Fodor) Tour to Hungary sold out Columbus plays host to successful golf tournament NORTH BRUNSWICK, NJ — The 1993 William Penn sponsor­ed tour of Hungary and Austria, scheduled for Sept. 9 to 23, is officially sold out, according to the travel agent arranging the tour. Dozens of members from coast to coast have reserved seats on the tour, said Frank Chrinko of Fugazy International Travel in North Brunswick. The tour group will include members from California, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Ohio and Pennsyl­vania. Even though the tour is "sold out,” members may still make last minute reservations, but only if they contact Fugazy Interna­tional Travel immediately, Mr. Chrinko said. If they miss the cut off, members may opt to be placed on a waiting list in the event that a tour participant should cancel at the last minute. Anyone wishing to join the tour should call Mr. Chrinko toll free at 1-800-828-4488 (New Jersey residents can dial 1-908- 828-4488). The tour will depart from New York Sept. 9 and proceed first to Vienna, Austria for a two-day stay. The tour will then move on to Hungary with visits to Ester­házy Castle, Lake Balaton, the Herend porcelain factory, the Tokay wine region and the Buda Hills. The tour will also include a four-day, four-night stay in Buda­pest during which guests will enjoy a dinner cruise on the Danube River and a gala farewell banquet on the tour’s final night. The cost of the tour is $2,899 per person, based on double oc­cupancy. The tour price includes round-trip airfare from New York, all hotels, breakfast daily, 12 lunches, 10 dinners, the fare­well banquet, the dinner cruise, ground transportation in Europe and all sightseeing tours on the itinerary. COLUMBUS, OH — Chuck Furedy shot a 79 and Helen Fran­­cus scored a 100 to capture the men’s and women’s low gross titles at the 10th Annual William Penn Association Golf Tourna­ment. Joining them in the winners’ circle were Stephen Pronai and Mary Tuss who won the low net titles with scores of 71 and 76 respectively. The four winners were among 134 golfers who played in the hot, sunny weather July 24 at the Turnberry Golf Club in Picker­­ington, Ohio. Eight other golfers took home prizes as the winners of the skill shot contests held during tourna­ment play. Those winners were: Art Mayor and Olga Burinda who placed their shots closest to the line; Gordon Scherer and Johanna Horvath who were closest to the pin; Jerome Hamby II and Gloria Paolicelli who hit the longest drives; and Charles Francus and Dorothy Boyle who sunk the longest putts. Once again, the only prize that went unclaimed was the new car for a hole-in-one on #13. About 20 golfers placed their tee shots on the green, including Steve Orto whose ball came to rest just three feet in front of the cup. But, no one could score an ace to win the 1993 Mercury Sable. After the day’s golfing was done, golfers and guests gathered in the ballroom of the Holiday Inn-Columbus East for the an­nual golf awards banquet. Like the previous day’s golfers reception in the same room, the banquet was an informal and relaxing affair where good spirits and fratemalism abounded. More than 50 dinner guests walked away the winners of free door prizes given away after the meal. These included Maribeth Katona who won a seven-inch portable television and Robert A. Ivancso who won a free golf getaway weekend for two. Thirteen other lucky guests took home prizes in the special raffle held to benefit the William Penn Fraternal Association Scholarship Foundation. The big winners in the raffle included Ken Babb who won a golf getaway weekend for two, Karen Horvath who won the basket of cheer, and Velma Nadalin who won a $75 gift certificate to Tambellini’s Restaurant in Pittsburgh. After all the golfing awards, door prizes and raffle prizes were distributed, it was time for the fun and excitement of the annual auction raffle for a new set of Ping Zing golf clubs and bag. One by one the contestants were selec­ted, and one by one they were slowly eliminated until only one contestant remained—National Director Elmer A. Furedy.
