Tammies Due April 5
In Chicago For Show
At 9Th Street Theatre

CHICAGO - The annual
visit the Duquesne University
Tamburitzans make to Chi
cago is no news to their ma
ny and loyal followers.
Once again we are pleased
to announce their appearance
at the Eighth Street Theatre
on April 5 at 800 pm.
On a recent tour of the
South, the Duquesne Tambu-
ritzans were received with
open arms and enthusiastic
ovations wherever they
played.
They warmed the hearts
of those who are unable to
"drive to the nearest audi
torium" to see a Tammie
concert.
Those people will indeed re-
member with appreciation
their opportunity to witness
this wonderful group in ac-
ton - possibly a once in a
lifetime occasion for them.
Here in the Midwest we are
more fortunate. Year after
year they grace our Windy
City bringing with them re-
freshing music, youthful dan
ces, our delightful songs.
Throughout tn e United
States, Canada and Europe
they have established them
selves as the foremost expo
nents of folk music.
Perhaps we in the Chicago
area should follow the exam.
pie of our southern friends by
welcoming the Duquesne Uni.

open hearts and open arms.

May They Know Nothing But Happiness In Life
John Puskarich and Mary t. Doc Exchange Nuptia| Vows

McKEESPORT, Pa. - The
members of CFU Lodge A
witnessed a very happy and
long awaited day on October
II, 1858, when bro. John
Puskarich was united in mar
riage with Miss Mary E. Do
ric during a Nuptial Mass at
Sacred Heart Church, Nc
Keesport.
Bro. Puskarich is the son
of Joseph G. Puskarich of 300
Euclid Avenue, and the new
Mrs. Puskarich is a daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Peter Doric of
627 Versailles Avenue.
Officiating during the
marriage ceremony and
Mass were Rev. BOniface
Soric and Rev. Bruno Nizic,
Assistant Pastor.
The bride was attired in a
long white gown of chantilly
lace and nylon tulle over skin
ner satin, with an illusion
yoke, winged collar, and long
pointed sleeves.
Her fingertip veil fell from
a cloche of matching lace and
tulle and she carried a prayer
book topped with stephanotis,
and ivy.
Mrs. Frank Androvic, as
her sisters matron of honor,
wore a long gown of water
rose nylon sheer and net over
taffeta. Her dior bow caught
a circular face veil and she
carried a triangle cascade of
pink and white feathered car
nations and ivv.
The bridesmaid, Miss Lou
ise Soboleski, was similarly
attired in water cotillion and

future.
Only One Complaint
While bro. Zivitz Waxed en-
thusiastic throughout n e
greater part of his recent let
ter to this desk, he did have
one complaint to get off his
chest.
He deplored the lack of in
terest in monthly meetings of
Lodge 720.
Bro. Zivitz thinks this
strange in view of the fact
that the Lodge is financial
ly well off, has it's own
Bowling League, has con-
stantly forged ahead in
membership, and has "no
feuds going" to the best of
his knowledge.
He is hopeful that this sit
uation will right itself during
the remainder of 1859 and ap-
peals to every member of
Lodge 720 to attend the
monthly meetings held the
End Sunday of each month on
the third floor of the Croa-
tan Social and Glee Club
Jadran.
In the meantime, we wish
bro. Zivitz smooth sailing as
he continues his pursuit of the
Society's Membership Cam
paign Grand Prize Award of
a 1860 visit to Yugoslavia. He
has until Dec. 81, 1859, to
make the grade.

Supporters Thanked
At this time we would like
to thank all our many friends
who have donated for the up
keep Of the program through

donations you have shown
that you approve our policy
and enjoy cur program.
It is proper to mention at
this time that the larger part

Next Rally March 20
The next conference of our
organization will be held in
the Croatian Home in Mather
and our C.F.U. Lodge 633 will
be the host Lodge. This con-
ference will be held the last
Sunday of March or March
29th.
AS in previous years our
Conferences will be held every
three months and we will ro-
tate from one Croatian Home
to another; thus every lodge
will have an opportunity to
have a conference in it's To-
cality.
AS we have said many
times, it does not cost our
lodges anything to belong
to our United Lodges; all
we ask is a little coopera-
| ton and a little interest in
the Croatian Fraternal
! Union.
Each lodge is entitled to 4
delegates, so once again, if
your lodge does not belong,
we urge you to elect 4 dele
gates at your next regular
meeting and join us in 4
worthwhile undertaking.

Juvenile Court
StatusCIouded.
By New Ruling

The current judicial con-
fusion over the legal status of
Juvenile Court was illustrated
once again yesterday in a de-
cision handed down by the Mu-
nieipal Court Of Appeals.
It stated. in effect, that Ju-
venile Court is not criminal
court and that the usual con-
stitutional safeguards guaran-
teed adults charged with crimes
do not apply.
The three-page decision held
that failure to advise youthful
defendants of their right to
counsel does not, consequently,
constitute a denial Of due pro-
cess.
The decision would seem to
settle once and fos all the ques-
ton Of just how legal"
Juvenile Court proceedings
should be.
But 1t doesn't.
The u. s. Court Of Appeals
for the District held three years
ago that juvenile offenders had
the right to counsel. and that
they had to be informed Of this
right. In fact, the court in this
decision-the Shioutakon case
actually reversed the opinion
of the Municipal Court of APP
peals, which had taken the
same position it took yesterday.
Right Made Known
AS a matter of course, there
fore, Judge Orm w. Ketcham
has been informing youngsters
who come before him of their
right to counsel. Quite clear
", he must continue this prac-
tice; the U. S. Court of Appeals
stated its decision was bind
ing from and after May II,
1886"
How could the Municipal APP
pellate body ignore this 1856
decision yesterday? The judges
said it did not apply, since it
was based on an Interpretation
Of the Juvenile Court Act,
while their opinion is based on
constitutional grounds.
Juvenile Court officials
frankly admit they are in a
muddle. Several cases still
pending in higher courts will,
they hope. resolve the issue.
Another Case
To give another illustration
OF the current situation. the
officials point to a 1857 de-
cision of the U. S. Court of
Appeals in a case regarding
custody of a minor. In this
one, the judges differentiated
between delinquency and de-
tendency cases. Youngsters
involved in the latter proceed
ings. they said. are not en-
titled to counsel.
The decision made a distinc-
ton in types of cases handled
by the court which does not
exist. the officials noted, in the
original Juvenile Court Act.
Yesterdays opinion con-
cerned q 19-year-old boy who
appeared in Juvenile Court in
1855 on q yoking charge. He
admitted the offense and was
committed to the National
Training School for Boys.
Subsequently. last December,
he claimed he had been de-
MED the right of counsel at
the original hearing.
Judge Ketcham denied his
motion to have the commit
ment set aside. He noted that
the case occurred before the
Shioutakon decision; he also
noted the position of the Mu-
nicipal Court Of Appeals on the
matter.
1t was an appeal of Judge
Ketcham's decision which LED
to yesterdays opinion.
