Mrs. Margaret W. Price, who

was national president of the Girl Scouts of the U.S.A. from 1963 to 1969, died

of cancer today. She was 62 years old. Mrs. Price, who was known to her friends

as “Tuck,” was the wife of Holton R. Price Jr., board chairman of W. H. Markham

& Company, an insurance concern. She had served the Girl Scouts in many

capacities on local, regional and national levels for more than 30 years. She

also had been a member of the women's auxiliary of the board of the St. Louis

Symphony Orchestra, and had been on the boards of Barnard Cancer Hospital, St.

Louis State Hospital and the Missouri Historical Society. At her death she was

president of the St. Louis Mental Health Association, a director of the

National Center for Voluntary Action, board chairman of Missouri Youth for

Environmental Quality — a statewide organization she founded in 1969—and

chairman of the Girl Scout National Centers Development Committee. In 1960,

Mrs. Price was named St. Louis Woman of the Year in the youth service field. In

1963 she received the Matrix Award of the St, Louis chapter of Theta Sigma Phi,

women's professional journalism organization, for services to her home

community. In 1965, she was elected to the Missouri Academy of Squires, a group

of 100 persons who have distinguished themselveo in business and in the

professions while serving their communities, state and country. In 1972, the

Missouri Conservation Committee honored her for her commitment to environmental

preservation in the state. Mrs. Price traveled widely for the Girl Scouts. She

was a United States delegate to several World Conferences of the World

Association of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts. Mrs.

William McLeod Ittmann, the current national president of the Girl Scouts,

noted yesterday that Girl Scouting's National Center West, a. 13,000; acre

expanse in Wyoming, had become a reality in‐Mrs. Price's final years in office, and

credited her “drive and dedication” as having made the

acquisition possible.
