1950 / Verhovay Journal
Verhovay Journal THE FERRET SEZ ! By Mrs. Jolán Lucas Branch 429, Dearborn, Mich. ANNUAL MEETING At the Annual Meeting held by Branch 429 on Sunday, January 29, the following officers were elected: President Malcolm J. MacLeod; Vice- President John Fisher; Recording Secretary Marie Gallovich; Comptroller Roger N. Rogers; Branch Manager and Publicity Agent Jolán Lucas; Auditors Mrs. Samuel Toth and Mrs. Anna Horvath; Sick Visitors Michael Kuritar, Mrs. Daniel Rob, George Boonie and Jolán Lucas. It was decided that meetings would not be held every month, but rather every other month. The next meeting will be held at the home of the Branch Manager, Jolán Lucas, 2522 Carson Street on Saturday EVENING, March 4, beginning any time after 7:30 p.m. The 429ers have found that social meetings are more successful than the strict business meetings held at the Verhovay Club. There will be cards, informal discussion, and REFRESHMENTS! So please plan to attend — Saturday Evening, March 4th. Because 1950 is the Fifteenth Anniversary of the branch, a huge social affair of some sort is to be planned. The usual banquet held by the branch was voted out, but a surprise is in store for the fall months. Look for this announcement in a later issue. Those members who attended the Annual Meeting álready know about the affair, and committees have been named, but for '„he time being the surprise event will be kept — well, just that, a SURPRISE! Watch each issue for details. ¥ ¥ THE BOWLING TOURNAMENT The men’s team of Branch 429 is all lined up, rarin’ to go and win that handsome trophy. Better plan early enough to have your entry fees ready for Captain Rod Rogers, so that he can mail the entries in before March 31st. Along- with Rod, there is A1 Novak, A1 Bercheny, Clifford Parsons, and Luke Lucas. Most of these men, along with their women, are planning to take the train to Youngstown. While* discussing the tourney, a suggestion was made which The Ferret was to pass along' to other Detroit bowlers who are planning the trip. Why not take the train, and reserve an entire coach for all Detroiters to go together? It should be loads of fun and not quite so lonely as driving down in individual cars. As far as the women’s team is concerned, we aren’t quite certain yet who all will be making the trip. If there are loose unattached women bowlers in other Detroit branches who are not on a tournament team at present, but who desire to participate in the 1950 Tournament, please call me at VInewood 1-8779 so that a team can be made up. There are usually a couple of women at Branch 500, so if Captains Betty Vinic or Olga Boldizsár have some one who would like to bowl on a V. team, please let me know. As you all know every team auto- | matically participates in the Best Uniform Contest, and I can guarantee those women who will bowl on the 429 team that uniforms have been lined up — TEMPORARILY — so that the team should have as good an opportunity of winning that Best j Uniformed Prize as any of the others. How about it gals? I just gotta bowl in that Verhovay Tournament and 1 need help! :;t sis SOCIAL NOTES Just to give you an idea of how j Branch 429 operates: Little Mary G. ; Szalay Is getting married soon, and her sister Irene MacLeod is giving her a wedding shower in the Verhovay Club. Who will the majority of ■the guests consist of? You guessed it February 15, 1950 — a goodly portion of the 429ers. Congratulations, Mary! Then there is baby sister Josephine Crocker — baby showers for Josie in the near future. Good luck and best wishes to the Malcolm MacLeods on their new baby daughter, Cheryl Ann, and to inlaws, the Julius Szalays and their newest addition, Barbara. What I can’t understand is why these two babies haven’t got their VFIA protection as yet? Let me tell you about the best Verhovay policy for brand-new babies — the 18 year Educational Endowment. I wish I had had the brains and foresight 18 years ago to take out at least 82,000 worth of this protection. Here is the Skipper with one semester in at the University of Michigan. His Educational policy comes due in August and how I wish it were several thousand dollars rather than the few hundred bucks I felt I could afford at the time I took out his present policy. Most young couples have plans of college for their kids, but the high cost of higher education is enormous. Now with one »f these Educational policies, how simple it is to see those kids of ours get the very best training for their future, at a nominal cost to the parents, today! Believe me, folks, I’m learning the hard way — take a tip from me and get those Educational Endowments now, today, while the rates are low on youngsters. It pays off in the long run — in happiness and assurance for yourself and the kiddies. THE 7th VERHOVAY ANNUAL FRANK BROGLEY & ALBERT B.
