Val XXXIX. AUGUST 15, 1956 6 7} cßfMl «€g*> 51 NUMBER 8. ANNOUNCEMENT DAYTON, 0. NEXT TOURNAMENT CITY At this early date we are happy to announce to our readers and to our membership that the 1957 National William Penn Bowling Tournament and National Fellowship Days will be held on May 25-26, Saturday and Sunday, in Dayton, Ohio. There is no doubt that the selection of this well-known and attractive Ohio city by the National Tournament Executive Com­mittee, with the approval thereof by the Board of Directors, will please the great majority of our membership. Our tournament sites are not casually decided on. In recom­mending a tournament city, the National Tournament Executive Committee bears in mind the size of the membership in that city and area, seeks bowling alleys large enough to accomodate our many teams, considers no less than a first-rate hotel to house our guests, and so forth. The aforegoing paragraph is the telling reason why Dayton, itself the seat of Branch 249-V and Branch 139-R and the nucleus of a large area membership, has been named the 1957 Tournament City, why the National Bowling Lanes will witness our yearly sports spectacle of bowling, and why Hotel Dayton-Biltmore will be our official headquarters and the lodging place of our guests. ORGANIZE YOUR BOWLING NOW It is time again for our bowlers, too, to reorganize their teams to plan their programs for the coming season, playing and prac­ticing well ahead as one of the best means of attaining victory at the William Penn Tournament. Every year the National Tournament Executive Committee, fulfilling the decisions of the Board of Directors, looks for new improvements to make a better and bigger tournament. Every­thing within reason is done by the Committee to assure the best results and gratification to all. Indeed the responsibility of the National Tournament Ex­ecutive Committee to our bowling-loving membership is great. Nevertheless, our leagues and our teams must share in that re­sponsibility. The main share of the leagues and the teams is the EARLY initiation of their bowling programs and not to neglect REGULAR schedules so vital to the upkeep of player intere,st. At the beginning of the bowling season, often many inquiries reach us from members seeking information and help on how to get a team or a league started. This is the advice we proffer: If your branch does not have a tenpin bowling team but is desirous of forming one, the proper and best place to turn for assistance is the City Bowling Association of your community. This organization is a branch of the American Bowling Congress, its relationship to the parent body much like our own branch­­association setup. City Bowling Associations are located in almost every town where bowling alley establishments exist. Each association has a regular body of officers, as president, isecretary, treasurer, etc. These bowling leaders are charged with regulating the tenpin activities of their localities in the interest of the American Bowl­ing Congress. One of their paramount functions is to aid in the organization of teams and leagues. The secretary, especially, gives whatever assistance is necessary in team organization, or, in the case of four or more teams in a branch, the organization of a league. Also, if you have one team only and wish to play in an A.B.C. sanctioned league which will admit your team to its mem­bership, the City Bowling Association is of service. The City Bowling Association is serving to help all tenpin bowlers organize to play under the sanction of the American Bowlifng Congress. IF YOU DO NOT KNOW WHERE TO CONTACT THE OF­FICERS OF YOUR PARTICULAR CITY BOWLING ASSOCIA­TION, GO TO ANY ONE OF YOUR LOCAL BOWLING ALLEYS FOR INFORMATION, AND THE MANAGER WILL GLADLY GIVE YOU THE NAME AND ADDRESS OF THE CITY BOWL­ING ASSOCIATION OFFICER TO CONTACT. Here is an example of what can be done: In the Pittsburgh (Continued on Page 2) OFFICIAL NOTICE In accordance with instructions from the Board of Directors, I hereby notify the members of the William Penn Fraternal Association that the next regular meeting of the Board of Directors shall be held the week of September 10, 1956, beginning Monday.

COLOMAN REVESZ National President Director Lang Convalescing Director Stephen Lang, who recently underwent surgery at St. Luke’s Hospital in Bethle­hem, Pennsylvania, is now at home in Bethlehem recovering from his operation.

Now the announcement has reach­ed us that Mr. Iwanier, who since last March has been doing well for himself and for the Association, will marry Miss Anne Lieberman next December 23, 1956, the wedding to take place at 7:00 of that Sunday evening. The very old and historic Spanish- Portuguese Synagogue in New York City( built before the Mayflower) will be the setting for the religious ceremonies. The reception will be held in Cen­tral Park’s Tavern-on-the-Green at 8:00, which is near the synagogue. The affair will be managed by the Banquet Department of this beauti­fully situated and well-appointed ' restaurant-night club, while two or­chestras will play for the dancing. After a ten day honeymoon in Bermuda, District Manager Iwanier and his bride will live in Yonkers, New York, the beautiful Westchester County suburban area outside met­ropolitan New York City. Meantime, our best wishes to both. District Manager’s Wedding Date Set Emerald Wedding Forty years of wedded life were recently celebrated by Mr. and Mrs. Frank Radvany of 2235 Liberty Street, Trenton, New Jersey. At the family dinner were the couple, their four sons, Frank, Joseph, Charles, John, with their wives and the eight grandchildren. Mr. Radvany is a Director of the William Penn Fraternal Association. Our congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Radvany! SAFETY HINTS from the Red Cross
