Partygoers Drunkenly Recite 4-H Pledge

MISSOULA, MT—The 4-H pledge was drunkenly recalled Saturday, when a trio of former 4-H members recited the international youth organization’s oath between swigs of beer at a house party. “I pledge my Head to clearer thinking, my Heart to greater loyalty, my Hands to larger service, and my Health to better living,” shouted a heavily intoxicated Benjamin Brower, 29, who was active in 4-H from 1984 to 1986. “Holy shit, I can’t believe I still remember that.” The nostalgic group chant was followed by an attempt to recall what “Webelos” stands for.
