CHICAGO DISTRICT DIRECTORS MOSES CSÖMÖR ANDREW DOBOS, Jr. Dr. JOSJEPH PRINCE JOHN SZALANCZY 1037 Washington Ave Box 914 515 N. Broadway 12042 Princeton Ave Madison, Illinois Pocahontas, Virginia Dayton, Ohio Chicago, Illinois CHICAGO DISTRICT SECRETARIES Hungarian Secretary English Secretary ERNEST KITNSTADT Mrs. LOUIS SABO 3245 Lakewood Avenue - Chicago, Illinois 11934 Lowe Avenue - Chicago, Illinois CHICAGO DISTRICT MEETING AT CHICAGO, ‘ ILLINOIS L! ■ ; , ; An; important meeting of the Chicago District was held Sunday afternoon, April 27th, in Prokop’s Hall, home of Chicago Branch 96. Mr. John Szalanczy, Presidents of the 55th Jubilee Celebration and Membership prive Committee in the Chicago District, welcomed the members representing the following branches: 37 of Burnside; 55 of Hammond; 96 of'Chicago; 127 of Joliet; 130 of East Chicago; 138 of Gary; 164 of Chicago; 229 of Indiana Harbor; 275 of Milwaukee; 342 of Chicago; 371 of Gary; 428 of Milwaukee; 475 of Milwaukee; and 503 of Chicago. : After the minutes of the previous meeting were read, accepted and certified, a letter from Branch 132 in So. Bend, Indiana was read, in which they accused the Officers and Committee in charge of the 55th Jubilee Celebration and Membership Drive in. the Chicago District of disregarding them at our meetings, which statement is false, for both So. Bend Branches 132 and 434 were invited to every one of the Chicago District meetings. Mr. Nyisztor, President of. Branch 130, related the first District meeting was held in East Chicago, home of Branch 130 when South Bend was represented and nothing was said or done at the meeting to give South Bend the impression they were being left out of the District’s plans. On the contrary, they seemed to agree with all motions and discussions at the meeting. Mr. Peleskey, of Gary Branch 138, made a motion that, although it was very painful to him and his fellow members that South Bend refuses to co-operate and show the fraternalism that our organization advocates, we disregard their letter and decision altogether and continue with our plans as originally outlined. Mr. Peleskey’s motion was unanimously agreed to. For the information of members of South Bend Branches 132 and 434: Those who wish to participate in the Chicago District Membership Drive and take advantage of the generous prizes may do so by contacting either one of the two secretaries, Mrs. Louis Sabo, 11934 Lowe Ave, i Chicago, Illinois, or Mr. Er- J nest Kunstadt, 3245 Lakewood Ave, Chicago, Illinois. The next letter to* be read, changed the atmosphere of the meeting and revived the true brotherly feeling towards one another, for, from a greater distance than betwen Chicago and South Bend, came words of encouragement and support. Dr. Joseph Prince, Director of Dayton, Ohio and Joseph Bumbulucz, District Organizer reported that the following members have entered the Chicago District Membership Drive: Irene Policzan; Anna Murin; Joseph Czeiszperger; George Kuritar; George Soproni; Adam Krisko; Gabor Jerne; Andrew Hankoczy, Stephen Haller and Alexander Kocsmar, of Dayton, Ohio; Mrs. George Kertesz of Filbert, West Virginia; Mrs. Andrew Dobos and Mrs. John Szabó, of Pocahontas, Virginia. Here’s hoping that each and every one of them will be a winner. The day of days is drawing near, June 22nd, when the Chicago District will celebrate the 55th Jubilee of our Association — 55 years of achievements and accomplishments that every member can be proud of. The committee, planning this gala program, earnestly seeks your cooperation in the name of the fraternalism for which the Verhovay Fraternal Insurance Association stands, in order to make this VERHOVAY DAY of distinction in the annals of the history of our organization. Each branch represented at our last meeting was assigned to their respective duties for the Jubilee Celebration. Members of Branch 37 and 96 are in charge of selling and collecting admission tickets at the entrance of the grounds. Women members of Branch 37 and 96 will take over the duties of the kitchen, preparing and serving plate lunches. Women members of Indiana Harbor Branch 229 will prepare and serve Laczi Pecsenye. East Chicago Branch 130, under the leadership of Mr. Thomas Kochis, will be in charge of the bingo games. Chicago Branches 164 and 503 will be in charge of selling refreshment tickets. Gary Branches 138 and 371 will sell ice cream and soda pop. Milwaukee branches will take charge of the "Hooligan Booth.” Two members "from each branch will assist at the bar. Besides these assignments, branch secretaries are requested to have fifteen able and willing members available for any assistance that will be necessary at the picnic. The names of these fifteen members should be handed in at the next district meeting to either of the two secretaries. The deadline for handing in material for publication in the Jubilee Album has been postponed to May 30th, which gives you a little more time to solicit names and advertisements. All business being taken care of for the present, Mr. John Szalanczy adjourned the meeting until May 25th, which will be held in Burnside. Fraternally, Mrs. Louis Sabo District Secretary.--------:o:--------FIRST ANNUAL VICTORY DANCE OF THE VERHOVAY TRI-STATE BOWLING LEAGUE TO BE HELD IN NEW YORK The first Annual Victory Dance will be held in honor of the champion bowli ng team of the Verhovay Tri- State Bowling League.

There isn’t; anything she wouldn’t do If in any way it was a help to you, She would even give her life To save you from some dangerous strife. —Josephine Edvertoski Branch 5 Maynard, Ohio.
