60th Annual Bowling Tournament Bowling weekend nets record amount for scholarship fund MANY MEMBERS ENJOYED a good weekend during our bowling tourna­ment, but not as good a weekend as our Scholarship Foundation did. A total of $16,735 was raised for the benefit of the Foundation, making this year's tournament the most successful fund-raising weekend ever. Most of that total ($10,000) was raised during the annual meeting of the William Penn Fraternal Associa­tion Scholarship Foundation held May 23 at the Radisson Hotel Greentree. The benefit raffle drawn during Saturday's bowling awards dinner raised $2,430. Another $1,300 was collected through the lane sponsor­ship program (see list on next page). The ever-popular Chinese auction, held during Friday's bowlers recep­tion, featured 44 prize packages and raised another $2,000 for the scholar­ship foundation. Our thanks to one and all for their generosity and support. In other Foundation business, 14 members were elected during the annual meeting to serve on the Foundation's Board of Directors. They were: Rose P. Antal, Ronald Balia, Steven Beke, Kathy Chobody, Tom House, Stephen J. Ivancso Jr., Margaret Leonardo, Joan Mauerman, Helen Molnár, Michael Oberg, Carrie Ryan, Alexander Sera, Carol Truesdell and Donna Varga. Mr. Oberg, a WPA scholar­ship recipient entering his junior year at the Uni­versity of Michigan, thanked the Foundation on behalf of all his fellow recipients. "When I was younger, I thought of the William Penn Associa­tion as bowling, picnics and Christ­mas parties," he said. As he grew older he "wondered how he became a member of this great fellowship." It was his grandfather, the late Richard Miastkowski, who enrolled him when Michael was just a boy and whom Michael honored with a donation to the Foundation."! am very proud to be part of such a great community of people," he said. Also among the donations was a check for $500, representing money raised by Carrie Ryan. Carrie collected the money from her co­workers in memory of her late brother, Ben­jamin Bero. "All I did was tell [my co-workers] I was collecting dona­tions for the Scholarship Foundation and they responded so gener­ously." One co-worker even donated $100, she said. Thank you, lane sponsors!
