   The findings could "show parents why they'd want to put a child in scouting," said Kevin Beirne, 38, finance director of the Cherokee Area Council, one of roughly 300 in the nation's 94-year-old scouting network.
   
   The Boy Scout poll drew 234 male respondents, according to Mr. Beirne. He said it included nine questions, similar to those that appeared on the Research Council's 96-question survey.
   ...
   Some 40 percent of the Research Council sample said they'd tried it, but only 6 percent of the scouts, according to Mr. Beirne.
   
   Only small percentages in both groups -- 12 percent of the Research Council sample and 4 percent of the scout sample, according to Mr. Beirne -- said they'd seriously considered suicide within the past year.
   
   Mr. Beirne said the Cherokee Council doesn't "look at it (the scout survey) as a fund-raising tool."
   
   He said the council also did a scout survey in 2001 and weighed it against the Research Council's 2000 report on teenagers' risky behaviors. The earlier comparison was done "in working with the United Way to show that scouting does make a difference," he said.
