artistic element every bit as
important as the music and
dance selections themselves.
Efficiency .Personified
In the past few years, the
Duquesne University Tambur-
itzans have prided themselves
not only in playing the be-
loved old songs brought over
to America by the Slavic i'm
migrants in the past fifty
years, but in presenting and
correctly interpreting a wider
range of Balkan music, from
the primitive, dissonant songs
of the Dalmatian highlands
to the classical and semi-clas-
steal works of such exemplary
composers as Gotovac, Zajc,
Tijardovic, ETC., many Of
whom have been first intro
duced to American audiences
through Duquesne University
Tamburitzans' performances.
To prepare members for
their role as interpreters Of
Southern Slavic folk music
and dance, courses have been
initiated, within the frame
work Of the Tamburitzans,
for the study of the Serbo.

Besides this internal
phase, the Duquesne Uni
versity Tamburitzans have
become an efficient infor-
nation source for persons
throughout America who
are interested in preparing
theses, cultural programs,
folk art projects, etc.
Future plans of the Du.

Cleveland, Ohio - All our
"Zumberak" CFU Lodge 859
members are looking forward
to October 20, the day on
which the lodge marks it's
10Th Anniversary.
True, it is now common
place for a senior lodge to OBJ
serve it's 50th Anniversary,
but "Zumberak" represents
part Of the English-speaking
movement which was getting
under way about twenty-five
years ago. So it can be said
that Lodge $50 was among
the hardy pioneers in the gen.
GRAFTON which fathered the
English-speaking lodge.
The charter members are
still active, with the exception
of one. Just how did only
eight members attract 80
many followers to raise the
membership to a point of over
three hundred? That question
can best be answered by the
long string of social successes
which have been enjoyed by
the lodge.

Members Holding Matured Certificates
Urged To Contact Lodge Secretary

Sometime ago, we mailed our lodge secretaries special
forms DIVIDEND OPTION FOR MEMBERS HOLDING
FULLY MATURED CERTIFICATES.
These forms were to be filled out by all members who
hold fully matured certificates and who no longer are ac-
tive and do not make any contributions to the Society.
To date, the Home Office has not heard from a ma
jorty of members in this category.
The form in question gives a member the option of
receiving his dividend on a yearly basis, or to allow the
dividend to remain at the Home Office to be credited to
the members account.
Therefore, we urge all members who hold matured
certificates and do not make any contributions to the Soci-
ETY., to get in touch with your lodge secretary and mail us
the above form Immediately. Should any member fail to
do SO by October 31st, the Home Office will automatically
withhold all such dividends for a period of 5 years.
Your prompt attention and cooperation in this matter
will be greatly appreciated.

University. The purposes of
the Tamburitzans were, and
still are, to maintain scholar
ships for deserving students
at Duquesne University, and
to keep alive in America the
musical culture of the South

Proof of the organize
tons eminent success in
fulfilling the first purpose
is amply shown with a few
statistics. In their twenty
years, they have given
scholarship aid ~totaling to
more than a quarter-mil-
lion dollars to LAG students.
