that the program we have
mapped out meets with our
utmost satisfaction, and we
know that those who witness
it will thoroughly agree with
our optimism.
Promptly at 2::30 PM the
youngsters will take to the
stage and display their di-
versified talents for their
mothers and friends. From
seeing rehearsals of the vari-
Gus acts, we're convinced
that our kiddies will compare
favorably with any such
group in any colony, and we
are mighty proud of them.
Just as soon as the young
sters have entertained our
guests, sister Sylvia Niksic,
of Gary, Ind, a member of
the CFU Board of Trustees,
will have a few we'll chosen
words to impart to our audi
ence. You may rest assured
that your time here will be
we'll spent.
AS an added attraction we
have obtained permission to
feature that much discussed
film, "This Is Your Croatian
Fraternal Union!" and pre-
sent our people in this area
with their very first oppor-
tunity to see this outstanding
CFU project. Don't miss it
on any account!
At the conclusion of this
portion of our program, ta-
bles will be set up and a de-
licious supper served. All this
and shuffling afterwards, to
the tune of Johnny Petek and
his tamburitza ensemble.
That's about it, folks. This
for the paltry sum of fifty
cents admission fee. We, for
one, wouldn't miss out on the
biggest event of the year on
Mothers Day, Sunday, May
9th, at the Collins Meyer
Post. Will we see you there?

Hamilton, Ont. - All is in
readiness for the staging of
the 3rd Annual Mothers Day
Concert to be held at the Gro
attain Hall, 173 Beach Road,
on Sunday, May 9, at 8 Pm.
The concert will feature
our talented Junior Nest 397

play, all rendered by the
youngsters of our Nest.
Appearing on stage for the
very first time will be the
kolo dancers, all Nest men,
bers, who have been instruct
ed by our young and lovely
Mary Silkovich, who brought
these dance ideas with her
from Yugoslavia.
Representing our Burling-
ton members and friends will
be James Posavad and John
Josefik in an accordion duet.
Also appearing on the pro-
gram will be students of the
Baldwin School of Music.
Some of these are also affili-
ates of our Nest.
We have invited bro. Philip
Vukelich, Croatian Editor of
the "Zajednicar" to say a few
words in behalf of our great
Croatian Fraternal Union and
the Campaign for new men,
bers.
At the funfest there will be
several door prizes, an award
for the winning Nest 397
mother who must be present
in order to be eligible to COM
pete. The other prize will be
decided by those in atten-
dance.
Since this concert is being
staged for the benefit of our
general public, we are looking
forward to welcoming all our
members, parents and friends
on Sunday, May 9th, at the
Croatian Hall.

250 people jammed the Ran

in honor Of the Goth Ami

ternal Union Lodge 6. The
turnout far exceeded the

Detroit, Mich. - That to
which the entire bowling fra
ternity within our Society
looks up and forward to will
take place in Detroit, Mich
igan, during the four days,
May 6-7-8-9, 1854. We mean
nothing other than the goth
Annual Tenpin Tournament.
AS the sports classic that
it is, it draws both from those
who bowl as we'll as from
those who respect it as a tru-
ly national event. The Annual
Tournament draws attention
both within our ranks and
among the general public.
Mail reaching our d s k
proves this.
Governor Will Attend
In it has been wrapped two
decades of sacrifice by vari-
Gus and many individual
boWlers.
Among all other places
where they may have exhi-
bited their own individual
wares, we think that going
to the Croatian Fraternal
Union tourney has more at
tachment for those of our
keglers whom you will see in
the Motor City this weekend.
We have an entry of 1872
five-man teams. It represents,
as we have said, a sacrifice
as we'll as a chance where
they will pop off excess
energy.
Detroit to an extent, at
least in those circles where
we will vie and associate, will
be C.F.U. minded but only in
the best way. The highest

night at the Banquet.
Tourney To Be Filmed
Ours is a promotional role,
we hope only that the sched-
uling of events which was
our doing will leave you plen-
ty of time to see Detroit as
the native citizens would
have you look over their me-
tropolis.
Attesting to the fact that
it's national officers are in
terested in the sports desires
of a segment of it's member
ship is the news that this
tournament will be filmed
for a showing elsewhere long
after these four days will be
but a sweet memory.

More Than 100000 Veterans Enioy
Advantage of CT Insurance Plan

More than 1OO,OO6 vet
Grams have taken out ap-
proximately $3.50 million in
special post-Korea CT in
surance, Veterans Admin
stration announced. April
25 was the third anniver-
sary of the enactment of
Public Law %, 82nd Con-
gress.
Public Law % not only
provides automatic indemn-
ity coverage up to $4,000
against death in service and
generally for 100 days there
after, but also gives vet
Grams the opportunity to
buy special CT insurance
protection after separation
or discharge.
Generally, this post Ko-
rea insurance contains the
same provisions as National
Service Life. Insurance, or
World War II insurance,
except no dividends are pay
able and premium rates and
death payments are based
on d ifferent actuarial
tables. However, the vet
eran has the same choice of
beneficiaries and may elect
to have the proceeds paid in
one sum at his death or in
installments if ne prefers.
There are two types of
post-Korea insurance avail
able to those discharged
after April %, 1851.
The Tribune. [volume] (Roanoke, Va.) 1951-19??, 1954-05-08

The first is term insur-
ance, which may not be con-
verified to a permanent plan,
but may be renewed every
five years. To obtain this
special term insurance the
100 days after separation or
veteran must apply within
discharge. To date, more
than $4,000 such policies
with a face value of almost
1862 million have been is
sued.
The second type is avail
able only to veterans with
a service-connected disabil-
ity. This coverage is a spec
ial form of CT life insurance
on either term or perman-
ent plans, such as 20 or 80
payment life, ordinary life,
and if not totally disabled,
on the endowment plans.
Application for this type
of insurance must be made
within one year from the
date the VA determines the
veterans disability is service
connected.
To date 5000 policies of
this type worth $50 million
have been issued to disabled
veterans.

OF course, it is the Democrats

stupidity of the Republicans. There
is plenty of room for difference of
