| Some Boy Scouts of Chapel Hill at a Jamboree in Tarboro in the late
1930s. Joe Burton Linker, who owns the photo, was in Troop 5, the first
troop in Chapel Hill. Pictured are friends of his from Troop 9: Dan Hamilton,
who became a geologist; Thomas Pritchard, who would become one of 29 local
men killed in service during World War Il; and Bill Koch (son of Fred Koch,
who started Playmakers), who became a professor of zoology at UNC. |
