The bride wore a long­­sleeved Victorian ‘ gown of blush satin with a long train, and an illusion veil was at­tached to a coronet of orange blossoms. She carried a bouquet of white mums. The bridesmaids wore ivory satin dresses trimmed with old­­fashioned white lace and carried rust-colored mums. The bridal party consisted of six groomsmen and six bridesmaids. The bride’s mother wore a lace blue gown with a corsage of mixed flowers, and the bride­groom’s mother wore a beautiful satin silk orchid­­trimmed black dress with a corsage of orchids. After the wedding a luncheon was served for the members of the immediate families. In the evening at seven thirty a reception was held at St. John’s Hall, Buckeye Road and Ambler. The at­tendance was large and the guests danced to the music of the Primrose Orchestra. Mr. Poxorny, announcer on a WADC program, enlivened the occasion as its master of ceremonies and called upon friends to make speech­es in honor of the newly wedded pair. Speakers were Mr. Petrash, the pastor of St. John’s Church and the parents of the bride and the bridegroom. On the following day, Sunday, the couple left for a two weeks honeymoon. They will reside at Grand Avenue, Cleveland. The mother of the bride­groom is a very cooperative member of the Women’s Di­vision of Branch 361.

The Verhovay bowling alleys have been repaired and are in use now. We bowl every Thursday night beginning at 7:00. The Niles (Ohio) Verho­­vays have challenged us to a mctch which will be played some time after the New Year. Our regular monthly meet­ings hereafter shall be held the FIRST Sunday of every month. The members are The meeting was called to order by past President Steve Horvath, who was duly elected chairman for the December meeting of Branch 429. Elections for the coming year preceeded the regular meeting, with the following members as officers for the branch: Alexander Berche­­ny, President; Marie Gallo­­vich, Vice-President; Jolán Lucas, Corresponding Secre­tary-Treasurer; Helen Zaker, Recording Secretary; Steve Horvath, Comptroller; Cece­lia Herman, Mary Horvath, Auditors; Jolán Lucas, Pub­licity Agent; Mrs. Mary Hor­vath, Elvira László and Michael Kuritar, Sick Visit­ors Officially—every member of the branch as unofficial­ly; Ethel Koy, Marie Gallo­­vich, Helen Zaker, Mary Kuritar and Cecelia Herman representing the younger members and Mrs. Mary Horvath, Mrs. Anna Horvath and Mrs. Samuel Toth re­presenting the older mem­bers as Entertainment Com­mittee, with Alexander Ber­­cheny as Chairman. The new officers will be sworn in at the January meeting. It was decided by the members present that several of our older lady members deserves credit for their tire­less efforts in the past seven years. Alexander Berchény suggested, and it was un­animously voted, that these ladies be given a Christmas present of cash at our An­nual Christmas Party held Friday, December 19. It was also decided that the secre­tary was to write to Su­preme President Darago to inquire about the receiving of souvenir Verhovay pins to be given to these ladies as a lasting reward for their services to the branch. (At the writing of this publicity, the ladies received a very nice letter and their pins from Supreme President Da­rago, which was welcomed by the ladies with thankful­ness and with great pride.) And as a final show of ap­preciation by the members, it was suggested by Cecelia Herman and Steve Horvath that the branch fees of 5c per month be discontinued for these members so long as they remain with Branch 429, thus making them Hon­orary Members. This title of Honorary Member will be given to any other member kindly asked to attend faith­fully and regularly. Fraternally, Mrs. Gabriel Sonkoly, Publicity Agent. who, in the opinion of the majority of the members, gives the same thankless service and labor for the benefit of the branch, with all the ensuing other re­wards. By the way, the three honored ladies are Mrs. Anna Horvath of 3345 Grey­­friars Street, Detroit; Mrs. Samuel Toth, 2873 Roulo Street and Mrs. Mary Hor­vath of 2441 Holly Street, both of Dearborn. We thank you three kind ladies for the aid and tireless services rendered in the last seven years of the existence of Branch 429. The case of Mr. Michael Kuritar, regarding dues to be paid by the Home Office from a special fund created for the purpose, was duly passed on without any com­ments, in view of the fact that it is a worthy cause and very much appreciated by all the members. The Christmas Party was discussed pro and con with the final results that it would be held Friday, De­cember 19, at the Verhovay Home. Bunco and cards would be played with prizes at each table and refresh­ments after games. Santa Claus was to leave presents for all the children at the party. It was suggested by Mrs. Joseph László that a mallet be procured for the new president so that he would not have to call attention to the meeting wih a bottle. Steve Horvath took the re­sponsibility for making the mallet which will be pre­sented to the president at the Christmas Party. With final suggestions for the livening up of the branch as it was in years past, the meeting was adjourned by Ethel Koy and President Betcheny. Fraternally, JOLÁN LUCAS, Corresponding Secretary and Treasurer. Calendar of Verhovay Socials JANUARY 10TH, SATURDAY. — Cleveland, Ohio. — "Widows’ Dance” to be held by the Wo­men’s Division of Branch 361, with music by Cikora & Medve. FEBRUARY 14TH, SATURDAY. — Chicago, Illinois. — Valentine Dance to be held by Branch 96 at Schlitz Hall, 954 West 119th Street Let's Go! — Let's Bowl! By WILLIAM C. KOHUT Branch 430 Homestead, Pennsylvania Sure, that’s the way to do it, let’s go out and bowl. Let’s organize a bowling team and fill out that applica­tion blank for the National Verhovay Bowling Congress. That’s what I say. Bowling teams are mushrooming forth here and there over all the country. Verjiovay branches appear to be extremely fertile for these bowling growths, and they should continue to be, too. We all need some form of recreation and entertainment and the one easiest to obtain and costing the least amount of money is BOWLING. Yes, BOWLING. Once or twice a week is the way to start, and gradually build up to three or four bowling matches each week. You soon find yourself look­­ing forward to these days, these days when you meet with the rest of the croud and “roll 'er down the alley.” A great sport c,nd a lot of fun. At the last Directors’ meeting in Pittsburgh, in Sep­tember, the Board authorized Directors Ari, Brogley and Dr. Prince to draw up tentative rules and regulations for a National Verhovay Bowling Congress to go into active competition in January, 1942. This Congress would have eliminations and final prizes awcrded in Pittsburgh in March of 1942. This is really a chance for those who want to enjoy a great sport as well as try for prizes and advancements. Little is required of the person except that he or she be a member in good standing and be able to bowl. Of course, those who bowl a better game stand a better chance of traveling to Pittsburgh for he finals, with all expenses paid and a great time in store for them when they get to Pittsburgh. If you haven’t done much on this as yet, lohy not get started on it at once? Send in your entry blank and specify thereon your willingness to participate in the National Verhovay Bowling Congress. Why not join the ranks now... not later, but NOW? Five make up a team, so why not round up five or more and get in a few practice licks? It’ll do you good and also enable you to make reservations for a trip to Pittsburgh. Now is the time to act. LET’S GO—LET’S BOWL! Let that be our battle cry.

Customer: By a little mark to show which corner the meat’s in! The Truth The house agent had just informed the prospective tenant that the owner would allow no children, phono­graphs, radio sets, or dogs in his apartments. “Well,” said the house hunter, “we haven’t any of those things, but I want to play fair with the landlord. I guess you’d better tell him my fountain pen squeaks a bit.”
