Page 4 THE EIGHTH TRIBE May, 1981 is not just a snake-skin one can slip out of with the changing seasons and slip into something else which seems more practical at the time being. We are not going to talk about politics or ideologies. From the viewpoint of our Hungarian identity these subjects are private, for which everyone of us has to carry his own responsibility. Our heritage, on the other hand, is the responsibility as well as the privilege of all of us, as a whole. 1 UiUibr radio We of the Johnstown, Windber area are very proud that we also have a Hungarian Radio program, Radio station WWBR — 1350 AM, licensed in Windber, Penna., for our listening pleasure and enjoyment in addition to the other Hungarian Radio programs in various parts of our great country of U.S.A.
