Society Prepared
To Provide PLAYS

Pittsburgh, Pa. - Over the
recent months we have re-
ceived requests from scatter
ed sections of the country for
Croatian plays. One Of these
came from Laguna Beach,
California, another from
Lodge ITO of Gary, Indiana.
Others came from Lodge 25
of McKeesport, Pa, from
Lodge 1926 of Farrell, Pa, and
the latest from Etna, Lodge
No. 4.
The enacting of a play,
Croatian or English, is good
for creating another sidelight
to our Lodge life. The prac-
tees leading to the day when
the general public sees the
play afford the members Of
the cast a medium of gath
ering oftener than the once
a month Lodge meetings.
Assuming a part in the cast
should fall to younger people
in the Lodge rather than, as
is often the case, the older
members. A part in the play
may give some American or
Canadian born member an
opportunity to all the better
acquaint himself or herself
with the mother tongue, Gro
atian. Even taking part in an
English language play has its
merits and fits we'll into fra
ternal aspects.
For plays to embellish your
Lodge or Nest social pro-
gram, we ask that you write
to the Sports Educational De-
partment at the Home Office
where same arc available
with the compliments of the
Croatian Fraternal Union. In
many cases we can give you
sufficient copies of the play
YOU select to make unneces-
sary any transcribing by you
locally.

Best Wishes To Popular Young Couple

might add that the BRIDES
sister, Mary Cherskov, who
claims dress designing as one
of her talents, designed and
made the dresses for all the
attendants.
Following the marriage ce-
remony which took place at
900 AM, the wedding party,
close family friends and rela-
tives enjoyed a breakfast at
the brides home. In the eve
ming a large reception was
held at the Serbian Hall for
all friends of the happy
couple.
The festivities began with
a delicious buffet dinner, fol-
lowed by dancing to Hal
Jones and his Orchestra, un-
til the approach of midnight.
1t was truly a lovely wedding
all the way through, with all
guests absorbing the happi-
ness which radiated from the
happy couple. Sometime dur
ing the gaiety Albina and
Leonard slipped away from
the crowd and left for their
honeymoon trip to British
Columbia.
Albina and Leonard are
now settled in their modern
new, home at 7701-46th
Avenue South, overlooking
our scenic Lake Washington.
We of Harmony" Lodge
wish sister and brother Har-
rod a continuation of the
health and happiness which
they now possess, and may
their future years be blessed
with the addition of several
prospective junior nest men,
bers to make their happiness
complete.

ly young miss, Annmarie Pc
tro. This enrolment brings a
total Of five of the Petro
family now affiliated with the
"Zora" Lodge, with one more
youngster still housed in the
ranks of the Junior Nest.
Annmarie graduated from
the Girls Catholic Central
High School where she was
very active and an outstand-
ing student. Her plans at the
present time center around
continuing her education at
Marygrove College where she
will major in the Home Eco
nOmicS course.
A very ambitious young Ia
dy, Annmarie has worked af-
ter school and during her
summer vacations. She is ve-
ry fond of sports too, par
ticularly tennis and SWIM
ming. However, she has not
neglected her womanly duties
and loves to bake, cook and
sew and one day hopes to use
all these talents to- advantage
in rearing her own family.
We are confident that Ann
marie will follow the example
of her parents and be whole
heartedly enthusiastic about
her affiliation with the Gro
atian F'raternal Union.
Her father, Steve Petro,
has been an ardent worker
for the Lodge and has served
on many committees, notably
the Sick Committee. Her
mother, Rose, has never turn
ed down a call from the
Lodge when help was needed.
In behalf Of our entire
membership we say, good
luck, Annmarie, and may you
always be as proud to be one
Of us as we are to have you
affiliated with our Society.

welcome sister Grace AngOttl
into our midst.
Grace is the daughter of
Fred and Ann Borshow, long
time residents of Cokeburg.
She was born on March 9,
1886, in Wheeling, West Vir-
ginia, and enrolled in Junior
Nest 122 on July 2, 1947.
Sister Angotti graduated
from Ellsworth High School
on May %, 1854, being hon
ored as the salutatorian of
her class. We are proud to
state that she is the very
first Of our fraternal family
to achieve such high honors.
Our new recruit attended
the Third CFU Junior Con-
vention held in Washington,
D. c., in 1850, representing
Nest 122. This was also the
first time our Nest was ever
represented in such an endea-
vor, and it was an outstand-
ing achievement for both our
Nest and sister Angotti in re-
cruiting the necessary 40 new
junior members to qualify for
the honor.
Grace comes from a frater-
minded family, her parents
being affiliated with, our
Lodge 354 and her sister Vic
ky still in the ranks of Nest
122. Her father was very ac-
tive in the years the Lodge
opened its Home and served
as the first club secretary,
a position he held for two
consecutive years.
Bro. Borshow is the gen.
eral Assistant Mine Foreman
of Mine go in Cokeburg. His
wife Ann served as a trustee
of the Club for many years
and it was through her un-
firing efforts that the Lodge
staged the parties and affairs
which helped us attain the
goal of owning our own
Home.
Sister Borshow was also
one of the original organizers
of the Cokeburg Kolo Group
and served as the first treas
urer for many years.
Getting back to our new
recruit, we're pleased to re-
port that Grace was married
to Richard Angotti of Ellis
worth June 10Th, last, and in
behalf of the officers and
members we would like to
wish her and her husband all
the success and happiness in
the world.
