Branch 296 ACKNOWLEDGMENT I wish to take this opportunity to thank all the members who participated in the selling of the Bowling Tournament Shares. Let me assure you that it was due to your efforts and cooperation that we were able to accomplish what we did. The results of your efforts made it possible for our branch to send the bowlers to represent us in the 7th Verhovay National Tournament in Youngstown. It is a pleasure to report that it was a very successful tournament and St means something to have had our Branch represented by such a fine group of young men. We are looking forward to bigger and better tournaments and to your continued cooperation in the near future.

Please, bring your families and friends for an enjoyable time. Beginning the first of August, our Branch will conduct classes in reading and writing the Hungarian language for children from the ages of six to sixteen. There will be no financial obligation to the parents. We feel that the parents should take advantage of this opportunity by registering the names of children at the Verhovay Home, 220 Colfax St., Springdale.

To assure the successful outcome of this venture, all members are requested to reserve their tickets atl this time. The price of the tickets had been set at $1.50 to enable every member to attend. The price of the ticket must be paid at the time reservation is made and each purchase will be duly receipted. If every member consents to attend and purchases his tickets no later than September 3, then the successful outcome of the banquet will be assured and your officers can proceed to make the plans for an impressive observance of the occasion. On the other hand, if up to September 3rd, tickets will not be sold in sufficient numbers, the plans will be cancelled and all advance purchases will be refunded.
