PAGE 8 _ Verhovay Journal FEBRUARY 12, 1947 ßowling With Square Balls Is Fun! Finds Reporter of Bowling Match Between Buffalo and Steel City Teams. Should some kindred Verhovay Bold get up at a branch-meeting suggesting that a group of ten or fifteen take a trip to some neighbouring city and get acquainted, he no doubt would be rushed to the nearest medico to be examined for some disturbance. the cranium but if the branch sponsored a bowling team the one making the same suggestion automatically would become the next president of the branch. Thru7 the sport of howling members of Branch 383 are meeting a grand crowd of people whom they could not meet otherwise, as was the case last January 25th and 26th when a return match game was rolled off with the men’s and women’s teams of Youngstown, O. To acquaint our readers with the grand time enjoyed by the Queen city guests, we will start with early Saturday morning when two cabs arrived* at this writer's domicile. Mrs. Young, this writer's better half, took charge of one of these land—boats and I of the other and off we went to pick up the gang at their homes and, arriving with them at the N.Y.C. station, we met the others who journeyed in solo front the hinterlands. After hoarding the ehoo-ehoo, we all settled down in a group and it was not before long that everybody on the train was listening to the welkin ring with Bongs of the Romany trails. Towards two bells sandwiches, eats, |etc., were opened up and two of *>ur members hauled forth the “stalonna” and according to custom fell to with their knives in the old traditional style that had a basket ball team in the same car agape at humans eating bacon in the raw . . . Ah, well, they haven't lived yet...! Arriving in the Steel City late at 1 P.M., we were met at the station by Mr. Andrew Blasko, Mr. George Gregory-Gregosils, n»mrger of Branch 364, and Mr. John Barkó who took us to the Ohio hotel where reservations were made in advance for the group, dormitory style for both the gals and guys, although some had to bunk double in some of the rooms . . . Then the party broke up into groups, some to see the town, others to visit relatives and friends. At 7 P.M., the boys were back to pick up the gang and took them to the West Side Hungarian Home where music, refreshments and cards awaited the visitors. Although only the members of the weaker sex played cards, a gallery of kibitzers were on hand, and after tlie gritting of teeth and curling of toes subsided, Ma’ Young folded up the lettuce announcing it was her lucky day. Then W’e descended to the basement of the Home and were entertained by a Liar overflowing with litjuid cheer, by the humorous stories of District Manager Jose A Nemes and others who came to meet us there. After plenty of dancing and music the party broke up in the W'ee hours of the morning and returned to the hotel where it took the house detective to lullaby some of the members asleep. Early Sunday morning the phone rang from the women's room and inquiries were made if any of the male group were going to the House of Worship. We met the girls after breakfast and informed them that cars would ‘ be at hand at 1 P.M., to take us to the Marvondale Alleys where we arrived in time for the games. The Buffalo gals got down to. business and had a close lead over their opponents thru’ all the games, while the Youngstown Men’s team, 9 strong, showed the Buffalo hoys that bowling is done with a round hall, not a square one. The results were the same as in Buffalo last March: the women won there and the men here. (Scores elsewhere in the Journal.) After getting hack to the hotel and into fresh shirts the group was taken to St. Stephen's Church Hall on Wilson Avenue, where Youngstown's leading cooks prepared their best dinner for the Buffalo aggregation. After a meal of creamed chicken “paprikas”, fit for a king, speeches were in order by Mr. Nemes, as Master of Ceremonies, Director Joseph Turner, Manager Joseph Danish, M. Kostyo, Mr. Juhász, sports fund treasurer, Father Wasko and this reporter. Then the dinner tables were removed and the Sikora and Medve Orchestra, the Bing Crosby hand of Youngstown, arrived. It wasn’t long before the hoys were rendering ‘csárdás music that only left the paralized on their seats. It really was a wonderful dance and it was there that we met many of the fine peo-BOWLING — SCORES — ! I (Continued from page 7.) CUT-THROATS M. Sally 144139 116 399 T.

CHILDREN’S PAGE IN NEXT ISSUE! For the second time since the introduction of the Children’s Page the editor ratals the necessity of omitting this feature from the |>re. sent issue. The various annual reports appearing in this issue have top priority. Several contributions had been lpft over from the last issue because of lack of space and had to be given preference as a matter of courtesy. As a result, some features must be omitted from this issue to be included in the coming one. We hope to be able to carry the Children’s Page in the next two issues, thereby making good its omission at this time. The Editor pie we ran into when in Pittsburgh, from Detroit and elsewhere. It was a real pleasure to meet District Manager Nick Takacs ex-Buffaloian from Detroit who was in town visiting bis kids, and to greet branch-president Mr. Hahodasz and many others. At 12.30 the dance came to an end, lucky for us, for we could not have left otherwise. A parade of cars escorted the Buffaloians to the station and waited until the train pulled out while our hosts waved us a farewell . . . Back on the train every one of the group settled down to think of the great time we just had and that always will be a sweet memory for us all . . . The guests from the Queen City were the following: Capt. Olga Nezezon, Goldie Young, Mary Feyes subbing for Stell' Orosz, Irene Gutái, Helen Young, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Sumi, Frank Vereb Branch-President, Pete Young, Frank Szallar, Julius Gyimoty, Jimmy Young, Joe Taylor and this writer, in whose behalf I wish to thank each and every fellowmember in Youngstown O., fqr the wonderful time they had shown us while in their city. Special thanks to Air. Andrew Blasko and Mr. George Gregory who donated their time and cars to the guests while making their stay a truly pleasant one It is jieople like you who really start one thinking that there is something in fraternalism . . .- CHARLIE YOUNG, Manager, Br. 383. SMILES After giving the private a dressing down for being so late in returning with the supplies, the sergeant demanded, “Okay, let's hear how it happened, Miller.” “Well, I picked up a chaplain along the road,” explained^ the woebegone rookie, “and from then on the mules couldn't understand a word I said." Soldier: “Dearest, I love you terribly.” Girl: “You certainly do!’’ Jack: How did you come to marry a girl you didn’t particularly care for? Tom (gloomily): I attribute it to the fact that she wanted me worse than I didn’t want her. -- BIRTHDAYS -with a one line biography of oeople from all over the world for each day of the year.
