Great Year Ahead

OUR tcen-age members will be glad to
~ hear that the Croatian Fraternal Uni
.on's Supreme Board last week authorized
the staging in 1855 of Junior Convention
in conjunction with the 10th Anniversary
of the Junior Order Department itself.
A Special Membership Campaign will be
held during the first part of the year ahead,
with a certain quota Of Points to be set
aside as the goal every boy and girl will
have to reach in order to qualify as Dele
gates to the Junior Convention. 1t is hoped
that the Convention will take place at the
Children's Home of the Society in Des
Plaines Illinois.
Details pertaining to the Special Junior
Campaign and Convention are to be ironed
out by the Executive Board of the Croatian
Fraternal Union prior to the dawn of 1855
and, Of course, will be given wide publicity
in both the Official Organ and the Junior
Magazine.
In handing down their decision of last
Friday, September 10, the members of the
Supreme Board assured the members of
the Croatian Fraternal Union, both here
anu III Sdlldud, llldl lJOO VIII UC d Itdl
OF Acton"' for their Society.
Indeed it will be one of great activity
for even now many are looking forward to
the Society's 9th Quadrennial Convention at
Philadelphia in September of 1865.
With the Junior Campaign and Conven-
ton preceding the opening of the Philadel-
phia sessions, 1855 cannot but be one of
the greatest years in the history of the
Society and bring it to widespread attention
throughout America and Canada.
Above all, it will be year during which
every member of the Croatian Fraternal
Union, both young and old, can come to
reap honors in his or her own right.

With Best Wishes

\A/E cannot help but extend very best
w wishes for success to the new Farrell,
Pa Junior Tamburitza Ensemble which
will make its important concert debut on
Sunday, September 49,
Comprised of eleven boys and six girls,
all members of the Societvs Nest 100, and
ranging in age between II and 16 years,
this group Of young artists owes its eXis-
tence to the moral and material support of
Croatian Fraternal Union Lodge 1876 Nest
100, the Croatan-American Civic Club, and
other individuals in Farrell.
All deserve praise for taking such an
interest in the musically inclined youth in
their midst and making possible the or
ganization of the new orchestra.
In these times of atomic power, Jet
planes and other marvellous discoveries and
inventions, the launching of youthful tam
buritza ensemble is certainly something to
greet with pride
Rare indeed have become youngsters
willing to be taught the tamburitza arts.
Wiling to help perpetuate the centuries old
culture of our people, willing to appear in
public proudly playing the music and sing
ing the songs of their forefathers
Small wonder then, that we have seen
fit to editorialize the debut of our Farrell
Junior Tamburtza Ensemble!

We Weren't Asked

\A/ /E learned with regret Monday morn
w ing, September 13 that only S24 500
was pledged during the 52-hour telethon
conducted by Pittsburgh's Educational TV
Station WQED to raise funds for the pur-
pose Of keeping the Station operating.
While more pledges were expected after
the early morning report of September Is,
the fact remained that WQFD was miles
away from the S35O,OOO it set as the
amount of money it needed to stay in busi-
ness as an educational tee-vee outlet The
difference between $24,500 and S350,0OO

gods to get them into the act without wor-
rying about the end result.

To the best of our knowledge, the Home
Office of the Croatian Fraterna Union of
America in the Oakland District of Pitts
bureh was never asked by Station WQED
to publicize this important 52-hour tclethon
appeal in its powerful Official Organ.
1t seems strange to us that the Croatian
Frateral Union-the spokesman for thou
sands of Croats, Serbs, Slovenes and other
Slavs in Western Pennsylvania-was not
among the first to be asked by WQED to
help it in its hour Of need by appealing to
the Society to use its Official Organ to
urge its readers to support a worthy cause
Had the Editors been contacted, directly
or indirectly both Sections of the Zajed-
ni6ar would have gone to bat weeks ago
to call upon the Western Pennsylvania
members of the Croatian Fraternal Union
to watch the 52-hour telethon and contrib
ute whatever they could to the Station.
This admittedly, is criticism. But it
comes in the form of friendly, constructive
criticism from the office of one sincerely
interested in keeping WQED a sound edu-
cational institution
