Scrubs In Pin Money President Steve Milos made a very interesting report on the recent St. Louis bowling tournament. He didn't say very much about his team it was much more interesting to talk about the unexpected showing of the "Progress hot "shots" piloted by none other than the ever present John Yager. I know little about such things, but got the impression that it is considered to be the "scrub team" and still good enough to finish "in the mon ey," taking tenth place. Besides John the team consisted of Don Celich, Vince Polich, Ray Lisicich and Andrew Pavela. Saluta tions boys, and may you repeat many more times.

Why Our Society Must Face The Facts of Life (Continued From Page 9) operated by the Croatian Fraternal Union. The younger or prospective members of the organization, in addition to the financial se curity that can be realized by membership, would benefit from membership in an organ ization that is more finely in harmony with the value sys tem of the community at large, where the younger members primarily function. Indirectly, then, a college under the auspices of the o a i a n a e n a U n i o n would be a throbbing mem bership campaigner that would operate 365 days a year. Very Valuable Tool Sponsorship of a college would permit the organiza tion to deal with all groups on a common undertaking education.

It would serve to translate the organization's formal pro grams into effective mea sures, acting as a vanguard in generating enthusiasm and general acceptance for us in the non-Slavic elements of so ciety. No One Would Lose Our concern to this point has been with the benefits that the Croatian Fraternal Union would directly realize by the adoption of this new means. It is also significant to ask how a college would benefit the individual members di rectly, and organization indi rectly. Initially, this new means would assist the individual mon concern, the Croatian members in more fully devel Fraternal Union would be An educational institution cm the college level would pro-1 vide the organization with a valuable tool capable of gen erating and undertaking in ternal improvements, sugges tions, proposals, and critical oping those propelled into a position of that might otherwise remain prominence that would serve to attract and stimulate mem bership. OFFICIAL NOTICE TO ALL MEMBERS OF THE CROATIAN FRATERNAL UNION FROM THE CFU HIGH TRIAL BOARD All members of the Croatian Fraternal Union, her offi cers and lodges, are requested to note that Brother Stjepan Lipak, Secretary of the High Trial Board, left the United States on June 27th for an extended tour of Yugoslavia.

This would simply be an in vestment in our own people on the part of the Croatian Fraternal Union that promi* ses great returns in the fu ture. Above all, it would give genuine life to our persuasive motto: "All for One, One for All." Philanthropic Outlook Over the years, it appears that many of our member« have reached positions of suc cess in the business, and pro fessional world. We have failed, however, to erect a rallying point for such individuals towards which they might direct some of their success. None of the active frater nal activities that are now being carried on are so per vasive and universally rec ognized as to stimulate these same individuals te subscribe generous finan cial assistance to them. An educational institution would make available an op portunity for the expression of philanthropic acts. We would simply provide a natur al outlet for untapped re sources.
