November 26, 1947 Verhov ayJournal PAGE 3 Cleveland, Ohio Br. 14-------- ——----------—— ---------Reporting Crape Festival The annual Grape Festival was well attended and some little profit was realized. Geo. Kontur did yeomen’s work behind the bar, as did Paul Bolesic, Oscar Federal! and Joseph Oralik. Gene Toth and Mr. Szilagyi were helping ouc toward the end of the dance. Messrs. Papp, Vida, Kleric and Balunek were the ticket sellers and Mrs. Szalay, Mrs. Csikós, Marie Molnár, Mrs. Stephen Szabó and Mrs. Ladanyi were bosses of the kitchen. The girl’s team was supposed to help, but did not... (Funny, the bowlers didn’t know about it — M.B.) Mr. Sigmund Kadar and Mr. Joseph Szalay supervised the parade and Mr. Joseph M. Toch, organizer, who had a bad leg, hopped from here to there and every.where to keep things moving . . . Howling Tidbits . . . We heard that there was a match game between the Bowling Giants and that the little giants won . . . The ladies of Branch 14 also beat the ladies of Branch SGI by a few pins ... We have twenty-eight (28) teams bowling weekly at the Verhovay Home now and next year we expect to have all double shifts. A number of backers and bowlers already show keen interest. It is a possibility that we may have leagues on Saturday and Sunday afternoons and evenings next year . . . So, you backers and bowlers, get in touch with Gene Toth, aley manager, for a good spot . . . Incidentally, Gene was retained as alley manager, and, personally, I think the selection is very good, because Gene is well known in bowling circles, legions and other groups, politically and otherwise . . . The Verhovay certainly has gained by acquiring him ... He has organized 28 teams and they bowl from Monday to Friday, with a fair chance for organizing a Saturday afternoon league . . . lie has informed us that his plans itjelude match games, local tournaments, mixed doubles, etc. . . . Branch 3G6, too. is moving ahead rapidly . . . They now have a four team league, bowling on Tuesday nights, starting at 7 P.M. The $64 Question . . . The Cleveland Keglers who had won the championship, would like to know the answer to this question: Where is the Brogley Cup ? ? ? We would like to see a complete Pr'ze 1st printed in the near future, listing all the prizes, both special and regular, including the amounts involved . . . Let’s not be bashful about it. The organizer, then, wifi have something to show and work on . . . Br. 45 Anniversary . . . Branch 45 of the West Side held their 40th anniversary at the East Side Hall. A nice Crowd attended and we enjoyed ourselves immensely. We had the pleasure of meeting Mr. E. Készéi, who is branch-president, and Mr. Jcseph Drotos, at the bar, who was whispering to Mr. Michael Si-mo. We regretted very much "not seeing Dr. Andrew Kovács, but his Dad had just passed away and we were heartily sorry for his bereavement. Branch 14 was well represented by a large delegation together with many others of the Cleveland area .. New Year’s Eve Party Chairman Sigmund Kadar of the Entertainment Committee tells us about the New Year’s Eve Party . . . Tickets will be SI.75 a person, which includes dinner, dance and favors at midnight to welcome in the New Year. He also states that he has reserved the best Hungarian orchestva for this occasion: the Szabadkay orchestra. The event will take place at the Verhovay Home, 8637 Buckeye Road. Ye out of towners who plan to spend New Year’s Eve in Cleveland, be sure to send for your reservation to Mr. Joseph M. Toth, organizer, at the above address. We heard that the new managers, Mr. and Mrs. Bodnar, together with Fyank Szappanos, are planning a Managers’ Opening Dinner the first Saturday in December . . . That, too, sounds like a promising affair . . . Tournament News . . . Many offers had been made by Cleveland’s Verhovay population for rooms that will be available to the Cleveland Committee on the National Verhovay Bowling Tournament to be held here in Cleveland on May 14, 15 and 10, 1948. These offers are gratefully acknowledged and held in abeyance to be taken up if the Committee so decides. Right now we are planning to contact an excellent hotel to house our Verhovay guests- for the Tournament 20 minutes from the Verhovay Home and 5 minutes from the bowling alleys. We expect to have all necessary information for the tournament by January 1st. Verhovay members desiring any information pertaining to either the Tournament or Cleveland and vicinity, will please contact Mr. Joseph M. Toth organizer or his secretary, Miss Mary Ann Bodnar, at the Verhovay Home, Cleveland, Ohio. In closing a thought appears to me, which says: “A cynic is a man who looks down on those above him.” Ex Animo JOSEPH J. HORVATH Br. 14 — 8G37 Buckeye Rd. Cleveland 4, Ohio LOUIS CINCEL HURT IN CRASH — District Manager Hospitalized After Head-on Collision. — District Manager Louis Cincel was taken to the Homestead Hospital after a head-on collision with another car whose driver fled from the scene of the serious accident. After a brief chase ho was overtaken by Munhall police and arrested on a charge of reckless and hit-and-run driving. Mr. Cincel was treated for probable fractures and internal injuries, but, fortunately, it was found that his condition did not require prolonged hospitalization. At this writing Mr. Cincel is awaiting his discharge from the Homestead hospital. He will be confined to his home until complete recovery. His many friends are thankful for his escape j from what, easily may have been a fatal accident. We wish him a speedy recovery! The cheapest of all things is kindness, its exercise requiring the least possible trouble and self-sacrifice. —Smiles.

Supreme Secretary Coloman Re-LIFE OWES ME NOTHING Life owes nothing. Let the years Britig clouds or azure, joy or tears; Already a full cup I’ve quaffed; Already wept and loved and laughed, And seen, in ever endless ways, New beauties overwhelm the days. Life owes me nought. No pain that waits Can steal the wealth from memory’s gates; No aftermath of anguish slow Can quench the soiil fire’s early glow. I breathe, exulting, each new breath, Embracing Life, ignoring Death. Life owes me nothing. One clear morn Is boon enough for being born; And be it ninety years or ten, No need for me to question when. While Life is mine, I’ll find ii good, And greet each hour with gratitude. —Author Unknovjn Free for Asthma During Winter If you suffer .with attacks of Asthma and choke and gasp for breath, if restful sleep is difficult because of the struggle to breathe, don’t fail to send at once to the Frontier Asthma Company for a FREE trial of the FRONTIER ASTHMA MEDICINE, a preparation for temporary symptomatic relief of paroxysms of Bronchial Asthma.
