Taylor, District Mgr, Well, here I am back again after missing the April issue of our Wil­liam Penn. No excuses offered for missing. I am very sorry to have to report to the membership that we lost two members during the last month: Mi­chael Raber, who was a well-known figure on the west side; Sándor Kal­man, father of our good friends and printers, Boris and William Kal­man. I understand that Mr. Kalman was one of the pioneers in the Chi­cago area in printing and publishing a Hungarian weekly newspaper. Our condolences to both bereaved families,. On the sick list we have quite a few members, among them being the uncle of William Feifar, Mr. Alajos Feifar; Julius Szabo’s dad down in Florida, Julius, Sr.; Mrs. Paul Sza­bó, who is the wife of one of the founders of a Verhovay branch in Chicago; Mr. Joseph Posh, Mr. Julius Valko and Mrs. Carl Heisen. Sr>cial to Charles (Tavern Owner) Hetze!: I hear that your team got whipped in the match game and that you personally are going to give some of the boys bowling les­sons. But we had a pleasant time afterwards. In the Moose league, Stuparits #2 led the league by one game after the bowling was over last Monday night. Keep your fingers crossed for us, as yours truly bowls on this team. We received a little card the other day announcing the birth of a son to Mr. Paul Toth and his wife, the former Rose Schranz, Congratula­tions. On Belmont avenue there is a shoe repair shop that has been in the neighborhood for 30 years. The owner is a good member of our As-Board of Directors Meets (Continued from page 1) establishing approximately $1,003,000.00 of extra liabilities. These liabilities provide for 3% reserves on all business of the former Rákóczi Aid Association, that is, on the former 4% and 3Vs% business. It also provides additional reserves for loss of interest in the year of death, as well as providing $500,000.00 of special dividends, set aside for paid-up insurance to certain former Rá­kóczi members, as provided by the Merger Agreement. Our sol­vency ratio, after setting up of these extra reserves, of 107.27% attests to the excellent financial condition of the society __ The Board of Directors decided that during the course of the 70th Jubilee Year a tremendous membership contest is to be conducted, in such a manner that even the manager of the small­est branch will have the opportunity to win valuable prizes, Comniete information will be sent the branch managers. The minutes of this Board of Directors meeting will be pub­lished in the next — June — issue of the WILLIAM PENN. sociation, and the following is an ode to him: Thirty years ago today, A man called “Pete” came here to stay; His sign read “Pete’s Shoe Repair,” And gone were our cobbling cares; His work is always in demand, So let’s give him a friendly hand. And wish him the best of luck, A man with courage and with pluck; And if I may add one last line, I* hope he never runs out of home­made wine. I sincerly hope that some of your friends, “Pete,” will get what I want them to out of the “poem.” OOPS Department. I failed to re­port that Mrs. Ben Trapani gave birth to TWINS weighing 6 lbs. 2 oz. and 5 lbs. 1 oz., whom they have named Janet Marie and Joan Terese. Also, on March 23rd, Joseph Sebes­tyen, of Carroll Avenue, was pre­sented with a son, Joseph Stephen, 8 lbs. 2^ oz. Some people have asked why we are sending only two teams to the bowling tournament this year. Well, with the months of May and June, and all their showers, weddings and social affairs that are going on here in Chicago, it is impossible to be in two places at once, so this year we will not be represented in the style that Chicago usually turns out for the tourneys. In the month of May we shall see Bob Puskarits take his vows on the 12th. He will be followed by Ernie Tallian, then Willie Stuparits will take his vows. Enjoy yourselves, boys, while 1 you still have time and are still single. I understand that the same Satur­day that we are having our dance we will also give a return match in bowling to the Branch 50 men and 130 men. We shall give you more details on the results after the match games. Our bowling season ends on May 4th except for the sweeper. Our bowling banquet will be on May 6th, Sunday afternoon. JOIN and SERVE ...answer the call! CHATTERBOX Branch 129-V Columbus, Ohio The bowling season of our league ended with a BANG the night of March 23d. The regular season was finished with a tie March 16th, so the roll off for the league cham­pionship was set for the following week. The biggest and noisiest crowd of rooters was on hand to cheer for their favorite team. They had many exciting moments as the games were real close right down to the 10th frame. William Penn #4 and William Penn #2 were the teams tied. #2 took the championship by winning the first two games of the roll off. The team is made up of the following men: 1. Earl Miller 2. Verlin Gregory 3. Jim Boucher 4. Ralph Di Carolis 5. Bill Franklin (captain). They are making the trip to Buf­falo, hoping to bring home the championship. Branch 129-V will he represented at Buffalo this year with 11 men's teams and 4 women’s teams. Most of the players will travel by train, hut a few will drive. We wish them all a safe and sound journey. It is almost time to put in “30r> for this write-up as we caution Buf­falo: “Dust off your best wood, Buffalo, and have the fire brigade standing by ’cause we of William Penn, #2, Columbus, Ohio, plan to be real hot that day.” Good luck to all the bowlers and may we meet in Buffalo.
