Page 12 May 8, 1941 V erhovayalc Lapja Echoes from Lorain Frank (Hank) Andorka, Jr., member of Branch 17 and son of Frank Andorka owner of the well-known Andorka Bowling Alleys on Vine Avenue, has gained a nationwide reputation for himself in the past few weeks. From time to time Hank’s name appeared in the lime­light in bowling circles, and he added to his long list of victories on April 17th when re really showed what he had. “Hankus Pankus”, mem­ber of the Pabst Beer team, made 31 strikes out of a possible 36, the second high­est score in the nation for the 1940—41 season. Shortly after “Hank” bowled his noteworthy games, sports radio announ­cers broadcast his high score throughout the nation. His picture and a good write-up also appeared in some of the leading newspapers of the country. Branch 372 wishes to con­gratulate Frank on his out­standing performance. * v- * Ernest Chonka, son of Steve Chonka, proprietor of the Green Woods Inn night club and a prominent figure in Hungarian circles here, has’ been farmed out to Butler, Pennsylvania by the New York Yankees’ ball club Young Chonka looks very promising and we believe he is destined toward a good future. We’re all with you, Ernest old boy! We are urging all mem­bers of Branch 17 to attend the big banquet at the new Hungarian Reformed Hall at 31st Street and Globe Ave, May 18th. We understand that the tickets are selling rapidly and a large crowd is expected. A flag dedication will also be held at this af­fair. Come one, come all. ¥ V- * We understand that the stork is going to leave a valuable bundle at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Bors very shortly. Congratu­lations, “Chuckie,” we’ll be around for cigars. * * * The baseball team, under the management of Joe Fiiak, is holding practices Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. The team is in for stiff competition this year and we’re all hoping that they’ll come through on top. Their schedule opened May 4th. * * * Miss Helen Acs, prominent and popular Hungarian at­torney, is going to be mar­ried. Her engagement was announced last Sunday. Her — Branch 372 husband to be, John Jay Oleair, formerly an engineer at the National Tube Com­pany, is now a lieutenant at Ft. Benjamin, Harrison, In­diana. Their marriage will take place at high noon with solemn ceremonies, May 10th, at the St. Peter and Paul Cathedral, Indiana­polis, Indiana. Monsignor Raymond C. Noll and Rev. F. A.
