Jefferson Avenue. The program was sponsored by Branch 36, the largest branch of the Verhovay Fraternal Insurance Association. As usual with these Children’s Day celebrations in the Motor City, it was highly successful and outstanding in the performance of talented kiddies at their peak. President Joseph Heck opened the eeremonies,i speaking in both English and Hungarian, and warmly welcomed the large gathering of members, their guests and the many children. To the piano accompaniment of Dorothy Vincent, the entire assemblage sang “God Bless America,” after which the master of ceremonies, Vice-President and member of the Board of Directors Julius Macker, introduced the following star-studded presentation : 1. Steve Danko (grandson of Gaspar Papp, Auditing Committee chairman, played “A kanyargó-tisza partján” on his violin, followed by an American selection. 2. Patricia Anne Bely — A Ballet Dance. 3. Ida Madarasz — Piano solo, “Havana Nights.” 4. Mary Gebnar — Magyar Dance, accompanied by her father on his violin. 5. Shirley Putz — Pantomine, “His Rocking Horse Ran Away.” 6. Dorothy Vincent — Monti- Csárdás. 7. District Manager Stephen Lukacs — A short talk on the various Verhovay certificates, including hospitalization and| income protection coverages. 8. Darling Danko (granddaughter of Gaspar Papp) — Songs, “Kis leány vigyázz” and “Megérett a fekete szőlő.” 9 Choo-Chi-Orban—-Magyar Csárdás and Magyar H illet. Datices, (This young lady is the six year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Orbán, has a highly successful career to look forward to in the near future.) 10. Brenda Madarasz—American Dance. 11. Dorothy Putz — Pantomine, “Molasses and Molasses.” (Dorothy and her sister Shirley, daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Putz, also look for a successful career in the future.) 12. Joseph Marczis—Extending his thanks to the gathered assemblage, Mr. Marczis, elected as president of the committee heading the Michigan Verhovay Day Picnic on Sunday, June 20, 1954, at Handler’s Park in Trenton, Michigan, cordially extended an invitation to everyone present to attend this outstanding event this summer. 13. Magyar Himnusz (Hungarian National Anthem.) 14 Refreshments served to the children and guests. The Children’s Day program was very successful and will continue to be an annual event in the Motor City. Thanks are hereby given to all those parents whose children performed on the program, and also to the many families who came to enjoy a typical Verhovay fraternal event. Look forward to more such good times in the future. ❖ ❖ * As for the dinner-dance details, names of committees and other woi'kers were in the “Detroiti Újság,” will also be listed in the Hungarian issue of the “Verhovayak Lapja.” Look for them there. However, the entire affair can be summed up as one of the most successful, both socially and financially, in the history of Branch 36, and since this is only the beginning of the revival of social, fraternal and sports activities in the Motor City, the prospects for the future look highly fascinating. Andy Konkoly, one of our brighter bowlers, brought along a contingent of members from the Knights of Columbus in Dearborn, of which Andy is a member himself, and apparently they all had a very good time. Since February 27th was the last night of Brotherhood Week, it was fitting to have these two fraternal groups get together for a sociable evening. Let’s hope that the spirit of that night will continue throughout the year . . . Brotherhood Week should stretch out to 365 days a year, EVERY YEAR, always, and if this were possible, great gains could be made to secure man’s peace of mind. That week I noted a merchant in Detroit had an appealing message which went, “A bouquet for Brotherhood. People are like flowers. God grows all kinds and colors. Would you want it any other way?” So on to our next event . . . the 11th Annual National Verhovay Bowling Tournament and 1954 National Verhovay Fellowship Days in May. See you then!
