Obad had outstanding assis-
tants in Kaye Petrucela, Nick

Ed Bailly.
In the writer's opinion, the
climax was still to come and
it did until 1890 when we
were entertained by the best
band that I have ever heard.
I don't usually dance, but that
evening I participated in ev-
cry dance innovation on the
menu from a polka to that
Mexican favorite the La Ras-

1t is hoped that through
this narrative, the reader, not
necessarily a Californian, has
been able to feel the spirit of
good fellowship and frater-
nalism that prevailed during
the three days we spent to-
gether as the result of the 9Th
California Tournament. The
tourney was basically spon-
sored by the Sports Commit
tee of the Central Committee
of Northern California LODI
ges, but the three San Fran
cisco lodges 81, 876 and 900,
because of the advantages
which proximity furnished,
supplied the manpower and
the others cooperation ne

a bit you can rest assured
that things went smoothly
and that the pen was welded
a bit longer because Of the
high spirited success attend

Home Office Duxers
Lower Boom On Season

ly, but nevertheless, we find
ourself reporting on the final
outcome and seasonal highs
of the Home Office League.
The 1857 champions were
the Hearts, who were un-
seated as the second half
leaders since the first session
of February. Just where their
power came will remain a
mystery for they were not
much of a contender in the
first half, leaving that title
to the Trumps.
However in the champion
ship roll-off they flashed an
opening game of 655 pins for
four bowlers, the lowest score
in that game being a $50
game by Mary Abranovic,
who incidentally in the next
two games when the Hearts
settled down to Home Office
no1malcy still rolled the high
est game, a 131, among her
mates.
The best individual series
in the championship games
was a 156-15O-432 by Marie
Sekel. Alack, it had no re-
sponse among the Trumps,
who perhaps missed the
championship which was not
beyond their reach in the two
final games.
Eleven bowlers had perfect
attendance, four missed but
one lane session. Seven league
members hit in the 5 digits
brackets, namely they were

Tony Ivanetich, tournament
chairman, opened the Victory
Banquet by a stirring well
come, ending - "We appreci-
ate the great spirit of frater-
nal sportsmanship that each
and every one of you has DEM
onstrated during the last two
days y. A number of other
speakers followed brother
Ivanetich. Sports Director of
the Central Committee, Peter
Obad, revealed a movement in
Northern California that the
Committee should charter a
bus for its bowlers - five to
ten teams - to participate in
next years st. Louis Nation
al C.F.U. Tournament.
George Glavas, president of
the tournament sponsoring
the Central Committee, also
welcomed the bowlers and
guests and added: "T h e
events that took place the
last two days at the bowling
alleys, at the Polka Party,
and here this evening, are
true exemplifications of good
fellowship among us and
while this spirit prevails our
Society will grow bigger and
bigger.
Brother Ivanetich and his
assistant, yours truly, called
upon others for speeches,
namely Luka Pecel, grand
chairman of last years Los
Angeles tourney, George Ku-
relich, the vivacious chairman
of the 1858 event in Los An
geles, Milan Popovich, the
staunch chairman of San
Jose's event of three years
ago, and Chris Radovan, the
ever co-ordinative just retir-
ing president of our Central
Committee - all of whom
expressed hopes and desires
that events like this must be
had for the best interest of
our Society.
Then the third Vice-Presi-
dent of the Union, and official
representative to the Tourna-
ment, Matt Kovacevich, after
expressing his gratitude and
thanks and those of Mrs. Ko.
vacevich said: "You people in
Northern California have
really captured our hearts
with your hospitality. Wei
never forget it, and we'll try
to match you at next years
tournament in Los Angeles
In the meantime, let's al

The final speaker at the
Banquet was brother Johl
Ovcarich, Supreme Secretary
of tie Sick Benefit Depart
