A hundred Australian Boy Scouts arrived at Plymouth aboard the Largs Bay, bound for the Wembley Jamboree. They suffered from sea-sickness in the early stages of the voyage, and experienced rough weather in the Bay of Biscay. The only interruption was the daily Scout routine. Two troops of four patrols were formed on shipboard. The party reaches London to-morrow. The Australian Women's Welfare Committee to-day completed an interesting and attractive programme of entertainments and tours, commencing with a reception and luncheon at Australia House. There will be a reception by the Lord Mayor on Monday. Frequent visits to Wembley for the principal sporting fixtures' are ineluded in the itinerary.
