Looking for a different treat to give your Valentine? Forget the box of chocolates and present your loved one with a box full of homemade vanilliás perec (vanilla pretzels). That’s right—vanilla. There’s no law that says you must give only chocolate treats on St. Valentine’s Day. Besides, what says “I love you” better than a gift you made yourself? Trust me, your sweet thing will love these sweet things.

For those wishing to travel to Hungary but can not go during June or September, Fugazy Travel is also booking a special “Culture and History Tour of Hungary” in August.

This 12-day tour will depart on Aug. 9 and will include visits to 15 cities in Hungary. The timing of the tour will ensure that guests are in Hungary for an excellent view of the final total solar eclipse of the century, scheduled for Aug. 11 at 10:50 a.m. Hungarian time.

Guests will also be in Hungary to participate in the annual celebration of St. Stephen’s Day Aug. 20. The tour will be in Budapest at that time, so guests will have the opportunity to see the gigantic fireworks display.

The Board of Directors has established the following rules governing eligibility for scholarship recipients:

a) The student applying for a scholarship grant must be a Life Benefit Member of the William Penn Association for three (3) years as of January 1 of the year for which application is made. A Life Benefit Member is one who is insured for Life or Endowment benefits.

b) On both renewal and new applications, a parent or grandparent of the applicant must be a Life Benefit Member of the William Penn Association, or the student must be a child or grandchild of a deceased member.

c) Scholarship grants are awarded to full-time undergraduate students only if they have been accepted by or are currently attending an accredited college, university or school of nursing.

d) First-time applicants must submit, along with their application, a transcript of their high school scholastic record, and furnish a copy of their latest SAT/ACT scores. Proof of Enrollment for the upcoming school year must be submitted prior to the issue of the grant.

e) Grants are awarded for a two- or four-year period. To be considered for scholarship grants in ensuing years, the student must be an active life benefit member. The student must notify the President of the Scholarship Foundation, by letter, postmarked no later than May 14, 1999, that he or she wishes to continue receiving the scholarship grant.

f) Renewal applicants must submit, with their letter requesting renewal, Proof of Enrollment for the new term and a transcript of their scholastic record from the latest term. All renewal applicants must have maintained a minimum Grade Point Average of 2.0 on a 4.0 scale. The letter requesting renewal must be postmarked no later than May 14,1999, even if Proof of Enrollment and transcript are not available by that date. Such documents must be submitted as soon as possible.

g) Since the awarding of scholarship grants is based in part on financial need of the applicant’s family, the parents of the applicant must file a Confidential Financial Statement on a form provided by the Scholarship Foundation and be willing to provide any and all other information which may be required.

h) Applications for scholarship grants must be made on forms furnished by the Scholarship Foundation. All necessary forms may be obtained by writing to:

President

William Penn Fraternal Association Scholarship Foundation, Inc.

709 Brighton Road, Pittsburgh, PA 15233

i) All requests for an application and renewal letters must be submitted and signed by the student requesting the grant and mailed to the attention of the President. Letters submitted by a parent or guardian will not be considered.

j) We suggest that the student’s application or renewal letter be sent to the President of the Scholarship Foundation via Certified Mail so that there is no question as to the mailing date or receipt of same at the Home Office.

k) Scholarship grants will be awarded by the Executive Committee of the William Penn Fraternal Association Scholarship Foundation, Inc., once each year. Grants will be paid directly to the applicant provided he or she is a member in good standing on the date the checks are issued and all of the eligibility requirements stated herein have been met.

l) An acknowledgement of the grant should be made by the recipient when received. If for any reason the recipient does not attend college after awarding of the grant, the grant must be returned to the President in its entirety.

m) All applications and renewal letters must be postmarked no later than Friday, May 14,1999. Any applications or renewal letters postmarked after that date will not be considered.
