A third magazine is needed?

Each month on about the same day we recieve at my home copies of Boys
Life and Scounting magazine. If I am lucky I see Scouting again within a
week. It seems my son who is near 16, and an Eagle Scout, has little or
no interest in the contents of Boys Life, it is written for Cub Scouts he
says, and it takes him a day or two to digest all of the ideas in the
"adult" magazine.
Perhaps "National" should look at putting out a magazine aimed more at
the teen aged Scout. I think it would be one step to let these boys know
that "scouting" is interested in them too... as this is a group we seem
to be having difficulty holding the attention of.
