Croatian Day Is
Natl. Institution
Praise Heaped On
West Penn ESL'S

PITTSBURGH - Croatian
Day is twenty-six years old.
It was in 1882 that it took
it's bow as a day set aside,
once each year, to further
the spirit of fraternalism a
mong the Croatians of West
ern Pennsylvania.
1t further perpetuates
our great and illustrious
Croatian heritage.
The quarter century Of it's
existence have been dynamic
and eventful years. From a
mere handful, the Croatian
Day Committee has grown in
to a substantial force Of Ame-
rican-C -Croatians planning to-
gether, working together and
growing together.
Teamwork, Cooperation
The men and women of the
Croatian Day Committee have
withstood trial and crisis and
can boast of a record Of unin-
terrupted accomplishment.
This was made possible
by a resourcefulness and
determination that has ami
mated the entire CrOatian
Day Committee and demon
strated the spirit of team
work, which is it's greatest
strength.
Throughout it's existence,
the Croatian Day Committee
was beset by periods of dis

in Pittsburgh a hardy group
of young men and women rep
resentatives of the English
Speaking Units of our organ
ization in Western Pennsylva-
MIA, there to preside over the
birth of a national Croatian
Day.
We cannot forget those
unselfish members of the
committee who worked tire
lessly in order that this day
would be more successful
than the previous one.
They were the rank and
file of our members from the
various English Spe a k in g
units, who without any remu-
neration spent their own
money and gave many hours
of their time in the promo
ton of the day that thou
sands Of people might come to
pay homage to all that is good
in the name - Croatian.
From Coast To Coast
Moreover, no expense was
spared in the committees ef-
forts in bringing to our people
on this day the finest enter
tainment available.
We have engaged tambur-
itza groups from sunny Cali
fornia to the bustling metro
polls of New York, from the
Pacific to the Atlantic. There
is, also, no doubt that from
an artistic and entertainment
standpoint the day has proved
successful and the Kenny
wood Park officials conserva-
lively estimate that over
1000 people are attracted to
Croatian Day each year.
Croatian Day each year
is a day for the kiddies and
each year they are given a
conspicuous place on the

program, thus building re-
spect and love for the Gel
ebration in the hearts and
minds of Croatian Youth.
1t is also a day for Mother
and Dad and for Grandmother
and Grandfather, because it
means a chance once each
year to see friends and rela-
tives from the Homeland and
also to sit and watch a pro-
gram that approaches perfect
ness in the rendition of auth
entic Croatian dancing and
singing.
Star Studded Program

Committee has come up with
