YOUR MEMBERSHIP IN THE HUNGARIAN EIGHTH TRIBE FOUNDATION WILL HELP US TO PROTECT AND PRESERVE YOUR HUNGARIAN HERITAGE FOR PRESENT AND FUTURE GENERATIONS OF HUNGARIAN-AMERICANS WHAT IS THE EIGHTH TRIBE? The Hungarian Nation when entering the Carpathian Basin in the 9th century A.D. was composed of seven Magyar tribes of Scythian origin. Many hundreds of years later some of the people left Hungary for a newly discovered land — and this segment became the Eighth Tribe. To those who were born in this land, speaking or not the Hungarian language, Reformed, Lutheran, Catholic or any other faith, even if only a trace of Hungarian origin in them, to these this Magazine is dedicated. There are many social activities pursued by today's generation to further or keep up some of the Hungarian customs in their own respective areas. We would like to bring all these to our readers, so they know what is happening in Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Detroit, Chicago, New York, Florida and California or wherever it may be. Send us pictures and descriptions of Hungarian Heritage Conference May 26, 27, 28,1984 Lord Ligonier Inn, Ligonier, Pennsylvania During the past years the excuses for not attending the Conference were that the date was not satisfactory. There must have been a dozen affairs planned for that weekend or for the whole week. The Labor Day weekend is completely unacceptable, for there are three or four conferences scheduled here in Ligonier, and many other affairs in different cities. So we selected the Memorial Day weekend for this year’s Conference. Once again there are a few who would like to attend, but their societies already planned an affair for that time. At the same time, some agreed that this date is better than during the summer months. We have reserved rooms at the Lord Ligonier Inn (formerly Holiday Inn) for that weekend. Your reservation should be sent to us on or before May 19th. Special room rates are: single occupancy $32.00; double occupancy $35.00 per day. Plus 6% sales tax. Registration for the Conference is $25.00; husband and wife, $40.00; and includes the Sunday evening banquet. Please send your reservation to: Hungarian Heritage Conference, P.O. Box 637, Ligonier, PA 15658. Some of you are living nearby and need no hotel reservations, but we still need to know your intention to attend, for we have to plan some of the meals. your groups. There are many of the second and third generation, who have achieved distinguished fame in their fields. We would like to bring this to the attention of our readers, so all of us can be proud of their achievements. The first issue of The Eighth Tribe was published April, 1974. DR.
