35th Anniversary Celebration Father Paul Bolvary, Pastor of St. Ann's Hungarian Church in Hazelwood, Pa., celebrated the 35th anniversary of his ordination on Sunday, October 24, 1982 at the Duquesne Golf Club. Father Paul was born in Kalocsa, Hungary on April 1 3, 1 924. He completed his education under the Jesuit Fathers; was a seminarian in Pecs and finally ordained on August 10, 1 947 in Hungary. Father Paul's first Mass was in Kalocsa, Jesuit Church. His 25th anniversary Mass was celebrated in the Pauline Fathers Chapel in Rome and Father Paul arrived in the United States as a permanent immigrant in December 1972. After serving in Doylestown and Kittanning, Pa., Father Paul became a resident of St. Ann's in August 1973 during which time he attended the University of Pittsburgh. He finally became appointed Assistant at St. Ann's in 1975 and Pastor in 1976, where he still faithfully serves. Many of Father Paul's friends and members of his Parish attended his anniversary celebration. Albert Stelkovics, former National Secretary-Treasurer of the William Penn Association, did a fine job of being Toastmaster of this event. We wish Father Paul the best of health and happiness doing what he likes best, serving his fellowman. Branch 51 Passaic, N.J.

It was an occasion we all looked forward to, meeting and greeting old friends and enjoying an evening in a delightful atmosphere. We are sorry to inform our members and friends, that after sponsoring these affairs since 1958—due to many factors beyond our control, a memorable event has come to an end. We wish to thank everyone for their wonderful support over the years in making these affairs successful. It will leave a void in our lives, but we’ll have the pleasant memories to cherish. We are asking our members to take a more active role, to attend our meetings and create new interest to benefit our organization.
