August 21, 1963 William Penn PAGE 3 September 8, at Thornton Sweet Woods North. Thi s branch will hold several evening socials during the fall season. Look for further announcements in this paper. Fraternally, BETTY AKAI Secretary IO DETROIT, Michigan Because of the nearness of the deadline, of the WILLIAM PENN, a complete report of the Branch 18 HARVEST FESTIVAL AND DIAMOND JUBILEE RÁKÓCZI DAY, held Sunday, August 4th, at the Magyar Park near Estral Beach will be unavailable until the September issue. Many officers, members and committees took part in the numerous varied duties of this big undertaking. Since the only thanks they will receive will be public acknowledgement, we feel it is wiser to wait to make a complete report of their names, duties, etc. We can inform our readers, however, that not for many a year has Branch 18 drawn such a crowd from so many branches and groups. Members who have not attended a branch event for many years were seen at this very successful outdoor festival. From Pittsburgh, Branch 18 was honored by the presence of President and Mrs. Julius Macker and Secretary Albert J. Stelkovics. Cleveland’s Branch 14 was well represented by Edward Torda, Joseph Semetko, Nicholas Juhasz & Dr. Andrew Kovács, Director; Director & Mrs. Frank Magyary of Akron; from Branch 45 in Cleveland, Ohio, Director Julius Nadas and Branch Pres, and Mrs. Imre Készéi, Mr. and Mrs. George Varga, Branch 214 in Flint; Division Mgr. & Mrs. Steve Ivancso, and his father, Mr. Ivancso; a large number from Branch 27, Toledo; branch manager William Rosanski, Branch 157, Monroe; and, representing the Detroit branches, were president John Horcsik and District Manager Andrew Vince' of Branch 56, and president Joseph Boldizsár of Branch 500. Our own Branch 18 was well represented not only by a 98% complement of branch officers but also Director Stephen Danko and by National Auditing Committee Chairman Gaspar Papp. All the above mentioned guests were accompanied by families, friends and branch members from the various cities. We thank all the out-oftown guests for making the trip to Detroit to honor Branch 18 on this joyous occasion. Much credit must go to our branch president, John Veszprémi, and to his wife Margaret who is president of the Ladies’ Auxiliary, for their many weeks of hard work planning the fine event. Aided by members of the Ladies’ Auxiliary, the Sports Club and many cooperative members, the Veszpremis should certainly be very proud of the splendid success of this HARVEST FESTIVAL. The seven delegates of Branch 18 are preparing to make the trip to Pittsburgh for the National Convention. For the first time in the history of the branch all seven delegates are second generation members: Julia Danko, Elvira László and Jolán Lucas are Ladies’ Axiliary officers; George Marton is Sports Club president, and Joseph Gross, branch treasurer Géza Madarász and auditing committee member Alexander Koroknay complete the delegation. We all know that there is much work ahead at the Convention, and we know that we will all try our best to work in the interests of the entire membership. * * * The bowling season is about to begin. At this time there are already three teams awaiting branch sponsorship.

As soon as the establishment is decided upon, bowlers will be contacted. In the meantime interested members are asked to leave their names with Elizabeth (Bette) Rigo at the district office, WArwick 8-0887, who will contact the league officers. * ¥ * LADIES’ AUXILIARY COOK BOOKS ARE STILL AVAILABLE.

JOLÁN LUCAS, Reporter. 27 TOLEDO, Ohio Our condolences to President Hazel Vischer and Yolanda Krolak on the recent loss of their beloved father, a member of William Penn in Seward, Pa. Russ, June and Nick Fischer returned from a trip to Rochester, N. Y., where they visited Russ’ folks. Hear they had a wonderful time. Steve and Mary Ivancso and family took a trip to their old stomping grounds in Wimbar, Pa. They attended their 25th class reunion — always a joyous occasion, a time to greet old friends and reminisce. Hats off to Paul Kovács and his committee for a wonderful family outing at Divine Word Seminary. Paul broke his toe a few days before, but his many friends volunteered their services to help. The grounds were spacious and clean, grown-ups and children alike joined in activities. We played horse-shoe, softball, golf and cards. The children had a series of games for their age groups, and I do believe everyone was happy. A young priest from the Seminary wandered over to sample the “Hungarian Bacon” and to visit with everyone. The Twilight softball game between the men and the women was an experience we’ll talk about for quite a while. Naturally, the ladies lost, even tho’ umpire Jim Vischer gave us 4 strikes andl 4 outs. I must give credit to our star player, Miss Julia Vargo, age 8, she scored our ONE run. Ida Kovach at 3rd, caught a line drive that was a beauty — w-as Bob surprised, I managed to hit the ball, but my son caught it. Winning pitcher Jula Vargo. Losing pitcher Pearl Molnár. Maybe we’ll do better next year Pearl. One thing I must say about the men and boys — they did everything right — which reminds me of an old saying, “A' womans place is in the wrong”, — Oh well. Thahks again, Paul, you and your friends can smile with pride for a job well done. Our sincerest wishes to Treasurer John Mokri for a speedy recovery. We miss you John. Mrs. Bochi, mother of Betty and Gizella, toured New- York City while the girls bowled. She also spent several weeks relaxing at a resort in Canada with her son and his family. Visiting the Steve Ivancso’s were the Joe Krempasky family from Johnstown, Pa. Joe is Mary’s brother. Hi, Joe and Nickey.
