• 1990 •

Our friend Julius Varga happened to stop by in Tihany during his travel in Hungary. He brought back two photographs depicting marble plaques. One was in memory of those who died in WW I, and the other listing those who died in WW II. If you compare the names you will find that many

of them are identical on both plaques. They were father and son. It is heart-breaking if you think about it. It is also a question of what good was left to the family which made these extreme sacrifices. Let us hope that there will be no more need for another marble plaque.

A HUNGARIAN LEADER OF THE NUCLEAR AGE PASSED AWAY

Eugene Paul Wigner, Nobel Prize Laureate, went a long distance from Budapest where he was bom, to finally end up in the United States. He also went a long distance in the field of knowledge from what he learned in high school, at the Fasori Evangélikus Gimnázium, to become a professor at Princeton and become a worldfamous scientist in nuclear physics.

It is hard to describe and put into the language of laymen what his scientific accomplishments were. Besides science, he had a determining role affecting the history of the United States and the whole world. In 1939 with his fellow Hungarian expatriate, Leo Szilard, they composed a letter, persuaded Albert Einstein to sign it, and had Alexander Sachs deliver it to the President. This letter pointed out that the Germans might build extremely powerful bombs based on atomic fusion. PresidcntRoosevelt realized the seriousness of the matter, took the proper steps and started the Manhattan Project. As a result the Atom Bomb was built that put an end to the war.

At the age of 92 Eugene Wigner died. He was a great Hungarian American.
