February 13, 1941 Page 11 Verhovayak Lapja * SPORT PAGE Sportsmen: The SPORT PAGE is devoted to the publication of the athletic and sports activities of our members and should be made the most of. Although the SPORT PAGE may be considered the men’s page, which for obvious reasons it largely is, it is open also—and with enthusiastic welcome— to the sports-minded girls and women of our Verhovay. Every Verhovay athletic or sports contest or achievement, whether by a branch or by an individual member, should find its way to our SPORT PAGE, without fail and in preference to any other publication. VERHOVAY TRI-STATE LEAGUE GETS UNDER WAY Verhovay again takes the role of a pioneer, this time bringing into reality the first Hungarian sports league in Eastern United States, embracing three states. Every credit is due Verhovay for other organizations have been trying unsuccessfully for a number of years to bring this to be. The Sunday afternoons in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania will now be bristling with Verhovay bowlers. The young men will do the bowling; the old timers will beam with pride and enjoy the pleasure of silent watchers.
