Indiana Ave. Let’s try to be present in a larger num­ber than has been customary in the past. Let’s start the new year with a “bang”. REMEMBER Feb­ruary 5th, 8 P. M. CORRECTIONS: Mrs. Vendel Lukacs succeeded Mrs. Steve Rogenski rather than Mrs. Steve Rudomski. One of the trustees was Mrs. Joseph Szabó rather than Mrs. Steve Szabó. I never was good at remembering names. THE WINNAH! The ladies’ and men’sf bowling teams of branch 132 met the Br. 164 ladies’ and men’s teams of Chicago. Both South Bend teams defeated the Chicago teams. Re­gardless tho’ we had a “swell” time. I don’t know what there is about those Chicagoans that makes us have such good times when we’re together. I can hardly wait until we meet again. So thanks to you fellow members, Branch 164, for your hospitality, good food; also the drinks, etc. My thanks to the three nice young men who showed me Maxwell Street. The apple turn­ed to cider by the time it reached South Bend. BRANCH 132: The members hf Branch 132 had their Annual New Years Eve Dance. They had a very large crowd. BRANCH 36: Hello 36. I have send name of President of Branch so you can make arrangements to come to South Bend for bowling matches. Nothing would please us more than to have Detroit Bowlers here again. APOLOGY: My apology to Mr. Kunstadt for calling his children children BOWLING: Here are the South Benders averages of the 164, 132 Games which took place in Chicago on December 17th.

Neiman 190 235 137 562 PERSONALS: Katherine Horvath is wearing a diamond ring since Christmas. Georgie B. is the lucky man. I’ve been telling her she had one foot or. the altar and one on a banana peel. Andy Boros was home for the Christmas Hollidays from Chicago. Seen tripping the light fan­tastic New Years Eve at the Erskine club were members Julius Papoi and also Davey Orbán. Steve Rogenski has a new nick­name — “Butch”. He is now six months old, but when he gets a little older wer’e going to adopt him as our mascot. Pete Marko of Notre Dame fame and football was seen at Reeds on New Years Eve, so were Elsie P. and Stanley K. in the com­pany of Elsie’s two brothers. Next door to Reeds at the Avalon were Kathy and Georgie B. in the company of a dozen Belgians. The New Year found many members also at the New Years Eve Dance at the Verhovay Home. Mary Boros Pilarski evidently is a good housekeeper. She boasts of a 200 lb. husband. We have a Cute member who promised to be present at all the meetings from now on. She’s about five feet three inches tall, weighs about 118 lbs., eyes of blue, is good company and an excellent dancer. Her initials are N. Y. (not New York.) What happens to members who come to the meeting once in a while and never come anymore? Do other branches have the same trouble? With the club house we have at our disposal here in South Bend, we could, with a little effort on the members’ part, have the best English speaking branch in the U. S. So please let’s try to make it such. REMEMBER THE MEETING February 8th, 3 P. M. Well, bye now, IRENE SARY, Correspondence Sec’ty.

Some of you baseball managers better start mak-Verhovay Branch 356 The weather being rather un­usual for this time of year, forced most of the club activities in­doors. Lack of snow and cold weather caused the ice-skating, tobogganing, and other outings to be postponed. There had been one tobogganing party but, due to the suddeness with which it had to be arranged, only those in closest contact with the club were able to enjoy the affair. The ping-pong table was rather busy during the past month, due to the members last-minute ef­forts to improve their playing for the approaching tournament. The members, also, had invited the Campbell A. C. and the Trinity Clubs to match their players against ours in singles and doubles competition. The teams all proved to be about equal in skill. These teams will be matched again later and we would also like to contact any table-tennis players in branches 443, 449. and 36 for possible matches. . Any member, not yet on the club teams, and wishing to play in these inter-club tournaments, please get in touch with one of the officers, or with your cor­respondent. NEWS FLASH! Watch for announcement of winners of the club table-tennis tournaments. Congratulations, Steve Toth, upon your marriage. The club as a whole wishes you, and your charming bride, every happiness and good fortune. At- this time, I wish to cast my vote to the motion made by H. V. Wade to declare the Finns the victors of the 1940 Olympics for their courageous and outstand ing battle against impossible odds.

TRICKS WITH CARDS: The Recruit Trick: Take the four knaves, and lay them on the table in a row, and state that these Jacks represent four hawbucks, who wished to be soldiers, but upon examination by the surgeon, two of them were rejected on account of physical disability, while the other two were held.
