PAGE 2 August 15, 1956 William Penn ANNOUNCEMENT! DAYTON, 0. NEXT TOURNAMENT CITY (Continued from Page 1) district, any branch wishing to get together a team or a league need only to contact R. R. Dillinger, 1729 Chartiers Avenue, McKees Rocks, Pennsylvania. Mr. Dillinger, who is our own Tournament Supervisor, is also (secretary of the City Bowling Association of Pittsburgh. Years ago, when we inaugurated our tournaments, it was the aforesaid organization, represented in Mr. Dillinger, which furnished us with the technical advice essential to the organization and promotion of our bowling tournaments, and every year we draw upon it»s expert knowhow of the bowling sport. The paragraphs preceding deal with American Bowling Congress sanction for male bowlers. The same information is entirely applicable as to female bowlers except that their sanction comes from the Women’s International Bowling Congress. The Women’s International Bowling Congress, abbreviated W.I.B.C., maintains City Bowling Associations for women bowlers throughout the country, just as the A.B.C. does for men bowlers. It is our sincere and hopeful advice that you contact the officials of the City Bowling Associations for their service. Their special knowledge and willing cooperation will start you on a successful bowling program that carries with it fun and fellowship, * * * We know that the Bowling Tournament-Fellowship Days yearly Association spectacular was created by the former Verhovay Fraternal Insurance Association, and, of course, the participating teams have been Verhovay branch teams. However, since the merger of the Verhovay Fraternal Insurance Association and the Rákóczi Aid Association in 1955, there have been added many Rákóczi-designated branches to the resultant new William Penn Fraternal Association. It is our ardent desire that as many as possible R-numbered branches join their sister V-numbered branches in sending teams to the 1957 William Penn Bowling Tournament. 50th ANNIVERSARY FOR THE COLOMAN KOLOZSVÁRY’S Many Hungarians in The United States have distinguished themselves among their own kind because of long years of activity in Hungarian matters. In this category falls the well-known name of Coloman Kolozsvary, a fine looking old gentleman who has lived his long life looking out for the interests of the Hungarians in America, This road of endeavor, he has shared with his most faithful companion, his beloved wife. Together they have made a husbandwife team known and admired by many informed Hungarians of long residence in this country. The Hungarians of Cleveland, Ohio, where Mr. and Mrs, Kolozsvary live, are more nearly cognizant of all the things that the Kolozsvary’s have done and are doing for the welfare, cultural and social, of the American Magyar people. There is hardly a Cleveland Hungarian doing that does not in some way owe its success partially to the enthusiastic work of Mr. and Mrs. Kolozsvary. We William Penn members, particularly the Verhovay segment, know or should know that Coloman Kolozsvary played a salient part in the growth of the former Verhovay Fraternal Insurance Association. His Verhovay record is one of fine leader - dership and sincere efforts, reaching the heights of Supreme President and Director in that Association-Many more have been the Hungarian accomplishments of Coloman Kolozsvary — and Mrs. Kolozsvary. Enough, however, has been said here to give honor to whom honor is due. Recently, on June 16, 1956, Saturday evening, hundreds of friends, well-wishers, William Penn associates, and others, gathered at St. Stephen’s hall in Cleveland, Ohio to fete Mr. and and Mrs. Coloman Kolozsvary on their 50th wedding, an affair which deeply moved the honored guests. Through the medium of our official organ, we take this opportunity to congratulate Mr. and Mrs. Coloman Kolozsvary on their 50th anniversary and to wish them more years of happy wedded life-RADIANT BRIDE Margaret Kern became the bride of Joseph Alakszay June 23, 1956 at the Trinity Evangelical and Reformed Church, Akron, Ohio. The new Mrs. Alakszay is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Kern of Akron and since childhood has been a member of Branch 91-V, Akron, Ohio. Her husband is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Alakszay, former Akron residents now living in Fontana, California. Many beautiful gifts were given to the young couple. The local Hungarian press showered the bride with many complimentary expressions in recognition of her active participation in Hungarian affairs. As a native bom American of Magyar heritage, she has done much for the publicization of Hungarians. The newlyweds left by automobile for California and will temporarily live in South Gate. Mr. Alakszay will graduate this fall from the Los Angeles College of Mortuary Science. Mrs. Alakszay is a high school teacher and an accomplished pianist. Branch Manager in Letter Backs American Museum of Immigration Some months ago and again in June we wrote about the proposed American Museum of Immigration, which is a bid to establish an Immigrants’ Museum at the base of the Statue of Liberty in New York City. When completed the museum will house a permanent record of those immigrants who have contributed materially to the welfare of their new national abode, will have a Memorial Hall, a Display Room, and a large auditorium available without charge to the various nationality groups. The movement is an idealistic venture that should be nurtured to maturity. Since the immigrant Magyars have produced names worthy of perpetuation and honor in this country, certainly all Hungarians in America ought to interest themselves in what will bring individual honor to their kind. Hungarian societies as well as individuals can do much toward assuring the realization of the American Museum of Immigration. ■ Sending in a $25.00 contribution toward this end from his branch, John Suto, manager of Branch 41-R Carteret, New Jersey, wrote that the American Museum of Immigration is so worthy an endeavor as to need no pro and con examination. Branch Manager Suto went on to urge all his fellow branch managers throughout the William Penn Fraternal Association to bring up at their branch meetings the cause of the American Museum of Immigration and to ask for liberal donations. In addition to the $25.00 contribution of Branch 41-R, other branches which have made donations toward the American Museum of Immigration are 19-R, sending $25.00 and 156-R, contributing $10.00, both branches located in New Brunswick, New Jersey. Contributions are to be sent to the NATIONAL COMMITTEE OF THE AMERICAN MUSEUM OF IMMIGRATION, 270 PARK AVENUE, NEW YORK 17, NEW YORK.
