SAJGÓ: THE HUNGARIAN LIFE-LINE “A HUNGARIAN CHEMIST WITH CAPITALIST IDEAS...” With these words begins the article of Anne McGrath about László Boris in the Forbes magazine. She wrote, “he made it to the US (in 1956) with $4, enough English to say ‘please speak slowly’ and a knowledge of polymer chemistry”. Boris founded Composite Container Corp., Medford, Mass., after doing research at MIT and working for NASA. Composite Container is one of the growing number of materials manufacturers supplying multilayer plastic sheeting and films to packaging industry. The packaging material Boris manufactures are lighter, more compact and cheaper in many uses than metal and glass alternatives. Boris can satisfy a client who wants to package cheese and crackers together, avoid refrigeration, keep crackers dry and allow heating before use. Boris foresees steady growth for his enterprise. He said, “we sold $200,000 worth of sheet our first year, the second year we sold a little over $1 million, this year we’ll probably sell $20 million. By 1987 we are projecting sales of 160 million.” founded for preserving and promoting the Hungarian language, culture, and traditions, and for providing a place of fellowship among Hungarians and other nationalities of all ages in the Toledo area.

Lillian Keil Treasurer When we read about László Boris’ brilliant achievement and success we experienced that beautiful feeling we felt everytime we heard about a Hungarian who succeeded. We felt a warm feeling in our hearts combined with pride because one of us excelled. We felt as we were sharing Boris’ success because all of us are the shoots of the same root. “COLLEGE EUROPE" at Budapest St. John’s University, Jamaica, N.Y. and three universities of Budapest worked out a new project — “College Europe”. The results are exemplar. It will open possibilities for 140 American university students to study at the universities at Budapest beginning September 1985. The courses will be taught in English and they will include History of European Art and Architecture, Comparative Law and Jurisdiction, Economic History of Eastern and Central Europe, Modern European Literature and European Catholic Church. The course of 12-15 semester hours includes a three week long study-tour in Austria, Italy and Greece. Although the language of the course and lecture during the tour will be in English, there will be also opportunities to learn Hungarian. The spokesperson of St. John’s University said: “the purpose of the program is to bring closer the American and Hungarian students by studying together and making personal acquaintances”. William Heller of New York Post wrote an exciting report about Budapest in connection with the “College Europe”. He accentuated that Budapest is the third largest metropolis in the Eastern block, after Moscow and Leningrad, having 2 million inhabitants, 20 theaters, 2 opera houses, numerous museums and art galleries and a superb sport stadium.
