SIX “BUY” FIVE MEMBERSHIP CAMPAIGN PICKING UP MOMENTUM

Tournament Administrator and National Controller John Sabo reports that well over a hundred teams and over six hundred bowlers will participate in the annual national event to determine the new champions.

The Thunderbowl Lanes, 4200 Allen Road, Allen Park, Michigan, will be the scene of the bowling contest. Team Events will be rolled on Saturday, May 29, the first squad bowling at 9:00 A.M., while the second squad will roll at 12:00 noon. Doubles and Singles will be rolled on Sunday, May 30 beginning at 10:00 A.M., and every two hours thereafter until the last ball is rolled. National President Elmer Charles will officially open the tournament with the rolling of the first ball Saturday morning. As soon as the regular bowling schedules are prepared and the prize list is made up each bowler will be forwarded a copy.

Hotel room reservation cards already have been mailed to each bowler, as well as to our branch managers. Every bowler should make his room reservation as early as possible, mailing the card directly to the Statler Hilton Hotel, 1565 Washington Boulevard, Detroit, Michigan 48231. A reprint of the room reservation card is elsewhere in this issue for use in case anyone was missed.

The social highlight of the Memorial Day week end is the FABULOUS DINNER and DANCE PARTY which will be held Saturday, beginning at 6 P.M., May 29. The sumptuous dinner will be followed by the greatest array of professional musical talent ever presented at a William Penn affair. Also in this edition are pictures and write-ups of some of these stars. Dancing to the melodies of Ziggy Bela’s 12-piece orchestra will follow the dinner and entertainment. The dinner menu will be:

Fresh Fruit Cocktail — Assorted Relishes — Roast Sirloin Butt, of Beef — Au Gratin Potatoes — Fresh Lima Beans Au Beurre — Fresh Tossed Green Salad — Marco Polo Dressing — Baked Alaska — Coffee — Rolls and Butter.

There will be many surprises during the evening. Hospitality rooms will be open, notably the Detroit Hospitality Room where everyone will be welcome.

For the Saturday evening of dining, dancing, entertainment and frolicking, there will be an admission charge of $6.50 if the ticket is purchased prior to May 24, 1965. After that the admission will be $7.00. Tickets should be purchased in advance to assure seating. Many bowlers will be dinner guests of the William Penn, having officially participated in the Six “Buy” Five in Sixty-Five Membership Campaign. In the Detroit area tickets may be purchased at the William Penn District Office, 3920 Fort Street Lincoln Park. Elsewhere see your branch manager, or call at, or write to the Home Office, 436 Fourth Avenue, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15219.

The Six “Buy” Five Membership Campaign orbitted into space during the month of March. The momentum of the campaign is reaching a fever pitch. There is still plenty of time to have your friends and relatives become members of the William Penn. You, too, may need additional insurance — for protection — educational purposes — or for investment with protection. The William Penn is the Association with a big heart and welcoming arms. Join today in promoting our Membership Campaign so that everyone may benefit. Please visit any William Penn office, or telephone for details. Our William Penn men are always ready to assist you.

Star Attraction of the Fabulous William Penn Dinner and Dance Party - May 29,1965

Biri Szondi will be the featured female vocalist of the topnotch professional entertainment program at the Statler Hilton Hotel, Detroit, Michigan. Miss Szondi, a soprano, has been engaged to thrill our bowlers and other members with her cultured and beautiful voice. She is the former prima donna of the Hungarian Theatre and the Budapest Operatic Theatre. She has sung the lead roles in all the Franz Lehar’s and Emery Kalman’s operettas. Her performance, especially in the Merry Widow and Prince Bob operettas, gained her the title of “Star of the Hungarian Theatre.”

FEATURED MALE VOCALIST OF WILLIAM PENN FABULOUS DINNER AND DANCE PARTY

Andrew Vincze, today’s finest Hungarian singer with a rich baritone voice will be featured with Miss Biri Szondi in a program of fine professional entertainment which has been put together by the Tournament and Fellowship Days Administrator. He has appeared in operettas and other musicals all over the country, and this will be a repeat performance for the master of Hungarian, English and other nationality songs. He was so well-received at our 1964 Fabulous Dinner and Dance Party in Pittsburgh, Pa. that many members wanted him back for this year’s program.
