How to make news by stress

Gertrude S. Carraway. news

hard to make headlines by

as president general Of the
Daughters of the American
Revolution three years ago.
But I'm not one Of those
who believe that any publicity,
whether it's bad or not, Is
better than none" she ex-
planned last week.
So she launched her admin

A total of 277 awards were
presented the first year and
the number more than doubled
the following year when 638
were awarded. The TIC pre-
Sented in 1885 brought the
grand total to 1884.
Actually, I wasn't con-
sciously thinking of the news
value of the awards when we
started the program" Miss
Carraway said.
However. this project alone
has resulted in numerous

Also a newsmaker has been
the Society's promotion of
February as American History
Month. The OAR started
StreSsing the observance in
1854 and it was proclaimed by
nine Governors in 1855. This
year official proclamations
were issued in 81 States and
the District of Columbia. Miss
Carraway's native North Caro-

powerful subordinate affiliate
of the Society, bro. Kubik is
at present Parliamentary of
Beaver County and a man Of
considerable prominence on
the County's political levels.
Bro. Kubik was elected
to office in November of
1855 on the Democratic
ticket and has since gone
on to win the admiration
and deep respect of all who
come in contact with his
office.
A leader in every sense of
the word, bro. Kubik first
sought election to the office
he now holds in 1851. AL
though he lost, he made such
a fine showing his first time
out" that he attracted a fol-
lowing which was to elevate
him to office four years later.
Bro. Kubik is the first
American Of Croatian descent
ever to rise to such political
prominence in Beaver County
and ranks as the "dika and
ponos' in the eyes of all who
know him personally.

Twenty American, Canadian Students
Selected By Society's Supreme Board
As Deserving OF $4,000 Scholarships

PITTSBURGH - The decision of the Su-
preme Board of Directors rendered at it's
March, 1856, sessions, wherein it was decided
to donate 20 Scholarships of 100000 each to
the most deserving students who submit such
applications to the Home Office, was carried
out by said Body at its September. 1856,
meeting.
A total of 40 applications were received in
all from all parts of the u. S. and Canada, and
it was a very difficult task to screen the 20
most deserving students.
A screening committee of 3 members was
selected by the Board, which was comprised
of the Supreme President, brother Mandich;
President of the Board of Trustees, brother
Skrtich and our Legal Counsellor, brother
Servov. The above committee very carefully
examined all applications and took into con-
sideration all the information submitted by
the applicant.
Upon the conclusion of their decisions,
the following 20 applicants were chosen as re-
cipients of the $4,000 Scholarship awards
for this year, which the Supreme Board &C.
copied and approved unanimously:
Rudolph William Pavich
10. ..... Matthew J. Pavlovich
Michael j. Marlnak

We know and realize that the applicants
who were not considered at this time will be
greatly disappointed, but it must be remem-
bered that this is a continuous program and
that there is always next year to look for
ward to.
AS was stated earlier, the committee had
a very difficult assignment and, under the cir
cumstances, we feel that they did a wonder
full job.
One final reminder: - All of the above
students must submit a copy of their entrance
papers from the University or College which
they are attending, since all the checks will
be mailed directly to the University or Col
lege and not to the student.
Should any of said Students fail to re-
ceive entrance into their respective schools,
their Scholarship Award shall be automatic
ally cancelled.

pave the way for further Re-
publican successes.
ut Is q healthy sign that Dem
ocrats always feel free to dis
agree with each other and their
leaders, as we do today. But
more important to bear in mind

of the 84th Congress under

fundamental issues as disability

cal research, flood insurance,

trade-where previous Demo-
cratic Congresses with a larger
majority and q Democrat in
the White House have failed"

Senator Kennedy said he can
testify from having campaigned
with Senator johnson through
out Texas that few men could
have done more or hit harder
to strive for a Democratic vic
tory"
I'VE must, therefore. cast aside
unnecessary doubts and dissen-
sion," Senator Kennedy added

and: "expend our efforts on q
forward looking legislative rec.
ord under our present leader
ship. and on the decisive party
victories that can be ours in
1858 and 1860"
The Kennedy statement came
as somewhat Of a surprise to
observers here who recalled
views attributed to him at q
meeting in Worcester. Mass. two
days after the election. Senator
Kennedy was quoted at that time
as predicting mounting bitter
ness between the Northern lib
erals and the Southern con-
Servatives in the new Congress,
despite the fact the Democrats
kept control of Congress. He
was quoted also at the time as
saying the Democrats tried to
compromise on the civil rights
issue and lost part of the Negro
vote.

Senator Kennedy said he was

Behind Party Leaders

The young New Highlander.
who came close to winning his
party's vice presidential nominal
ton this year, singled out Senate
Majority Leader johnson of
Texas for special words of praise.
He said the success of the Demo-

Johnson's leadership. And he
added: I'VE can achieve more
progressive legislation united be-
hind our present congressional
leadership than under any alter
native choice"
Tied to Recent Moves
His statement was regarded
by political observers here as
a check to recent indications
that Northern liberals may chal-
lenge the Southern leadership
which usually prevails in Con-
|gress when the Democrats are
in control.
One such challenge already is
brewing in the effort of some
