FINAL CAIN PARK
PERFORMANCE

Next week Cain Park Theatre
will unveil it's final offering of
the season when the light opera
troupe presents the little-given
but tuneful and popular Sari by
Emerich Kalman.
Purported to be the story of
the Strauss of waltz fame,
Sari is set partly in Hungarian
gypsy camps, partly in gay
Paree during the last century.
Gypsy dances are being stag
ed by Tilda Morse, Cain Park's s
choreographer, who is also high
lighting the second act of the
opera with an authentic rep
resentation of original Partisan
can-can.
The many lovely melodies OF
Sari will be sung principally by
Gus Constantine, Angelica Man
cini, Fred Tyler, Bart Lange
and other favorites of Handel
Wedsworth's Light Opera Cain
Park Company.
Overall direction is by Han
del Wadsworth with William
D'Zomba assisting and set de-
signs by Gerald Gentle, Gains
Technical director. Sari will rur

Additional Statements by American
C|ergymen Now in Jugos|ovio

The representatives of Ameri-
can churches who are staying in
Jugoslavia, made the following
statement at Bled:
1--WE make the following state
ment because of widespread re-
ports in the press of the United
States that Archbishop Stepinac
is denied all religious privileges,
that he is suffering starvation
and is otherwise being mis-
treated.
I'm response to our requests
we were granted a visit with
Archbishop Stepinac at Lepogla-
va Prison, which we made today.
We conversed with Archbishop
Stepinac in his room through
members of our delegation who
speak French and German. In
response to questions, Arch
bishop Stepinac stated that his
food is good, he is comfortable
and he has been fortunate in
having had good health during
the time of his Imprisonment.
Two members of our delegation
were medical men, one from New
York and one from Paris. They
agreed that Archbishop Stepi-
nae looked in fit physical condi-
tion. In answer to a question by
DR.. Jean Nussbaum, General
Secretary of the international
Religious Liberty Association
with headquarters in Washing
ton, Archbishop Stepinac stated
that there were no restrictions
on his religious liberty in prison
He stated that he had a bible
in Creation and Latin, other
books and a portable typewriter
which he was using when we
interrupted him-and he cele'
brates Mass daily in specially
provided chapel next to his
J room, adding he considered this
his chief consolation.

stated, we can assert emphati

Due to my fault this article
is a week late. So sorry folks
but certain things came up.
Have a nice weekend at our
Home Coming Festival August
l., 2 and 3rd, folks? Good, we
sure do hope, we tried so hard
to make everyone enjoy a good
time, and if you didn't, blame
yourself!
The three big days consisted
of Street Dancing Friday mite
to 10 name Orchestras and, oh,
how everyone just wanted to
dance. I know you probably
found the street a little rough
on your soles and you probably
ran a shoemaker bill, but all in
all, wasn't it fun?!
The crowd was just grand for
Friday. The next two days were
better. You could not find one
another if lost. At this time
the Euclid Vets should give
credit to G.. Kraincic and E.
Eckert who announced through
out the Festival where so and so
can be located.
Honest, folks, during the three
days of the Festival people met
who hadn't seen each other in
years.
Numerous attendants remark
ed what a grand festival it was,
it being the biggest thing that
ever came to Euclid.
Several concessions were av-
ailable, such as special Fish
Pond and Pony Rider and a
Zepplin Slide for the Riddles,
while the older ones were being
entertained with concessions,
dancing, outdoor bowling, etc.

it was. decided that full speed

complete as much work as pos
sible this year. The cooler will
be the next item to receive at

secure sufficient money by loan

Brother Novak informed me
that an individual offered any
amount the committee would re-
quire, which offer was taken
up. The writer was also delegat-
ed by the committee to request
the Supreme Board at their Au-
gust meeting to give considera-
ton to a substantial donation.
After the meeting broke up
the writer and wife started to
line up the swing equipment,
then to dig the necessary holes
for the foundation. Brother
Sore, who has been one of the
individuals responsible for push
ing to completion much of the
work on the grounds, took pity
on us. He rounded up Tony
Kerze, President of Comrades
and Manager Of the Grounds to
mix the first batch of concrete.
He than spotted Bias Novak,
Rosie Jurman, representative
for the Strugglers and a few
more of the older members and
put them to work. The digging
was completed in no time. Broth
er Sore and the writer then
finished the pouring of the foot
ing. On Wednesday, the Roses,
Kerzes, Prijatels (Joe), John
Sore and Tony set the swings
in place and started the finished
concrete. Many thanks to Broth
