February 1991, William Penn Life, Page 3 Countdown to bowling tournament begins PITTSBURGH — The 48th An­nual National Bowling Tourna­ment and Scholarship Days—and your chance to win $ 10,000—are only three months away. Three months may seem like a long time, but as the old saying goes, time flies. If your branch has yet to put together a team, then start doing so now. You won’t want to miss out on all the fun and excitement of this year’s tournament. The tournament will be held May 24 to 26 in Pittsburgh, the home of our Home Office. Bowl­ers and other tournament guests will be staying at the Hyatt Regen­cy Pittsburgh, located in Chatham Center in the uptown section of the city. All bowling events will once again take place at Princess Lanes, one of the area’s finest bowling facilities and site of the last two national tournaments. Much of the bowlers’ and fans’ attention will be focused on the team event during which all eli­gible contestants will have the chance to win $ 10,000. The prize will be awarded to the member who bowls a perfect 300 game during this event. To be eligible to win this prize, a bowler must be a life-benefit member of the William Penn Association by April 1, 1991, with at least one year’s premium paid. If two or more eligible bowlers each roll a 300 during the team event, then the $10,000 Hungarian Language Camp set for August Continued from Page 1 Those whose reservations are re­ceived after the cut-off point will have the option of being placed on a waiting list in the order in which their reservations were received. A limited number of double rooms will be available on a first­­come/first-served basis. All other students will be housed in dormi­tory style accommodations. Last year’s language camp filled quickly and organizers are expect­ing a similar response this year. All life-benefit members age 18 or older interested in attending this special camp should make their reservations as soon as possible.
