In the parrallel bar event Sterk was opposed by twenty other competitors, ali veterans and graduates of the Falcon school. By his skillful slow motions ex- ercise on the parrallel bars, how- ever Joseph won the favor of the three judges and the large au- dience that vvatched this feature of Sunday’s meet and was prs- sented the gold medal, emblem- atic of the parrallel bar champ- ionship. He likevvise won a gold medal for his excellence on the horse, and won quite easily in a field of thirty inferior opponents. In competition for the horizontal far championship, Joseph gave a series of giant swings and rolls "hich seemed to please the people hit which did not meet with the approval of the judges who gave 'fe gold medal to Mr. Jack Vaj- eek of Pennsylvania an old and eeasoned parformer. Sterk, ne- 'ertheless, won the silver medal ht second plače over the other 'en entrants.

Directors of the Home offered the use of one of their rooms as a classroom for the stu- dents. Mr. Louis Seme on 1789 East 39th Street is the instructor of the students and he foretells an interesting hour for ali those who choose to attend. Every mother and father should urge their children to come to class and thereby obtain an idea and knovvl- edge of Slovene culture and Slo¬ vene tongue. ILLINOIS UNIVERSITT GRADUATE At the graduation exercises of the Illinois State University, Jo¬ seph Zalar Jr. son of the secre- tary of the KSKJ, was awarded a diploma as a Bachelor of Science študent. He is sojourning at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ray. Grdi¬ na in Cleveland at present. SLOVENE boy drowns Louis Heglar, 1 1 years old, re- siding at 14301 Thames Avenue, was drowned last Thursday June 2 at the White City Park Beach. His parents report that they did not allow him to go swimming, but after borrowing a pal’s bath- ing suit he went into the fateful waters. When he did not return at night, the police were notified and soon found the lad’s cloth- ing on the shore. They at once started to drag the lake for the unfortunate boy's body. DEATH TAKES YOUTH John Zuzek, 18 of Strabane, Pennsylvania failed to recover from a neck operation and suc- cumbed last week to the ravages of the disease after an illness of three months. ST. PHILIP NERI GRADUATES puhlic” a popular American Ma¬ gazine is extremely interested in the movement and has requested Mr. Louis Truger to submit an article explaining th e entire phase of the situation. With the thoroughness that the committee has set to work to spread the pro¬ paganda it is not surprising that such great results are coming in and that at the end it will ac- complish its purpose. Winding up the list of graduat¬ es of this year, we find that three Slovene girls graduated from the St. Philip Neri Commercial School. The Slovene bookkeepers Subdued! Mr. Louis M. Kolar certainly does not believe in National Hol- idays, especia]ly in Independence Day; for on the day s,et aside to celebrate Independence, he cele- brated by losing H:s freedom— when he married Miss Frances Marie Jeric. However he is en- tirely satisfied with the circum- stances. Mr. Louis M. Kolar is the editor of the ”New Era” Eng- lish section of the S.S.C.U. or¬ gan. Oh well, another editor gone wrong. Congratulations! [ORELS ENJOY OVERNIGHT PARTY At the Orel outing last Sun- day July 5th the members had such a raring good time that they forgot entirely that they were to return that night and slept out th e night in M'adison on Debe- vec’s hay loft. .Their failure to return that night upset the whole neighborhood, relatives worryin,g if anything happened to the ex- cursionists and the telephone ex- change vvires were kept hot by incessant calling of the anxious, and even the newspapers down- town were flooded with calls ask- ing if they had any report of a big accident at Madison. As it is no one will teli us the reason for th e extended night stay but rumors are floating around that the roads on return were muddy preventing the huge tnick from making the trip home. LORAIN PLANS SINGING ORGANIZATION Mr. Louis Seme has issued a call to the Slovene young men of Lorain who are interested in sing- ing to get together and organize a sorely needed singing society. It is Mr. Seme’s wish that the club be organized for the club would have the National Home at its dis- posal and moreover the lack of a ZARJA TO PARTICIPATE IN PLAIN DEALER FLOWER PAGEANT At the Plain Dealer Flower pageant which will be held this summer the singing society Zar¬ ja has t>een asked to help in the singing. As this is one of the highlights of the summer season for the whole of Northern Ohio it is a worthy distinction to be invited to sing at it. SLOVENE ENTERS NAVAL SCHOOL AT ANNAPOLIS William F. Petrovič, a bom Clevelander, merited the honor of being the first Slovene to be received into the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis. He obtained his elem!entary educa- tion at St. Vitus Parish School under the guidance of the sisters of Notre Dame and also at St. Mary’s School, West Park under the teaching of the Charity Si¬ sters. He completed his prepara- tory course at Collinwood High School. S L,OVENE INJURED While on a trip to Springfield Illinois from Virden, John Gori¬ čan was driven down by tvvo al- leged drunken drivers and was seriously injured. The automobile in which he was making his trip was completely demolished while he received a broken leg and several other internal injuries which will probably be a hin- drance to him ali his life.

Last July 4th, Miss Mary Piks of East 53rd Street was tendered a surprise party by her parents on Piks’ farm in Painesville Ohio.

On the way from Jesenice to Ljubljana all ; houses bore flags and at ali the places that the train stopped), huge throngs c^heared them. Ljubljana itself was decorated in flags and a huge throng was gathered at the- station to wel- come the travelers. When the tourists’ train came to the ter¬ minal a band was there to greet them with the National Anthem. The Americans stepped off and with Mr. Grdina at their head marched through the avenues which were banked by a huge crowd joyously throwing flowers on them. Ali the leading heads of the government were there to greet them and offered them the hospitality of the city and the country. A large parade then formed with two bands at its head which marched through the streets of Ljubljana to the Work- er’s Home where the Emmigrant Congress was to open. At ten o’clock in the morning with the hali filled to capacity the first session of the Emigrant Congress was opened. As a prin¬ cipal speaker Mr. Priče the Ame¬ rican Ambassador at Belgrade to Jugoslavia enthused over the con- vention. Then a telegram was sent to King Alexander and a cable- gram to President Hoover. After some more speeches, the meeting eleeted Presidents of the Congress and Mr. Anton Grdina was eleet¬ ed as one of its Presidents. The session then adjourned to con- tinue with a meeting at Zagreb. In the afternoon an elaborate banquet was tendered th e guests vvhich was attended by ali the Jugoslav elect. That afternoon at six the tourists were again given a huge ovation at the station as they left for Zagreb. Mr. Božidar Jakac accompanied them on this trip to film the proceedings with a movie camera. Slovene School to Hold Picnie Picnic On Mocilnikaps Farm Sunday to Be Gala Affair With Racing And Dancing Slovene School of tbe Slovene National Home will celebrate its respite from the classrooms with a picnic on Mocilnikar’s farm to be held this coming Sunday, June 12th. These annual picnics of th e Slovene Sfchool have become known as the liveliest and hap- piest picnics of the summer sea¬ son. Members of the com¬ mittee are always working earn- estly to provide an interesting and diversified program for their patrons in order to attract as many people to the affair as pos¬ sible, as this is the only occasion on which they are able to raise funds to rejmburse the treasury and in this way carry on the ex- pensive work of teaching through the winter month hundreds of children to love and speak their mother tongue.

Beginning with Sun- day, July 1 2, the Interlodge with its two newly formed divisions is starting anew. Ali previous wins and losses are to be forgotten, except in using them as records in comparing the strength of the clubs. The schedule as drawn, hy some strange coincidence. brings together four teams that met in the early opening games. Although, it must be made "clear that the schedule maker did not assign the games. This was left to the fate of chance, the names of the teams were vvritten on cards and Justine Post, a belle frorn Collinwood, drew them from a hat. Loyalites - Pioneers It will be remembered by the rabid Interlodge fans that the Pioneers edged th e champs of '31 in the season’s opener. This, however, is not a positive indica- tion that they shall do it again because the Loyalites (Jindrich Clothes) appear stronger at this vvriting than they were when they annexed the title. The Pioneer- men in view of their splendid record during the first round are the favorites to win. The S. N. P. J.’s on the other hand if they win, which is not at ali improb- able, will stamp thernselves as certain contenders. The fray is to be played at White City, M'on- day, with Makovic anidA Jarcke- wicz or Sodja as the duelists. The snappy receivers, Habian and Gryzbowski will supply th e gin- ger behind the bat as in their customary style. .Will Washingtons Win Agan? Another interesting contest is the one booked for Gordon Park Tuesday, bringing together the Glavan Geo. Washingtons and the Slov. Young Men’s Club. The former appears to be one of the weaker clubs in the upper brack- et. Nevertheless, like a worm that eventually turns the Cherry Tree Choppers surprised St. Clair and the nearby neighboring world when they easily defeated the S. Y. M. C.’s, a feat which is remarkable, for the reason that no other club won as handily. The G. W.’s have a great inner and outer defense but lack a strong pitching staff. Wieners Ku- bilus, their best moundsman, how- ever, has been coming along nice- ly and if he can hold up his end the team should be in the thick of it. The S. Y. M. C.’s heed no introduction. Everyone 'is ad- mitting they must be defeated by any and ali teims which as- pire to play in the autumnal class- ic.. The clubs may have a break due to Fr. Yerše’ sore arm which practically leaves the S. Y.'s with- out a dependable hurler. Their batting punch may overcome this handicap. This is to be seen be- fore the first trio of games is played. Orels - Comrades Wed. Playing before an almost cer¬ tain record crowd the Orelmen will attempt to reverse a previous defeat at the hands o ij the Com¬ rades (Globokar Real Estate). The Gymnasts contend their early loss was ali a mistake; that their aggregation clicking like it is now is going to give their former con- querers a better battle. Their pitching ace, Iggie Jeray, has been vorking splendidly and turning in a real bit of slab work. Iggie will have to extend himself be¬ cause facing him will be an array of hard hitters. The S. N. P. J.’s are just getting started, many of their veterans are pferking up. The hot weather and the serious- ness of the race wili find them like ali other clubs fighting hard. Second Group Interesting A very interesting experiment is the sub-dividing of the league which brings the four teams, not as skilled as the tipper six, in a championship fight of their own. The clubs are to play two rounds at the end of which the first and second will play for the cham¬ pionship of Group Two. A cup will be given the vvinner. Sunday morning at Ciordon Park thd Progressives will meet the Collinvvood Boosters. This should be a very good game. Gu¬ lič and Trebeč are the likely rnound choices. Betsy Ross may come to life now that ali previous games have been discarded. The Flagmaker’s first assignment is the tough Clair- wood outfit. The latter is the only near town club, the others hailing from Collinwood, Euclid and Nottingham. The probable date for the meeting of the two Comrades 9 - Betsy Ross 0 The Comrades pounded out a total -of fifteen hits, good for nine runs, in drubbing the Betsy Ross, 9 to 0. Jarc gave th e Flagmak- ers three hits, štručk out eleven and issued nine walks. Turk bagged three out of four to pace the winners. Habian clouted his second homer in as many games. Jarc'hit safely three out of five and Smole, Fabian and Zalokar each crashed two safetieg apiece. C. Starman connected safely twice, while Yasbec garnered the other hit. H.olowenko, granted fifteen hits, štručk out four and walked three. PIONEERS DEFEAT PROGRESSIVES The Pioneers finished the first round of Interlodge playing by easily defeating the Progressives, Wednesday evening in Gordon Park by the score of 10 - 1. Metz Cetinsky, on the mound for the Pioneers was never in any serious difficulty and permitted but two hits in the eight innings in which he worked. The Ione run for the Progressives was scored in the ninth inning off An- slow on an error and two infield hits. The feature of the game was the long home run poled out by Danny Pavlovič in the second in¬ ning with Barbič on base. The bali cleared the center-fielder and was one of the longest drives made on these grounds. CLAIRW00DS RALLV TO W1N, 6:5 —-- . . . - .

Two rounds in both divisions shall be played, at the end of which the second and third plače clubs will play one game to de¬ cide which is to play against the first plače team for the Interlodge likely to be Thursday. Origin- title. Although the Clairwoods are classed as a second division club, they have scored two unexpect- ed victories at the end of the first round. It seems they make a promise and keep it. Twice they have told their highly touted op- ponents that they were in for a drubbing and both times the S. D. Z. club made goocl. Their first victims were the Comrades, who fell by a 4 to 2 count. This de¬ feat should have served as a warning to other clubs not to take the youngsters too easily. And again the Clairwoods came thru. Conceded an eight to one chance against the G. W.’s the S. D. Z. youngsters after trailing through- out half the game by a 5 to 1 score, put on a spirited ninth in¬ ning rally that netted them five runs and victory. The Clairwoods were first to score talling but one marker in the opening frame, although they had the bags loaded twice. Strain- ic led with a single and advanced to third on Phillip’s double. J. Zupančič walked, filling the bricks. Kogoy flied to deep left field, Strainic easily scoring. Hro¬ vat walked again loading the paths, but Opalek tightened up and štručk out Novak and retired Zust on a long drive^ to center field. Opalek then nowed them down in order until the final frame. The G. W.’s scored in the third on Brezovar’s circuit clout and added two mor e in the 4th on one hit, one error, a walk and a sacrifice.
