Page 10 October 9, 1941 Verhovayak Lapja 58.) In connection with the request of the loyal American citizens of Hungarian de­scent, the Board brings the following re­solution: RESOLUTION At the regular semi-annual meeting of the Board of Directors of the Verhovay Fraternal Insurance Association held on September 19, 1941, considering, whereas, the Board on Sep­tember 16, 1941, in their telegram sent to the President of the United States, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, expressed that they approve in every respect the brilliant activities of the head of the democracy expended in behalf of securing the liberty of peoples and the laying of the foundations of the coming peace, in­corporated in the historical EIGHT POINT DECLARATION, and align themselves behind his efforts in everything, wherefore on this day the following RESOLUTION is accepted, by them: 1.) Again the Board establishes that it will follow with the complete unselfishness of faithful Americ'an citizens the guidance of President Roosevelt, with faith in their Country and the steadfast faith and hope based on the dauntlessness of democracy, and will support his noble work. 2) According to the most authentic in­formation, the freedom-loving peoples of Hun­gary, falling into tragic circumstances, have lost their independence and freedom of action and are not now in the position to direct their own fate because Hitlerism has deprived them of all their rights of self-government. wherefore, the Verhovay Fraternal In­surance Association will do everything possible in behalf of attaining the peoples’ economic, military and political rights, which the rights of an American citizen and loyalty to the land of one’s birth permit. 3.) Finally, the Board discloses also that it will support with all its strength the pre­sent movement for freedom until it attains it and until it can insure freedom and in­dependence to the Hungarian people. It is the wish of the Board of Directors of the Verhovay Fraternal Insurance Associa­tion that this unselfish and noble moral sup­port fall into the “pan” with its whole weight, and the victory of the great democratic na­tions bring with them the victory of “Hun­garian Justice” also! 59. ) In the case of the apeal of Branch 503 of Chicago, the Board orders that the Home Office secure the data from official sources and to take action in accordance with these. 60. ) The Board is occupied with the case of the Death Benefits of Joseph Lesko, de­ceased, member of our Branch 430, since the payment of the Death Benefits were refused by the Home Office, both the Beneficiary and the Secretary of the Branch turned to the Board with an appeal against said action. After hearing the opinion of the Chief Counsel, the Board orders the paying of th«­­Death Benefits. 61. ) The appeal of Branch 66 of New Castle, Pennsylvania, whereby it asks the Board to issue the financial help for the Summer School asked for by them late is ordered complied with by the Board, with the ad­monition that in the future the branch live up to the conditions established by the Board. 62. ) The Board discusses the appeal of Nicholas Kadar, member of Branch 14, which the Board can not comply with. 63. ) The Board is occupied with the letter of Louis Tarczay, editor-owner of the newspaper “Újság,” and the accusations contained there­in, and since these do not agree with the true status of the matter, orders the removal of the case from the order of the day. 64. ) In connection with the request of Branch 52, relative to dividends, the Board announces that it can not comply with the request. 65. ) The Board is occupied with the com­plaint of Alexander Geczy, member of Branch 374, and after examining the documents re­lative to the case, it establishes that it can not find any indictment in same which would warrant taking action against the manager of the branch. 66. ) The Board reads the letter of mem­ber Emery Szucs, Secretary of Branch 25, and acknowledges its contents. 67. ) The offer of the Central Laboratories is not accepted by the Board. 68. ) The Board brings the resolution at­tached to the Minutes, which is necessary in order to enable the newly elected Supreme Treasurer, John Szalanczy, to have access to the assets in the safe deposit boxes at the banks comprising the wealth of the Association, The program of the Board meeting being exhausted, Supreme President Darago thanks the Board for its unselfish attention and asks the Board to continue its faithful Verhovay work, calling their attention to its increased obligations demanded by the historically im­portant times, and closes the meeting at 7:30 P.

Pennsylvania The members of Branch 395 were called to a special meeting on Tuesday, Sep­tember 30th, in order to line up the bowlers for our league, and other important events which will materialize in the very near future. To the post cards which were sent to all the members in­quiring whether they would bowl, President Sabo receiv­ed a warm response; even a couple hideaway members, such as John Such and Bob Varga, who up until now have been only names on our files, turned up (excuse me Mr. Varga, you did go to Detroit with us, didn’t you?) The meeting started out in the usual manner, one that would make an up­holder of parliamentary law click his tongue and rue­fully wag his head, but one that always gets results when something’s brewing, and we have a Halloween party coming up. Ethel Ha­las suggested that we all dress as children, probably having in mind Albert Jo­liik, who has started a collec­tion of adopted daughters, from sixteen to thirty. The suggestion did not become official. However, you may dress as you like so long as you leave your dignity at home. The advantages of an “old clothes party” were pointed out but rejected on the grounds that non-mem­bers would make the mistake of thinking that we were plugging “old clothes for defense” or other some such movement. Entertainment will take various forms, among which the committee will present several contests which"! can not here dwell upon since they made me promise to keep it dark, but anyone can participate and there will be valuable prizes. Refreshments will be ap­propriate to the occasion, although I must with great­est reluctance admit that Julius Lenart suggested a certain liquid prepared with malt which met with the approval of male members attending. The Halloween party will "be held on Octo­ber 14th, to which the Branch 395 extends its most cordial invitation to you and your friends for a thoroughly en­joyable evening (or your money back). * * * Our bowling night on Wednesday, October 1st, can be easily considered a major success. There were four teams organized, and very ably captained by Marie Toth (nee Sand), Ann (Southpaw) Bogi, Julius Lenart and Albert Jozik. The really top-notch bowlers such as the Normans, Ann Bogi, and President Sabo’s brother Al, established the proper altitude for the score, but the beginners, as guest Helen Klein can testify, had just as much fun. Ethel Halas has a terrific slow ball that’s deadly; you think that it’s going to die on the way down, but the way it lays those pins low is cer­tainly surprising. In spite of all Marie’s admonitions, Helen Ganyu kept curving them in the gutter, but she walked off with a couple of strikes. Like Margaret Popach and Mary Nagy, she’s a greenhorn at bowl­ing, and she started off by picking up two balls at one time, Helen (Pinky) Goydan is one of the better bowlers, and maybe it’s because she takes along her own cheer­ing section, namely Louise (Jr. Pinky) Goydan. I like the way Steve Pollack and Bob Varga mow them down and casually saunter away, and how President Sabo takes his stance to shoot a bulls-eye. Mrs. Sabo was there, and she helped to make the score what it was. They told me I was the pin­­boys’ delight. For final re­sults, see the sporting page where the scores will be printed and make a mental note to attend Wednesdays, Palm Bowling Alleys, soon after nine. Fraternally, HELEN STIPKOVITS Publicity Agent.--------------O-------------­LIVE IT DOWN Has your life been bitter sorrow? Live it down. Think about a bright tomorrow, Live it down. You will find it never pays Just to sit wet-eyed and gaze On the grave of vanished days; Live it down. Is disgrace your galling burden? Live it down. You can win a brave heart's guerdon; Live it down. Make your life so free from blame That the lustre of your fame Shall hide all the olden shame; Live it down. Has your heart a secret trouble’’ Live it down. Useless griefs will make it double, Live it down. Do not water it with tears— Do not feed it with your fears— Do not nurse it through the years— Live it down. Have you made some awful error? Live it down. Do not hide your face in terror; Live it down. Look the world square in th* eyes; Go ahead as one who tries To be honored ere he dies; Live it down.
