Pittsburgh, Pa. - The So
ciety's policy toward bowling
which holds the interest of an
appreciable portion of our
membership will, for the
1866 season, remain as it
was in the past. The prof
fered aid is as liberal as the
Sports Fund can afford and
can scarcely be improved
upon.
Any Lodge or Nest group
composed of as few as four
a. teams of five (5) or more
bowlers each organized for
the purpose of conducting
Tenpin, Duckpin or Five Pin
activity anywhere in the Uni
ted States or Canada and
bowling to a definite schedule
of at least twenty (2O) weeks
will be recognized as a Croa-
tian Fraternal Union League.
Those leagues which COM
ply with the rulings set forth
by the C.F.U. Sports-Educa-
tional Department and for the
most part enunciated here
will upon proper application
be eligible for championship
trophies and awards made a.
vailable by the Croatian Fra
ternal Union.
The application for official
sanction shall be made on a
prescribed form and this
within sixty (60) days after
the league has started func'
tioning for the 1866 sea
son. Accompanying the sane
ton application, which in
cludes a complete list of ev
cry league bowler, will be {
copy of the league constitu
ton and the bylaws.
In line with the definite
purpose of promoting sports
as a venture for furtherins
the Society, no league no
comprised entirely of C.F.U
Lodges and Nests will rat
this sanction. A league fail
ing to qualify in this respec
and failing to report tn
weekly activities regularl..
will become ineligible for tro
phies and awards and, in tn
case of Nest league and bowl
ers, for financial aid also.
The Croatian Fraterna
Union will reimburse eacl
Junior who rolls in a c. F. [
sanctioned league or an indie
pendent, but sanctioned team
to the extent of five cent
($.O5) per game. The Direc

Edward Hreljac, the young
er Of the two, has gained
more recognition, this being
the second straight year that
he has copied the mems class
A singles championship.
Our youthful star Eddie is
the son of Mato and Branka
Hreljac, members of Lodge
618 of Creighton Mines, On
tario, who came from the
towns Mavric and Kricina of
Hrvatsko Primorje.
Eddie Hreljac has three
brothers and a sister in Lodge
618 and an older brother and
a younger sister in Nest sos
of Creighton Mines. Eddie
Hreljac, born March 1889 in
Creighton Mines, also is a
member of Nest sos and at
present enrolled for his fourth
year in the Copper Cliff High
School.
Walter Saftic also claims
Creighton Mines as his birth
place, having first seen the
light of day there February
1887. He is the son of Mirko
and Augustine Saftic and
with his parents a member of
Lodge 618 in Creighton
| Mines. Walter currently is liv-
ing away from home in To-
ronto, where his employment
has taken MN.

fore March 1, 1852, but in
three years diligence and
proWess has marked his sud-
den rise in Canadian Junior
badminton circles. His train
ing under Coach Ev Staples,
which included Walter Saftic
too, at the Inco Club in
Creigton moved him to the
semi-finals in 1858. It was
Walter Saftic, his team mate.
who put him out of further
play that year.
The following year in 1854
in Toronto, Eddie surprised
all hands by winning the class
"B" championship. Most OBJ
servers while recognizing his
championship caliber had fig
ured him at least two years
away from a title.
But imagine their astonish'
ment in the earlier part OF
1855 when our Croatian Jun
: ior made a clean sweep of the
class "A" championships. He
is still eligible for three years
of class "B" competition.

In Which Ia Drowned

BALTIMORE. Aug. 20 (spe-
ciaD-A Coast Guard Board Of
Inquiry will begin investigating
here Monday the sinking Of the
schooner Levin j. Marvel In
Chesapeake Bay August u.
Fourteen vacationers aboard

ship foundered in gales Of Hur-
ricane Connie on North Beach,
Md. Capt. John II. Mechling,
his three crewmen and nine pas
sengers survived.
The Coast Guard board will
seek to determine whether
was involved In the
sinking Of the Marvel. which was
on the last leg Of q five-day
cruise around the bay. The board
viii convene at 9 am. in the
Chamber Of Commerce building
here.
Subpoenaes Issued
The captain. the crewmen
and some Of the surviving pas
sengers are among the witnesses
who have been subponenaed to
testify at the public inquiry.
Representative Landlord,
Democrat of Maryland, in whose
district the sinking occurred,
said he has requested a tram
script Of the PROCEEDINGS. He
said he plans to introduce legis-
lation In the next session Of
Congress to give the Coast Guard
authority to inspect passenger
carrying schooners such as the
Marvel.
Coast Guard ofncials have said
they have authority to inspect
all power craft, but no provision
Is made in law for inspecting
sailing vessels Of less than TOO
gross tons. The Marvel displaced
loS COQS.
Coast Guard Thwarted
A. W. Kabernagel. captain of
the Port Of Baltimore, tried a
year ago to stop the use Of the
for carrying passengers
until it passed inspection. He
said he was concerned because
the old schooner had rubbed
bottom twice during the sum-
mer Of 1854 because Of leaks in
her hull.
One Of the surviving passen-
gers to testify is Miss Nancy
20, of 1900 Connecticut
avenue NV, Washington. The
other % passengers in the sink
ing were from New York, New
Jersey, Connecticut and North
