PAGE 12 March 20, 1957. William Penn Motor City news BRANCH 36-V — DETROIT, MICHIGAN By Jolán Lucas AS THE 'MARCH WIND BLOWS! Your Ferret’s article this month Will be something- on the order of typical Manch weather — you know •— rain, snow, hail, wind, spring-like weather and so on... in fact, a little of everything. Since the regular monthly branch meetings have been moved up to the second Saturday evenings of the month, all branch matters and events will be reported in the following month’s issue, because of the dead­line date which is the first Wednes­day of each month. Then, if some­thing important should come up, a quick squeeze will be made in the “Branch Briefs” cplumn of the Wil­liam Penn .This will be a good time ' to clean up odds and ends and get in gear again to report on the March meeting (which, sorrowfully, I will be unable to attend — a friend’s daughter is getting married, and it’s “one of those must-attend things”). ❖ * ❖ In going through my notes of the past couple of months, I notice a number of matters which were not brought to the attention of the me­tropolitan Detroit area membership, but only through lack of space! American and Hungarian flags, a few pictures, a couple of leather lounge chairs or settees, some leather chairs, and that’s about all. Gosh, we really need office equip­ment! At the present time, the Fekete Insurancé Agency staff are still tenants in our office .until such a time as their new quarters become ready, so with all the present office furniture, plus our few items, the district office has an efficient air of business about it. New- office fur­niture wall have to be purchased when Mr. Fekete and his staff move out •— including additional desks for our district managers and the office as-, sistant, adding machines, typewriters, filing cabinets (I believe our three district managers, Stephen Lukacs, Joseph Szabó and John Vass have some of this equipment in their homes), and the many other pieces of equipment needed to handle a business successfully. There are two private offices, plus the back room where branch meetings are held, and the other day I noticed some fancy new lettering on the front window. I feel that a hanging sign should be included so that it would be easily noticed by the members from a little distance away — this possibly will LAPSED — NOVEMBER 1956 R Wasik Dolores, Juhász Jr. Joseph J., Kochis Nancy V., Kochis Sharon R., Melko Richard, Taylor Charles S., Taylor John E.; 1-R Bridle Marvin J.

Total; 69 be installed. Give us a little more time and the William Penn Detroit District Office will be one of the best equipped in the community. Remember the ad­dress: 3920 Fort Street, Lincoln Park — Telephone WArwick 8-0887 — directions: straight out Fort Street beyond Southfield Road, a couple of blocks beyond the Lincoln Park Shopping Plaza — you can’t miss it! Along with the moving in, a Grand Opening of the William Penn Fra­ternal Association will be held on March 24th Sunday from 2 p. m. to 6 p. m. The opening will be attended by the Mayor of Lincoln Park, members of the City Council and many dis­tinguished Hungarian leaders. Details of this Grand Opening will be well­­publicized in the Detroit Hungarian newspapers and radio, both issues of the William Penn, and the Melius newspaper which serves seven down river communities, leaving its pub­licity on every door step every Thurs­day afternoon, free of charge. Pic­tures will be taken of the building, including description and the nature and purpose of the Association, so that the William Penn will take its place in the community as a thriving business. Watch for this news in your local paper and make arrange­ments to come to help us celebrate. On the House Committee from Branch 36-V will be District Manager Lu­kacs, also Steve Csabi who has held many a post in the direction of the old Verhovay Home and is well versed in these matters. As soon as I know the names of additional mem­bers for this committee from branch­es 443-V, 511-V and 56-R, the in­formation to come from District Since the move to Lincoln Park for the William Penn headquarters, the consideration of where to hold the William Penn Junior Club meetings has become a serious problem. How­ever, Vice-President Julius Macker and District Manager Stephen Lu­kacs informed the membership that there are several well-located halls and clubs in the down-river com­munities which could serve our pur­pose until such a time as the addi­tion to the district office would be built — sometime in the near future. In my opinion, then, why not also hold future William Penn social ac­tivities in this neighborhood, which is so densely populated with a ma­jority of William Penn members, and With possibly a larger and more varied attendance than in past years ? The down-river communities are growing in leaps and bounds ,and the people out this way are looking for places to go and things to do. Let’s offer it to them ! The officers and branch members must encourage and cooperate with all the second and third, and yes, even fourth generation prospective members, who could become interest­ed in fraternal, sports, community and civic affairs. Even in the short time of the existence of the William Penn Junior Club there has been outstand­ing recognition and invaluable pub­licity to the Association and it must be further developed to include still iarger groups. The Junior Club is struggling along under the same handicap which all new projects seem to encounter, and this defiant attitude of non-acceptance must be minimiz­ed thereby encouraging the forming of other William Penn social, frater­nal and sports clubs in this area. * * * The moving process from the old office at 8005 W. Jefferson Avenue was explained by District Manager Lukacs, and it impressed me how little we really had to move — a desk, a metal storage cabinet, some ANNUAL STATEMENT January 1, 1956 to December 31,1956 I.
