Description
An account of the resource
Kenneth was very much interested in young people. He mentions his work with the youth at the Columbus, New Jersey, church. In Bangkok, this carried over. He organized many young people and played several sports with them before he began his bicyle gang. In no time at all, he built up a gang of thirty or forty fellows, all with bicycles. They would all wear white duck pants and go through the jungle, on the narrow jungle paths, and cover an incredible number of miles in a day. In this way Kenneth got to know many of these young men, heard many of their conversations and learned about their families. He tells of the "kidnapping" of girls and the story of one young man on his sports club who evetually won the championship games for Thailand and nearly beat the Japanese champion
