VOL. XLVIII. NOVEMBER 17, 1965 NUMBER 22 Pittsbnrgh - Pittsburgh Here We Come NATIONAL BOWLING TOURNAMENT-FELLOWSHIP DAYS 80TH ANNIVERSARY LINKED TOGETHER The members of the Board of Directors were amazed to see how many cities were interested in hosting the 23rd National Bowling Tournament and Fellowship Days. Youngstown, Toledo and Cleveland in Ohio, Johnstown-Windber-Scalp Level and Pittsburgh in Pennsylvania, Buffalo in New. York, New Brunswick, Trenton, and in fact all the other cities in New Jersey (for Atlantic City) sought earnestly to have this national event. The deciding factor was the reminder that came from National President Elmer Charles and Director Michael Faczan that the year 1966 would mark the 80th Anniversary of the founding of our great society. Consequently, and with sincere thanks to all those bidding for the tournament, the Board of Directors unanimously chose Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and emphasized that the observance of the 80th Anniversary would climax the 23rd Annual National Tenpin Bowling Tournament and Fellowship Days. Again National Controller John Sabo, was unanimously named by the Board of Directors, Administrator of the entire celebration. The first duties of the Administrator were the selection of the headquarters hotel and the bowling establishment. After a series of meetings and much correspondence Mr. Sabo announced that again the modern Hilton Hotel would serve as our headquarters while again the modern Laura Lanes, with sixty^AMF lanes, in Harmarville (near Springdale, Pennsylvania) would be the scene of the bowling contests. All members who participated in the 1964 Tournament and Fellowship Days will recall the magnificent quarters they had at the Pittsburgh Hilton and the wonderful time they had at the dinner and dance staged in the Grand Ballroom. It is the intention of Administrator Sabo and his assistants, together with the local members of the Board of Directors, Vice-President Julius Lenart, who also is the 1965 Chairman of the Board of Directors and Director John Balia that the observance of the 80th Anniversary will see the most impressive celebration ever presented in the historic annals of our Association. There will be significant innovations at the dinner and dance, particularly in the type of entei’tainment. There will be some changes in the rules and regulations as well as in the operation of the bowling tournament. Details will be announced in later editions of our official publication. A committee composed of the members of the Staff, including National President Elmer Charles, National Secretary Albert J. Stelkovics, National Treasurer Julius E. Somogyi, Investment Manager Richard J. Phillips will work with the Administrator to work out details of a gigantic membership campaign which will be dedicated to the 80th Anniversary and the 23rd National Bowling Tournament and Fellowship Days. The year 1966, OUR 80TH ANNIVERSARY YEAR will be very significant and important to our future and our continued progress. Let it suffice, for now, to say our Memorial Day Weekend should see the William Penn honored as a PARTNER IN PROGRESS with the Rennaissance City, PITTSBURGH, site of our Home Office, and host city for all members who shall participate in the 23rd National Bowling Tournament and Fellowship Days.
