The Association has been sponsoring annual tours to Hungary since 1976. The tour has gained in popularity with each succeeding year. However, the Association reluctantly withdrew its spon­sorship of *he 1986 tour after many persons cancelled their reservations. The cancella­tions followed the nuclear accident at Chernobyl and several terrorist attacks in Europe that summer. Further information on the 1987 tour will be published in future issues of the William Penn Life as it becomes available.
