THE FERRET SEZ

(Continued from page 6)

the significance of combining the Detroit branches into one of the two organizing districts to be set up in Detroit after the first of the year,, and he was quite pleased that 429 < leads the rest in co-operating with the Board of Directors and the Home Office in this matter. With Field Manager Henry Rettmann laid up with a rather tragic accident, Vice- President Julius Macker has been in charge of Mr. Rettmann’s duties in this respect. So remember, we are still Branch 429 of DEARBORN, with our own officers and District Delegate to the National Convention; we still have our own treasury funds and can operate as in the past — the only exception is that the business end of our branch will be handled by our new branch manager.

I, in particular, hope that all of you nice 429ers will co-operate just as readily with Mr. Lukacs as you have co-operated with me for the last fifteen years. Mr. Lukacs is more experienced, more efficient, as he should be having been a branch manager for 25 years, and will have! more time to explain any business details which you will require to know. If you have mailed your dues fo me in the past, please mail them now to Mr. Lukacs at the address I stated above. Call him at any time you need him, or if you have prospects for new members or anythingyou may need him for. Just in case, I’m standing by, and can relay all messages if you fail to get to him' in an emergency! So be good people, and co-operate with him and remember that the 429ers are, and will remain, good fraternalists.

Anyway, finally the meeting ended! You should have seen all those kids sitting there quietly with their Moms and Dads and listening as if they understood all these heavy business details. Then came Santa Claus •— yep, picture me standing o,n a chair and calling- out the kids’ names. My,

how some of them have grown since last I saw them! With their candy and fruit, they scurried out into the halls to open their little gifts and have fun until the tables were set for the Christmas Feast! Luke and Rod behind the make-shift bar were beaming just like Santa’s helpers, and the gals pitched in without a murmur to make the serving roll efficiently... See, my gang doesn’t have to be told what to do — they look, see, and DO what is required without! the formality of being appointed to various committees. No one around here objects to doing- something if they haven’t been appointed officially — they just pitch in and do their share. That is what has made this smallest of branches so active and so well-liked! H’Hmmmmm! I wonder!

To finally end the story, we stayed and stayed! We, the left-overs, finally left after 8:30 p.m. Just to let you know how we operate, that party didn't cost any member a single cent! The whole works, gifts, candy, fruit,, turkey, liquid refreshments, all came out of the branch treasury. Made quite a hole in it, but there’s enough for a few more parties. To bolster up the treasury, members have suggested that we hold a Valentine Dance in conjunction with our “parent” branch, meaning- the 36ers, and pcol our financial resources, pur workers, and split the profits. Does it 'sound enticing to you people from Branch 36? We are pretty good sports and willing workers and lots of fun to be with! Anyway, let us know if ever you are interested.

Now-, that’s all for Branch 429!

Just a little item from our “parent” branch. The 36ers will be 40 years old in 1951 and will hold a large Anniversary Celebration sometime this year. May we humbly offer our services and co-operation to make your Birthday Party one of the best and biggest in the Association ?

And with this, we bid you all farewell, and may the year 1951 bringabout those dreams and desires which are in the hearts of us all!

JoAnn Brogley Becomes Bride of Marine Cpl. Robert Maughan in Pre-Christmas Surprise Wedding

It was on June 14, 1950, shortly after the Youngstown Bowling Tournament, that Miss Dolores Brogley, daughter of the late director Frank Brogley and his wife, became the bride of Mr. John A. Kennedy, in colorful wedding ceremonies at St. Brendan Church in Youngstown, Ohio. One of the bridesmaids in the beautiful wedding procession was Miss JoAnn Brogley, the young titter of the bride. On that day, Mrs. Frank Bi-ogley, mother of the two girls, certainly did not expect to see her youngest daughter walk down the aisle in the same church, the same year, attired in a beautiful bridal gown, to exchange wedding vows with the young man her heart had chosen.

But it all came so suddenly, due to war time conditions. Shortly before Christmas Cpl. Robert ‘Bob’ Maughan came home for a week’s visit and the young couple decided then and there not to wait but to get married immediately. That was on" a Saturday and the following Thursday, on December 21, 1950, wedding bells rang at St. Brendan Church for the young Marine Cpl. Robert Maughan, son of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Maughan of 32 E. Second St., Youngstown, O., and Miss JoAnn Brogley who were united in marriage in a moving ceremony with the Rev. Thomas G. Mulhearn officiating. Mrs. Joseph Pekarcik was organist and soloist.

Given in marriage by her brother-in-law, John E. Kennedy, the lovely bride wore a gown of nylon tulle over satin. Her fingertip veil was held by a satin tiara and she carried a white orchid on a Mother-of-Pearl prayer book.

The roles were reversed in that Mrs. John E. Kennedy, the bride’s sister, was matron of honor, and, due to the rush, her only attendant. She wore an American Beauty gown of velvet and taffeta and a tiara which harmonized with the white baby mums that surrounded the American Beauty roses in her bouquet. John McAllister served his brother-in-law as best man.

The wedding breakfast was served at the Mahoning County Club for the immediate families. The reception was held from 7 to 9 p.m., at the bride’s home, after which the newlyweds left for a brief honeymoon.

Mrs. Frank Brogley had hoped to arrange for as elaborate a wedding for her youngest daughter as Dolores had. But war waits for no wedding preparations. There was no time for weeks of planning, for printing wedding invitations. The telephone was made to work overtime and a nice crowd of friends 1 and well-wishers attended to wish happiness to the young couple.

Mrs. Maughan is with the Business Office of the Ohio Bell Telephone Company and Cpl. Maughan is with the 2nd Engineer Bn. of the U. S. Marine Corps, stationed at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina.

Miss JoAnn Brogley, now Mrs. Robert F. Maughan, also participated in the memorable Youngstown Bowling Tournament. Though neither of the Brogley sisters won a prize at that Tournament, both seem to have won the most precious prize in Life’s Great Tournament: Love, mutual devotion, and in that the promise of life-long happiness. In congratulating the newlyweds, we sincerely wish that this promise may come true in their lives, not only to their own happiness but also to that of Mrs. Frank Brogley who had so nobly carried on, after her dear husband’s untimely departure, and completed the great task of guiding her lovely daughters to life’s happiest climax.__________
