Through a special arrangement, the William Penn Association has purchased limited, one-time editions of exquisite porcelain plates and expertly crafted crystal stem ware. Now, we are offering these exclusive pieces to our members and friends AT COST. First, there is the special 100th Anniversary Com­memorative Plate (shown above). These plates were produced by the world famous HEREND Porcelain fac­tory in Herend. Hungary. Each plate is hand-made and hand painted in the Herend tradition of excellence. On­ly 1,000 of these fine plates were produced, then the mold destroyed. Similar plates cost from $75 to $100, but we are offering these plates to you AT COST for just $25 each. For those who love fine crystal, we also are making available elegant sets of lead crystal stem ware produc­ed by the Ailka factory in Hungary. Each set includes six wine goblets and a matching decantur — perfect for those special evenings. You can own one of these limited edition sets for only $88.50. . . but act quickly for only 25 sets remain. So, join us in our celebration and remember it with beautiful gifts that u : last a lifetime. Orchestra Displays Range In Cleveland Performance Dayton Centennial Celebration Puts Guests In Festive Mood restaurant, too, giving them an opportunity to meet the performers from Hungary. The concert goers return­ed to their homes that even­ing. Many said the music continued to ring happily in their ears, and that they were filled with the feeling of fraternalism so often gener­ated at a gathering of William Penn members. One member was remind­ed of the lyrics from an old favorite melody of hers: “How I treasure every measure till the last note dies/When a gypsy makes his violin cry.” By Albert G. Kertesz National Director June 7, 1986 will remain a pleasant memory for the 322 members, guests and friends of the Association who attended Branch 249, Dayton, Ohio’s Centennial Celebration. The grand ballroom of the Dayton Marriott Hotel pro­vided a proper setting for the occasion, which included the final performance of the Santa Ferenc Gypsy Or­chestra and singers Apollonia Kovács and Deszo Sándor Hodos during their William Penn-sponsored seven-city tour of the United States. A number of those in at­tendance were in such a festive mood that dancing began with the first selec­tion played by the orchestra. For this reason the opening ceremony was delayed. After the dinner, National Director Albert Kertesz greeted the guests, exten­ding a special welcome to those who traveled from dis­tant cities and states. He also introduced the celebra­tion committee, branch of­ficers and their spouses. An engraved plaque was presented to Branch Vice President Steve Horvath for his devoted efforts in pro­moting fraternalism. Branch President John Motko delivered greetings in Hungarian, during which he also thanked those who at­tended the celebration and wished all a pleasant evening. Executive Vice President John Kenawell presented an informative report regarding the purpose, programs and facilities of the Mount St. Seorge Home for the Elderly. The principal address was delivered by National Presi­dent Gay B. Banes. In his The concert was hosted by Branch 14, Cleveland, in commemoration of the Association’s 100th anni­versary. From the minute the first note was played to the very last number, these accom­plished performers held their audience captive with their treasury of golden favorites. Following the concert, the orchestra and singers were the guests of Norma Farr, proprietress of the Bit of Budapest Hungarian restaurant. Many audience members visited the remarks, President Banes reflected on the early years and the current and future aims of the Association. The audience accepted his remarks with apparent great interest. Chairman of the Board Stephen G. Danko introduc­ed the members of the of­ficial family and their spouses, and thanked everyone for their attention. The remainder of the even­ing was devoted to listening and dancing to the sounds of the Hungarian singers and musicians. The au­dience appeared amazed by the sounds of the music fill­ing the ballroom, and the entertainers responded to their appreciation accord­ingly. By Emma Oris Branch Reporter The power of Hungarian music is equal to any. Its emotion runs from the high jubilation of the energetic, spirited dance, the csárdás, to the depths of sadness in a lament, the hallgata. The essence and spirit of Hungary’s music was recre­ated May 18 at the Valley Forge High School in Parma, Ohio, when the Santa Ferenc Gypsy Orchestra and vocalists Apollonia Apollonia Kovács renders a sad Hungarian melody during her appearance Kovács and Deszo Sándor in Cleveland.
