Branch 24 Chicago, III. 65th Wedding Anniversary Julia (Kadar) Kun and Steve Kun, Sr. were marred on May 26, 1914 in a small village in Hungary and emigrated to this country in June of 1921, settling on Chicago’s south side where they still reside. Mr. and Mrs. Steve Kun, Sr. Being homesick, Mrs. Kun cried for many months and wanted to go back home to the “old country”. The couple, however, simply could not afford to return to Europe and now, in retrospect, are very, very glad they didn’t. After 65 years of married life, both are 84 and still busy and active in church and social activities. Mr. Kun is very proud of his garden filled with an array of fruits, vegetables and flowers. Mrs. Kun is most proud of her delicious Hungarian cooking and her beautiful embroidery and stitchery work. Neither one can offer any “secret formula” for their longevity nor their wedded bliss except to say that the Lord has been good to them in giving them a healthy and happy life thus far. The Kun’s are blessed with six children; Steve Kun, Jr., William Kun, Paul Kun, Julia Melnyk, Mary Igyarto and Lester Kun; fourteen grandchildren; and nine great-grandchildren. Our congratulations are extended to Mr. and Mrs. Kun. One . . . “should hear a little music, read a little poetry, and see a fine picture every day of his life, in order that worldly cares may not obliterate the sense of the beautiful which God has implanted in the human soul. ’ —Goethe Hungarian American Named Chairman of Commission President Carter has appointed Dr. John Kemeny, a Hungarian American who has been a pioneer in the field of mathematical models and computer programming, chairman of the President's Commission on the Accident at Three Mile Island. The President has placed the highest priority on the Commission's work, which will review the entire sequence of events at the nuclear facility in Harrisburg, PA., and report its finding to him. The 12-member Commission's task, according to an Executive Order signed by the President, also includes an assessment of ''how the public's right to information concerning the events at Three Mile Island was served and of the steps which should be taken during similar emergencies to provide the public with accurate, comprehensible and timely information.'' The study also will include an evaluation of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission's licensing, inspection, operation and enforcement procedures as applied to Three Mile Island. Kemeny's appointment was announced personally by the President, who met with the new chairman at the White House. Dr. Kemeny is president of Darthmouth College in Hanover, NH. He is a native of Budapest, Hungary and came to this country in 1940 and began a distinguished career as a mathematician, computer science expert and philosopher. His early career included work as a researcher on the Los Alamos project and two years as a research assistant to Dr. Albert Einstein. He was a professor of mathematics and philosophy at Princeton and became professor of mathematics and philosophy at Darthmouth in 1954 and became the college president of Darthmouth in 1970.
