends faster," the 5 ft. 4 in. I  pert brunette admitted. And it progressed through the various steps to the highest position possible of attainment—that of senior scout, Curved Bar rank, which corresponds to Eagle Scout in the boys' organization. "Requirements for the award," according to "Mac," "are 12 merit badges (she has 24) with an emphasis on one field. The field I chose was outdoor life. And I'm still plugging away at the same interest—biology is my college major." With an "A" in the course her interest is well rewarded.Other awards include the five possible awards in Mariner scouting, the highest being "helmsman," and "Ancilla Domini," the Catholic Church's award to girl scouts, and three service bars which represent 90 hours of service in child care, program and hospital work. In 1954 brown-eyed Carolyn attended the Junior Regional Convention at Knoxville, Tennessee, the National Convention at San Francisco in 1955, and in the same year the National Camp in Wyoming to which only two girls from each state were sent as delegates.But it was just last summer that the former Dominicanite received her biggest opportunity to see the world through the girl scout program."Each year Girl Scouts from six countries participate in an exchange program with the express purpose of cementing international friendship," Carolyn said. "The U. S., through the 'Juliet Low Friendship Fund,' sends 12 delegates, one from each of the 12 regions in the country. I was chosen to represent the Dixie region and together with a delegate from Seattle, Washington, visited Brazil for two months and a day.
