One player is nominated by each competing Patrol to act aa a Dispatch
Bearer. It is the aim of the Dispatch
Bearers to go from a known spot, (or building) across a section of road. The one
to get across first to score the highest points for his Patrol;
the second next most and so on.
The boundaries,
beyond which no player may go, are known to all of the players.
Each Dispatch Bearer carries a neckerchief loosely slipped through the back
of his belt and to be considered captured, the neckerchief must be removed by an
opnonent. At no, time during the game may the searching for
Dispatch Bearers approach nearer to the road, which is the objective, than 200
yards (or other distance as circumstaces demand).
The Dispatch Bearers
leave their starting point, at a fixed time, and the remainder of the Scouts
are ready, on the ground to intercept them, but must hot see them leave.
It is the job of the Scouts to capture Dispatch Bearers from the other Patrols
and to do their utmost to assist their own Patrol Dispatch Bearer through.
