1937-09-30 / 40. szám

September 30, 1937 Who is who in Dearborn Branch 429 One of our fair lassies celebrated lier first non-teen birthday with a large party at which were present sever­al Verhovay members. Among the guests were the inseperable pair, Mary Ra­­koczy and Cecelia Herman, wearing those new-fangled hats that reminds one of a Chinese Pagoda. (Hoping you don’t mind Sis). Steve, Yolan, Helen, Nick and all the rest of the Horvaths, while I’m mentioning the name. Wiliam G. Cseh, our dignified president. He had in tow Stella Metelski, She, (is it true?) may be the' future Mrs. (And a prospective. Verhovay mem­ber). Elvira and Oliver László, (They finally de­cided to visit the South End of Dearbonr). That Ollie kid sure can swing them there long legs of his to music. Our popular mar­ried couple, Jolán and Louis Lucas and from Branch 374 of McAdoo, Pa., came George Kuritar, the Hor­vath Family’s cuz. Mr Ku­­ritar’s father is the Secre­tary of that Brarich. I hear the family is moving to Dearborn. Oh, I suppose I should mention whose party it was — Jeannette Horvath. Welcome to our Branch Stephen Schnable. He was transferred from Branch 435 of Wyandotte. Let’s give him a big hand and make him feel like one of us. The Girl’s Club of Dear­born is going over with a bang. Two more Verho­vay members belong — Ce­celia and Mary. They, with Jolán Lucas (a prominent member and Officer of the Club) will be on the Club’s badminton team. When they get good, they’ll challenge some Verhovay Branches to play agin us. Dearborn is proud to an­nounce the names of its two bowling teams to compete with other Branches in the Verhovay Bowling League of Greater Detroit. (Is that what it will he called, George Noch, of Branch 356?) On the men’s team will be Louis Lucas, William G. Cseh, our president, George Kuritar (from Branch 374), Steve and Nick Horvath. On the ladies’ team will be Elvira László, Jolán Lucas, Yolan Horvath, Cecelia Herman and Mary Rakoczy. If there there are any other mem­bers wishing to bowl this winter, kindly communicate with our Secretary at 10037 Burley, Dearborn, or Geoge Noch, President of Branch 356 at the Verhovay Home. More of these plans will be announced from time to time. Prizes are promised to all teams and the Season wil end up with a bang-up banquet for the members. Get in on this, for it promis­es to further develop the fra­ternal spirit which is stirring­­in our breasts. What’s happening to our young farmer couple in May­­bee, Mich.? I mean Mary and Mike Batyik. They send Christmas cards and Valen­tines and that’s all. How about saving me some of them there bittersweet that grows in your lane? An enormous Home-Com­ing celebration was given by Yoland and Steve Horvath for their parents just return­ed last week from an enjoy­able Summer, spent in Hun­gary. There was gypsy music, drinks and plenty of good old Hungarian celebra­tion. Gifts brought from Hungary for relatives and friends, were much com­mented upon, as some of the things were very beautiful. Edward S. Horvath, our “Bugs” has graduated. He is now a “Walk all over the place” patient and he gets the biggest thrill out of put­ting his clothes on every morning. It just goes to show you that if you wait long enough you even get a kick of putting your clothes on. He wishes to thank Ann V. Biro of Branch 366 for the lovely letter she sent him through our Secretary, Jolán Lucas and she also says an answer will be writ­ten between now and Christ­mas in reply to Ann’s letter to Jolán. What is this any­how? Well, I s’pose you feel mighty proud of yourself for your deduction, Mr. Jos. J. Horvath (Past, Present and Futuristic)? I wonder if you’ll be working on “The Tattler” now — notice “her” column in the the last Ver­hovay Journal? Two bits she’s a “her”. Now that you know I’m a dame, (not that I tried to hide behind my skirts) I hope you feel better and will make other comments. I almost went to Cleveland with three other girls to see the Expo and planned to stop in and see you and John J., but I was told that the Expo was N.G. Is it? I’m going to try to work on our Branch 356 and Branch 36 in De­troit, to see if they can’t write as good a column as we do — if they don’t write, I’ll write about them and I don’t guarantee that they’ll like what I shall say. Don’t you thiijk the paper is get­tin’ right interestin’ since we instill a little of ourselves in­to it? Or am I too con­ceited? So long. THE FERRET--------o--------­BRANCH 395 McKeesport, pa. =Verhovay Journal= Heigh ho and cheerio all you Verhovays. Well, the old “Tat­tler” is back again. Suprised? Well, so am I. I’ve had more fun this past month, watching everybody ac­cuse everybody else of being the “Tattler.” A few have suspect­ed me, but not nearly so many as have suspected some of the others. Some insist I’m a girl, some that I’m a boy. Ah me, I’m begin­ning to wonder myself. I was glad to see, however, that no one was offended; in fact, everyone seemed quite pleased with the column. Well, I guess I’d better be getting on with some news. On August 29, the Club was well represented at the farewell party held in honor of Mike Bene­dek, who is enrolled as a freshman at Notre Dame. The party was held at St. Stephen’s Auditorium, and I must say it sure was “pack­ed.” And you should have seen some of our V.F.I.A. boys. When I stepped into the hall that eve­ning, I thought that my eyes were playing tricks upon me. “Why, those couldn’t be some of our V.F.I.A. boys,” I said to myself, “impossible.” There were about five of them dressed in flaming orange sweaters, with some wear­ing red and some green flowing ribbon ties. And, for a final touch, they had their trouser legs turned half-way up their legs. Oh, yes, and they also wore black derbies. Funny? Well, I must say they were. They certainly caused a riot. Things I noticed at the party: “Pinky” Goydan, blushingly de­nying that she knew what the “Richard Club” stands for, (a private club of the boys in the orange “get-up.”) Now, now, Pinky, you know, so ‘fess up; Frankie Toth dancing much too often with Irene Pasternak and not once with “Pinky.” What happened, Frankie, turning in the old “flame” for a new? Margy Dudash smiling down (way down) at Pfefferkorn while dancing. (Now don’t let her turn your head, Pfeffy!) Olga (minus Lutzie) having the time of her life with a non-V.F.I.A. man. How could you, Olga? Think of our poor boys. As a final thought I must say we all had a great time at the party. I’ve been told that the Journal is to be sent to Mikey at Notre Dame, so may I say, “Good luck, Mikey, we’re all root­ing for you to come through with flying colors!” You kno^w, I’ve got a Man Fri­day (or maybe it’s a girl, I won’t tell) but shall we say Man, it sounds better? At any rate, my trusted Man Friday, is always on the lookout for “dope,” and as 1 couldn’t attend the moonlight boat excursion our Club held, I’ll pass on to you highspots of the affair, as seen by my pal, Friday. It was an ideal night, with the scent of late honeysuckels in the air and a moon — oh, what a moon! — such a moon as only a harvest moon can be. Only by standing on the top deck could one really appreciate such a moon. Just close your eyes, my fraternal brothers, and try to visualize this scene — a boy and a girl, hand in hand, strolling along the moon­PAGE 11 lit deck. You cannot see much of the young man because his clothes are dark, his hair is dark, and his face is in shadow as he bends toward the girl. The girl, on the other hand, is a vision of loveliness, with her light dress and her hair, which in broad daylight would be ordinary taffy color, is now a glorious sheen of silver and platinum. We cannot hear what they are saying, but, judging by the girl’s soft laugh, the things the young man is whispering into her ear must be quite pleasant. • Ah me, why was I not there? If just having Friday give me the bare details does this to me, there’s no telling what I’d do if I’d have_ actually been there. A tip to the girls — if you want that certain someone to propose just take him on a boat ride — but, only if there’s a moon! Re­member, that’s the ticket. A few snapshots taken on the boatride: Margaret Biro with a strange young man (Friday did­n’t get the name); Ann Pasternak with that man, again — this looks bad, Ann. When’s the big day? I feel like going to a wedding this time of the year. If you won’t tell, I’ll ask Bill. Maybe he will. Elmer Halas surrounded by wo­men. Do you just take them ‘cause you had room in your car, or do you have them all on the string? Better be careful. Too many women will spoil — well, you know the old saying! Olga spending most of the evening up on the deck with neither Lutzie nor the young man of the party. How do you do it, Olga? Per­haps you two were the couple we visioned a while ago. Come to think of it, Olga’s hair is sort of taffy colored. Well , at any rate, you’re doing all right, Olga. Irene Pasternak being rushed by a mounted county policeman (he -wasn’t mounted at the time). Friday said he was a handsome brute — even got his name, Pat O'Toole. (Something tells me he’s Irish). If any of you local V.F.I.A.’s get into trouble, look up Irene, maybe she can have it fixed. Well, so much for the boat ride. Oh, gosh, I’ve forgotten the time. I’ve only fifteen minutes before the postman arrives and this must get out in the next mail. If it doesn’t, it won’t appear in this month’s Journal. But I did so want to tell you about the nov­el weekly meetings we’ve been ' having since the first of the month. We have fine programs and a lot of fun, but more about that the next time. Just one last little morsel — I hear that “Playboy Ferency” is tops with “Chick.v” Kanyusik — did you local V.F.I.A.’s notice how those two sat through the business part of the meeting last week with their hands “glued” together? They said they were planning a program. Now, now, please, we’re not blind! Oh, dear, there’s the postman! Well, bye now, I shall start soon­er next month so I can tell all.
