Fage 2 Pre-Election News at ranch 366 Cleveland, Ohio November 27, 1941 Uraneli 395 — McKeesporl. Pa, Greetings and salutations to our Verhovay readers, and especially to our Branch 366 members. Lest they forget, on Fri­day, December 5, 1941, will be held a meeting which is very important to all the members of Branch 366, be­cause it will be election day at the lodge, and new of­ficers will be selected who will be faithful, conscien­tious, honest and show leadership for the coming year. Only members of good standing and solid character —their previous record must be good—are eligible to run for office. We call your attention to the fact that the FIRST Friday of EVERY month is our regular meeting night, at Verhovay Hall No. 2, 8637 Buckeye Road, beginning at 8:30 P. M. In addition we have a bowling meeting every Tuesday, but this may be changed in the near fu­ture. Whenever you pay your dues please print your name, put your address on the back so we can check, date it, put in the number of months you are paying, then the amount that goes to the Home Office, and five cents for each month for the branch, and finally add and write down the total. Do this on all three sheets. Those of you who have been in the lodge prior to February 1, 1938 have di­vidends coming, so kindly come to the next regular meeting to collect. We will not deliver any dividends, for it causes inconvenience and does not pay. Your co­operation will be appre­ciated. We want every Branch 366 member to feel that he or she is welcome at the meetings. I know our mem­bers aren’t very easily fright­ened. Come and feel at home. With more at the meetings we shall be able to hold little affairs after business is finished. Let’s work this out! We particu­larly ask our married mem­bers to assist, as the un­attached, like myself, are somewhat unstable and un­reliable. One of these days the anchors will be weighed for us, too. At our last meeting a Christmas party was de­cided upon, the date to be fixed at the December meet­ing. Our girls will handle every detail this time—We hope. Any member wishing to come please communicate with Miss Frances Schwartz, 10505 Mt. Auburn, oi, pre ferably, attend the next meeting. We will have to have the names so that the committee in charge can arrange everything intelli­gently and, in connection with the party, there will be drawing of names so that a ten cent gift can be bought. These are the only provisions. There will be NO charge. Costly gifts will not be tolerated at the party, nor gifts that may embar­rass, cause hurt feelings, etc. We know from past ex­perience how common some people can be, and we are protecting those who want to have a good time; be­sides, we are always con­scious of Verhovay Frater­­nalism, which can not be nurtured by negative ac­tions of any sort. Miss Goldie Zsednay will inspect all prizes, make a record to whom they will be given, and only those that she okays will be presented by our “Santa Claus,” Louis Vassy, our alert district or­ganizer. Your cooperation again requested. A distinguished visitor ar­rived in our midst Sunday, November 9th, Frank Brog­­ley, Director from Youngs­town, Ohio. We met with Di­rector Brogley at the Ver­hovay Hall, and among those present were Ed Torda, Jo­seph Nagy, Jacob Torda, and of course Director Brogley and yours truly. We discussed the National Ver­hovay Bowling Coftgress. Director Brogley flattered us by saying that we gave him several ideas. But we didn’t forget to challenge Youngstown, through the Director, for a bowling match which was accepted with eagerness by Director Brogley in behalf of his branch. Sunday, November 30th, will be the grand open­ing of the New Alleys, and the match was made for that afternoon. Details will be worked out between Di­rector Brogley and Ed Torda. We also received a chal­lenge from Niles, Ohio. But Che boys are a little skep­tical because a match was made last year and Niles called it off. Our bowling teams are finally taking shape, and in a couple of weeks will be in mid-season form, and our women are showing good form. Our membership is grow­ing by leaps and bounds. We could possibly chatter here for several hours and write it all down, but they say short and sweet and to the Verhovayak Labia YOUTH AT BRANCH 503 Little Mary Joan Kozarits, age 2, will be worth at least $1000 twenty years from now, at the ripe young age of 22, for her farseeing and farsighted parents recently took out a Twenty Year En­dowment Certificate for the youngster with Branch 503, Chicago, Illinois, mindful of her future education and other advantages. In addi­tion, they also have ordinary insurance for Mary Joan. Mary Joan’s father hails from Csajta, Vas County, Hungary, and the mother is a native of Chicago. Wise and prudent parents will follow suit by insuring their children in VERHO­VAY.--------------O-------------­BRANCH 366 NOTICE Cleveland, Ohio Election of officers will be held on Friday, December 5, 1941. Any member with dues paid up to date and having a good record is entitled to run for office. The members are asked to be present at the election and to cooperate with the branch and with the of­ficers. Fraternally. JOSEPH J. HORVATH Secretary-Treasurer. point makes the best stories. Lest I forget: My pal, Frank Bolesic, Camp Shelby, Mississippi: I received your post card and will write— soon. To The Ferret: We thank you for your thoughtfulness and charity in sending us a few of the pictures that were taken at the Detroit Verho­vay Day. Memories, sweet memories! In conclusion: In the name of Branch 366 and in my name I want to wish the members a MERRY CHRIST­MAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR. So until 1942, Fraternally, Joseph J. Horvath Secretary-Treasurer. For the' general informa­tion of the public, there are two classes of people, despite belief of the absence of classes in The United States, and they are people who are Verhovays and people who are not. Then to go further, there are two classes of Verhovayans— those who bowl and those who do not. It has been called to my attention that the reason why some Of our best members do not bowl is that they are totally un­familiar with the rudiments of this favorite winter in­door sport; so, now that I finally bowled 115 (Mr. Jo­­zik, please note), I shall en­deavor to point out some helpful hints to hopefuls. First, it is best to select a ball, one that is most be­coming to the dress you are wearing (they come in all shades, with the cutest swirls and circles on them), and advance boldly to the foul line. Then stop and take a good look at the pins and try to remember their positions in your mind’s eye; grip your ball firmly, swinging it back as far as it will go, and then bring it abruptly forward and throw the ball before you, keeping your eye on it all the time. There is a slight possibility that it will follow the red line down to the pin boys, but they won’t mind at all, and anyway you get another chance. This time, after limbering up a little, you make your second attempt, and if any of the pins fall down, it’s purely coincidental. But don’t be discouraged; one person just has to have low score on every team, that’s one of the nice things about the game. Second, aside from youi bowling technique itself, there are various ways you can improve your game. Libby Norman finds that wearing a little gadget that’s a miniature score board with two bowling pins attached on her dress is a great help. Grace Koos thinks that her waist-length necklace is in­dispensable and here’s an­other tip from Grace: if you sit down on the fowl line after throwing your ball, you invariably make a strike or at least pull in a spare. Steve Poliak recommends Coca Cola between games. I’m sure this will warm the cockles of Alex Goydan’s heart, that is, if he would be around lately, to have his heart’s cockles warmed. Lastly, if you have fol­lowed any or all of these excellent suggestions and you still can’t bowl, then you still have a chance in the cheering section if you haven’t a case of laryngitis or some similar affliction. Mr. Steve Dobos and Mr. Joseph George usually drop in for a spot of cheering after work when they don’t bowl, and their presence is very gratifying to the mo­rale of their respective teams. Incidentally, I still haven’t been able to figure out how I made that 115. It is, and probably will re­main one of the mysteries of life. ¥ * * ! The members of Branch 395 want me to say hello to two going-to-be new members: S. D. (Special Delivery) Jones—how he can deliver that ball (he would be on the other team); and Stephan Wage—he’s good too. ; In a couple weeks time, you will be reading about one of Branch 395’s biggest events. I w'on’t give you any of the details, but count on it sometime in the second or third week of January. This can’t miss, because it’s just what you’ve been wait­ing for, so keep posted on your branch new’s. On the second Tuesday of December will be a very im­portant meeting, same time, same place, and probably same people, but show up because big things are going to bo done, and you may be sorry to have missed them.
