"I was perusing through Troop 45’s history and I noticed an article from the Starkville Daily News that required date verification. It is dated circa 1963 – 1965. It was submitted by Mrs. Leota Cardwell. The article reads as more of a Watonala Lodge promotion and the Lodge’s participation in the V-E Conclave at Camp Salmen in Slidell, Louisiana. That Conclave took place in 1963, but I am unaware of the actual date." (Text courtesy of Watonala Arrowman Sam Graves) |

| Talking Warrior District, Pushmataha Area Council | |
| On October 31, 1960, the weekly Starkville News became the Starkville Daily News. With that change, local news became almost non-existent, and most SDN news became AP national and international news. This effectively stopped all detailed scout coverage in Starkville, and the good history source used from 1952-1960 ceased to exist. | |
| Scoutmaster | Dr. Corwin M. "Doc" Johnson. SM Johnson receives Vigil Honor during the annual Pushmataha Council Jamboree on April 30, 1960, during OA tap out. |
| Awards | Annual Council Jamboree: Eagle Patrol, Blue Streamer, 1,116 points; Bat Patrol, Red Steamer, 1,076 points; Woodsmen Patrol, Red Streamer, 1,040 points; Hawk Patrol, Red Streamer, 1,018 points. |
