FRANCES SHAW MAY BRIDE! Wedding bells were ringing again in the Huziany family! Justine (Jerry) Huziany on Saturday, May 1st took the vows of matrimony with Pfc. Robert P. Johnson, who came to Chicago on furlough. The marriage ceremony was performed at the Holy 'Trinity Church, after holy mass. In the afternoon both families, with Jerry’s godparents, celebrated at the bride’s parents’ residence on LeClaire Avenue. In the evening the young couple, with the brothers and sisters of the bride, visited Chicago’s north side Bowling Lane and the 5100 Club. Our sincere congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Robert P. Johnson! May their every wish be ful­filled with Mankind’s bountiful blessings! Bob, who entered the military services last December, used to work at Montgomery Wards, where Jerry holds an important job. The Johnson family is from South Carolina, where Mrs. Johnson was teaching the English and French languages at a high school. Recently she has retired from her teaching and the family is now making Chicago as their home. At present Botr is solving with the U. S. Air Corps at Keesler Field, Mississippi. Upon his return to the field, he is scheduled to attend the Officers Candidate School * * * Agnes Csontos recently celebrated her 17th birthday. Our congratulations to Aggie! She is a Junior at Harrison Technical High School. For her school paper she has written poems and articles, several of which will be printed in the Journal. After school hours she is doing her bit for the war effort, by working at the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago. * * * Mrs. S. Cwitkovitz (nee Emma Grebenar), formerly of 5732 N. Merrimac Avenue, has been heard from California, where she is staying with her soldier-husband. Both are Chicagoans, and Emma left for California before last Christmas to take the matrimonial vows. And Mrs. Anne Grebenar says the last she heard was that Emma had been employed in a shipbuilding con­cern. * * * From Camp Lee in Virginia there has arrived a heartfelt written letter. Staff Sergeant Paul Szabady wrote that during the Easter holidays he was “Officer of the Day” for 32 hours. His thoughts, he writes, took him to the town church he used to attend back home, and on the joyful peeling of the church bells as the voices of the women sounded above the ringing: “Alleluja! Praised oe the Lord!” “We can realize and sympathize with you, Paul, but we are also hoping that the day is not too far off when Peace again shall reign on this war-stricken earth. * * Frank Talaber (2943 N. Mason Avenue) will celebrate his 24th birthday about the time he receives the Journal. We want to congratulate him and wish him the best of luck, everywhere and always. Frank has recently joined up with the SEABEES, the navy’s construction battalion. He is in Camp Peary, Williams­burg, Va., for basic military training which generally includes commando drill and the use of firearms. In civilian life he worked lor the Victor Gasket Company, a war plant. In the SEABEES serve men who have experience in any of the building trades, heavy construction, mining, electricity, and automotive mechanics. The Seabees are needed to build and maintain overseas bases. STABILITY PROGRESS Careful, conservative and sound Investments assure the STABILITY of Verhovay’s furds and securities, thereby giving full confidence to members and prospective members. Verhovay’s encouragement and promotion oi social movements within and among its branches is in keeping with the spirit of true FRATERNALISM. With its assets making sizable gains yeai after year and its membership increasing by leaps and bounds. Verhovay sees before itself a definite future which spells PROGRESS. SOCIABILITY rather than frowned upon is regarded as essential to the well-being of Ver hovay life and activities. SOCIABILITY FRATERNALISM VERHOVAY FRATERNAL INSURANCE ASSOCIATION 345 FOURTH AVE PITTSBURGH, PA. Mrs. Anne Grebenar (nee Anne Talaber, ex-Junior Secretary) has reason to be proud of her soldier-husband, who is somewhere in North Africa. Since he landed in or around Casablanca, way before last Christmas, Frank has sent her weekly airmail letters. Two weeks ago brought an even sweeter pleasure, for he sent his darlin’ wife a pair of native Arab sandals and a native table­cloth — all fanciwork and colorful. Sergeant Grebenar is serving with the 562nd S. A. W. Bn. * * * Frank Markos (2732 N. Melvina), a senior at Steinmetz High School, is the school’s star 3rd baseman. He has played 4 years on the baseball team and is responsible for many a winning game. The school newspaper “Steinmetz Star” also reports Frank as one oi its outstanding baseball players. Nice work, Frank; we hope to hear more about you! REMARKS CONCERNING THE LAST ISSUE . .. With great pleasure we noted that the Bridgeport Society has unanimously decided to continue the merger discussions with Verhovay as set forth by the joint boards in September 1942. We feel that only great good will be achieved by such a merger. We also hope the proceedings can be carried on more energetically. Reports should appear periodically in the respeceive publications. A LATE-COMER BUT ALWAYS WELCOME Just today a post-card arrived from Pvt. Anton Kovács, who is doing his bit with the 32nd Engineers Battalion in Missouri. On the reverse side is a colorful picture showing the “Service Club Garden at Fort Leonard Wood. Tony boasts of the fine con­ditions at camp, but says that he must attend school every day. Where’s that picture you promised us, Tony? Wednesday, May 5, 1943. THE SCRIBE OF KŐSZEG HINTS FOR DRIVERS An arm protruding from the car ahead means that the driver is: 1.
