Branch President Joseph Churilla opened the program, welcoming the representatives of the various organizations attending the event. The national anthem was sung by the audience and Mr. Thomas A. Kocsis was introduced as the Master of Ceremonies. Nicholas Palla, Manager of Branch 130, reviewed the history of Branch 130, which was attentively heard and warmly applauded by the audience who^vere well aware of the decisive role played by Mr. Palla in the excellent progress and outstanding fraternal record of this branch. Yean Hadarich, a member of the Junior group, made a very nice welcome speech and presented National President John Bencze with a beautiful bouquet of flowers. Mr. Bencze expressed his appreciation of the warm reception accorded to him and, then, outlined the contributions of the Verhovay to the fraternal, patriotic, social and economic life of Americans of Hungarian descent. Emphasizing that Branch 130 always has assumed an important share in the pursuit of Verhovay’s fraternal aims, he paid tribute to the officers and members of this branch whose brotherly understanding and cooperative attitude has many a time served inspiring examples of the devotion of immigrant Hungarians to the ideals of American fraternalism. He congratulated the officers of the branch upon the confidence which has been freely accorded to them by both the older and younger membership and commended Mr. Palla whose untiring efforts had increased the membership of the branch from 150 at the time he first assumed the management to nearly 500 at the present time. Paying tribute to Mrs. Palla for her share in the successful management of this growing Branch, Mr. Bencze presented her with a gift from the Home Office which she ac-Joumal July 20, 1949 Some $1200 Changed Hands Tournament Administrators Pay For Bowling Alleys William Coverly, Bowling Manager of the Recreation Building Co., is seen here receiving a check in payment of the costs of bowling for two days on the 44 lanes of the 6th and 7th floor, from National Auditor John Sabo. Assistant Bowling Manager Alex. Charbonneau is happily witnessing the scene, while tournament co-administrator Henry Rettmann, editor, is sadly viewing the check which deflated the administrators’ checkbook by some Twelve Hundred Dollars. On the table, in front of Mr. Coverly, lies a statement showing exactly how many lines were bowled, and partly underneath is a copy of the Tournament Album, the first inside cover page of which was purchased by Recreation. After kindly relieving the tournament administrators of the money, the management felt more like passing out bouquets. Said Mr. Coverly: “This was one of the nicest tournaments we ever had at Recreation.” Mr. Charbonneau seconded: “It certainly was.” Well, gentlemen, it was a pleasure to work with you and we thank you for your assistance in making this tournament a success. Aiientown Collie Awarded Medal For Twice Saving Master’s Life — “Queenie”, Bobby Kenneth’s Best Friend, Honored At Banquet By Humane Society. — Quaenie, the dog that saved the life of three-year-old Bobby Kenneth, a member of Branch 90, Allentown, Pa., twice in a year’s time, was the recipient of a medal from the American Humane Association at the recent annual dinner of the Lehigh County Humane Society in the social rooms of St. John’s Reformed church. Bobby and Queenie both were present for the award. Queenie, a 20 month old collie, has previously received the Pama Award from New York, which is an oil painting of the dog and an inscription telling of her heroic deeds. The American Humane Association award is a beautiful medal. The dog’s first life saving performance came about 11 months ago. Queenie pulled Bobby from his tricycle as it headed into the path of a truck. The most recent rescue occurred when Bobby fell into a 6 foot hole filled with water. Queenie grabbed the boy by his wrist and held him at the edge of the water until his parents arrived. “Nobody came to help me but Queenie,” Bobby told his rescuers when they finally arrived. At the annual dinner meeting of the local society, Mme. Induk Pahk, one of Korea’s leaders in education, social and religious work, was the principal speaker. Indeed, Queenie proved herself Bobby’s best friend. We congratulate the parents of Bobby Kenneth upon having provided such an excellent protector for their child who would have lost his life, had his faithful pal not saved him from mortal danger. cepted with sincere expressions of , appreciation.
