Dear Frances
Well, "Zavody" and the
"Slet" and one of the most won
derful vacations l have ever
had are over! / can't believe
it. The days just flew!!! 1t
was like a wonderful dream.
Frances, | shall never be a.
BILE to thank you enough for
your kindness when preparing
us for the meet. You were our
moral support, our battle cry
was Lets do our best to make
Frances happy. We can't dis
appoint her!" I'm afraid that
there was a little bit of the lat
ter disappointment, that is,
at that 10 on rings and 81 on
"prostna." | am offering no
alibi; I have none. Our "prost-
ma" should have been a "9.8",
for Title called a special re-
hearsal in our room from 8 to
II Thursday night to check
each girls performance. l am
thoroughly ashamed of myself,
despite Titles ever encourag-
ing. 81 think you all did a nice
job"
Our "spolecna" on Sunday,
were beautiful without a doubt
There was not a single error or
an ill-timed move. Everyone |
have met, either in my aunt's
store, in Sokol Stefanik, or in
Soldiers Field spectators, that
is) said that our "spolecna'
were the best that had been
witnessed at any "Slet" everu
Frances, I wish you could
have been with us, although /
know you have experienced
this many times. Do you re-
member that part of the 'prost-
ma when we first turn to the
right, then raise our arms side
ways over our heads to bring
them down in a large, then
small, a large, and a small cir
Gle again; and as we turned to
the right, the boys turned right
toward us doing the same
movements?
To me this was one of the
biggest thrills I have ever ex-
perienced = to be here on a
field with eight hundred girls
and boys from all over the u
nited States doing the same
movements in unison. Such
cooperation seemed to me to be
the acme of democracy. And
I was one of the eight hundred
participating! | am afraid a
few tears trickled down my
cheeks; | was not alone in this
respect. as I found out later.
We all were "misty-eyed"
when we first marched out and
stood at attention as the most
wonderful chorus sang "The
Star-Spangled Banner, "Kde
Domov Mdj', and INA Tatru
Sa Blyska."
Frances, | can never repay
you enough for encouraging
me to become a Sokolka. Ex-
periencing such feelings of
brotherhood and cooperation
among Sokols from all over the
u. S. is an experience everyone
is not fortunate enough to get.
When sitting in back of Hous-
ton, Texas. being thrown a.
mong Havlfcek Tyrs. or stand
ing next to Sokol Philadelphia,
the greeting INA Zdar" made
us one.
Even though, Frances, you
were not here, WE felt as if you
were. W. tried to remember
to keep our legs straight, to
leap when WE should, to take
smaller dance steps. to keep
our circle large and ROUND,
and to stick to our "znacky".
Really, if I may say so, | think
our "kola" and "skupiny" were
the ~prettiest - thanks to you
for making us ever conscious
of those oh - so important
details. I think you would have
been proud of us on Sunday.
Many, many thanks "ucitelko."
Zdar! Helen Xxx
